This is a randomized, open-label, active-controlled, parallel, multicenter, phase IV clinical study evaluating the efficacy and safety of switching Metformin+SGLT2-i+DPP4-i to Metformin+SGLT2-i+TZD in patients with type 2 diabetes.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if whole-cell Streptococcus pneumoniae (wSp) vaccination is safe and tolerated in healthy adults. The main aim is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of wSp vaccine. Researchers will compare wSp vaccinated participants with placebo…

The research will produce clinical effectiveness performance metrics using standardised procedures of the Nuance Audio hearing device.

The purpose of this research study is to assess whether morning bright light therapy (BLT) using a wearable device called a Re-Timer could potentially improve Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) symptoms and decrease intestinal permeability (leaky gut). Morning bright light therapy wi…

Infertility is a globally significant medical condition, profoundly impacting individuals and couples both emotionally and physically. The multifaceted nature of in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment demands active patient participation, with engagement playing a pivotal role in…

This study is being conducted to assess two imaging methods-central microperimetry and radial OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography)-in patients with Geographic Atrophy (GA) or those who are at risk of developing this condition. The study team is trying to determine whether these met…

The goal of this project is to establish the technical feasibility of a scalable, integrated platform to improve patient informed decision-making and increase vaccine uptake and to evaluate the effectiveness of the integrated platform to improve vaccine uptake.

This observational study aims to investigate the changes in serum amino acid metabolism before and after bariatric surgery in obese individuals. Blood samples will be collected from 50 patients at baseline (preoperative), and at 1 and 3 months postoperatively. An additional 50 he…

Single-shot pulsed-field ablation (PFA) catheters maximize pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) efficiency but are limited for focal or linear ablation. The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a novel, PFA catheter that transitions between large '…

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of hydroxytyrosol 10 mg/day administered for 4 weeks in pregnant individuals with hypertension. This study will assess whether hydroxytyrosol increases serum superoxide dismutase levels, reduces uterine artery Doppler p…
