This trial tests whether dapagliflozin (Farxiga), a drug originally developed for diabetes, can protect kidney function in people who have received a heart transplant. Kidney failure is a common and serious complication after heart transplant. The study involves 430 participants …

This study tests whether a specially designed app can help women who had high blood pressure or diabetes during pregnancy get the recommended heart check-ups after giving birth. About 400 women from Oslo University Hospital will either use the app or receive standard care. The go…

This study compares two treatments for colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver: surgical removal of tumors versus a less invasive needle ablation procedure guided by 3D imaging. 230 patients are randomly assigned to one of the two treatments. The goal is to see if ablation…

This study looks at two ways to treat serious shoulder fractures in people aged 65 to 85: a reverse total shoulder replacement (surgery) or non-surgical care like a sling and physical therapy. The goal is to see which approach leads to better arm and shoulder function and quality…

This study is testing a urine test called BladMetrix to see if it can detect bladder cancer returning after surgery. 500 adults with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer will provide urine samples during routine follow-up visits over 2 years. The test's accuracy will be compared to…

This study tests whether a virtual version of the Body Project, a body acceptance program, can prevent eating disorders in 441 young women aged 16-25 who have body image concerns. Participants are randomly assigned to either the Body Project or an educational control group. The p…

This study tests whether a self-management program led by a physiotherapist can reduce pain and improve function in people with greater trochanteric pain syndrome (chronic hip pain). 110 adults aged 18-70 with hip pain for over 3 months will be randomly assigned to either the sel…

This study tests a psychological treatment called Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) for people with chronic widespread pain, including fibromyalgia. PRT teaches patients that pain can come from 'stuck' brain patterns and helps them retrain their brain to stop sending false pain ala…

This study tests a small sensor placed in reconstructed tissue after flap surgery. The sensor measures CO2 and temperature continuously for up to 10 days to detect early signs of poor blood flow. If it works, doctors could be alerted sooner and take action to save the tissue. Abo…

This study tests a small sensor placed in the muscle of a replanted arm or leg after traumatic amputation. The sensor continuously measures carbon dioxide and temperature to detect blocked blood flow early. If a problem is found, doctors can quickly operate to restore blood flow.…

This study tests a new monitoring method for patients who have had pancreatic surgery. After surgery, a thin probe is placed near the surgical connection to measure chemicals that may signal a leak before symptoms appear. Half of the 201 participants will receive this monitoring …

This study investigates chronic mesenteric ischemia, a condition where blood flow to the gut is reduced, causing pain. Researchers will measure oxygen levels in the stomach and small intestine using a special scope before and after treatment. The goal is to better understand the …

This study is testing whether women with high-risk pregnancies can be safely monitored from home instead of staying in the hospital. Researchers will check if home monitoring is practical, safe, and costs less, while also improving patients' quality of life. About 250 pregnant wo…

This study was designed to see if a special breathing technique called isocapnic hyperventilation could help remove methanol from the blood of poisoned patients, similar to dialysis. Researchers planned to give the antidote fomepizole and use a breathing device while measuring me…
