This study looks at two types of hip implants used in total hip replacement for people whose cancer has spread to the hip bone. The goal is to see if one type (dual mobility liner) is as good as the other (constrained liner) at preventing the hip from popping out of place after s…

This study tests if robot-assisted kidney transplant surgery causes fewer serious problems (like bleeding or blood clots) within 30 days compared to standard open surgery. About 106 adults with kidney failure who need a transplant will be randomly assigned to one of the two metho…

This study looks at whether a structured exercise program, started right after surgery for colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver, can improve fitness and reduce the chance of the cancer coming back. About 66 participants will be split into three groups: standard care, st…

This study compares two treatments—microwave ablation and stereotactic body radiation therapy—for colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver in up to three spots. About 100 patients whose liver tumors cannot be surgically removed will be randomly assigned to one of the two tr…

This study tests whether empagliflozin, a drug used for diabetes, can help the heart recover better after aortic valve replacement. About 205 adults with severe aortic stenosis will receive either the drug or a placebo for 6 months after their procedure. The main goal is to see i…

This study will follow 300 people with Klinefelter syndrome over many years to learn more about their physical and mental health. Researchers will collect information from routine check-ups, including growth, hormone levels, bone health, and quality of life. The goal is to improv…

This study looks at whether people with COPD have less blood in their lungs than healthy people of the same age, sex, and height. Researchers will measure blood volume in the lungs and the whole body in 32 participants (16 with COPD and 16 healthy). The goal is to better understa…

This study uses advanced total-body PET scans to see how the body handles sugar and amino acids in healthy people and those with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). About 36 adults aged 18-70 will receive a radioactive tracer by mouth or IV and have scans to track nutrient…

This study follows 600 adult liver transplant recipients in Denmark for up to 10 years to track common health problems like heart, lung, kidney, and metabolic diseases. Researchers compare them with matched healthy people to find risk factors and improve long-term care. The goal …

This study looks at whether high-intensity interval training (HIIT) can help repair lung tissue in people with severe COPD who are waiting for lung volume reduction surgery. Twenty-four participants will be randomly assigned to either a HIIT exercise program or usual care. Resear…

This study tests whether closely monitoring for early signs of lymphedema (arm swelling) after breast cancer surgery and treating it right away can prevent long-term swelling. About 250 women who had lymph nodes removed will be randomly assigned to either the monitoring program o…

This study looks at whether taking mild painkillers like paracetamol or NSAIDs during pregnancy is linked to differences in brain development, behavior, and language in children aged 2 to 4. Researchers will follow 685 children from an existing study in Denmark, using parent ques…

This study looks at how blood cancers and stem cell transplants impact muscle function in 144 patients. Researchers want to see if muscle problems can help predict complications like infections, hospital stays, or survival. The goal is to better understand recovery and guide futu…

This study looks at whether a simple blood test that detects HPV DNA can find returning oropharynx cancer earlier than current methods like scans. Researchers will follow 200 patients who have finished treatment for HPV-positive oropharynx cancer. The goal is to see how accurate …
