This study looks at whether eating more protein (25% of daily calories) helps children aged 7-14 with overweight or obesity lose more weight than a lower-protein diet. Over 10 weeks, kids follow a calorie-restricted diet and exercise program, then are followed for a year. The goa…

This study compares a new, wire-free pacemaker (Micra AV) to a standard pacemaker with wires in adults aged 75 and older who have a slow heart rhythm (AV block). The goal is to see which device improves quality of life, patient acceptance, and exercise ability. Eighty participant…

This study compares two types of knee surgery for people with arthritis only behind the kneecap. One surgery replaces just the kneecap joint, the other replaces the whole knee. Researchers will track 100 patients for up to 10 years to see which surgery leads to better quality of …

This study looks at how well a weight-loss program works for children and teens with obesity. About 700 kids aged 2 to 18 who are overweight will take part in a program run by their local municipality or hospital. The goal is to help them lose weight and build healthier habits du…

This study looks at whether a simple blood test that checks for tumor DNA can help decide which patients with diverticulitis (a colon inflammation) actually need a colonoscopy to rule out colorectal cancer. Researchers will collect blood from 220 patients and compare the test res…

This study tests whether a fecal transplant (FMT) can safely improve chronic diarrhea in people with systemic sclerosis, an autoimmune disease. Twenty adults will receive either FMT or a placebo, and researchers will track side effects and symptom changes. The goal is to see if t…

This study compares a partly home-based exercise program focused on hip strengthening to standard rehabilitation for people who have had a second hip replacement. About 84 adults will participate for 16 weeks. The goal is to see if the new program improves physical function and r…

This study compares two treatments for people with severe shoulder arthritis: shoulder replacement surgery followed by rehab, or a 12-week exercise program. The goal is to see which approach better reduces pain and improves shoulder function. About 100 adults aged 55-85 who are e…

This study tests whether 6 months of supervised strength exercises can improve hip-related quality of life more than usual care for people with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS), a common cause of hip pain. About 120 adults aged 18-50 with hip pain lasting at least 3 m…

This study tests a 7-week group program led by trained peers (not doctors) to help cancer survivors reduce anxiety and depression after finishing curative treatment. 234 adults in Denmark who completed cancer treatment within the past year and have mild-to-moderate symptoms are t…

This study looks at whether small meals, like dairy or banana, can reduce bone loss in postmenopausal women with osteopenia (low bone density). Thirteen women will try five different meals and compare them to fasting. The goal is to find a simple, non-drug way to support bone hea…

This study looks at why some people get long-lasting headaches after a mild concussion and tests a new treatment called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), which uses magnetic pulses to stimulate the brain. Researchers will measure headache days, blood markers, a…

This study looks at how a mother's health affects the makeup of her breast milk, and how that might influence her baby's metabolism and gut bacteria. Researchers are collecting milk, blood, and urine samples from 168 mothers and their infants in Denmark. The goal is to better und…

This study looks at 67 people in Denmark who had early-stage colorectal cancer removed during a colonoscopy or minor surgery. Doctors often recommend more surgery because of certain risk factors, but only about 15% of patients actually have leftover cancer. The researchers are te…

This study looks at finger joints from people with rheumatoid arthritis who need joint replacement surgery. Researchers use advanced scans and tissue samples to see how bone damage happens. The goal is to learn more about the tiny blood vessels and pores in the bone that may be l…

This observational study follows 2900 adults in Denmark who had radiotherapy for non-melanoma skin cancer on the head or neck at least two years ago. Researchers want to learn how satisfied patients are with how their skin looks, what skin changes doctors see, and how many people…

This study follows 300 fetuses and children with sex chromosome disorders to track their growth, organ development, and overall health. Researchers will also look at genetic and gut microbiome factors to understand how these conditions affect children over time. The goal is to ga…

This study looks at whether a simple blood test can find tiny bits of cancer DNA left behind after surgery for colorectal cancer. Over 3,000 patients who had their cancer removed will give blood samples to see if the test can predict who is at high risk of the cancer coming back.…
