NCT01671423
Cellulitis is the medical term for an infection of the skin, with symptoms including redness, swelling, warmth, and pain. This group of symptoms is called inflammation, and is caused by the body's immune system responding to the infection. Standard care for cellulitis is using antibiotics to destroy the infection, but the inflammation can persist and cause a great deal of pain. The hypothesis of this study is that adding a single dose of an oral steroid (prednisone), which tempers the immune response, will reduce inflammation, reduce pain, and speed recovery. This hypothesis will be examined by recruiting a group of patients with cellulitis, and randomizing them to two sub-groups: one group will receive a dose of prednisone, while the other group will receive a placebo. Neither group will know what they received unless there is a problem. These subjects will be followed up at the 48 hour mark and the 7 day mark, and will have their results compared.
NCT00413010
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of pregabalin as compared to placebo in the treatment of patients with general anxiety disorder (GAD). Efficacy will be measured by the improvement in the total Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) scores from baseline observed following 8 weeks of double-blind treatment or at earlier termination during the double-blind treatment phase and analyzed using a mixed linear model for repeated measures.
