Clinical trials

[peglem]

I frequently troll clinicaltrials.gov to see if there are any going on that might be appropriate for my daughter. In doing so, I come upon completed trials that I would love to see the results of. So, does anybody know how to figure out what Pubmed papers go with which clinical trials. There is one right now- completed in 2008 on IVIG for childhood schizophrenia that looks interesting.

I don't know, but I bet 'kim' would. she's heavy into pubmed. maybe pm her if she doesn't see this post.

I saw this trial as well and was very upset to see it actually! I dodn't want there to be any connection with IVIG and scizophrenia. I showed it to our ped on Thurs and told her that I couldn't find results either.

 

Is this the trial with 13 children? if not, I found one with 13 children done in 1997. Results not avail. The site said it had been updated around 2008. I, too, would love to see the results.

Thanks, Faith! I am waiting till she wakes up to make another judgement. But, I am thinking it is possible we might have seen some benefit. I will certainly post after the first time she is told no this morning. We are in Seattle (PST) so she is still asleep. Which is a good sign!!!!!

Here's the clinical trial I was talking about. http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT0000...enia&rank=1

 

It was specifically for childhood onset psychiatric disorders, but that included schizophrenia.

Schizophrenia is a scary word, but it is just a label for outward symptoms...those symptoms are scary, no matter what you call them.

Thanks, Kim. This study doesn't have any results listed, but at least now I know where to look for them!
