Siriraj glaucoma survey completes in Bangkok; BASIC-S vascular pilot not yet recruiting in Ontario

Two unrelated studies posted this week: a completed Bangkok glaucoma prevalence survey and a not-yet-recruiting Ontario lifestyle trial for vascular risk reduction.

This week's registry postings cover two separate, unaffiliated studies with no drug or device approvals involved.

  • The "Bangkoknoi Model Project" eye study, sponsored by Siriraj Hospital, is listed as completed. A total of 1,470 participants aged 50 years and older were recruited from community clusters in the Bangkoknoi district between April and August 2024.1 The study ran from an actual start of April 1, 2024, with study completion recorded as January 29, 2025, and the record was first posted August 13, 2026.
  • The "BASIC-S Feasibility Study," sponsored by Andrew Appleton with the Academic Medical Organization of Southwestern Ontario as collaborator, is listed as not yet recruiting. It is a single-center, mixed-methods, cluster-randomized pilot trial evaluating the feasibility of the BASIC-S protocol in an occupational setting, with a maximum of 60 households (120 participants) to be randomized 1:1 to either the BASIC-S intervention or standard care.2 The estimated start date is October 1, 2026, with primary completion estimated for July 1, 2027.
