To evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous (IV) ferumoxytol compared with placebo for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia (IDA).
This multicenter, prospective, observational study will evaluate the quality of life and the factors that influence the quality of life of epoetin beta [Neorecormon] in patients with renal chronic anemia, who are on dialysis. For each eligible patient data will be collected for 6 months. Target sample size is 5000-7000 patients.
Rationale: Chemotherapy with fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and anti-thymocyte globulin may induce the engraftment cross the immunologic barrier in the setting of HLA-haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. In addition, depletion CD3±CD19 cells may contribute to prevent developing severe acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) in haploidentical transplantation. Purpose: This phase I/II trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and antithymocyte globulin with CD3±CD19 depleted graft from haploidentical donors in treating patients with aplastic anemia.
The study is designed to determine the effects of an investigational drug Monofer in subjects with non-dialysis dependent chronic kidney disease (NDD-CKD) subjects and with iron deficiency anaemia (IDA).
Military personnel face intense physical and cognitive demands. Diminished iron status affects physiologic responses to these challenges. Both cross-sectional and longitudinal studies indicate a significant decrement in iron status in enlisted female military personnel immediately following basic combat training (BCT). Decrements in iron status are associated with diminished cognitive and physical performance, and may affect body composition. The primary objective of this randomized, placebo controlled study is to assess the utility of an iron-containing food product for maintaining iron status during BCT. This study will provide insight into the utility and efficacy of an iron-containing food product for the maintenance of iron status during military training. Furthermore, it will provide novel scientific data regarding the relationship between iron status and physical and cognitive performance in female Soldiers.
The research questions to be answered by this study are: 1. Is treatment with iron more effective at improving anemia if given at the time of a malaria episode or 1 month after the episode? 2. Which treatment timing is associated with more malaria episodes - 1 month delayed treatment or immediate treatment at the time of malaria? 3. Does timing of iron treatment affect later thinking processes and behavior?
The aim of this study is to determine if providing iron and a mixture of DHA and EPA, alone and in combination, to children with iron deficiency and poor n-3 fatty acid intake will improve their cognitive performance, activity levels and immune system. Additionally, the effects on iron and fatty acid status, and gut microbiota, will be assessed.
MiroCam® is the new video capsule endoscope of IntroMedic®. By using a novel transmission technology it promises a longer battery life expectancy with consequential impact on the length of the video recorded for diagnostic evaluation. As the investigators know about the shortcoming of battery life expectancy from many capsule examinations that were inconclusive because the ileocaecal transit was not filmed, the investigators would appreciate to have a capsule with extended video recording to improve the diagnostic yield of capsule examinations. Therefore the investigators want to compare MiroCam® to our routinely used Olympus® Enteropro EndoCapsule® in the context of a half-year clinical trial. Focussing on the total video length as well as on the rate of video-recorded ileocaecal transitions as surrogate parameters the investigators want to find out whether one of the two products provides superior diagnostic information in order to reduce the amount of inconclusive examinations.
The purpose of this study is to determine if prophylactic cotrimoxazole makes severe anemia or neutropenia more common in infants exposed to maternal HIV and combination antiretroviral therapy.
