Filter by:Seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) is a new strategy recommended by World Health Organization in 2012 for areas of highly seasonal transmission such as the Sahel. Although randomized controlled trials have shown SMC to be highly effective, evidence and experience from routine implementation of SMC has been lacking. For these reasons, we conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the coverage, adherence, and impact of SMC on malaria infection and disease and anemia when delivered through routine programs using existing community health workers in the Kayes region in Mali. Our evaluation used a pre-post design with cross-sectional surveys and abstraction of routine health information system data in an intervention district (Kita) where SMC was implemented through the health system, and a comparison district (Bafoulabe) where SMC was not implemented.
A multicenter, randomized, open-label, active-controlled Phase 3 study for the maintenance treatment of anemia in participants with dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (DD-CKD)
The main objective of the study is to compare the impact of oral ferric citrate compared to standard of care oral ferrous sulfate on serum iron, percent transferrin saturation, ferritin, hepcidin and hemoglobin levels in individuals with moderate to severe chronic kidney disease (CKD) and absolute iron deficiency.
The purpose of this study is to know the prevalence of iron deficiency (ID) and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) among pregnant women in Chinese urban district at present, and to analyze the epidemiological characteristics of ID/IDA and influencing factors.
The purpose of this multi-center event-driven study in participants with anemia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of daprodustat.
CARMEN is a national, real-world clinical registry of all adult patients with incident diagnosis of Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) or Autoimmune Hemolytic anemia (AIHA) patients in France. It is aimed at describing ITP and AIHA clinical features, assessing the real-world risk-benefit ratio of treatments and adherence to guidelines for ITP and AIHA management.
The purpose of this multi-center event-driven study in non-dialysis (ND) participants with anemia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of daprodustat compared to darbepoetin alfa.
Anemia of inflammation (AI) is a common comorbidity in hemodialysis patients. Paricalcitol is a selective vitamin D receptor activator with potential benefits on anti-inflammatory cytokines expression. The paricalcitol for the secondary hyperparathyroidism control may improve AI decreasing erythropoietin stimulating agents (ESAs) dosage.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether long-acting octreotide is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with Rendu-Osler-Weber (e.g. HHT). The study hypothesis is that octreotide is safe and will reduce transfusion requirements and endoscopy frequency in ROW patients with refractory anaemia due to bleeding gastrointestinal telangiectasias.
Anemia is the most common extraintestinal manifestation of IBD, occurring in 6 to 74 percent of patients. Most cases of anemia in IBD are due to iron deficiency (IDA) and to anemia of inflammation (AI). Although the ECCO diagnostic criteria for IDA are simple, and iron supplementation represents a cheap and usually effective treatment, many IBD patients with IDA are not properly treated. The inconsistent adherence, by many physicians, to treatment guidelines for IDA in IBD is often motivated by the belief that mild to moderate degrees of anemia may not have a significant impact on the patient's quality of life or do not represent the main clinical problem of the patient, that oral iron supplementation may adversely affect disease activity, and that parenteral iron administration may cause severe side effects. On this basis, we aim to perform a longitudinal, prospective, observational study whose main objective is the determination of the prevalence of anemia in IBD patients in Italy. Secondary objectives of the study are a) to investigate the pathogenesis of anemia in IBD, with a particular focus on the differential diagnosis between IDA and AI, and how disease activity, extension or behavior influence the relative frequency of IDA and AI; b) to verify the adherence to ECCO guidelines for the treatment of IDA in IBD (the proportion of patients with IDA that receive adequate iron supplementation); c) to administer dedicated questionnaires to the patients in order to measure the influence of anemia on fatigue and quality of life among IBD patients.
