Filter by:Direct constitution of collections from various samples taken on a prospective cohort of healthy volunteers, to prepare human biological samples of known characteristics (biochemical and serological in particular) and quality controlled.
This study evaluates the presence and quantity of non-caloric sweeteners in newborns umbilical cord blood, and in their mother's breast milk at delivery, at 2 months, 4 months and 6 months of age. Microbiota composition will be evaluated in milk and in feces of both mother and child.
The purpose of this protocol is to determine the difference in clearance of Mycoplasma genitalium (MG) when using the Australian management protocol versus the current Centers of Disease Control (CDC) treatment guidelines for US standard of care (SOC), to determine the proportion of men from the Deep South, with NGU attributable to MG, and to determine the proportion of MG cases that harbor the macrolide-resistance associated with mutation.
As an alternative biomarker of intrahepatic covalently closed circular DNA(cccDNA) transcriptional activity, hepatitis B virus(HBV)RNA may evolve during long-lasting virus-host interactionsduring chronic hepatitis B viral infection.The distribution pattern of serum HBV RNA levels in the natural course of chronic HBV infection remains unclear. Furthermore,serum HBV RNA was associated with response to NAs. So it may be another clinical surrogate marker for intrahepatic cccDNA level after long-term NAs treatment and be used to monitor NAs therapy. The aim of this study was to evaluate thelevels of HBV RNA during the natural courseof CHB and the role in distinguishingthe natural phases of HBV infection and to investigate whether serum HBV RNA level at the end of long-term NAs treatment had a similar or better predict effect on off-therapy relapse than serum HBsAg titer.
The primary objective of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of HS-10234 versus tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) in treatment-naive and treatment-experienced adults with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.
Postoperative infections are a common complication. A relationship between perioperative severe hyperglycemia and postoperative infections has been found in patients undergoing craniotomy. The aim of this study is to evaluate the epidemiology of intraoperative severe hyperglycemia (BGC >180 mg/dL; 10 mmol/L) and postoperative infections (wound, urinary and prosthetic joint infection) and to investigate if severe intraoperative hyperglycemia is associated with an higher risk of early postoperative (within the 7th postoperative days) infections (wound, urinary and prosthetic joint infection).
This study aims to identify the aetiology of childhood meningitis in Southwestern Uganda and develop and evaluate new methods for point-of-care diagnosis of childhood meningitis in a low-income setting. A prospective observational study including 600 children aged 0-12 years will be conducted during 1 year in Mbarara, Uganda. We estimate to recruit about 300 children with suspected meningitis (cases), and 300 with non-severe infection age-matched as controls.
endTB-Q Clinical Trial is a Phase III, randomized, controlled, open-label, non-inferiority, multi-country trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of two new, all-oral, shortened regimens for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) with fluoroquinolone resistance.
A national data registry of patients receiving the rescue fecal microbiota transplantation for the refractory intestinal infections from the China Microbiota Transplantation System was designed to assess the short-term and long-term safety and efficacy.
The NASCITA study (NAscere e creSCere in ITAlia) was created to improve the understanding of the health status of Italian children early on and how it is affected by social and health determinants. The study will evaluate physical, cognitive, and psychological development, and health status and health resource use during the first six years of life in a group of newborns, as well as potential associated factors. The association between the well-being of children and parental adherence to the recommendations for better child care and development will also be assessed. Information on the children will be collected by paediatricians mostly during routine visits. The findings will be used in the development of specific prevention measures and interventions to improve the health of children, in particular more vulnerable ones.
