Filter by:The prospective, longitudinal, open observational study monitors patients with cognitive and neuropsychological symptoms after COVID-19 infection, in a longitudinal manner to see how the disease has affected their physical, psychological and cognitive function, their ability to be active, return to work, their health-related quality of life in correlation with potential diagnostic and prognostic markers.
This study aims to present data on the improvement of Quality of life (QoL), biological rhythms, anxiety, depressive symptoms and the correlations between QoL and biorhythms following an e-health psychoeducational intervention for Bipolar Disoirder (BD) during Covid-19 pandemic
Background: To evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on evaluations in the pediatric emergency department (ED) because of headache as main symptom. Methods: Number and clinical features of patients evaluated in the pediatric ED of a single site in Milan,Italy, were collected between January 2017 and January 2022. The impact of COVID-19 on evaluation rates was quantified by using the incidence rate ratio (IRR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) between the pandemic (March 2020 to January 2022) and the prepandemic period (January 2017 to February 2020).
Background. Seizures are a common cause of evaluation in the pediatric emergency department (ED). Several studies about the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on ED attendances report a considerable reduction in general pediatric care. The aim of our study was to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on the admission to the pediatric ED for seizures. Materials and methods. We performed a retrospective study to assess the rate of ED admission for seizures at the pediatric ED of the Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico of Milan between January 2017 and December 2021, comparing the pre-pandemic (from January 2017 to February 2020) and pandemic periods (from March 2020 to December 2021).
The goal of this double-blind, interventional, randomized case-control, pilot trial is to evaluate the effects of active sulfurous (STW) versus placebo (SDW) inhalations on blood test parameters, serum inflammatory cytokines, spirometry data, as well as qualitative and quantitative changes in the nasal microbiome of subjects affected by long Covid. The main questions it aims to answer are: - if STW inhalations are effective on respiratory issues due to long covid compared to the placebo inhalation (SDW) - if STW inhalations are effective on long covid related fatigue issues compared to the placebo inhalation (SDW) - if H2S inhaled with STW is effective in modulating (decreasing) cytokines which are related to long covid cytokine storm compared to placebo inhalation with no H2S (SDW) - if STW inhalation modify nasal microbiome both from a qualitative and quantitative point of view respect to placebo inhalation (SDW) Participants will be randomly assigned to active inhalations (STW) or placebo inhalations (SDW) arm and subjected to 12 consecutive sessions of 20 minutes. Both arms will be tested for: - cytokines and inflammatory markers concentration (IL1b, IL6, ACE, GSS, S100B, Hs-CRP) - spirometry (resting, forced, DLCO) - exertion response (6 minutes walking test) - nasal microbiome sampling at visit 1 (enrolment), at visit 2(right after the inhalation treatment) and at visit 3 (3 months after treatment). Researchers will compare results reported by STW to those of SDW group to see if significative differences are detectable.
These studies offer valuable insights into the potential development of KGR as a novel herbal-based preventive and therapeutic strategy against COVID-19.
The CDC describes Post-acute sequelae of SARS-COV-2 infection (PASC) for the wide range of physical and mental health consequences experienced by some patients. These sequelae may be present four or more weeks after SARS-COV-2 infection, including patients who had initial mild or asymptomatic acute infection. However, there is complete absence of data whether chronic sleep changes due to COVID-19 infection may influence these physical and mental health consequences. While fatigue is one of the common post-COVID conditions, there are no systematic examinations of sleep disturbances in COVID-19 survivors. This will be a pilot observational retrospective and prospective cohort study, to systematically assess if sleep disturbances and severity of sleep apnea comprise a modifiable facet of PASC as well as the short-term and longer-term effects of COVID-19 infection itself on sleep, cognitive function, exercise capacity and lung function.
The goal of this Phase 3 study is to compare the effectiveness, safety, and side effects of the CIC vaccine with approved flu vaccines and the Novavax COVID-19 Vaccine with adjuvant.
Ocular injuries, a significant contributor to avoidable blindness globally, impact approximately 55 million individuals each year. Prompt initial treatment is vital for improving vision, yet the scarcity of skilled eye specialists often results in overcrowding at advanced medical centers. Moreover, the COVID-19 outbreak has introduced distinct factors into the management of ocular trauma. This research investigated the epidemiology of ocular injuries during the pandemic and offered observations on the distinctive hurdles and trends encountered.
The purpose of this study is to collect information on the: - general information of a group of people such as their age, sex - clinical information of the patients such as any other illness before having COVID 19. - the number of COVID-19 patients who meet and follow the most up to date World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations for medication to treat COVID-19 (such as version 14, published 10Nov2023) compared to Kingdom of Bahrain national recommendations - adult COVID-19 patients' health care resource use and outcomes within the 28-day period In adult patients with COVID-19 who have been prescribed nirmatrelvir and ritonavir treatment. This study will be conducted in the Kingdom of Bahrain. The study will capture information of the adult COVID-19 outpatients and inpatients who have been prescribed nirmatrelvir, ritonavir treatment and those not treated with nirmatrelvir, ritonavir. This study will have about 3000 patients treated with Paxlovid™ therapy and 1000 were not. The study will involve collection of patient information from medical records. The information collected can be either from papers or from computers. The study will include patient information of those who: - had COVID-19 infection during the study period from 16 February 2022 to 30 November 2022. - are 18 years of age or older. This study will help to inform decision-making on use of Paxlovid at the national level.
