Filter by:This is a randomized (1:1), double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2 study to assess safety and efficacy of Total TQ Formula (3 g daily dose of Nigella Sativa Oil) capsules versus placebo in treating patients who have tested positive for novel Coronavirus 2019 (Covid-19) in the outpatient setting. Patients will be treated at a dose of 500 mg, 3 capsules, two times a day for 14 days from date of randomization. Quantitative viral load as measured by RT-PCR will be evaluated at baseline and on days 7 and 14. Covid-19 symptoms will be measured throughout the study using Modified FLU-PRO Plus.
The purpose of this study is to describe balance deficits in patients post COVID-19. The information the investigators learn may help influence balance training exercises for patients post-COVID-19. Participants will have a primary or secondary diagnosis of COVID-19 during hospitalization and off COVID-19 isolation and be receiving care in an acute inpatient hospital. Following consent, participants will complete balance assessments and questionnaires about balance and dizziness in a single session. Vital signs will be monitored during the session.The greatest risks of this study include shortness of breath, and a risk of falling or musculoskeletal soreness.These risks are no greater than those experienced during a usual physical therapy visit.
In order to assess the mother-to-infant and potential vertical transmission of SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnant women, maternal and neonatal biological samples will be prospectively collected from women with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 at participating hospitals across Ontario. Samples will be tested for the SARS-CoV-2 serology and viral load. Outcomes for the study objective will be ascertained through the collection and testing of biological samples from the mother and/or infant. Specifically the investigators will: 1. Assess maternal nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal swab, vaginal mucosa, ano-rectal swab, amniotic fluid, placenta (including subamniotic swab), breastmilk, cord blood and neonatal nasopharyngeal swab for RNA particles of coronavirus, by ddPCR. 2. Assess maternal serum for anti-coronavirus antibodies, by immunoassay. 3. Examine the impact of coronavirus on the neonate with respect to serology and viral load, in addition to placenta pathology findings and ddPCR. 4. Assess vertical transmission and the effect of coronavirus through placental pathology examination using placental pathology synoptic report.
To evaluate the analytical and clinical sensitivity and specificity of antigen tests performed as oropharyngeal swabs, outer nasal swabs, saliva swabs or breath tests including self-tests for SARS-CoV-2 towards standard RT-PCR testing. For each test 200 SARS-CoV-2 positive and 200 SARS-CoV-2 negative individuals previously defined by RT-PCR are tested. When tested an additional RT-PCR test is performed to verify status. Analytical sensitivity and specificity is determined on 210 SARS-CoV-2 positive samples with known Cq and 100 SARS-CoV-2 negative samples. 30 companies with a total of 55 tests participate in this nationwide study.
The aim was to determine the coronavirus anxiety levels and emotional eating status of cases with diagnosis of MetS according to diagnostic criteria published by the International Diabetic Federation (IDF) in 2005 and healthy individuals with similar BMI to MetS subjects.
Two randomized controlled trials will be conducted to examine the effect of a food supplement on proinflammatory cytokines and biomarkers in an adult population recently diagnosed with COVID-19 who are asymptomatic or experiencing only mild symptoms. The supplement, palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), is marketed under the trademarked product with increased bioavailability and format versatility: Levagen+™ (Gencor Pacific Limited, Irvine, CA). The supplement curcumin is marketed under the trademarked product with increased bioavailability: HydroCurc (Gencor Pacific Limited, Irvine, CA)
The purpose of this study is to learn how to better detect infection and understand how severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes lung disease and is spread. The novel device called PneumoniaCheck is a safe way to collect material from the lung from coughs. Study participants will collect cough specimens over a 24 hour period.
There are currently no precise data available on the impact of COVID-19 on the daily life of patients after hospitalization. For the moment, studies have only demonstrated a strong impact of the diagnosis on the domains of quality of life explored by the MOS-SF36 questionnaire and the PHQ-9 depression score. Concerning the impact of COVID-19 disease after conventional hospitalization, field reports indicate extremely intense fatigue and a major physical impact lasting several weeks
The aim of this study is to explore the relation between indicators of central sensitisation, quality of life and functional status in patients post covid-19 infection.
With the FDA's emergency use authorization declaration in December of 2020, the Pfizer-BioNtech vaccine became the first of several vaccines to kick off the mass vaccination effort across the United States against CoronaVIrus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Subsequently, Moderna as well as Johnson and Johnson both had vaccines receive emergency use authorization. While the Pfizer and the Moderna vaccines both utilize novel mRNA technology, Johnson and Johnson's vaccine uses a viral vector that has been used previously in both the approved European Ebola vaccine and a trial vaccine for HIV. However, none of these vaccine types have previously been approved in the United States. While preliminary data from safety and efficacy trials have shown positive results, actual-world data on its effectiveness is still lacking. Several small cohort studies and one large trial from Israel are currently the only insights into the actual rates of infection, hospitalization, and severe illness among vaccinated individuals. As COVID-19 variants, with the potential to reduce vaccine efficacy, continue to emerge worldwide, there is a need of more data regarding the real-world effectiveness of our current mass vaccination efforts. Vaccination efforts in the State of Michigan have been ongoing since December 2020. Given that approximately 33.7% of the state's population is either partially or fully vaccinated, it is unclear why the number of cases has risen so dramatically or if immunization efforts can help the situation. Given the current situation in the State of Michigan, this study will evaluate the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccination on rates of hospital visits and severe illness when breakthrough Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection occurs in a region with high incidence of variant strain disease.
