Since the beginning of the year 2020, clinical characteristics of a new disease as the global COVID-19 epidemic has spread in France. People over 70 years of age are the more concerned by this virus in proportion and in gravity with some atypical first symptoms compared to younger patients. Evolution of the disease is variable from forms with few symptoms to severe forms sometimes quickly lethal. GERICOVID LYON is a descriptive analysis of all patients over 70 years of age hospitalised for COVID-19 in short geriatric unities of University Hospital of Lyon This study will allow more comprehension about COVID-19 in older people. The role of predictive factors, pre-existing comorbidities and the nature and frequency of complications in a short period will be investigate. Treatments practices will be analysed too.
Evaluation of immunogenicity and safety of inactivated COVID-19 vaccine (BBIBP-Cov) coadministered with rabies vaccine.
This study will be a single center, Phase I, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, single and multiple ascending dose (SAD/MAD) study evaluating the safety, tolerability, and PK of Delcetravir after administration via oral inhalation in healthy subjects.
There is a considerable variability in aldosterone levels between individuals, and this may explain the wide variability in disease severity among those infected so we designed a pilot study to test for the safety and efficacy of fludrocortisone addition to standard of care in hospitalised COVID-19 patients.
Post-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome (PACS), colloquially known as Long COVID, is a prevalent phenomenon that affects thousands of Veterans in VA care. VA patients suffering from Long COVID not only experience lingering physical symptoms following COVID-19 infection, but have increased mental health problems including sleep disorders, anxiety disorders, trauma and stress-related disorders as well as increased use of opioid and non-opioid pain medications, antidepressants, and sedatives to treat these conditions. Developing recovery-oriented care, "a process of change through which individuals improve their health and wellness, live a self-directed life, and strive to reach their full potential" is a VA priority, however available Long COVID treatments primarily target symptom relief and are not designed to promote the recovery and rehabilitation of Veterans in a mental health context. Long COVID Coping and Recovery (LCCR) is a promising manualized, recovery-focused psychotherapeutic group intervention which aims to improve psychological adjustment to Long COVID symptoms, promote resilience, and facilitate coping, based on established psychotherapeutic techniques such as skills training, acceptance-based and identity-based principles. The investigators will assess rates of recruitment, intervention engagement, and session attendance (feasibility), Veteran satisfaction (acceptability), treatment adherence (fidelity) and preliminarily explore response to Long COVID Coping and Recovery (LCCR). Findings will be used to make a final adaptation of the treatment materials and to develop a research protocol for a large scale RCT of LCCR for Veterans with Long COVID. This study will pilot test a well-specified, group-based intervention tailored to the unique needs of Veterans with Long COVID. The results of the proposed study will provide data to 1) identify adaptations needed to optimize LCCR for Veterans with Long COVID; 2) identify possible benefits of LCCR; 3) inform development of a large scale RCT of LCCR for Veterans with Long COVID.
Aerobic exercise - Nordic walking in Persistent Covid (PC) vs. healthy controls. The main objective of this study is to analyse the genes associated with increased physical performance in patients with PC vs. healthy controls and to measure the level of lactic acid in blood, pre and post exercise session in patients affected by PC. Relevance: It is intended to be a tool for patients with CP who have not been hospitalised, nor have been offered outpatient rehabilitation treatment. They have not recovered their work, family, sporting or leisure functions. They have particular problems in returning to aerobic exercise. We think that they may need to be accompanied in the recovery of their physical condition under the supervision of health professionals. Most of the studies offered to them are exploratory, not intervention. Our proposal is a 12-week intervention. Our proposal, delves into the mechanisms that may underlie their fatigue and their problems in returning to aerobic exercise, in order to collaborate in approaching possible solutions. Secondary objectives: To study in each of the patients with persistent covid, included in the aerobic Nordic walking programme, their DNA in order to, based on two candidate genes, analyse the role of genetic polymorphisms associated with increased VO2 max training, compared to a healthy control group. To assess the blood lactic acid level pre and post exercise in a group of patients with persistent covid pre and post aerobic Nordic walking programme. Patients and Methods: 33 patients with CP and 33 healthy controls will follow a Nordic walking programme for 12 weeks. QIAGEN Cube automatic extractor and lactic acid meter will be used.
People who sit uninterrupted for prolonged periods time have been shown to have poorer cardiovascular health compared to those that regularly interrupt it (e.g. standing up and moving). Cognition and brain function has also been shown to be impaired following uninterrupted sitting. Research has shown that interrupting sitting with exercise improves cardiovascular health in healthy men and women cognition, feeling of fatigue and cerebral oxygenation. Low intensity physical activity can help people with Long coronavirus disease (COVID) by reducing feelings of fatigue. Individuals with long COVID have symptoms such as fatigue and brain fog. As such, people with long COVID may spend more time sitting during the day and demonstrate worsened cardiovascular and cognitive health. As such, there may be greater levels of cognitive decline and worsened cardiovascular health outcomes. In this study the investigators are interested in assessing the cardiovascular health and brain function of people with (and without) long COVID before and after uninterrupted and interrupted sitting. Interruptions will be every 30 minutes during a 120 minute sitting period. Interruptions are self-paced and include up to three minutes of walking, five heel raises and five sit-to-stands at each interruption. To ensure external validity of the project, all interruptions are functional activities which can be reproducible in a home environment. Vascular health and cognitive function will be assessed before and after the interrupted and uninterrupted trials. Eligible participants will be aged over 18 years, have displayed symptoms of long COVID for more than 4 weeks, and have been diagnosed with long COVID via their GP or through a long COVID clinic. Involvement in the study will include three visits to a physiology laboratory at the University of Winchester or University of Gloucestershire. Involvement can be expected to last up to 40 days to account for the necessary time required between laboratory visits.
This study aimed at testing the effectiveness of a longitudinal intervention in increasing college students' intention to seek mental help during the pandemic.
This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized (3:1), placebo- controlled, parallel-group, double-blind trial. Patients will be randomized into two arms of treatment: - Placebo + SoC (N=30) - NanoManganese® + SoC (N=90) Patients will be treated and followed-up for 10 days: - Arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) will be measured at baseline and at days 3, 5 and 10, - Oxygen saturation, vital signs including respiration rate, pulse rate, blood pressure and body temperature, disease severity (7-point ordinal scale and NEWS2 score) will be measured at baseline and daily, - Hematology and biochemistry measurements will be done at baseline and at day 3, 5 and 10, - Pharmacokinetic (Blood Mn concentration) measurements will be done at baseline and at day 3, 5 and 10, - Biomarkers will be measured at baseline and at day 3, 5 and 10. At the end of the 10-day treatment period, a follow-up visit will be planned between day 15 and day 22. The following. assessments/examinations will be performed: oxygen saturation, vital signs including respiration rate and body temperature, disease severity (7-point ordinal scale and NEWS2 score), electrocardiogram (ECG), hematology, biochemistry, concomitant therapies, and adverse events.
