Scarce information exists in relation to the effect of supplementation of Vitamin D3 in SARS-COV-2 infection, H1N1, and A, B Influenza when 25-hydroxyvitamin levels are between 20-100ng/ml. This study will evaluate the effect of supplementation of vitamin D3 vs. dietary-hygiene measures in SARS-COV-2 , H1N1, A, B Influenza infection rate in patients with serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels >20ng/ml. A comparative randomized study that will evaluate the effect of a monthly supplementation with 52000 units of Vitamine D3 during three months vs hygienic-dietary measures in the development of respiratory infections such as COVID-19, H1N1, A, B Influenza during 6 months of follow-up in health workers from a hospital in Northern Mexico with serum vitamin D values +/- 20ng/ml. Also, patients that during screening have 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels <20 ng/ml will receive vitamin D supplementation according to primary care discretion for three months and will be followed for 6 months and infection rate will be analyzed and compared.
The purpose of this study is to document the safety of taking traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in patients with COVID-19 and to gain information to determine whether a study with TCM can be conducted. The study will test a traditional Chinese medicine that has been made into a granule formulation called Xuanfei Baidu Granules.
The corona virus disease (COVID) pandemic has highlighted the importance of rapid, readily available screeners and diagnostics to identify infected individuals. Recent studies have demonstrated that portable electronic nose sensing devices can detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These compounds are end products of human metabolism or of enteric bacteria and are excreted through the skin or exhaled breath. Importantly, the sensing devices can be adapted into a wearable device providing continuous monitoring. Our goal is to develop a battery-free, electronic nose sensor to serve as a screener and detect VOC patterns associated to patients with symptomatic and asymptomatic COVID-19 without being invasive. To test the screening ability, devices will be worn by COVID-19 positive and negative patients hospitalized at Nebraska Medicine.
This study aims to assess how an at-home COVID-19 frequent testing regimen using the CoV-SCAN test kit and a paired phone application to help interpret the test result compares to once-a-week or three-times-a-week polymerase chain reaction (PCR) (molecular) testing to identify a SARS-CoV-2 infection. Employees and cast members at Media and Entertainment Company and its affiliates will be recruited to test whether frequent use of CoV-SCAN will perform as well or better than weekly molecular testing and at least as well as three-times-a-week molecular testing.
This placebo controlled study is intended to generate safety and efficacy data in order to provide a treatment option for COVID-19 in patients with a high risk of disease progression based on age or co-morbid medical conditions.
Studying clinical characterization of critically ill COVID-19 patients in a single center Studying Risk factors for Day 28 Mortality in COVID-19 patients admitted to intensive care unit
Among all MM patients included in the cohort at the time of diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection, blood samples will be collected at inclusion, at time of the infection acute phase in the most severe cases (when admitted in intensive care units), and at recovery. The following immune function tests will be evaluated, gammaglobulin measurements, lymphocytes counts, B, T, and NK cells analyses by cytometry, including exhaustion analyses. In addition, T cell repertoire sequencing looking for SARS-CoV-2- specific T cells, and serologies, will be evaluated at recovery and 6 months after MM treatment re-initiation.
Treatments for COVID-19 are urgently needed. Emricasan (EMR) is a pan caspase inhibitor. Caspase-1 plays a role in a form of cell death called pyroptosis. EMR inhibits pyroptosis. The Investigators have shown that peripheral blood lymphocytes of COVID-19 patients overexpress caspase-1, providing evidence for pyroptosis. A recent European study corroborate the Investigators finding as they have shown evidence for the activation of the inflammasome in COVID-19.
This study is designed to compare the performance of the NOWDx COVID-19 Test to an emergency use authorized PCR test result. The intent is to show the rapid test device is comparable to a currently marketed device. The NOWDx COVID-19 Test is an in vitro lateral flow immunoassay intended for qualitative detection of total antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in human fingerstick whole blood at the Point of Care (POC); i.e. in patient care settings operating under a CLIA Certificate of Waiver, Certificate of Compliance, or Certificate of Accreditation; and at home.
