Filter by:Currently, COVID+ infected patients who are on ambulatory home monitoring self-assess their health status simply by completing questionnaires and measuring their temperature twice a day. The SECURADOM project proposes to facilitate the follow-up of COVID+ or suspected COVID+ infected patients, followed at home, by collecting clinical signs on a telephone application and to monitor physiological safety parameters (respiratory rate, heart rate, temperature, blood pressure, activity) using connected objects developed by the company WITHINGS. This daily monitoring, which can be transmitted by patients to the doctors in charge of their surveillance, will improve the quality and safety of home monitoring.
The role of CT scan of the chest in Pre-anesthetic assessment of the severity of COVID-19 and the correlations between CT measurements of the aortic and pulmonary arteries diameters and severity of pneumonia.
Athletes in martial arts compete in categories separated by body weight, hence, many athletes need to adjust their habitual body weight during periods with competition preparation. Athletes competing in weight sensitive sports are previously identified with an increased risk for symptoms of low energy availability and of disordered eating. The methods used for body weight regulation are varied, and athletes without professional competent support, are prone to rely on harmful methods. And of importance, female athletes respond more negatively to attempts of body weight reduction with regards to health effects. Athletes of martial art are not surrounded by the same professional competence seen in other organized sports within the international sport federations, and specifically health competence is lacking. Additionally, numbers of females competing in martial art have increased the last decade, but they still practice in a sport culture dominated by males; both with reference to the high number of male participants, and with reference to the coaches within this sport. Sports involving practice in intimate, physical interaction with coaches or opposing athletes, and in sports where clothing is minimal, may be a high risk of experiences of sexual harassment. There have been a few reports on harmful methods of body weight regulation within martial arts, however, little knowledge exists on the practice by female martial art athletes, and the related health effects. Information on experiences of sexual harassment have been sparse in sport generally, with very little knowledge from sports like martial arts specifically. This study aims to explore the practice of female martial art athletes on body weight regulation, recovery strategies, their body acceptance and symptoms of eating disorders, and any experiences of sexual harassment. Additionally, with regards to the recent onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, this study also explores the related experiences by the athletes on training- and eating routines.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if using nasal irrigation, also known as nasal lavage, for 14 days after a positive test in high risk patients can reduce the severity of symptoms associated with COVID-19. Nasal lavage consists of running salt water in one nostril and out the other to get rid of germs. Nasal irrigation was done with either Betadine or baking soda to determine if adding an antimicrobial or changing the pH of the mucous helped. Hospitalization and death were compared for combined nasal irrigation groups to the CDC dataset of patients aged 50+
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a relentlessly progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive weakness involving limb, bulbar, and respiratory muscles.There is currently no information suggesting how COVID-19 affects patients diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This is especially important as respiratory compromise is common in ALS patients and can complicate the clinical course as COVID-19 could lead to respiratory failure and need for intubation. We intend that this registry will guide our understanding of how COVID-19 affects patients with ALS.
Pregnancy and early parenthood are life changing periods characterized by intense emotions and a high vulnerability to emotional problems. Overall 10 - 20 % of pregnant women and women in early postpartum period suffer from mental health problems. In the first months of 2020 , pregnant and breastfeeding women have also needed to face the COVID19 pandemic including the exceptional quarantine measures that have disturbed private and professional life . In addition to the fear of infection , these measures might have negatively impacted the emotional wellbeing of women . As depressive symptoms and anxiety in the pre and peripartum period have been associated with adverse maternal , neonatal and infant outcomes , the psychological impact of COVID19 , and its associated quarantine measures , on pregnant women and new mothers is cause for concern
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the time spent at the home of patients has increased because of national quarantine policies and patients' fear of getting sick. For this reason, in this ongoing process, patients have been unable to go to work regularly due to their chronic diseases (being on administrative leave) and their fear of going out. These reasons have prevented being physically active. The aim of the study is to evaluate the physical activity level, quality of life, glucose control, anxiety, depression, fear of hypoglycemia and loneliness perceptions of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus during the COVID-19 pandemic period and compared with healthy controls.
The major aim of this pilot study is to evaluate a brief coping skills intervention for college students, based on an evidence-based treatment and delivered remotely via 14 short daily videos. Participants will be 150 Rutgers undergraduates who are enrolled in Fall 2020. Participants in the experimental group (n=100) will receive 4 daily smartphone surveys assessing stress, affect, and other related factors for two weeks before, during, and after the 2-week coping skills intervention. Participants in the control group (n=50) will receive assessments over the same time period with no skills intervention. Both groups will be assessed weekly throughout the Fall semester to monitor the transition to the new semester and longer-term impact of the intervention. The control condition participants will have access to the skills videos at the end of the study.
This study investigate the kinetics of IgG responses to both N and S proteins in the subjects who suffered from COVID 19 and then had recovered.
Electronic-nose had been used to diagnose other infectious lung diseases, such as tuberculosis. Universitas Gadjah Mada has developed an electronic-nose device which is easy-to-use, portable, and can be manufactured at a low price. Here the investigators test the electronic-nose to diagnose COVID-19 in Indonesia.
