Filter by:Due to the Covid-19 worldwide outbreak, fragile patients with immune diseases, notably rheumatoid arthritis (RA), have to be even more specifically and carefully followed-up. However, it has been shown that false postive serological results often occured while detecting antibodies directed against SARS-CoV-2 in patients with positive rheumatodoid factor (RF). The investigators propose here to investigated this issue. Therefore, the investigators will test three different immunoassays on this specific population. The investigators aim to establish these assays specificity and the levels of RF for which there is a risk of anti-SARS-CoV-2 false positivity and thus ensure a better follow-up of RA patients. The RF isotype will be analysed to determine whether there is a correlation and the impact of the presence of anti-CCP (citrullinated cyclic antipeptide antibodies) will be studied and assessed.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of Ivermectin in patients with mild SARS-CoV-2 infection, in the rate of progression to severe 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19). The primary efficacy endpoint is the proportion of participants with a disease control status defined as no progression of severe disease Hypothesis (H0): There is no difference between group A (ivermectin + paracetamol) and group B (ivermectin + paracetamol) in terms of the primary endpoint on day 14.
Participants are healthcare workers and adult outpatients referred in a COVID-19 screening center. Patients-reported symptoms are collected, then participants underwent a simple olfactory test (CODA for Clinical Olfactory Dysfunction Assessment), prior to swabbing for SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis (RT-PCR). We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of smell and taste disorders, and to calculate the diagnostic value of patient-reported and clinically verified smell disorders in persons with suspected COVID-19.
The prone position strategy for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is simple and cost-effective from the first description on its use in patients with acute respiratory failure to improve hypoxemia. Different studies have investigated its safety and efficacy in various clinical settings, demonstrating that its early use in combination with non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIV) or high-flow oxygen therapy can reduce intubation rate and mortality in ARDS. In the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, high-value medicine and resource optimization are critical.
A study to assess the impact of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on the attitude, behaviour and mental health of rheumatic patients and to compare them with healthy individuals.
This study will measure vitamin D levels in adults with COVID 19. Participants with low levels of vitamin D will be entered into an open label trial of supplementation with vitamin D.
Considering that simvastatin, and probably statins in general, interfere with SARS-cov-2 cellular uptake and some inflammatory pathways activated by the virus, those patients on statin therapy should be less vulnerable to infection and their clinical course and prognosis should be better than that in individuals not on statin therapy.
To determine whether the use of oxygen hoods as compared to conventional high-flow oxygen delivery systems, and the effects on oxygenation, mechanical ventilation and mortality rates in hypoxic patients with COVID-19.
The overall objective of this study is to assess the enormity of mental health outcomes among healthcare providers (nurses and physicians) exposed to COVID-19 during the time of the pandemic in the United States, specifically targeting those areas most effected.
This is a two-arm, open-label, randomized, phase 2, controlled center study to assess the safety and efficacy of Viusid and Asbrip in patients with mild to moderate symptoms of respiratory disease caused by 2019 coronavirus infection. Patients will be randomized to receive daily doses of 30 ml of Viusid and 10 ml of Asbrip every 8 hours or standard care. Viusid and Asbrip will be administered orally. A total of 60 subjects will be randomized 2: 1 in this study. 40 patients will be assigned to Viusid plus Asbrip plus standard of care and 20 control patients with standard of care. Treatment duration: 21 days.
