Filter by:The COVID-19 infection, which is considered as a pandemic by the World Health Organization, affects the whole world. COVID-19 is an infectious respiratory disease caused by SARS-CoV-2. It is stated in early studies that after COVID-19 infection, there are adverse effects on both the peripheral and respiratory muscles along with the pulmonary system involvement. The purpose of our study; To examine the effect of Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) on respiratory muscle strength, respiratory functions and functional capacity in PostCOVID-19 patients. Patients who have been hospitalized and discharged with the diagnosis of COVID-19 in Istinye University hospitals, at least 6 weeks have passed since the infection, the PCR test has turned negative will be taken. The evaluation and treatment of the patients will be carried out in the Education and Research Units of Istinye University Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Department. Patients included in the study will be randomly divided into two groups, study and control groups. Demographic evaluation form, Post Covid Functional Status Scale, Charlson Comorbidity Index, Modified Medical Research Council (MMRC) Dyspnea scale, Corbin posture analysis, Respiratory function test, Respiratory muscle strength measurement, Respiratory Muscle Endurance measurement, 6-minute walking test (6 MWT) ), Peripheral Muscle Strength, Grip Strength, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Breathlessness Perception Questionnaire (BBQ) and Nottingham Health Profile Questionnaire will be used. In the study group, IMT will be applied at 40% of the maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) for eight weeks, every day of the week, twice a day for 15 minutes. The patients will come for a control once a week, the MIP values will be measured again and the new training intensity will be determined at 40% of the new MIP value. The control group will be given a constant training of 15 minutes at 10% of the MIP, twice a day, every day of the week for eight weeks. Evaluations of the study and control groups will be made at the beginning and after eight weeks.
The purpose of this study is to assess SARS CoV-2 infection, viral shedding, and subsequent potential transmission in individuals immunized with the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine.
The study comprise a nationwide, voluntary, on-line survey of inflammatory syndromes in children for retrospective (since 4th March 2020) and prospective data collection. Our aim was to capture and describe multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) in Poland.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccine in hospital based HWs in Albania. This will answer critical questions about the real-world performance of COVID-19 vaccines in one of the key target groups for vaccination.
The pandemic we live through has put various sectors of the medical system and its tributaries to the test. The accumulation of external and internal stress has been completely correlated with the predisposition to psycho-emotional problems and, in turn, to drug use as an immature response for ego protection. That is why the economic, social, and psychological evaluation can help understand the current situation about drug abuse and how to help patients afflicted by it. The added stress of personal problems, work alterations, daily life in a pandemic, economic and varied responsibilities, and the understanding of the pandemic have predisposed and amplified the use of drugs to reduce emotional distress perceived by individuals. The hypothesis of this study is that the increment of stress and a lack of preparation for the pandemic are associated with increased drug abuse.
The Center for Disease Control (CDC) and World Health Organization (WHO) have deemed the COVID-19 virus a global pandemic of unprecedented severity in modern times. In 2019, this novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) emerged from the Asian continent and has now caused upwards of 1million deaths and over 6 million infections globally. Currently, the estimated global economic impact is over 5 Trillion dollars. Understanding the host response to pathogens, specifically the cellular and humoral responses, has played an important role in new non-antibiotic therapies. Bismuth subsalicylate (Pepto-Bismol) has a potential role in the clearance and/or recurrence of enteric viral infections.
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.
This study was an experimental, randomized clinical trial, with a parallel design, with aims were seeing the effectiveness of extracted Psidii guava on white blood cells (WBCs) count, neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), high sensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP), proportion and duration COVID-19 seroconversion subjects compared to controls. One of the herbs standardized that was commonly used in Indonesia is extracted Psidii guava, which is known as a guava leaf extract. Extract Psidii guava contains chemical substances saponins, oleanolic acid, xylopyranoside, flavonoids, quercetin, arabinopyranoside, and Guaijavarin. The Previous study on Psidii guava stated that guava leaves contain lots of flavonoids, especially quercetin. An in vitro study of dengue virus type 2 found that quercetin significantly inhibited the activity of the DEN-2 virus, while other flavonoids looked weaker. On the other hand, in an in vitro test of glycosylated flavonoids from Psidium Geunesse, which is a guava leaf from Brazil, received the use of flavonoids in Psidium Geunesse to inhibit HIV-1 virus activity with a 50% inhibition concentration of about 8.5 μg / ml compared to single active substances. Quercetin with a 50% inhibitory concentration of about 53μg / ml. These flavonoids also inhibited the enzyme reverse transcriptase HIV-1(RT)with an inhibition concentration of 7.2 μM compared to quercetin 0.6 μM single. Another study found that quercetin in Psidii guava inhibits RNA polymerase, which is important in dengue virus replication. In addition, quercetin can inhibit protease enzyme, helicase domain, and viral ATPase enzyme. There is an antiviral effect based on limited in vitro studies but with quite a lot of literature studies, and considering that there are no effective antiviral drugs against COVID-19, especially mild and moderate cases, also considering the length of healing time for patients COVID-19 with the risk of isolation. For a long time with various consequences, researchers tried to examine the effectiveness of extract Psidii guava inpatients COVID-19 at the quarantine location of the West Sumatra Provincial Government. Extract Psidii guava is hypothesized to improve WBCs, neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, NLR, hs-CRP level, to increase proportion and shorten the duration of COVID-19 seroconversion in mild and symptomless cases.
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.
This is a Phase 2 prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, parallel group, single administration, multi-center study to assess the safety and efficacy of efineptakin alfa single treatment compared to placebo in elderly participants (adults ≥50years) with asymptomatic or mild COVID-19
