Filter by:The COVID-induced fibrotic lung damage continues long after viral infection has subsided and is exhibited by severe respiratory pathology and concomitant symptoms. The long-lasting sequelae in patients who have recovered from severe COVID indicate that there is a 30% chance of developing a persistent respiratory system pathology and a 10% chance of developing a severe pathology. The symptoms of lung fibrosis include a severe disruption of respiration, reduction of exercise tolerance, and concomitant development of persistent fibrotic lung damage. This study intends to evaluate benefits of a combination of VL-P22 and VL-PX10 in Covid-19 patients exhibiting pulmonary fibrosis.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about how study medicine (Paxlovid, which contains nirmatrelvir and ritonavir) is changed and eliminated from the body, as well as its safety, and the extent to which side effects can be tolerated for treatment of pregnant women with mild or moderate COVID-19 compared to non-pregnant women with mild or moderate COVID-19. This study is seeking participants who: - are expecting a healthy baby and are in their second or third trimester pregnancy and have mild or moderate COVID-19 - are not pregnant and have mild or moderate COVID-19. All participants in this study will take Paxlovid by mouth every 12 hours for 5 days. We will study the experiences of people receiving the study medicine. This will help us decide if the study medicine is safe. All participants will take part in this study for at least 34 days; pregnant participants will take part until their delivery, so that the study duration may be up to 6 months, depending on their delivery date. During this time, participants will have 7to 8 visits and, if pregnant, a visit at delivery. Around 2 to 3 visits and the delivery visit will be done in person (at the clinic or at the participant's home). The other 5 visits may be done over the phone, unless in-person visit is necessary as decided by the doctor. Blood samples will be collected on the first 4 to 5 study visits (and at other study visits, if necessary).
The coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) is a new strain of coronavirus found in human in 2019, which causes epidemic worldwide. A study found that the increase in hyaluronic acid levels is closely related to the clinical symptoms of COVID-19, including pulmonary ground glass lesions, lymphocytopenia, immune response and cytokine storms, systemic vascular diseases, thrombotic coagulation disorders, which suggests that hyaluronic acid could be an important target for COVID-19 treatment and could improve the clinical symptoms of COVID-19 patients. The results from a recent clinical trial recruited 144 patients with COVID-19 show that the inhibitor of hyaluronic acid synthesis, hymecromone, can significantly improve clinical symptoms, such as lung lesions and lymphocytopenia in COVID-19 patients. Therefore, hymecromone has the potential to become one of the options of COVID-19 treatment. This study is a single-center, randomized, parallel controlled, double-blind clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Hymecromone tablets in subjects aged 18-90 years (with boundary values) with a confirmed mild or moderate form of COVID-19 infection. The aim of this study is to optimize the program of the combination of hymecromone in the treatment of COVID-19 to improve the therapeutic effect.
The objectives of this project are to (1) assemble a crowdsourced, de-identified radiographic repository; and (2) train and validate existing COVID-NET deep learning diagnostic models.
Olfactory dysfunction is a defining symptom of COVID-19 infection. Studies have demonstrated improved olfaction in patients with post infectious olfactory dysfunction after an olfactory training (OT). The aim of this study is to assess the clinical outcomes of olfactory training (12 weeks) therapy in the treatment of persistent olfactory dysfunctions after COVID-19. Specially, we aim to compare the effectiveness of two different olfactory training (different odors) with a placebo group. A group will train themselves with 4 scents (rose, orange, clove and eucalyptus) and another group with 4 different scents (cheese, coffee, strawberries and lemon). The placebo group will train themselves with an odorless substance. Olfaction sensory evaluation will be performed by using different olfaction tests (Sniffin' Sticks and UPSIT) and complete questionnaires to assess olfactory perception and particularly parosmia and phantosmia.
Patients with cancer are considered vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 infection and have been prioritized in the vaccination process in several countries, including Taiwan. In addition, international oncological societies favored COVID-19 vaccination for cancer patients on the basis of risk and benefits evaluation of all available data. However, patients with cancer were excluded from SARS- CoV-2 vaccines registrational trials and the investigators lack data regarding the safety and efficacy of vaccination in this population. Under this perspective, the investigators undertook a large prospective study enrolling patients with solid cancers, hematologic malignancies as well as healthy volunteers for the kinetics of anti- SARS-CoV-2 antibodies after COVID-19 vaccination on different anticancer therapy. Major inclusion criteria for this cohort of the study included: (1) age above 20 years; (2) presence of solid organ malignancies treated with immunotherapy, chemotherapy, Targeted therapy irrespective of the treatment phase; and (3) eligibility for vaccination.
A retrospective study to evaluate the predictability of abnormal arterial blood gas measurements through novel observations of continuous trends in electronically measured respiratory in a mixed cohort of respiratory compromised patients.
Coronavirus-2019 (COVID-19) is a new virus that emerged in December 2019 and spread quickly all over the world. Problems such as hypoxia, dyspnea, increased fatigue, decreased exercise capacity and respiratory muscle strength occur in COVID-19 patients.In addition, abnormalities in skeletal muscles due to systemic inflammation, mechanical ventilation, sedation and prolonged bed rest in hospital and intensive care patients cause decreased exercise capacity.
Pulmonary involvement and fibrosis could be seen in patients after COVID-19. Especially diffusion capacity, pulmonary function, exercise capacity and muscle strength have decreased in patients with COVID-19. Some symptom complaints of patients might continue after the disease, also. It has been shown that COVID-19 causes pulmonary involvement. However, the number of studies revealing the extent of pulmonary and extrapulmonary exposure due to COVID 19 comparing to healthy individuals is very limited, and has not been adequately investigated yet.
Aim of this prospective, interventional, single-center, randomized study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intermittent hypoxic-hyperoxic training (IHHT) as a rehabilitation method in patients with cardiovascular pathology in the early period after coronavirus infection. The study will include 60 patients with cardiovascular pathology who underwent confirmed by laboratory tests COVID-19 infection 1-3 months ago with the degree of lung lesion CT3, CT4, who were admitted to the University Clinical Hospital No. 4 of I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University. The patients will be divided into 2 groups (intervention and control groups). Intervention group will inhale hypoxic gas mixtures (10-12% O2) followed by exposure to a hyperoxic gas mixture with 30-35% O2 5 times a week for 3 weeks, while control group will undergo a simulated IHHT. All the patients will undergo identical laboratory and instrumental testing before IHHT, after the last IHHT procedure, in a month after the last IHHT procedure and in 6 months. Estimated result of the study is to confirm or refute the hypothesis of the study that a three-week course of IHHT in patients with cardiovascular pathology in the early period after coronavirus infection can improve exercise tolerance, as well as the quality of life and psychoemotional status, and affect the dynamics of laboratory and instrumental parameters.
