Filter by:The pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has serious implications on urology practice and raises particular questions for urologists about the management of different conditions. It was recommended to cancel most of the elective urological surgeries. (1) The least invasive intervention modalities that can be completed in local or regional anesthesia will serve the best interest of patients and urologists. 10 14 Endoscopic surgery is considered relatively safe.(2) After end of pandemic we facing complication of this era, one of most common complication was JJ stents complications as most of patient and doctors prefers to defer most of elective management by just JJ insertion and postpone definitive treatment. (3) In this study we discuss retrospectively the complication of JJ stenting during Covid 19 pandemic.
The study hypothesizes that SARS-CoV-2 vaccination poisoning hibernates in human host in Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C). The clinical trial is a follow-up from the intervention trial with NCT number NCT05711810. It tests the use of Atorvastatin Calcium Tablets for detoxification and prevention of blood acidification, and the use of the Chinese herb compounded Anti-Viral Granules for the detoxification in the endocrine system.
Headache is one of the most common neurological manifestations of COVID-19. However, it is unclear whether chronic headache after the initial diagnosis, is associated with ongoing damage of the central nervous system. We investigate cpost-COVID-19 patients with persistent headache lasting longer than 3 weeks, to hospitalized acute COVID-19 patients with neurological symptoms and to other non-COVID-19 disease-controls. Readout are neurologial and glial biomarkers in CSF.
Rationale: Hyper-inflammatory responses seen in acute COVID-19 are also a feature of long covid, a condition of long-term consequences that are persisting or appearing after initial infection and recovery from acute COVID-19. Long-standing, often disabling symptoms are common in long covid and can be highly varied. Common symptoms include fatigue, brain fog, muscle and chest pain, migraines, shortness of breath, anosmia, muscle weakness, and cognitive dysfunction. 35% of post-COVID patients were found to have decreased kidney function at 6 months post-discharge. In this study, we will evaluate the effect of dietary interventions in long covid patients. The dietary interventions are aimed at lowering blood glucose levels, and raising blood BHB levels. The dietary plan will recommend a low-carbohydrate diet including the avoidance of foods containing sugars and starch, while simultaneously increasing the consumption of healthy fats and sources of protein. The dietary interventions are supported by the consumption of a medical food that delivers exogenous BHB in order to raise blood BHB levels without the necessity of adhering to a strict ketogenic diet which would be difficult to implement and typically requires strict medical supervision. Intervention: Dietary intervention with Ketocitra versus control arm (no intervention) in a 1:1 ratio Objectives: The hypothesis of this study is that low-carbohydrate dietary interventions leading to lowering of blood glucose and raising of blood BHB in addition to standard therapy will lead to faster recovery and amelioration of symptoms in long covid compared to those treated with standard therapy alone. Study population: Subjects with a history of COVID-19 at least 2 months ago and with at least 2 neurological and/or symptoms that are typical for long covid that either started at COVID-19 infection and are ongoing at time of study entry Study methodology: Prospective and interventional randomized controlled pilot study Study arms: Dietary intervention (including medical food) arm versus control arm Study endpoints: The primary endpoint is the feasibility, safety and tolerability of dietary intervention.
The goal of this prospective multicentric study is to evaluate the presence of long-term pulmonary sequelae in patients who had required hospitalization for treating COVID-19 pneumonia, trough chest CT and pulmonary function tests (PFT). Secondly we would like to evaluate the possible correlation between the chest CT findings and pulmonary function tests pre-existing co-morbidities and type of therapy used during hospitalization.
With the decline of virulence after the mutation of the SARS-CoV-2 , based on the national life and health and national development needs, the domestic SARS-CoV-2 infection epidemic prevention policy has changed, and the number of people infected by the SARS-CoV-2 has increased. Nutritional status is an indicator of human health and plays an important role in fighting disease. Malnutrition has been found to correlate with prognosis in patients infected with the SARS-CoV-2 infection . Timely identification and assessment of the patient's nutritional status and early implementation of relevant nutritional intervention are conducive to the recovery of the patient's condition. In clinical practice, it is necessary to improve nutrition as an aspect of the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, but there is still a lack of relevant nutritional indicators or models to simply and accurately assess the nutritional status of patients.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of PNI, NRI, GNRI, albumin level, vitamin D, chest muscle area and density on the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, to find the nutritional predictors of severe disease in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, and to establish a simpler and more accurate nutritional evaluation model. To provide evidence for targeted nutritional interventions in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection.
The investigators will conduct retrospective observational cohort study at the Nationaal Multiple Sclerose Centrum (NMSC) Melsbroek (Belgium), which is a large center specifically focusing on neurological management, multidisciplinary care and/or rehabilitation in patients with MS. Primary endpoint For each DMT category, as defined above, the proportion of patients with a worse COVID-19 outcome (i.e., hospitalization and/or death) will be compared between those 'protected' versus 'unprotected' by vaccination at the time of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Corrections will be applied for any eventual imbalance in demographics, potentially relevant to COVID-19 outcome, between subgroups that are compared to each other, if indicated/feasible.
The study titled "Effectiveness of Modified Diaphragmatic Training for Improving GERD-Q Score, Diaphragmatic Excursion, Maximum Inspiratory Pressure and Lung Function in Adults With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease After Covid-19: a Single-blinded Randomized Control Trial" is a clinical trial that aimed to investigate the effectiveness of 4 weeks modified diaphragmatic training (MDT) compare with standard diaphragmatic training for improving GERD-Q score, diaphragmatic excursion, maximum inspiratory pressure, and lung function in adults with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) after COVID-19. The trial was single-blinded and randomized, and it included a total of 50 participants. The results of the study showed that MDT was effective in improving GERD-Q score, diaphragmatic excursion, maximum inspiratory pressure, and lung function in adults with GERD after COVID-19.
The investigators are studying the pathophysiologic links between obesity, insulin resistance (IR), adipose tissue infection, and post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC). This study looks at whether adipose (fat) tissue contributes to PASC by driving chronic inflammation or by serving as a reservoir for SARS-CoV-2 persistence. The results will not only determine whether obesity and IR are risk factors for PASC, but will also define fundamental biology that sets the stage for the investigation of novel or existing therapies that target the causal pathways identified.
Many post COVID-19 patients suffer from cognitive deficits, even after 1 year after hospitalization. These complaints have a huge impact on psychological well-being and quality of life. In rehabilitation programs in the Netherlands, most interventions are based on physical therapy or learning how to cope with fatigue and low levels of energy. In former studies computerized training of cognition in other populations has been proven to be effective. Knowledge on the effect of computerized training on attention and working memory in patients suffering from COVID-19 is urgently needed, and may contribute to more evidence-based rehabilitation programs for these patients. Therefore the effectiveness of computerized training of attention and working memory in post COVID-19 patients with cognitive complaints will be studied in this study.
