Filter by:COVID-19 mRNA vaccines, administered with a two-dose regimen, have been shown to provide protection against Covid-19. However, the thromboinflammatory response toward these vaccines has never been explored as they exploit a completely new technology. It was reported that mRNA vaccines are highly reactogenic right after vaccine administration in particular in young adults, but we do not know which cells drive the early immune response to LNP-mRNA vaccines in humans and if platelets become activated as well. Moreover, it is not known if female, who have a heightened immune response to other vaccines, are able to mount a faster response to this new type of vaccines. Objectives of the study is to characterize the platelet and immune response and the platelet-immune cross-talk in subjects undergoing SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.
Objectives: 1.- To evaluate the changes in health care and use of services in patients with chronic diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), heart failure and major depression between 2017-2019 and the years 2020-2022, COVID pandemic period, and to see their relationship with clinical outcomes (in terms of mortality, admissions, death, current situation of his disease) and changes in health-related quality of life. 2- To evaluate the health care provided to a cohort of patients diagnosed with SARSCOV-2 (COVID-19 positive) during 2020 based on accessibility, equity and outcomes obtained. 3-To evaluate the evolution of the cohort of patients diagnosed with SARSCOV-2 after two years of follow-up since their diagnosis and create clinical prediction rules for the persistence of symptoms. Methodology. Four cohorts already created in previous projects are included: three of chronic patients, COPD, heart failure, major depression, all of 2017, and for which baseline information is available for follow-up of the health care they received in the 2017-19 period compared to that received during the 2020-22 period and to see the changes in their health-related quality of life from baseline based on generic and specific questionnaires for each of the pathologies included. Another cohort of positive and admitted patients for COVID-19 in 2020 is included, in whom the services received will be evaluated and recorded symptoms persistency that may have had up to two years after their index admission to develop tools for predicting the persistence of symptoms in the medium-long term.
Aim of the study is to determine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on blood pressure profiles and variability as assessed by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) through the comparison of ABPM data obtained before and during the COVID-19 lockdown in already treated hypertensive patients
The purpose of this study is to test if visualizing the heart with cardiac MRI/echo will be important in the understanding cardiac function and prediction of cardiopulmonary symptoms, physical effort tolerance, and outcomes in COVID-19 survivors. If successful, the research will allow us to identify the causes of lasting cardiopulmonary symptoms and begin developing cardiac and lung directed therapies accordingly.
To evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the third dose SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine, Inactivated (Vero Cell) in adults aged 18 years and above, who inoculated the third dose after 3, 4, 5, or 6 months since finished two doses schedule of Institute of Medical Biology Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences SARS-CoV-2 inactivated vaccine.
Recently, obesity and excess visceral fat were shown to be major risk factors for the development of complications following Covid 19 infection. Recently, KDs have been suggested as possible weapons to tame the cytokine storm being described in those developing complications upon COVID-19 infection, and preclinical evidence strongly supports the hypothesis, with mouse models of COVID-19 infection in the elderly reporting strikingly better outcomes upon consumption of a KD. Short-term interventions that use low-calorie ketogenic diets may be prescribed for selected overweight or obese patients with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes. No data is available on the impact of a ketogenic diet on immune modulation following vaccination. We herein aim at investigating whether obesity and unhealthy body composition are associated with poor seroconversion following the upcoming COVID-19 vaccine administration, and whether consumption of a KD before and between COVID-19 vaccine doses leads to better immune response in obese subjects. 24 obese patients will be assigned to follow a LCKD regimen for 5 weeks.
To evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the third dose SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine, Inactivated (Vero Cell) in adults aged 18 years and above, who inoculated the third dose after 3, 4, 5, or 6 months since finished two doses schedule of CoronaVac or BBIBP-CorV.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of low-frequency magnetic field in the hybrid treatment of COVID-19 patients, i.e., including magnetostimulation in the standard treatment. The authors evaluated among other things, the immunocorrective therapeutic effect of magnetostimulation, improving the defensive functions of the immune system and thus supporting the immune function by, among other things, suppressing the "cytokine storm". After application of low-frequency magnetic field in the hybrid treatment of COVID-19 patients, the authors expected: a decrease in the level of proinflammatory factors (IL - 6), restoration of homeostasis in the body with regards to the range of parameters evaluated in laboratory tests (WBC, MONO, PLT, CRP, d-dimers) and normalization of the following parameters: arterial blood pressure, the number of breaths/min, saturation, temperature.
Background:The impact of the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants on the severity and clinical outcomes of COVID-19 is controversial. Whether virological characteristics including the mutational patterns of the different viral proteins (e.g., Spike, NSP proteins, ORF6) could be associated with a different immune response and subsequent severity of the disease is unknown. ln the next coming months, new variants carrying the same or new mutational patterns will continue to emerge. Monitoring their dynamics over time and their impact on disease severity is required for refining national and international disease control policies. Main objective: To unravel the relationships between specific viral mutations/mutational patterns and the clinical outcomes of COVID-19 in patients hospitalized in intensive care units (ICUs) for acute respiratory failure following severe SARS-CoV-2 infection. Design of the study Prospective multicentre observational cohort study Schedule for the study: Inclusion period: 24 months; Participation period: 28 days ; Total duration : 24 months + 28 days;
Great expectations to control the pandemic are placed in vaccines against COVID-19. Currently, the four COVID-19 vaccines approved in the European Union. The investigators designed a study assessing the anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody titer after vaccination cycle with the BNT162b2 vaccine in several time points relating these results to the COVID-19 history and severity of symptoms during the disease and after the first and second vaccine dose.
