Filter by:Many cases of subacute thyroiditis (SAT) have been described related to SARS-CoV-2 infection, but no prospective data about follow-up is known. This prospective, longitudinal, 3-year, multicentre study is aimed at exploring clinical peculiarities and outcome of SAT in relation to SARS-CoV-2 infection, ascertained with antibody dosage. All patients receiving SAT diagnosis from November 2020 to May 2022 were enrolled. Multicentre study. Data about anamnesis, physical examination, blood tests (TSH, freeT4, freeT3, thyroglobulin, anti-thyroid antibodies, C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, complete blood count), and thyroid ultrasound were collected. At baseline, the presence of IgG against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein or nucleocapside was investigated. Patients were evaluated after 1, 3, 6, 12 months.
The goal of this clinical study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Longidaza®, lyophilizate for preparation of solution for injection, at a dose of 3000 IU compared to placebo in the treatment of adult patients with residual changes in the lungs after COVID-19 infection
A observer-blind, randomized, controlled, investigator-initiated clinical trial to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a booster vaccination with Recombinant COVID-19 vaccine (Sf9 Cell) in a population aged 18-60 years old who have completed 3 doses vaccination with COVID-19 Vaccine (Vero Cell), Inactivated ≥ 6 months at least 6 months prior to enrolment. The study uses a non-inferiority design to compare between schedules with Recombinant COVID-19 Vaccine (Sf9 Cell) versus COVID-19 Vaccine (Vero Cell) Inactivated as the booster dose. Participants, laboratory and analysing statisticians will remain blind to treatment allocation. A total of 120 participants will be enrolled, participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive a single dose of Recombinant COVID-19 vaccine (Sf9 Cell) (test group) or COVID-19 Vaccine (Vero Cell), Inactivated.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a multisystem rehabilitation program for Long Covid patients in two different settings. Design: Randomized controlled trial. Settings: Health resort and home-based. Participants: 72 Long Covid patients. Interventions: Patients were randomly assigned into two groups: Group A (n=36) received health resort intervention, and Group B (n=36) received home-based care. Both groups underwent a 5-week rehabilitation program, involving motor, respiratory, and cognitive exercises, two sessions per week. Outcomes: Assessments were conducted before (T0) and after treatment (T1), at 3 (T2) and 6 months (T3), including respiratory and physical function, handgrip strength, fatigue, pain, quality of life, psychological function, and satisfaction.
During the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic a large number patients reported different functional complaints one month or later after recovery from the acute infection. This entity had a number of names including "long-COVID" or "post COVID condition". Long-COVID is on the rise and no effective treatment exists yet to improve cognitive function. Recent research has shown that people with even mild COVID had a greater decline in executive function, notably in their ability to perform complex tasks. What drives post-COVID cognitive changes is still a mystery and there are no effective treatments available. One hypothesis is that there is persistent immune activation resulting in reduction in cerebral blood flow. There is evidence that increased CO2 may decrease inflammation, and decreased CO2 may increase inflammation. Objectives: The primary objective of this pilot study is to assess the safety and tolerability of the use of Hi-OX sequential rebreathing for the treatment of post-COVID cognitive dysfunction. The secondary objective is to identify the effects of the use of the Hi-OX rebreathing treatment in changing post-COVID cognitive dysfunction.
The aim of this work is to estimate the frequency of small airway disease and/or the bronchial hyperreactivity in follow up of postacute covid survivors.
A phase IV study to assess if the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine from Johnson & Johnson/Janssen (J&J) results in change in number and activation of platelets and anti-PF4 Level. As well as compare whether the vaccine is causing a greater activation of platelets and anti-PF4 than the mRNA vaccines. The Danish Medicines Agency has approved the vaccine from J&J for use in Denmark, however it is not currently part of the national vaccine programme. The design is an open-labelled, non-randomised, parallel group, phase IV study with historical controls. A sub-study will be embedded within this master protocol addressing basic and translational research questions requiring additional sampling of biological material (under separate participant informed consent).
This study has significant implications for research, as it provides a basis for further studies on the antiviral effects of LGLQ Oral Liquid, encouraging more extensive clinical studies in larger populations and diverse age groups to validate these findings. For medical practice, the findings suggest that LGLQ can be considered an alternative treatment option for mild cases of COVID-19, especially in managing symptoms like fatigue, potentially broadening the range of effective treatments available to healthcare practitioners. In terms of policy, the demonstrated efficacy of LGLQ could lead to its inclusion in treatment guidelines for COVID-19 and other viral infections, fostering a more integrated approach combining Western medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine in the global fight against pandemics. The insights from this study might prompt health policymakers to reassess the potential of herbal formulations in managing and treating infectious diseases and consider them in the development of future healthcare strategies and policies.
The (Coronavirus Clinical Characterisation Consortoum) 4C mortality score is an accessible risk stratification score developed by the International Severe Acute Respiratory and Emerging Infections Consortium (ISARIC) based on eight different parameters: age, sex, number of comorbidities, respiratory rate, peripheral oxygen saturation, level of consciousness (Glasgow Coma Scale), urea or blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level, and C reactive protein (CRP). It was derived and internally validated on a large, diverse cohort within the United Kingdom but requires external validity to confirm its generalizability. A recent validation study demonstrated that the score could be simplified by deleting CRP item which is favorable to its widespread use. we aim to validate a modified 4C score.
Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), which emerged in Wuhan, China in 2019 and causes severe respiratory infection, poses a potential risk for dentists and patients during dental treatments. It is a common situation during the pandemic period for parents of children needing dental treatment to want to postpone their children's treatment due to Covid-19. This study aimed to evaluate parents' concerns about their children's dentist appointments and ongoing dental treatments in the presence of the quarantine imposed due to Covid-19 and the Covid-19 vaccines that have started to be administered worldwide. In the study, an informative survey consisting of 26 questions was applied to determine how parents feel about the COVID-19 pandemic, how concerned they are about their children's oral health and dental treatment plan, and the changes caused by COVID-19 vaccination practices. The questions were created by 3 different experienced dentists and analysed by 2 different experienced dentists. Questions 7 and 26 were repeated at the beginning and end of the survey to give the same question and answer meaning. Thus, the reliability of the survey was tested.
