Filter by:This study aims to answer the question whether daily oral vitamin D supplementation can reduce the risk of respiratory or lung complications in children and adolescents with sickle cell disease. Respiratory problems are the leading causes of sickness and of death in sickle cell disease. The investigators hypothesize that daily oral vitamin D3, compared to monthly oral vitamin D, will rapidly increase circulating vitamin D3, and reduce the rate of respiratory complications by 50% or more within the first year of supplementation in children and adolescents with sickle cell disease. This study is funded by the FDA Office of Orphan Products Development (OOPD).
This multicenter, non-interventional, prospective study will collect information about activity status, bleeds, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), health status, and safety in participants with moderate or severe haemophilia A without factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitors, who are being treated in accordance with normal clinical practice.
This is a multicenter, open-label, single-arm study designed to evaluate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of emicizumab in participants with mild or moderate hemophilia A without inhibitors against factor VIII (FVIII).
Diabetic foot ulcer is the commonest cause of severe limb ischemia in diabetes mellitus And development of anemia is an additional burden to the microvascular complications of diabetes
Iron deficiency anemia is a global health problem and the most common cause of anemia worldwide. Patients with iron deficiency and Iron deficiency anemia can present with a multitude of symptoms including fatigue, dyspnea on exertion, dysphagia, pallor, palpitations, headaches, tinnitus, taste disturbance and pica. Oral iron supplementation is associated with increasing hemoglobin in multiple studies in women, pregnant women and elderly patients. However, the optimal dose and frequency of oral iron supplementation for treatment remains unclear. The current proposed study attempts to address this gap in the literature.
Patients with IDA and for whom fast replenishment of iron stores is necessary, e.g. if its not appropriated to postpone surgery, will be identified within 28 to 42 days before surgery. Patients will be randomised to receive either Polyglucoferron intravenously (i.v.), Ferric Carboxymaltose i.v. or oral iron substitution with Ferrous sulfate.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate non-inferiority for efficacy and safety of Ferrum Lek® (iron (III) hydroxide polymaltosate), 100 mg chewable tablets (Lek d.d., Slovenia), compared to MALTOFER® (Vifor S.A., Switzerland), in the treatment of patients with mild and moderate iron-deficiency anaemia.
Iron deficiency anemia during pregnancy, which may lead to adverse pregnancy outcomes, was a serious health problem in China. Various iron supplements used in different regions of China, however, the effects have not been well investigated. The objective of this study is to investigate the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia in Chinese pregnant women.
This study aims to compare the efficacy of lactoferrin versus iron supplementation versus two combined supplementation on iron deficiency anemia in female medical Ain Shams students by using iron profile.
This is a Phase 3, randomized, open-label, multicenter, study in male and female pediatric subjects (2 years to <18 years of age) with IDA, or felt by their clinician to be at risk of developing IDA. This study allows for enrollment of subjects with IDA regardless of etiology, except for CKD subjects (pediatric CKD subjects are being studied in a separate ferumoxytol protocol).
