Filter by:This is a randomized double-blind controlled study with the primary aim of scientifically evaluating the potential effects of paracetamol and ibuprofen in the management of sepsis by comparing their fever-reducing efficacy in septic patients. Sepsis is recognized as a severe form of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) characterized by organ dysfunction resulting from severe infections. This study aims to address a significant aspect of fever management in septic patients by objectively assessing the fever-reducing potential of paracetamol and ibuprofen.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare standard treatment (5 days of doxycycline) vs single dose doxycycline for the prevention of tick-borne relapsing fever in soldiers who found bite marks on their bodies after an activity that includes contact with the ground or staying at a site suspected of being infected with ticks. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Testing whether preventive treatment with a single dose of doxylin at a dose of 200 mg is effective in preventing recurrent fever, and if so, at what rate - Checking the profile and rate of side effects in each one of the proposed treatment protocols Participants will be treated with standard treatment (5 days of doxycycline) or single dose doxycycline.
The research was conducted in a randomized controlled design to evaluate the effectiveness of the fever management training given to mothers of children aged 0-5.
This is a prospective, randomized, open-label clinical trial to evaluate the safety of COVID-19 vaccination and other routine childhood vaccines given simultaneously at Visit 1, as compared to sequential vaccination of COVID-19 vaccine and other vaccines at separate visits (Visits 1 and 2).
Onychomycosis is a common nail plate infection caused by dermatophytes, non-dermatophytic molds, and yeasts. The disease is difficult to achieve self-healing and predisposed to secondary bacterial infections. There are currently multiple medications that can be used for the treatment of onychomycosis. The limitations are high recurrence rate and high cost, time-consuming and drug interactions. Several FDA approved laser devices have been available for the treatment of onychomycosis since 2010. As an emerging physical therapy modality, laser and light have advantages including extensive applicable range, simple operation, less trauma, and it will not lead to generation of new resistant strains. Therefore, it has been popularized and applied in clinics, especially among elderly, immunocompromised patients, or those with liver and kidney dysfunction. Laser systems in the near-infrared spectrum (780 nm∼ 3,000 nm wavelength), which are commonly used in onychomycosis, exert their effect by direct heating of target tissues, but it can cause unbearable physical pain to the patient. Compared with laser, controllable infrared bioeffect system has the advantages of high safety, less trauma, and less pain. Reported in the literature, it has been observed that regression of distant, untreated skin lesions in patients treated locally with controllable infrared bioeffect system, especially in inflammatory skin diseases such as viral warts and sporotrichosis. The aim of the research is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of controllable infrared bioeffect system in treatment of onychomycosis.
Familial Mediterranean Fever is a chronic auto-inflammatory disease. In the context of chronic inflammation, it seems that, among others, it also affects bone density in children. Bone loss may be due to subclinical inflammation that persists even during periods of remission. In addition, inflammatory cytokines also play an important role (mainly during episodes) resulting in an increase in bone degradation and ultimately a reduction in bone mass. Cytokines mainly associated with bone degradation and osteoclast activity are: IL-1R, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, TNFa. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of FMF on bone density and to compare the results with a healthy population. In addition, the difference between the children with FMF will be studied according to the mutation they carry.
Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) genetic diagnosis is well established for homozygous patients. On the other hand, although heterozygous individuals are theoretically healthy carriers, 1/3 of them will develop clinical symptoms of FMF and could benefit from prophylactic treatment. This suggests that the disorder expression mechanisms are not fully elucidated to date. The preliminary results obtained at the Institute for Regenerative Medicine and Biotherapy (IRMB) suggest the involvement of an epigenetic mechanism in FMF pathogenesis, and our laboratory has strong arguments as to the involvement of microRNAs (in particular miR-326) which are negative regulators of gene expression. This study is exploratory and aims to validate the role of miRNAs in the clinical expression of FMF in patients, thus to explore the epigenetic mechanisms that may explain the variability of expression of this disorder.
Gastrointestinal tumours (GITs) are the most common and fatal cancers worldwide; 96% of GITs show the microsatellite-stable (MSS)/proficient mismatch repair (pMMR) phenotype, and these tumours have a poor response to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. Hyperthermia combined with ICI treatment (HIT) has been reported to show a synergistic sensitisation effect in numerous basic studies. This study aimed to validate the effectiveness, safety, and feasibility of water-filtered infrared A radiation (WIRA) whole-body hyperthermia combined with PD-1 inhibitor therapy and evaluate the real-world clinical application prospects of HIT. This open-label single-arm phase 2 clinical trial aimed to enrol advanced GIT patients with the MSS/pMMR phenotype in the East Asian population who had received third-line or higher treatment. The patients were treated with whole-body hyperthermia on days 1 and 8 of each HIT cycle along with administration of tislelizumab 200 mg on day 2 (24 h after the hyperthermia at day 1). The primary outcome was the disease control rate (DCR), while the secondary outcomes were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), safety, and improvement in quality of life.
This is a multi-center, retrospective clinical study to analyze the clinical features, laboratory indicators, imaging changes, treatment options and long-term prognosis in patients with sever fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome. All hospitalized patients with sever fever with thrombocytopenia diagnosed between 2016 and 2022 were included from the electronic medical record system of 8 centers, and demographics, hospitalization information, clinical information, laboratory or imaging examinations, treatment options, and outcomes were collected.
The goal of this randomized study to test the efficacy of different doses of IVIG (intravenous immunoglobulin) in the treatment of severe HFRS（hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome）, and provide new clinical ideas for the treatment and prognosis of HFRS patients in the future. This study will include all hospitalized patients with confirmed severe or critically ill HFRS from October 2021 to October 2023 from 9 centers. Participants will receive IVIG 10g/d or IVIG 20g/d. All the participants will be given conventional liquid therapy and symptomatic and supportive treatment. Participants will be collected demographic, epidemiological history, hospitalization information, clinical data, laboratory data, imaging results, treatment regimens, and outcomes data.
