Filter by:Fever can develop after fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FB) in about 2.5 - 16 % of adult patients. We evaluated the impact of oral amoxicillin/clavulanate (AC) on incidence of postbronchoscopic fever and pneumonia.
Establish the safety and efficacy of 3 months treatment with canakinumab in patients with colchicine resistant Familial Mediterranean Fever.
Zinc and vitamin d deficiency are associated with a state of inflammation/atherosclerosis. There are studies demonstrating an association between vitamin d deficiency and respiratory illnesses. Both zinc and vitamin d are associated with oxidative stress and inflammation.
Improvement of the clinical outcome in patients with resectable pancreatic carcinoma through an intensified adjuvant treatment with gemcitabine, cisplatin and regional deep hyperthermia as compared to standard chemotherapy.
The present study is aiming to unravel the clinical efficacy of intravenously administered paracetamol as antipyretic and analgesic medication in various medical conditions.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential for co-administration of the first dose of CYD Dengue vaccine with childhood vaccination. Primary Objectives: - To describe the safety of CYD Dengue vaccine after each dose; first dose given alone or coadministered with childhood vaccines. Secondary Objectives: - To describe the immunogenicity of CYD Dengue vaccine after each dose; first dose given alone or co-administered with childhood vaccines.
The purpose of this observational study is to examine the rate at which elevated body temperature (fever) is relieved by an itraconazole injection administrated to patients experiencing neutropenic fever . A neutropenic fever is an elevated body temperature that occurs at a time when the patient's white blood cell count is low. White blood cells aid the body's normal defenses against infection, so a fever during this period might make it difficult for the patient to fight infections.
Most malaria deaths occur within 48 hours of onset of symptoms, and in rural areas with poor access to health facilities, home management of malaria (HMM) can improve the timeliness of treatment and reduce malaria mortality by up to 50%. In order to maximize both coverage and impact, ACTs should be deployed in HMM programmes, as well as in formal health facilities. Up to 80% of malaria cases are treated outside the formal health sector and shops are frequently visited as the first (and in some cases only) source of treatment. Strategies to deploy ACTs in Africa thus also need to examine the role of shops in home management and to ensure that drugs sold are appropriate. The current practice of presumptive treatment of any febrile illness as malaria (both at health facilities and in the context of HMM) based solely on clinical symptoms without routine laboratory confirmation, results in significant over-use of antimalarial drugs. With ACT being a more costly regimen, it is important to be more restrictive in its administration and rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) provide a simple means of confirming malaria diagnosis in remote locations lacking electricity and qualified health staff. This study therefore proposes to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and cost-effectiveness of using RDTs to improve malaria diagnosis and treatment by community-based drug distributors.The accuracy of RDTs, and the acceptability of this approach, will be evaluated in both low and high transmission areas.
To evaluate the causes of non-malarial febrile illness in children living in an area of perennial malaria transmission and to determine if these children who test negative for malaria by rapid diagnostic test receive any benefit from antimalarial therapy.
Previous studies have shown "Doing the month", a traditional practice for postpartum women in China and other Asian countries, may be associated with higher prevalence of postpartum problems. The current multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT) aims to evaluate outcomes of diet and lifestyle interventions in Chinese postpartum women.
