Filter by:The risk for invasive fungal infections is high in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants (< 1500 g) and highest for infants born at the youngest gestational ages who survive past the immediate postnatal period. Invasive fungal infections (IFIs) represent an increasing cause of severe morbidity and mortality in most neonatal intensive care units. Lactoferrin (LF) is secreted by epithelial cells into exocrine fluids: seminal fluid, tears, saliva, uterine secretions, and milk. LF is involved in innate immunity mechanisms with several documented anti-infective properties, including antifungal activity. Probiotics are microorganisms that are believed to provide health benefits when consumed. It is possible to adopt measures to modify the flora in our bodies and to replace the harmful microbes by useful microbes. There are certain commercially available strains of probiotic bacteria from the Bifido bacterium and Lactobacillus genera when taken by mouth in daily doses possess treatment efficacy
Clinically, patients with persistent HR-HPV infection for more than 18 months or HR-HPV infection with CIN2 + need regular colposcopic biopsy to assess the outcome and progression of the disease. A total of 1000 participants with persistent HR-HPV infection (100 cases/center) were recruited from multiple centers, and HPV integration status and vaginal flora diversity were sequenced at baseline, 6th month, 12th month and 24th month, respectively, through prospective cohort studies. And to evaluate the influence of HPV integration status and flora changes on the prognosis of women with persistent HR-HPV infection.
Primary Objective: - To evaluate the effects of synbiotics on infectious morbidity and growth while it is in place from 4 to 24 weeks of age. - To evaluate the effects of synbiotics on infectious morbidity and growth from 4 to 48 weeks of age. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the effects of synbiotics on growth from 4 to 72 weeks of age. - To evaluate the effects of synbiotics on infant neurodevelopment at 48 and 72 weeks of age. - To evaluate the effects of synbiotics on biological measurements while it is in place from 4 to 24 weeks of age. - To evaluate the effects of synbiotics on biological measurements from 4 to 48 weeks of age. - To evaluate the effects of synbiotics on gut microbiome and fecal short chain fatty acids from 4 to 72 weeks of age. - To investigate feasibility, acceptance, tolerability, and behavioral adherence with the intervention. - To investigate whether the synbiotics reduces infectious morbidity and improves growth in CHEU relative to CHUU. - To investigate whether infant gut microbiota composition, maturity and function, and markers of inflammation and HMOs at baseline and over time are associated with morbidity and poor growth in CHEU and CHUU.
Randomized, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the coadjuvant effect of a combination of L. plantarum and P. acidilactici probiotic strains, taken twice daily, in children 6 months to 5 years-old with upper respiratory tract infections with pharyngitis and/or tonsillitis. Main objective is to evaluate efficacy of this probiotic in reducing fever and pain, as well to evaluate its safety.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of Recombinant Human Papillomavirus Bivalent (Types 16,18) Vaccine (Escherichia coli) （HPV）and Measles Mumps and Rubella Combined Vaccine, Live（MMR）
This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple dose, dose escalation study in healthy participants, investigating the safety, tolerability, recovery, and PD of multiple oral administrations of SNIPR001.
An adequate bowel preparation is essential for a high quality of colonscopy. Nowdays, polyethyleneglyco is considered the most safe drug for bowel preparation, and is widely used around the world. However, previous study illustrated that bowel preparation by polyethyleneglyco could lead to qualitative changes in the intestinal microbiota both in mice and human. This study is aimed to investigate wether the changes in the intestinal microbiota could lead to a higher rate of intestinal infection.

Establishment of a biological bank of subjects vaccinated against SARS-Cov-2 infection (COVID-BioVac)
The purpose of this investigation is to better understand the wound microbiome in burn wounds and the role it plays in outcomes and complications related to treatment.
