INVICTUS PED primary objective is to show the non-inferiority of an empirical antibiotic therapeutic management guided by the early detection of integrons in the urine, compared to a usual empirical antibiotic treatment, for the recovery of children admitted to the pediatric emergency department (ED) with a non-severe urinary tract infection (UTI) with fever
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of interferon-gamma by subcutaneous injection in complex treatment of patients with co-infection of HIV and pulmonary tuberculosis and to determine the rational of its use.
The investigators aim to carry out a retrospective observational study, analysing lung ultrasound images from patients who have presented to A&E for routine diagnostic purposes (ruling out cardiogenic pulmonary oedema, Pulmonary embolism and pericardial effusions) and systematically assessing for abnormalities typical for COVID-19 infection (Pleural irregularities, B lines, consolidations, pleural effusions). Doing this, the investigators will also develop a suggestion for a standardised technique for lung ultrasound which can be transferred to other clinical settings (Intensive Care, Acute medical Unit) and could form the basis for an international standard. Thirdly, the investigators aim to correlate our findings to clinical severity judged by oxygenation status on arrival in ED. To the investigators' knowledge, this is the first study of this kind.
To analyze how the COVID 19 pandemia has affected the patient's accesses to the Ophthalmological Emergency Department of a tertiary referral center in northern Italy, during the lockdown period. We will collect data from different periods in 2020, in which the Italian Governement called the total lockdown to same periods of the 2019. The charts of all patients will be evaluated to analyze demographics and clinical data
The investigators will perform single-dose pharmacokinetic (PK) studies in humans following administration of drugs with known microbiome derived metabolism (MDM) in parallel with preclinical studies. By directly comparing laboratory measurements to clinical results, the investigators will be able to confirm the relevance of MDM in vivo, create microbiome-dependent PK profiles of the MDM positive drugs, and establish methodology to capture the contribution of MDM to inter-individual variability in clinical drug PK profiles.
Gabon is the 3rd country most affected by COVID-19 behind Cameroon and Democratic Republic of Congo in Central Africa, with 8860 cases and 54 deaths in critically ill patients, since the first confirmed case of COVID-19 on the 10th of March 2020 (https://africacdc.org/covid-19/). Most of the individuals infected by SARS-CoV-2 are asymptomatic and they represent a major source of viral spread. To date, African countries have been less affected by deaths caused by the Covid-19 pandemic compared to other countries. It is currently unknown why Africa has avoided more deaths and appears to not simply be due to a lack of testing, since the overall death rate has not increased. Better quality data on seroprevalence in different African regions and proven explanations of the differences between Africa and other continents, are urgently needed. The aim of this study is to learn about the proportion of people after a first pic of transmission, who have been exposed to COVID-19 in Gabon by testing for plasma antibodies to the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The overall goal of this study is to examine the trend of specific anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in Gabonese population.
This prospective, multicenter, non-interventional trial aims to study the association between TTV viral load and the occurrence of rejection or infection during the first year after transplantation. The TTV viral loads, taken once a month during the first year after the transplant, will be measured at the end of the study.
The GW Medical Faculty Associates recently launched a remote monitoring program for patients diagnosed with COVID-19. Patients are provided with a home pulse oximeter and thermometer. Participants complete daily surveys about their symptoms and vital signs and are escalated to receive phone calls and video visits if responses are abnormal. Investigators would like to complete a study of the program to understand: 1. Operational parameters of program performance, such as how many patients were enrolled and how many patients completed monitoring 2. Clinical course of patients, including their reported symptoms over time and clinical endpoints such as hospitalization or ICU admission 3. Patient satisfaction with program
The study is a longitudinal, observational cohort study of people who are newly-diagnosed with HIV who consent to recency testing and participate in index testing services, and their disclosed contacts. The study will evaluate the impact of recency testing on HIV positive yield of index testing among the contacts of newly diagnosed people living with HIV and the incidence of adverse events or social harm as a result of returning recency results among newly diagnosed people living with HIV.
