Filter by:Pilot study to determine feasibility for treating patients with two chronic inflammatory conditions of the urinary bladder: chronic interstitial cystitis and recurrent urinary tract infections using a standardized hyperbaric oxygen treatment plan. Presently there are no good treatments for these conditions and hyperbaric oxygen may be a safe and readily accessible therapy as it has proven successful an another type of chronic inflammatory condition of the urinary bladder known as "radiation cystitis". The study will determine if patients will consider this an acceptable treatment for their conditions and that it is well tolerated.
This was a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study in adult hospitalized patients to establish the safety and efficacy of ceftobiprole medocaril compared with vancomycin plus aztreonam in the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSIs).
Four healthy hookworm-naive volunteers will be exposed to 50 L3 Necator americanus larvae once and will retain infection for up to 2 years.
This is a cluster-randomized trial of nursing homes to assess whether decolonization with routine chlorhexidine bathing and periodic use of nasal antiseptics can reduce hospitalizations associated with infections, antibiotic utilization, and multi-drug resistant organism (MDRO) prevalence. The comparator arm will be routine bathing care.
Purpose: To study the changes in the microbiome and stool composition in patients with Clostridium Difficile Infection (CDI) who undergo Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT), along with changes in their clinical characteristics.
Background: Some blood and immune disorders can be helped with HSCT. This is allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The person who gets the stem cells has their immune system suppressed. This is done to help prevent their body from rejecting the transplant. During this time, the person is at a high risk to get viral infections. Researchers want to study the records of people who had transplants a few years ago. They want to look at how often certain viral complications happened. Objective: To study how often certain viral complications occurred after HSCT and what risks factors were involved. Eligibility: Records will be reviewed. No participants will be contacted. Design: Researchers will review medical records from the NIH Clinical Center. The records will be from people who had HSCT between 2010 and 2015 when they were between 4 and 85 years old. They already gave consent for their data to be studied. Data collected will include: Vital statistics like age and sex Viral status of the recipient and donor Reason for transplant Transplant details How the immune system recovered after transplant If the recipient got graft versus host disease Any infections Overall survival
This was a multicenter, randomized study to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy of VRC-ZKADNA090-00-VP (Zika virus wildtype DNA vaccine) or placebo. In Part A, the primary objective was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the vaccine in different vaccination regimens. In Part B, the primary objectives were to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the vaccine compared to placebo.
Subjects with recurrent C. difficile infection will receive an oral dose of CP101 capsules one time in Treatment Group I or matching placebo one time in Treatment Group II. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of CP101 to prevent recurrence of C. difficile. Subjects with confirmed C. difficile recurrence within 8 weeks after administration of study drug (CP101 or placebo) may be eligible to enroll in the open-label extension study (CP101-CDI-E02) and will receive CP101.
The investigators hypothesize that long-term fermented high-fibre rye intake may reduce the Helicobacter pylori infection through dampening inflammation and thereby leading to lower adherence of the bacteria to surfaces.The investigators further hypothesize that that inflammation could be a potential causal link between HP infection and insulin resistance, a risk factor for type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
Postoperative urinary tract infections (UTIs) affect 20-30% of patients undergoing elective gynecologic surgery and have a significant socioeconomic impact and cost. Preoperative antibiotics, sterile operating techniques, postoperative antibiotic and non-antibiotic medical therapies have been utilized to attempt to decrease this rate with little improvement. Utilization of an intraoperative antibiotic cystoscopic irrigant may decrease postoperative UTIs. The investigators have designed a prospective randomized controlled study to evaluate the effectiveness of an antibiotic cystoscopic fluid in preventing postoperative urinary tract infections in women undergoing elective pelvic floor surgery with cystoscopy.
