Filter by:1. To determine the prevalence and incidence of anal HSIL and associated risk factors among MSM who initiate ART during AHI.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of eravacycline compared to ertapenem in treating participants with complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI).
D²EFT is a randomised, open-label study in HIV-1 infected patients failing first-line antiretroviral therapy (ART). The study compares 2 regimens of second-line ART (dolutegravir and darunavir pharmaco-enhanced with ritonavir and dolutegravir and 2 prespecified NRTIs) with the WHO recommended regimen of 2NRTIs plus a ritonavir-boosted PI (Standard of Care (SOC)). 1,010 participants from 14 predominantly low-middle income countries will be followed for 96 weeks with the primary endpoint at week 48. The design is based on the hypothesis that one or both of the new regimens will be non-inferior to SOC in terms of virologic control while being easier to take, economically viable and affording simplification of treatment programs.
The purpose of this study is to validate the diagnostic accuracy of a novel host-response based diagnostic tool for differentiating between bacterial and viral etiologies in adult patients aged 18 years and older with clinical suspicion of lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI)
The problem of interest is that doctors are looking for new antibiotic treatments for bone and joint infections. Treatment for bone and joint infection is not standardized, which allows a wide range of antibiotic therapy to potentially be given. A type of bacteria called S. aureus is the most common cause of bone and joint infection. Methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA) is a type of bacteria that is not killed by some antibiotics, and it is increasingly common in U.S. and non-U.S. medical centers. This problem will be studied by investigating whether an antibiotic called tedizolid is tolerable, safe and effective to treat bone and joint infections.
Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a major cause of morbidity and mortality for recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT). we propose to study the immunologic and virologic effects of donor derived CMV specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CMV-CTL) given to transplant recipients CMV antigen peptides will be used to induce the CMV antigen specific T lymphocytes derived from donor peripheral blood mononuclear cells for a period of 18~21 days.The patients will receive CMV-CTL cells when they are sero-positive for CMV-DNA 30 days after transplant. The CMV-DNA level will be monitored weekly after transfusion.
This is a 1:1 randomized double-blind Placebo-controlled moncenter Phase IV study to investigate whether a successful interferon-free treatment of HCV-infection with ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir (OBV/PTV/r) in combination with dasabuvir (DSV) improves the patients' attention ability as compared to placebo as measured with the Att Test Sum Score change from baseline to week 12. A total of 30 patients with non-cirrhotic genotype 1b HCV infection will be randomly assigned to receive 12 weeks verum followed by 12 weeks Placebo (arm A) versus 12 weeks Placebo followed by 12 weeks verum (arm B). Patients will be followed up for 48 weeks.
Australia was one of the countries to implement a universal school-based male vaccination program - in 2013. This research project will examine the prevalence of HPV among young men who have sex with men (MSM) who have been offered school-based HPV vaccination.
This is a retrospective chart review using Electronic Privacy Identification Center (EPIC) database to determine if the addition of cranberry juice capsules to our discharge medication regimen for patients discharged home with an indwelling urinary catheter following pelvic floor gynecology surgery reduced the incidence of UTI.
The goal of this study is to evaluate whether using vancomycin orally can prevent CDI in patients who are colonized with C. diff who are admitted to the hospital and need antibiotics for another infection.
