Filter by:Cervical cancer is a relatively common cancer among women living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). This study will test women for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection of the cervix. The main purpose of this study is to determine the best way to test for damaged areas of the cervix. Damaged areas of the cervix should be treated and removed to prevent cancer of the cervix. Women in this study will be seen once, twice or three times in a year. Women will provide several samples related to screening for cervical cancer including a swab of the cervix, a self-collected swab of the vagina and urine. Women will have a detailed examination of the cervix called colposcopy and have a few biopsies, or small pinches of the cervix, to look for areas at risk for turning into cancer. If HPV of the cervix is found but treatment of the cervix is not indicated, women will return in 6 months and in 12 months to repeat these tests. Most women will only need 1 visit. Women found to have damaged areas of the cervix at risk for turning into cancer will be referred for treatment. This protocol will compare different tests to understand the best test to identify women at risk for cervical cancer.
A single-blind, randomized, and probiotic-treatment including adult women with vaginitis and/or HPV positive. After oral probiotics, all participants will be followd-up cervical swabs and vaginal microbiome alteration till the end of the study.
This research is a clinical trial aimed at improving the gut microbiome of patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) through a temple stay experience. Participants in the study are expected to participate in a temple stay experience for a maximum of 8 days. During the temple stay experience, participants are required to fill out a daily symptom questionnaire related to irritable bowel syndrome and record their diet and bowel movements using a dedicated mobile application. Upon completion of the temple stay, participants will conduct an evaluation of personal satisfaction with the experience. Through this, the study aims to collect and analyze data related to the Templestay experience with the goal of improving the gut microbiome of patients with IBS.
Women Living with HIV Infection （WLHIV）are intended to acquire HPV infection which usually contributes to variable cervical lesions. we hypothesize that vaginal microbiota imbalance may make WLHIV prone to HPV infection，thereafter results in severe cervical lesion.
Catheter-related bloodstream infections are associated with increased mortality, morbidity, and length of hospital stay. The incidence has decreased significantly with the strict implementation of preventive bundle cares and checklists in intensive care units. Bathing with solutions containing chlorhexidine has been included in preventive strategies in recent years. Although some studies have shown that chlorhexidine bathing reduces the frequency of hospital-associated infections, there are important differences in management of practice and adherence to practice in different facilities. The majority of the studies conducted include adult patients. According to the CDC guidelines, chlorhexidine bathing is recommended for children over 2 months of age to prevent catheter-related bloodstream infection. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of daily bathing with 2% chlorhexidine gluconate solution in preventing catheter-related bloodstream infections in pediatric patients with temporary central venous catheters.
NeoDeco is a pragmatic, multicenter, parallel group, cluster randomised hybrid effectiveness-implementation study with baseline assessment, wash-in period and staggered randomisation. All sites will be offered the implementation support for optimised Kangaroo Care (KC) as part of the study; however, intervention sites will be randomised to immediate receipt of implementation support whereas standard care sites will be offered this after the study period.
This is an 8 to14-week three-arm randomized controlled in children 8 to 12 years old. The main purpose of the study is to evaluate if stevia (as with other sweeteners and consistent with prior research in children and adults) has benefits for weight control and metabolic function relative to caloric sweeteners, and whether it provides benefits in this regard similar to water.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of sofosbuvir/daclatasvir combination for children aged ≥ 6 years old and adolescents with active HCV infection in Cambodia
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the outcomes of High-volume saline irrigation vs Povidone-iodine solution cleaning of the intraoperative incision wound in preventing superficial surgical site infections in patients undergoing emergency laparotomies. The main question it aims to answer are: - Incidence of SSI after intervention - Length of hospital stay Participants will be randomly assigned to two groups receiving either of the two groups: Group A: 1000ml of IOWI with saline solution prior to incision closure Group B: The incisional wound will be closed conventionally without irrigation. Researchers will compare groups A( experimental group) and B (control group) to compare the incidence of superficial surgical site infections after intervention.
This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of Carrimycin tablets in hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis patients with Carbapenem-resistant infections.
