Filter by:A multicenter, randomized, blind, controlled trial design was used to select 240 tuberculosis (TB) patients, 120 non-tuberculous community population with other lung diseases, and 420 healthy community population without other lung diseases who met the inclusion criteria of this study. Blood supply specific gamma-interferon (T-SPOT) detection was performed first. Then, EC and Purified Protein derivation of tuberculin (TB-PPD) skin tests were performed on both arms, and the recorded results were observed. The first 24 cases of TB patients, the first 12 cases of non-tuberculous community population with other lung diseases, and the first 42 cases of healthy community population without other lung diseases were included in the trial subgroup. Physical examination, blood routine, urine routine, liver and kidney function, and electrocardiogram tests were required before and 7 days after skin test after study number assignment.
This is an exploratory study to evaluate the effect of adjunctive clindamycin in the treatment of skin and soft-tissue infections due to Staphylococcus aureus in patients from Sierra Leone. The study hypothesizes that clindamycin, when added to routine treatment, will lead to a more rapid clinical resolution and less frequent recurrences of infection.
The fast increase of Multidrug-resistant microorganisms (MDRO) due to the high amount of antimicrobials being poorly used may be limited by better regulating antimicrobial usage globally. The goal of this observational study is the performance of the MeMed BV® test in the MeMed Key® device at the emergency department to a) support the differential diagnosis between bacterial and viral infections of the respiratory tract and b) provide evidence of how the use of this test may limit gut colonization by MDRO.
The purpose of this study is to measure the proportion of participants who are infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) (positive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction [RT-PCR] test) and have coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) symptom(s) with S-217622 tablets compared with placebo tablets in participants who are household contacts of an individual with symptomatic COVID-19.
The Coronavirus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has caused an international healthcare crisis and produced a large healthcare burden. Diabetes mellitus is a common disease that can be controlled via pharmacologic agents; however, many patients have poor glycemic control, leading to disease-related complications. Diabetes mellitus has been reported in the literature to be associated with increasing morbidity and mortality in COVID-19 patients, and some hypothesize that this is due to insulin dysregulation propagating a pro-inflammatory state. The investigators aim to contribute to the growing body of literature that assesses the associations between glucose homeostasis and COVID-19 disease severity and mortality.
Voriconazole Inhalation Powder is available on an expanded access basis to patients with pulmonary aspergillosis for up to 12 weeks. Duration of treatment may be extended on a case-by-case basis depending on drug availability and after discussion with the Sponsor.
The trial "Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Preliminary Efficacy of herbal products for the treatment of acute respiratory viral infections including SARS-CoV2 in Uganda; Phase 2A Open Label Clinical Trial" is currently being implemented under the Clinical Trials of Natural therapeutics Program. The trial sample size is 510, and the participants include adults (18 years or more) who fulfill the case definitions of acute respiratory infections (ARI), test positive for one of the target respiratory viruses, are negative for TB on GeneXpert; non-pregnant/non-breast-feeding females, have no history of hypersensitivity to any of the investigational products, and have given written consent to participate in the trial. The overall objective of the trial is to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of TazCoV and Vidicine for the treatment of acute respiratory viral infections including (SARS-CoV2, RSV and Influenza A/B) in Uganda. Primary objectives include: 1. To determine the safety and pharmacokinetics of TAZCOV and Vidicine herbal products among adult participants patients with acute respiratory infections including those due to laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV2, RSV and Influenza A/B 2. To determine the extent of SARS-CoV2, RSV, and Influenza A/B viral clearance among adult participants patients with acute viral respiratory infection treated using TAZCOV and Vidicine 3. To establish time-to-remission of symptoms among participants patients with acute respiratory infections including those due to laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV2, RSV and Influenza treated with TAZCOV or Vidicine 4. To evaluate disease progression among participants patients with acute respiratory infections including those due to laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV2, RSV and Influenza treated with TAZCOV or Vidicine The end points include: Solicited and unsolicited side effects (mild, moderate, severe, adverse and serious adverse events), days to viral clearance (RT-PCR negativity) for those with a positive viral test at enrolment and time to presenting symptom resolution. The Pharmacokinetic endpoints include: the maximum concentration of IMP in plasma [Cmax], time taken for the IMP plasma concentration to reach maximum levels [Tmax] and time taken for the concentration of the IMP in the plasma or the total amount in the body to be reduced by 50%.
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the most common bacterial infections in women. 50% of women experiencing at least one UTI in their lifetime with an annual prevalence of 0.5-0.7%. An interventional, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will be conducted to investigate the effect of a probiotic strains on the urinary tract microbiota in participants with recurrent urinary tract infection (rUTI). The study duration will be 6 and a half months, including 6 months product intake. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the three study groups: control group with placebo administration, probiotic administration group (1 dose) and probiotic administration group (2 doses).
The aim of this study is to find out the role of Covid-19 in salivary gland infection and its recurrence.
Study purpose: to explore the entire spectrum of proteomic and genomic changes (amongst others) involved in diseases and in healthy/control populations. The Study is designed to discover biomarkers, develop and validate diagnostic assays, instruments and therapeutics as well as other medical research. Specifically, researchers may analyze proteins, RNA, DNA copy number changes, including large and small (1,000-100,000 kb) scale rearrangements, transcription profiles, epigenetic modifications, sequence variation, and sequence in both diseased tissue and case-matched germline DNA from Subjects.
