Filter by:This prospective case-control study aims to evaluate the immune function and find PD-1 antibody efficacy predictors on Chronic Active Epstein-Barr Virus Infection and Epstein-Barr virus-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis by detecting lymphocyte subsets proportions in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and the positive proportion of PD-1, PD-L1 and other indicators in each lymphocyte subsets in healthy people and patients using flow cytometry before and after the initial PD-1 therapy.
The purpose of this retrospective study is to assess the treatment benefits of probiotic Streptococcus salivarius K12 for the prevention of recurrent bacterial and viral infections of the pharynx, tonsils and ears in children under 3 years of age.
This is a Phase 4 blinded, randomized, active-controlled, non-inferiority trial. Persons of any gender identity will be eligible. Final evaluable population will include a minimum 596 individuals: 298 persons assigned female sex at birth (AFAB) with confirmed urogenital chlamydia (CT) and 298 persons assigned male at birth (AMAB) with confirmed rectal chlamydia (CT). Approximately 664 participants will be enrolled to achieve a minimum 596 participants who contribute primary outcome data. Randomization will be stratified by study site and sex at birth: 332 persons assigned female sex at birth (AFAB) and 332 persons assigned male sex at birth (AMAB). Participants will be randomized 1:1 to a 3-day regimen of doxycycline or a 7-day regimen of doxycycline. The study blind will be maintained by providing 7 days of identical pre-filled blister packs, one with 3 days of active treatment and 4 days of placebo, and the other with 7 days of active treatment. Participants will be asked to return 28 days after randomization (at day 29), at which time they will be re-tested for chlamydia (CT) using a laboratory-based chlamydia (CT) nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT).
The purpose of the study is to compare the effect of consuming full-fat (regular) and fat-free (skim) milk, as well as full-fat and fat-free yogurt (a fermented dairy product), on microorganisms in your gut as well as the products produced by the gut microbes. We will also determine whether consuming these dairy products affects risk factors for heart disease.The findings of the study will help us determine if heart disease risk factors are modified by the fat content and fermentation of milk. The results may facilitate refinement of public health dietary guidance for cardiovascular disease risk reduction.
This is a prospective observational cohort study designed to collect data on patients who received REBYOTA™ for the prevention of rCDI in the routine care setting. As all data collected for this study are observational, the decision to prescribe REBYOTA™ is at the treating physician's discretion and independent from the decision to enroll the patient in the study. Data will be collected from patients' medical records after obtaining informed consent. Data about clinical history, CDI events (primary and recurrent: severity, treatment), CDI-related symptoms, treatments, medical procedures, Adverse Events(AEs), and healthcare resource utilization (i.e., hospitalizations and re-admissions) will be collected through 6 months of follow-up from the date of REBYOTA™ administration.
The goal of this prospective multicentric study is to evaluate the presence of long-term pulmonary sequelae in patients who had required hospitalization for treating COVID-19 pneumonia, trough chest CT and pulmonary function tests (PFT). Secondly we would like to evaluate the possible correlation between the chest CT findings and pulmonary function tests pre-existing co-morbidities and type of therapy used during hospitalization.
With the decline of virulence after the mutation of the SARS-CoV-2 , based on the national life and health and national development needs, the domestic SARS-CoV-2 infection epidemic prevention policy has changed, and the number of people infected by the SARS-CoV-2 has increased. Nutritional status is an indicator of human health and plays an important role in fighting disease. Malnutrition has been found to correlate with prognosis in patients infected with the SARS-CoV-2 infection . Timely identification and assessment of the patient's nutritional status and early implementation of relevant nutritional intervention are conducive to the recovery of the patient's condition. In clinical practice, it is necessary to improve nutrition as an aspect of the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, but there is still a lack of relevant nutritional indicators or models to simply and accurately assess the nutritional status of patients.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of PNI, NRI, GNRI, albumin level, vitamin D, chest muscle area and density on the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, to find the nutritional predictors of severe disease in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, and to establish a simpler and more accurate nutritional evaluation model. To provide evidence for targeted nutritional interventions in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection.
This randomized controlled trial evaluates the efficacy of couples HIV testing and counseling retesting. Eligible couples previously enrolled in NCT05000866 are invited to participate. Those who do are randomized to either couples HIV testing and counseling (CHTC) retesting or an individual HIV testing control. Follow-ups occur 3 and 6 months post intervention.
A placebo controlled clinical trial investigating the safety and immunogenicity of GBS6 in pregnant women with and without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and their infants
The goal of this quasi-experimental before/after study without equivalent control group is to to describe the prevalence of frail, pre-fragile and robust individuals in the study group before and after a multifactorial intervention in in frail HIV patients. The main questions it aims to answer are after a multifactorial intervention: 1. To describe the sociodemographic, viroimmunological and ART exposure factors of fragile individuals compared to pre-fragile and robust individuals. 2. To describe adherence to the Mediterranean diet in frail individuals compared to pre-frail and robust individuals. 3. To describe the presence of anxiety and depression in frail individuals with respect to pre-fragile and robust individuals. 4. To describe the analytical parameters and inflammatory markers of frail individuals with respect to pre-fragile and robust individuals. 5. To describe the diversity and composition of the intestinal microbiota of frail individuals with respect to pre-fragile and robust individuals. 6. To describe the body composition of frail individuals with respect to pre-fragile and robust individuals. 7. To describe the factors associated with progression to frailty or robustness after six months of a multifactorial intervention.
