Filter by:The primary goal of the study is to evaluate in patients on three times a week on-line HDF the efficacy, in terms of toxin removal and modulation of the inflammatory state, of two different dialyzers: Helixone versus Asimmetric cellulose triacetate (ATA).
The purpose of the study is to examine the feasibility and safety of twelve weeks oral supplementation of Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in older survivors of cancer
Preventive anti-inflammatory diet to reduce gastro-intestinal inflammation in FAP patients: a prospective pilot study
To investigate the outcomes of patients undergoing bilateral RLE surgery with treatment of dexamethasone intracanilicular insert compared to topical standard care steroid. Desiged to look at patient preference comparing the insert to drops and will also look at patient outcomes including inflammatin and risk of cystoid macular edema post-operatively.
This randomized, controlled, blinded clinical trial evaluated the effectiveness of different desensitizing protocols in preventing pulp inflammation after bleaching treatment with 35% hydrogen peroxide (PH) (Whiteness PH 35%).
The intent of this study is to determine the effect of a smartphone application used in conjunction with interproximal cleaning on localized, inflamed periodontal pockets of periodontal maintenance patients. The hypothesis to be tested is that the use of the smartphone application will decrease clinical parameters of inflammation (probing depths, bleeding on probing) as well as the pro-inflammatory biomarker (IL-1B) as determined in gingival crevicular fluid sampling.
The purpose of this study is to determine if adding dietary fiber, such as inulin, to a diet that does not have enough fiber would raise the levels of potentially beneficial bacteria, such as Bifidobacterium, in the gut. There is evidence to suggest that these microbes can affect gut health and immune response, including to vaccines. The investigators will examine how inulin in the diet (compared to the maltodextrin control) (1) causes changes in the composition and function of the gut microbes, (2) reduces gut inflammation and gut leakiness caused by the vaccine, (3) increases immune response to vaccination, and (4) changes the expression of important adhesion molecules on the surface of white blood cells. Intestinal and whole-body responses will be measured in all participants.
To assess the safety of Dextenza compared to an active control, prednisolone acetate suspension, for the treatment of postoperative pain and inflammation following ocular surgery for pediatric cataract.
Beginning in mid-March 2020, pediatricians in communities in Western Europe, the UK, and the Eastern U.S. that had been severely affected by the Covid-19 pandemic noted an increased number of children presenting with fever and evidence of severe inflammation who required admission to intensive care. The syndrome was branded by the CDC in the U.S. as Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C). The most severely affected children presented with heart failure leading to shock and the absence of significant pulmonary disease. The clinical presentation in these patients shared many features with Kawasaki disease (KD), a self-limited pediatric vasculitis that can result in coronary artery aneurysms.The inflammatory markers, however, were much higher even than KD shock syndrome, a variant of KD presenting with distributive shock and requiring inotropic and vasoactive support in the ICU. Some patients were polymerase chain reaction (PCR)+ for SARS-CoV-2 while most were virus-negative but had detectable antibody suggesting that MIS-C was an immune-mediated reaction to antecedent exposure to the virus. While patients were being diagnosed with shock and MIS-C, children with a milder version of MIS-C that shared many features of KD were being diagnosed in these same regions.
The purpose of this study is to determine if twice or three times daily supplementation of Lactobacillus acidophilus MPH734 (Lacto-FreedomTM, or LF), for one week, affects acute (immediate), subacute (7 days), and post-treatment discontinuation (30-, 60-, and 90- day) lactose metabolism, gastrointestinal symptoms, and clinical markers of inflammation and safety compared to a placebo.
