Filter by:In this project, the clinical diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases was carried out for the population with suspected interstitial lung diseases selected from the community cohort, and the confirmed patients were included into the existing clinical cohort of interstitial lung diseases, forming an interstitial lung diseases special disease cohort consisting of 3,000 patients and corresponding matched control groups. According to characteristics of interstitial lung disease and the needs of National Key R&D Program of China, this study will formulate unified clinical follow-up strategy to do long-term standardized clinical follow-up in patients with interstitial lung disease. The detailed information for clinical diagnosis and treatment as well as biological samples were collected to identify disease phenotype and build the database and biological sample library for interstitial lung disease cohort study. This study aims to provide evidence for molecular classification, screening and validation of biomarkers as well as precise diagnosis and prevention in patients with interstitial lung disease.
This is a single-site feasibility pilot study to determine if patients with COPD with an increased risk of exacerbation will use an in-home COPD telemonitoring system for three months that collects lung measures, pulse oximetry, and medication compliance.
This study is a Phase 1 / 2 trial to determine the safety and efficacy of CYNK-001, an immunotherapy containing Natural Killer (NK) cells derived from human placental CD34+ cells and culture-expanded, in patients with moderate COVID-19 disease.
The patients enrolled in this study will be all patients entering triage with suspicion of SARS-CoV2. Planned activities are required by the nasopharyngeal swab in parallel with the analysis of the conjunctival swab to identify new potential alternative and equally effective diagnostic pathways. Simultaneously systemic data (as Pulmonary images, hematological parameters etc.) will be collected to observe a possible correlation between conjunctival swab positivity and systemic impairment.
Data from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients awaiting lung transplantation which performed a pulmonary rehabilitation program will be analyzed retrospectively. Acute exacerbations occur frequently in these patients and have a major impact on the course of the disease. This study investigates the prevalence and the impact of acute exacerbations during pulmonary Rehabilitation in patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients awaiting lung Transplantation that continued the Rehabilitation program despite an acute exacerbation. Data will be taken from the internal database of the reference center (Schoen Klinik Berchtesgadener Land, Schoenau, Germany) where these data were collected during clinical routine.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the joints, causing symmetric pain, stiffness, swelling, and limited motion and function of multiple joints, its fibro inflammatory manifestations may develop in other organs.
End-tidal CO2 measurements in children will be assessed for their accuracy with arterial CO2 measurements.
This study will test whether daily use of azithromycin will reduce the rate of exacerbations and improve lung ventilation and perfusion assessed by XE-MRI. The sensitivity of XE-MRI to detect COPD progression will be compared with standard clinical assessment measures including standard lung function tests, 6 minute walk test, and patient reported quality of life.
The aim of this study is to assess the impact of endocrine changes and their correction on survival and organ function in heart and lung transplant recipients. This study also features an investigation of the hormone levels and hormonal replacement therapy of the donors to study its role in the function of the transplanted hearts and lungs. Thyroid hormones (TSH, thyroxine, tri-iodothyronine), cortisol and the antidiuretic hormone will be studied. The former two hormone levels will be defined in the recipients just before transplantation and three days later. In the case of the donors all three hormones will be recorded at the time of the explantation. The investigators would like to record the hormonal replacement therapy in all our patients as well to see it's effect on survival and on the transplanted organ function. After the transplantation during the hospital stays all the important hemodynamic parameters, laboratory parameters, the result of the medical imagings, the medication, the length of ICU and hospital stay and the complications were recorded. Recipients will be followed for five years. Organ function will be assessed every three month for a year, after than every six month for further four years. Investigator would like to record the result of the cardiac echocardiography, spirometries, imaging, and complications. Our purpose is to compare these results against the endocrine disorders and the replacement therapy.
In this study, patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases (COPD) in stable and acute exacerbation stage were selected as the research objects, and the open, parallel and randomized controlled clinical trial design was adopted. Participants were randomly divided into trial group and control group. The control group was only given routine education, and the experimental group, on the basis of routine education, developed a respiratory rehabilitation training program lasting for 12 weeks according to the individual situation of patients. All participants were interviewed for 6 times (baseline and 4,8,12 weeks, 6 months and 12 months after admission) for a period of 1 year. Acute exacerbation, activity tolerance (6-minute walking test), living environment, clinical symptoms, lung function, airway inflammation water level index and biological samples were collected at each visit. At the same time, according to the diary filled in by the patients, the investigators can obtain the daily stay time indoors and outdoors and the longitude and latitude information of the regular stay fixed place, and geographic information system (GIS) is used to match the nearest environmental monitoring station, obtain the data of air pollutants and meteorological indicators (SO2, NO2, Co, O3, PM10, temperature and humidity, etc.), and estimate the individual exposure level of air pollutants.
