Filter by:The goal of this survey is to learn about the current status of the diagnosis and treatment of invasive fungal infections among intensive care physicians in Sichuan Province (IFS). Its primary focus lies on answering the following questions: ①awareness and proficiency in diagnosis and treatment; ②the use of antifungal medications; ③the application of microbiological identification and diagnostic methods. We aim to analyze the problems and deficiencies that existed among intensive care physicians in order to provide a basis for the development of targeted training and intervention measures.
Brief Research Proposal: Non-Invasive Detection of Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis in ICU Patients Background: Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis (IPA) is a critical threat to patients in ICUs, especially those undergoing mechanical ventilation. Traditional diagnostic methods are invasive and carry risks. This study proposes a non-invasive, innovative approach utilizing galactomannan (GM) analysis in Exhaled Breath Condensate (EBC) for early IPA detection. Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of measuring GM levels in EBC for detecting IPA in mechanically ventilated patients, comparing it against the conventional Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid (BALF)-GM measurements. Methods: A clinical trial will be conducted with 75 mechanically ventilated patients suspected of having IPA. The study will compare the effectiveness of EBC-GM levels against BALF-GM levels in diagnosing IPA, focusing on sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy. The novel, self-designed EBC collection device will facilitate the safe and efficient collection of EBC from patients. Expected Outcomes: Validation of EBC-GM Diagnostic Accuracy: Anticipate demonstrating that EBC-GM levels provide a comparable diagnostic accuracy to BALF-GM, establishing a non-invasive, safer alternative for IPA detection. Implementation of a Non-Invasive Diagnostic Tool: The study aims to introduce a non-invasive diagnostic approach that can potentially replace more risky, invasive methods, improving patient care in ICUs. Contribution to Clinical Practice: By providing a new method for early and safer detection of IPA, the study is expected to influence clinical guidelines and practices in the management of critically ill, ventilated patients. Significance: This research has the potential to revolutionize the diagnosis of fungal infections in critically ill patients by offering a non-invasive, accurate, and safer diagnostic tool, thereby improving patient outcomes and reducing the risks associated with invasive diagnostic procedures.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of mogamulizumab (KW-0761) in chinese subjects with mycosis fungoides or sézary syndrome previously treated with systemic therapy
Mold invasive infections are associated with an important mortality despite optimization of the antifungal treatment. In a few case reports, immune checkpoints inhibitors, initially developed for neoplastic diseases, have shown a potential beneficial effect in such devastating infections by restoring an efficient immune response. The investigators propose a longitudinal monitoring of the adaptative immune response, notably immune checkpoint expression on T cells, during mold invasive infections to help identify the patients who could benefit from the adjunction of immunotherapy and the optimal timing of such strategy.
This is an open label, single arm, single-center, pilot study of concurrent phototherapy and POTELIGEO (mogamulizumab-kpkc) in early-stage mycosis fungoides.
We seek to characterise the burden and outcomes of and understand the current experience of people who inject drugs admitted to hospital with invasive injecting-related infections, in order to implement and evaluate strategies to improve completion of therapy and reduce patient-directed discharges, with ultimate benefit to the patient and health service.
To follow up with all our participants with juvenile-onset mycosis fungoides, check on their status, and ask them or their parents about long term outcomes associated with their condition.
This is a single-center retrospective study. The clinical data of patients with Acute-on-chronic Hepatitis B liver failure who were hospitalized in the Department of Hepatology, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from January 2010 to July 2023 were collected.
The objective of this clinical study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of Valchlor versus HyBryte following 12 weeks of treatment.
This was a prospective clinical study that all voriconazole-treated adult Chinese patients with invasive pulmonary infection admitted to Zhengzhou Central Hospital affiliated to Zhengzhou University from July 2018 to June 2023. The initial voriconazole serum trough concentration, Correlation of various factors, and risk prediction factors for voriconazole serum trough concentration and hepatotoxicity were compared between elderly and non-elderly patients.
