Filter by:COVID-19 is an infectious disease which presents a heterogenous clinical presentation. Recent investigations suggest that people who were infected by COVID-19 often develop physical disabilities (i.e. pain, fatigue) and neurological complications after hospital discharge. Many therapeutic approaches such as transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) have been proposed to minimize functional and structural impairments. Electroencephalogram (EEG) has been used in this population to assess electrophysiological changes in the brain. However, evidences about EEG utilization as efficacy predictor of tDCS in COVID-19 people rest inconclusive.Our objective is to evaluate EEG as neurobiological predictor marker of tDCS efficacy on fatigue, pain, quality of life, self-efficacy and functional capacity in the chronic phase of COVID-19.
COVID-19 is an infectious disease which presents a heterogenous clinical presentation. Recent investigations suggest that people who were infected by COVID-19 often develop physical disabilities (i.e. pain, fatigue) and neurological complications after hospital discharge. Many therapeutic approaches such as transcranial direct current stimulation high definition (HD-tDCS) have been proposed to minimize functional and structural impairments. Recently, I electroencephalogram (EEG) has been used as predictor of HD-tDCS effectiveness in diverse neurological populations. However, evidences about this tool utilization as efficacy predictor of tDCS in COVID-19 people rest inconclusive. Thereby, our objective is to evaluate HD-tDCS efficacy on fatigue, pain and functional capacity of patients with COVID-19 chronic.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of EOM613, a peptide nucleic acid with novel immune-modulating properties, in treating patients with severe COVID-19 infections. This proof-of-concept study is the first clinical trial of EOM613 in this patient population.
The purpose of this study is to test if visualizing the heart with cardiac MRI/echo will be important in the understanding cardiac function and prediction of cardiopulmonary symptoms, physical effort tolerance, and outcomes in COVID-19 survivors. If successful, the research will allow us to identify the causes of lasting cardiopulmonary symptoms and begin developing cardiac and lung directed therapies accordingly.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of low-frequency magnetic field in the hybrid treatment of COVID-19 patients, i.e., including magnetostimulation in the standard treatment. The authors evaluated among other things, the immunocorrective therapeutic effect of magnetostimulation, improving the defensive functions of the immune system and thus supporting the immune function by, among other things, suppressing the "cytokine storm". After application of low-frequency magnetic field in the hybrid treatment of COVID-19 patients, the authors expected: a decrease in the level of proinflammatory factors (IL - 6), restoration of homeostasis in the body with regards to the range of parameters evaluated in laboratory tests (WBC, MONO, PLT, CRP, d-dimers) and normalization of the following parameters: arterial blood pressure, the number of breaths/min, saturation, temperature.
Sotrovimab is a newly developed monoclonal antibody for the treatment of mild and moderate COVID-19 patient, who are at high risk for progression to severe COVID-19, including hospitalization or death. This includes, for example, individuals who are 65 years of age and older or individuals who have certain medical conditions. The safety and effectiveness of this investigational therapy continues to be evaluated for treatment of COVID-19. Sotrovimab is not authorized for patients who are hospitalized due to COVID-19 or require oxygen therapy due to COVID-19. As the clinical trial results are too preliminary for the drug to enter routine use in UAE the drug approved only for emergency use, until further evidence shows Sotrovimab is effective, so we thought about this study as a tool to assess the success of Emirats Health service (EHS) strategy for fighting against COVID-19 outside the hospital setting.
The study aims to characterize the distributive pattern of viruses in upper airway and its relationship with influenza seasons, symptomatology and exposure setting. A total of 500 adults residing in Hong Kong would be recruited, who would complete a questionnaire and return self-collected nasal and throat swabs for metagenomic analyses.
A Phase 2a, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose study in patients who are hospitalized with presumed pneumonia requiring supplemental oxygen therapy. The purpose of this study is to examine the safety, tolerability and efficacy of AV-001 Injection administration daily to the earlier of day 28 or EOT (day prior to hospital discharge). A total of 120 eligible patients (20 patients in each of cohort 1, 2 and 3 and 60 patients in cohort 4) will be recruited from up to 25 participating institutions/hospitals. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either AV-001 Injection or AV-001 placebo Injection, together with standard of care (SOC).
In this study the investigators record sounds of voice, breaths and cough of subjects who tested positive for COVID19. The investigators then feed these sounds into an artificial intelligence and see if it can learn to recognise features to make COVID19 diagnosis from these sounds in order to avoid to use swabs to test the general population.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Nirsevimab, in Healthy Preterm and Term Infants in China
