Filter by:Recent advances have been made in prevention of the viral infection via vaccines but there is still need for effective treatment options for patients. Novel therapies need to be developed to further improve clinical outcomes. The biggest medical challenge in the response to COVID-19 is ARDS requiring hospitalization in an intensive care setting and ventilator dependence. Intravenously administered umbilical cord derived exosomes and stem cells have been reported in literature to alleviate pulmonary distress in such patients. The purpose of this study is to explore the safety and benefits of intravenous administration of WJPure and EVPure in the treatment of COVID-19 patients with moderate to severe ARDS. .
With the change in environment and lifestyle, and the improvement of people's understanding of PCOS, the incidence of PCOS is increasing worldwide. According to statistics, the prevalence of PCOS in premenopausal women is as high as 5-20%. Lifestyle interventions are the main treatment option for patients with PCOS. In addition, research has shown that digital therapy can effectively improve behavior changes in diet, exercise, and medication adherence, predict disease progression, reduce the frequency of disease-related symptoms, and promote effective disease management. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of digital intervention versus traditional metformin monotherapy in patients with PCOS.
The primary objectives of this study are to investigate the immediate and short-term effect of heel fat pad loop taping (experimental intervention) vs. control taping (control intervention) on pain and function in individuals with heel fat pad syndrome (HFPS). For mechanistic understanding of the effect of the loop taping, we will assess the immediate effect of taping on the pressure pain threshold and heel fat pad thickness.
Despite a clear indication of grade Ia, cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is dramatically underutilized after acute coronary syndrome with less than 30% of patients addressed in France. Mobile technology has the potential to overcome barriers to access to cardiac rehabilitation and may be a useful tool for increasing participation. However, studies have to prove this type of care is as effective as traditional center based cardiac rehabilitation.
Purposes of the study To investigate the effect of adding Short foot exercise on patellofemoral pain syndrome on knee Pain, Function, Balance and abductors, quadriceps Muscle strength.
The ANISE-II study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase IIa proof-of-concept trial. Thirty patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) are randomized in a 2:1 ratio to either anifrolumab or placebo treatment for 24 weeks. Main inclusion criteria are fulfilment of the ACR/EULAR classification criteria for pSS, disease duration of ≤10 years, and an ESSDAI and/or ESSPRI of ≥5 (at least 50% of patients need to fulfil the ESSDAI ≥5 criterion). The primary outcome measure is Composite of Relevant Endpoints for Sjögren's Syndrome (CRESS) response at week 24.
Since its initial description in December 2019 in Wuhan , China, Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has rapidly evolved into a worldwide pandemic affecting millions of lives . Unlike adults, the vast majority of children with COVID-19 have mild symptoms. However, there are children who have significant respiratory disease, and some children may develop a hyper inflammatory response similar to what has been observed in adults with COVID-19. Furthermore, in late April 2020, reports emerged of children with a different clinical syndrome resembling Kawasaki disease (KD) and toxic shock syndrome; these patients frequently had evidence of prior exposure to SARS-CoV-2. The pathophysiology of MIS-C: Is unclear ,but it appears to be a consequence of a exacerbated immune system response or maladaptive response of the host .After the virus enters the human cells, the first line of defense against infection should be a quick and well-coordinated immune response ;however, when this mechanism is unregulated and excessive ,hyper inflammation can occur. Cytokines that play an important role in inducing immunity and immunopathology during infections in excess can cause the clinical syndrome known as cytokine storm. The inflammatory response caused by SARS-CoV-2appears to be the major cause of mortality in infected patients . The infection of dendritic cells or macrophages by SARS-CoV-2 induces the production of low levels of antiviral cytokines and increases the production of inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor[TNF], interleukin[IL]-1, IL-6,and interferon ).
The aim of the study is to confirm the association between hypermobile Ehlers Danlos syndrome (hEDS) and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) in patients with digestive disorders managed in allergology departments.
This is a non-interventional, multinational, multi-centre study with primary data collection, to further document the safety and efficacy of osilodrostat administered in routine clinical practice in patients treated with osilodrostat for endogenous Cushing's Syndrome
Introduction: Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is a common, costly and often persistent musculoskeletal problem. Radial shockwave (RSW) is one of the most common treatment for MFS. However, a recent systematic review found very low-level evidence to support its short-term benefit, due to poor methodological qualities. The authors therefore recommended further large scale, good quality placebo-controlled trials (RCT) in this area. Further still, previous studies have not considered the experiences of patient regarding this intervention. Study Objectives: To determine the effectiveness of RSW compared to placebo for the treatment of patients with MPS in neck and upper back, and to establish the experiences of patients receiving the treatment. Research Questions: Is RSW therapy more effective at improving MPS compared to a placebo? What are the experiences of patients with MPS receiving this treatment? Methods: A pragmatic double blind RCT to investigate the effectiveness of RSW on patients with MPS and a semi-structured-interview to investigate the patients' experience of receiving the treatment. Sample: 120 potential participants with MPS for the RCT and 20 participants for the semi-structured qualitative interview. Interventions: The Intervention group will receive a total of 6 sessions of RSW following manufacturer's parameters: 1.5 bar, pulses 2000, frequency 15 Hz (Time 3 minutes). The Control group will receive an identical treatment except that the they will receive a no energy shock of 0.3 bar, frequency 15 and no pulses. Outcome measures: Improvements in the patient's numeric pain scale (NPS), neck disability index (NDI), pressure pain threshold (PPT) and SF-12 questionnaires at 4, 8 and 12 weeks' follow-up between the two groups. Significance of the Study's Outcome: The expectation is that this study will add to the body of knowledge required to help patients, healthcare practitioners, policy makers and researchers make effective treatment choices on RSW in the management MFS.
