The present study (D5272C00001/Legacy #3151-201-008) aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of brazikumab in patients with moderately to severely active UC and will include assessments of clinical responses as demonstrated by improvement of symptoms and of colonic mucosal appearance as observed on endoscopy
The investigators want to evaluate the short duration HBOT can improve glycohemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, leukocyte count, and serum creatinine levels in patients with DFU (diabetic foot ulcer) Wagner 3-4.
The purpose of this study is to see how a diet that mimics fasting effects inflammation in patients with mild to moderate Ulcerative Colitis (UC). The diet may allow users to receive the benefits of fasting while also being able to enjoy food (the ingredients of which are GRAS (generally recognized as safe) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Research on dietary interventions and UC are very limited. Fasting mimicking diets (FMD) have been studied with support of the National Institute of Health and published in leading journals. This research investigates whether markers of inflammation decrease and/or quality of life increases after three cycles of a five-day period of the fasting mimicking diet, and may provide rationale for its use to treat UC.
Ulcerative colitis is a form of inflammatory bowel disease characterized by diffuse inflammation of the colonic mucosa. It affects the rectum and extends proximally along a variable length of the colon. Ulcerative colitis is a chronic condition with a relapsing remitting course. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a subset of adult stem cells residing in many tissues, including bone marrow (BM), adipose tissue, umbilical cord blood. Recent experimental findings have shown the ability of MSCs to home to damaged tissues and to produce paracrine factors with anti-inflammatory properties, potentially resulting in reduction of inflammation and functional recovery of the damaged tissues. The purpose of our study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of the intracolonic injection by using a colonoscope of allogeneic adipose MSCs in patients with moderate active ulcerative colitis.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of ustekinumab on extra-intestinal manifestations (EIMs) and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) (both Crohn's Disease [CD] and Ulcerative Colitis [UC]).
This study investigates the effect of individualized monotherapy with Mesalazine (Pentasa Sachet ®) on time to remission in patients with mild to moderate UC in an eHealth setting.
Maintaining and improving skin health are major goals in acute and long-term care. Patients at the extremes of age, the critically ill, medically compromised and those with immobility are at risk for developing several skin disorders, with pressure ulcers (PUs) as one of the most common and mostly preventable ones. Prevalence figures of PUs vary between 6.4% and 31.4%. PUs are described as localised injuries to the skin and/or underlying tissue, usually over a bony prominence, as a result of pressure or pressure combined with shear. Prevention of PUs is internationally seen to be a key quality indicator of care. To prevent PUs, reducing both the amount and the duration of pressure and shear at the pressure points of the body is strongly recommended. One of the interventions to achieving this, is the use of pressure-reducing devices (mattresses, cushions, etc.). Studies that compare the (cost-) effectiveness of different pressure-reducing devices are needed. The primary aim of this study is to compare the (cost-) effectiveness of pressure ulcer prevention in high risk patients using static air support devices (Repose®) versus alternating-pressure devices. The second aim is to get insight in patients' experiences and perceptions of comfort using static air support devices and alternating-pressure devices. The third aim is to get insight in caretakers' perceptions of barriers and facilitators of the use of static air support devices and alternating-pressure devices and to reveal how these perceptions influence the readiness to use the products in clinical practice. This randomized controlled trial will be performed in ca. 25 nursing homes in a random sample of 306 residents who are at high risk of developing pressure ulcers. Residents will be included in the study for a period of 14 days. Skin assessment and risk factor registration will be done on a daily basis by the nurses. Reliability checks and time measurements will be completed by the researcher.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy of golimumab in inducing clinical remission as assessed by the Mayo score, in pediatric participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). In addition, the safety profile of golimumab, in pediatric participants with moderately to severely active UC will be assessed.
This study tests the hypothesis that a supplement that combines a functional fiber, long chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), vitamin D3, vitamin E, and zinc will reduce clinical symptoms, decrease pro-inflammatory cytokines in the blood and ergo decrease inflammation, promote beneficial microbial activity in the colon, and help recovery of the intestinal mucosa of ulcerative colitis (UC) patients compared with a placebo.
