Cryptorchidism is the most frequent congenital defect of the male newborn. It requires surgery in childhood, increases the risk of fertility disorders and cancer. As a major public health objective, it's the subject of numerous recommendations. Its frequency is increasing in some countries faster than a single genetic cause could not explain it. It may occurs in a geographic cluster. The cause of cryptorchidism involves genetic, hormonal and environmental factors. Animal studies suggest that endocrine disruptors interfere with fetal testicular migration. The aim of the study is to find out if some environmental exposition may be associated with cryptorchidism.
Currently there are no US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drugs specifically for the treatment of patients with COVID-19. At present, clinical management includes infection prevention and control measures, as well as supportive care, including supplementary oxygen and mechanical ventilatory support when indicated. An array of drugs approved for other indications as well as several investigational drugs are being studied in several hundred clinical trials that are underway across the globe; however, currently there are no clinical trials available to patients in Arizona. This study will determine if a specific drug cocktail can improve clinical outcomes in patients with confirmed Mild SARS-CoV-2
The overall objective of the study is to determine the therapeutic effect and tolerance of Eculizumab in patients with moderate, severe pneumonia or critical pneumonia associated with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Eculizumab is a terminal complement inhibitor that has been investigated for more than 10 years in numerous complement-mediated diseases. The study has a cohort multiple Randomized Controlled Trials (cmRCT) design. Randomization will occur prior to offering Eculizumab administration to patients enrolled in the CORIMUNO-19 cohort. Eculizumab will be administered to consenting adult patients hospitalized with COVID-19 either diagnosed with moderate or severe pneumonia requiring no mechanical ventilation or critical pneumonia requiring mechanical ventilation. Patients who will chose not to receive Eculizumab will receive standard of care. Outcomes of Eculizumab-treated patients will be compared with outcomes of standard of care-treated patients as well as with outcomes of patients treated with other immune modulators.
The goal of the research is to assess candidate COVID-19 rapid diagnostic tests (e.g. immunodiagnostic antibody tests, like Cellex qSARS-CoV-2 IgG/IgM Rapid Test, or antigen tests, like Turklab Test-It COVID-19 Home Test, AllBio Science Inc. and Artron Laboratories Inc. rapid COVID-19 antigen tests in order to judge their clinical accuracy compared to Centers for Disease Control (CDC)-recommended molecular genetic testing and clinical diagnosis. Second, it is our goal to determine if self-testing assisted by COVIDscanDX mobile device camera acquisition software platform and telemedicine clinical/technical support (virtual point-of-care) improves the ease of use and immediate interpretation of the tests, thus making self-testing comparable in accuracy and safety to testing in a clinical setting. Third, we are testing antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 after diagnosis with COVID-19 or following vaccination to measure the onset and time course of detectable antibodies from finger-stick blood drops and rapid antibody lateral flow tests. The overall purpose of the study is to dramatically increase the capacity of COVID-19 testing by establishing the safety, ease-of-use and validity of self-testing assisted by mobile device imaging and telemedicine remote support and provide evidence of antibody time-course response to vaccination.
16 acute stroke patients will be split into 2 groups. One group will receive the real treatment (anodal tDCS) and one group sham. Subjects will receive, in addition to conventional rehabilitation, 2mA for 20 mins of their attributed tDCS, 5 times a week. Evaluations will take place before the first stimulation period (48h post stroke), after 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks. The evaluations are the Four Square Step Test, the Berg Balance Scale, the Postural Assessment Scale For Stroke, the Trunk Impairment Scale, the Time Up & Go and the 10 meter walking test.
The Austrian Coronavirus Adaptive Clinical Trial (ACOVACT) is a randomized, controlled, multicenter, open-label basket trial that aims to compare various antiviral treatments for COVID-19. Moreover three substudies have been integrated. Currently, patients will be randomized to receive (hydroxy-)chloroquine (Treatment stopped after reports of safety issues), lopinavir/ritonavir, remdesivir or standard of care. Moreover, these patients are eligible for substudy A (randomized to rivaroxaban 5mg 1-0-1 vs. standard of care), substudy B (renin-angiotensin (RAS) blockade vs. no RAS blockade for patients with blood pressure >120/80mmHg), and substudy C (asunercept vs standard of care, pentglobin vs. standard of care for patients with respiratory deterioration and high inflammatory biomarkers). Endpoints were chosen based on the master protocol published by the World Health Organisation and include a 7-point scale of clinical performance, mortality, oxygen requirement (both dose and type), duration of hospitalization, viral load and safety.
This study seeks to determine whether the virus which causes COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, is shed in the stools of patients who are infected.
The aim of this study is to determine the risk factors for development of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and to identify the prognostic factors of VAP among Coronavirus Disease 2019 (CoViD-19) patients. We hypothesized that CoViD-19 serves as a high risk factor for the development of VAP and it affects clinical outcome measures negatively.
This is a prospective study, involving contacting potential plasma donors and the use of their plasma to help fight off infections of those suffering from COVID19 in accordance to collection guidelines for plasma and FDA IND requirement. This study will include up to 240 participants potentially receiving convalescent plasma and up to 1000 potential donors. There are 3 basic arms to the study: mild, moderate and severe/critical severity. All 3 severity groups are eligible for enrollment, but mild severity will not be given plasma unless there is progression. Moderate severity will given up to 1 unit of plasma and severe/critical severity up to 2 units. There is no placebo group, however given the excepted issues of shortages of plasma, intention to treat will be used for analysis.
In this study, critically ill patients with highly suspected or confirmed COVID-19 will be included. Main goal is the identification of noncoding RNAs in COVID-19 associated organ dysfunction with an emphasis on acute kidney injury.
