- Parasitic infection is a serious public health problem throughout the world particularly in developing countries including Egypt. The individuals infected with helminths are responding to the parasite infections by a specific Th2 type innate and adaptive immune responses. The Coronavirus Disease 2019 pandemic has affected over 169 million people and caused the death of millions worldwide. COVID vaccines with up to 95% of efficacy and effectiveness have been developed and approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), USA. Moreover, it's reported that vaccination against COVID may lead to Cytokine Storm Syndrome in some vaccinated people with release of large amounts of cytokines as (IFNγ, IL-12, TNFα).
Multicenter, open-label, randomized, active control study to evaluate efficacy and safety of switching to VM-1500A-LAI + 2NRTIs from the 1st line standard of care therapy for 48 weeks. The 1st part of the study will select one of 2 dose cohorts: 600mg or 900mg.
Migraine is a fairly common disease that is a leading cause of disability worldwide. 15% of the general population suffer from migraine headaches. Although there are currently many options for the treatment of acute migraine, these treatment options, such as acetaminophen, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS), triptans, combinations analgesics and antiemetics, have insufficient efficacy and significant side effects. Therefore, there is a need for new treatment modalities in migraine. Sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) block is gaining interest as an effective treatment for migraine, other headaches and facial pain syndromes. In our study, we aimed to block the Sphenopalatine ganglion with a local anesthetic drug and compare it with the placebo control group.
Fear experienced at the time of birth and after birth is considered as fear of childbirth. If the fear occurred before pregnancy or if the pregnancy increases the severity of the fear, this can lead to "Tocophobia". When the literature is examined; In addition to birth preparation education, different methods such as cognitive behavioral theory, analytical theory, psychodrama, haptotherapy and art therapy groups have been found to be effective in reducing fear of birth. No study has been found in the literature on the effect of mandala on fear of birth and birth outcomes. By reducing the women's fear of childbirth of this study; It is predicted that it will reduce the need for medical intervention at birth, increase the normal birth rate, have a more positive birth experience and contribute to the well-being of postpartum women.
The SOX regimen has became the standard perioperative chemotherapy for locally advanced gastric cancer; The immune checkpoint inhibitors have become a standard treatment for advanced or metastatic gastric cancer；For HER2-positive locally advanced gastric cancer, some phase II studies have shown that chemotherapy combined with trastuzumab can further improve the pathological remission rate;This prospective phase II clinical trial was designed, using SOX combined with sintilimab and trastuzumab to treat HER2 positive locally advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma patients.
Descriptive analysis of N- homocysteinylated Huntingtin in 3 groups of human fibroblasts: 1. presymptomatic HD individuals with UHDRS motor ≤ 5 (Mutated Huntingtin), 2. symptomatic HD individuals with motor UHDRS > 5 (Mutated Huntingtin) 3. human control cell lines, unmutated Huntingtin
Patients undergo ERCP procedure (Endoscopic procedure with the help of x-rays) for a variety of reasons such as common bile duct (CBD)stones, bile duct obstruction secondary to bile duct narrowing (Strictures) and for bile leak. The incidence of infection post-ERCP is around one in 200. There are some group of patients where this risk is significantly increased. In this high risk group, the risk increases from 1 in 75 to in some diseases 1 in 15 (Described in PIS). There are some reports that some of the infection may be contributed by contamination of bacteria in the scope. This happens even after diligently sterilizing the scope. A multi-centre study reported that the risk of contamination is as high as 39% but what we do not know is how many resulted in bacterial infection. The investigators do not know what percentage of infection is secondary to the above. The new single use duodenoscope (aScope, Ambu Ltd) has been introduced in to the market to minimise the risk of post ERCP infection. It is CE marked but the evidence for performance of the aScope is limited. The investigators want to assess the performance of the scope simultaneously in multiple different hospitals. In addition, the investigators also want to assess the cost consequence to the NHS for using the above scope. Hence, the investigators want to assess the performance of the scope in the high risk groups for infection.
The aim of this study is to evaluate highly sensitive quantitative tests for early molecular detection of graft rejection and associated immune response from liquid biopsies in the blood from patients undergoing renal transplantation and secondly, to evaluate the evolution of de-novo HLA antibodies following renal transplantation. Furthermore, we are interested in the correlation of tissue damage caused by rejection, as measured by the presence of dd-cfDNA, and the presence of de-novo HLA antibodies.
COVID-19 has a high spread rate, millions of people have been infected around the world. Patients complained of different symptoms as fever, dry cough and fatigue which is mild in about 80% of cases, but the severity of the case may progress to develop a respiratory distress or respiratory failure, which may require the need for intensive care unit (ICU)
ECHAS One will test the use of a smartphone app to assist patients to decide if it is necessary to call for emergency care with symptoms that could represent a heart attack or stroke.
