Filter by:The aim of the study is to evaluate simultaneously the immunological and clinical efficacy and tolerability of an influenza vaccine, inactivated, quadrivalent, with cleaved virus, in patients at risk for severe and complicated influenza routinely vaccinated against influenza in family medicine clinics or specialty clinics (pediatric, internal medicine, cardiology, gynecological diabetes, pregnant women, transplant).
The study will collect the information on clinical effects and safety of the basic therapy of acute respiratory viral infection (ARVI) + Cycloferone® and basic therapy of ARVI1 + Arbidol® in real-life clinical settings.
In July 2020, a bundle (Appendix C) was implemented at Methodist Dallas Medical Center where all patients with SAB were reviewed by the antimicrobial stewardship pharmacist (Monday - Friday from 0700 to 1500), a note outlining optimal interventions was written in the electronic medical record (EMR), and the recommendations were communicated to the primary team via secure messaging or telephone
While surgery with anatomic reconstruction of prosthetic aortic infections and native infectious aortitis has become established over time, the ideal substitute is not clearly defined. The cryopreserved arterial allograft (AAC) recognized as resistant to infections not only presents availability problems making its use complicated, particularly in emergencies, with a certain number of long-term aneurysmal developments. The tubulized pericardium patch (PP), available in all cases, seems to give promising results in recent literature. The investigators propose a comparative study of these two substitutes in this indication. We carried out a two-center observational study including retrospectively from January 2010 to July 2023 all patients operated on for aortic prosthesis infection and native infectious aortitis with AAC reconstruction and prospectively PP patch reconstructions from July 2018 to July 2023. The diagnosis of infection was established according to the MAGIC criteria. The patients' preoperative comorbidities were collected to compare the groups. Postoperative morbidity and mortality was then compared. The medium-term evaluation consisted of comparing according to the Kaplan Meier method: postoperative mortality, permeability, reinfection rate, reoperation rate.
Currently there is little consensus regarding postoperative antibiotic prophylactic treatment and its effect on the postoperative infection rate after Cochlear implantation. The literature on this subject is contradictory, and very limited. The aim is to assess the impact of postoperative antibiotic treatment on post-operative infection rate, and thereby discuss if postoperative antibiotic treatment has any benefits in the preventing treatment against infectious complication.
Using our own patient data, our study aimed to predict mortality that can develop in Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacilli bloodstream infections with a machine learning-based model. In the intensive care unit, patients with bloodstream infections, both with and without mortality, will be examined retrospectively in two subgroups for comparison.
This is a virtual, double-blind, two-arm, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial that will last 12 weeks. Participants will take the CanXida Remove Candida Cleansing Formula RMV or a placebo product daily and complete questionnaires at Baseline, Week 6, and Week 12. Candida microbiome testing will be conducted via stool sample at Baseline and Week 12. The participants will all be blinded to the name of the test brand.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the skin quality improvement and colonization efficacy following the application of probiotic Micrococcus luteus Q24 (BLIS Q24) to the face from a serum format in healthy adults.
This cohort study plans to investigate associations between the presence of multiple lower genital tract microorganisms in pregnancy and gestational age at birth. The study enrols pregnant women at one public health care facility in East London, South Africa. At enrolment and 30-34 weeks of pregnancy, participants provide swabs for testing for sexually transmitted infections, vaginal yeasts and genital mycoplasmas; for microscopy and Nugent scoring; and for 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid gene sequencing and quantification. The primary outcome is gestational age at birth. Statistical analyses include: regression modelling to explore associations between specific microorganisms (including microbiota) and gestational age at birth; construction of an index of vaginal inflammation, using data about microorganism load and inflammatory potential; classification and regression tree analysis to examine which combinations of microorganisms contribute to earlier gestational age at birth.
This study aims to emulate a hypothetical target pragmatic multi-center, non-blinded trial of adult inpatients in the PINC AITM dataset with B-lactam treated culture confirmed monomicrobial invasive Group A streptococcus (GAS) between the years 2015-2021
