Filter by:The overarching goal of the Master Protocol is to find effective strategies for inpatient management of patients with COVID-19. Therapeutic goals for patients hospitalized for COVID-19 include hastening recovery and preventing progression to critical illness, multiorgan failure, or death. Our objective is to determine whether modulating the host tissue response improves clinical outcomes among patients with COVID-19.
In order to assess the mother-to-infant and potential vertical transmission of SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnant women, maternal and neonatal biological samples will be prospectively collected from women with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 at participating hospitals across Ontario. Samples will be tested for the SARS-CoV-2 serology and viral load. Outcomes for the study objective will be ascertained through the collection and testing of biological samples from the mother and/or infant. Specifically the investigators will: 1. Assess maternal nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal swab, vaginal mucosa, ano-rectal swab, amniotic fluid, placenta (including subamniotic swab), breastmilk, cord blood and neonatal nasopharyngeal swab for RNA particles of coronavirus, by ddPCR. 2. Assess maternal serum for anti-coronavirus antibodies, by immunoassay. 3. Examine the impact of coronavirus on the neonate with respect to serology and viral load, in addition to placenta pathology findings and ddPCR. 4. Assess vertical transmission and the effect of coronavirus through placental pathology examination using placental pathology synoptic report.
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can cause variable symptoms ranging from mild common cold-like symptoms to severe life threatening pneumonia. Recent studies show severe outcomes of COVID-19 patients specially in males who suffer from androgenetic alopecia, would be significant and is of particular interest of this study and could help further support the hypothesis that anti-androgen therapy might represents an additional potential intervention against severe COVID-19.
In this research, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were tested in vitro and shown to have an inhibitory effect on SARS-CoV-2 infection in cultured cells. Subsequently, the investigators assessed the effects of mouthwash and nose rinse with ARGOVIT® silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), in the prevention of SARS-CoV-2 contagion in health workers consider as high-risk group of acquiring the infection in the General Tijuana Hospital, Mexico, a hospital for the exclusive recruitment of patients diagnosed with COVID-19.
The study is a Randomized, Open-Label, Multi-Centre, Phase 2a Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effect of STC3141 Continuous Infusion in Subjects with Severe Corona Virus Disease 2019(COVID-19)Pneumonia.
This is a retrospective single centered study that was done in the ICU on patients with Covid-19 between 16th of March -16th of May in 2020 Retrospective records will be examined by examining the electronic data files of the patients. There were two groups as smoker and non-smoker.
In November 2019, there were a lot of cases of an acute respiratory illness (then named at February 11th as COVID_19) which first case was reported in Wuhan, China,The SARS COV-2 had been spread in a fast way to involve whole world, As it's obvious that Colchicine is a drug that is most commonly and widely used to treat and prevent acute attacks of Gout, other crystal induced arthropathy,colchicine has important role in inhibiting activation of NLRP3 inflammasome these lead to decrease cytokine production , aim of study To evaluate whether colchicine is effective in the treatment of COVID-19 cases. And to measure the effectiveness of colchicine in alleviating and controlling pulmonary and extra pulmonary complications of COVID-19
This is a dose optimisation study in healthy adults aged 18-30 who will be experimentally inoculated with SARS-CoV-2. The aim is to cause PCR-confirmed upper respiratory infection in the majority of challenged individuals with minimal or no illness, providing data on the course of COVID-19 and the immune response to SARS-CoV-2 infection. This will establish an optimised dose and study design that will then be used to evaluate the efficacy of treatment and vaccine candidates plus level and duration of immune protection in follow-on trials.
The effects of Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19), a multisystem disease, on the body system and functions are being investigated all over the world. Examining the effect of exercise capacity, which is an important marker of cardiovascular risk in young individuals with COVID-19, will allow the planning of exercise and physical activity programs according to the needs of that specific population. The objectives of this project are:(1) To compare the submaximal and maximal exercise capacity of young adults aged between 18-30 who have had COVID-19 with healthy individuals in the same age group (2) To determine the roles of muscle strength, respiratory functions, fatigue, dyspnea, and physical activity level on exercise capacity evaluated by two different tests in young adults survived from COVID-19.
The treatment of the new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) and COVID-19-associated diarrhoea and liver injury remains challenging. Optimizing treatment approaches for COVID-19 remains an issue. It is assumed, that changes in composition of intestinal microbiota is closely related to a change in the regulation of the immune response in the lungs in patients with COVID-19. These gut microbiota changes in combination with antibiotic prescription during the treatment increase the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhea and C. difficile infection as well as worse clinical outcomes in these patients. Probiotics are useful for restoring the human gut microbiome and increasing anti-inflammatory response also. Despite the variety of uses of probiotics, there is still insufficient data on the clinical efficacy of including probiotics in the treatment of patients with COVID-19 infection.
