Northern Argentina is a risk area for yellow fever (YF). Recent studies have suggested that immunity wanes in children vaccinated between 9 and 23 months of age. In 2015, a collaborative study conducted by the Ministry of Health (MoH) of Argentina, the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) assessed the immunogenicity and safety of co-administration of YF and MMR vaccines in a pediatric population at 12-13 months of age. A total of 741 children presenting for routine immunization at 12-13 months of age enrolled and completed the study. It is now four to seven years since this pediatric group received their YF vaccinations. This cohort is unique because their initial YF vaccination and immune response to the vaccine dose are well characterized. Contact information collected during the earlier study will be used to locate the children. If consent is obtained, a 5ml specimen of blood will be collected and shipped to the CDC's Arboviral Diseases Reference Laboratory (ADRL) in Fort Collins, CO for plaque reduction neutralization testing using a 50% cut-off (PRNT50) to detect YF virus-specific neutralizing antibodies. Children with neutralizing antibody titers that are higher than their baseline titer collected approximately 28 days following YF vaccination will have PRNTs done for cross-reacting flaviviruses.
The aim of the study is to investigate comparison the effectiveness of online aerobic dance exercises versus physical activity counselling in patients with Juvenile Familial Mediterranean Fever.
The positive effects of fever are supported by a number of physiological, pathophysiological and clinical evidence. However, the negative attitude toward fever is widespread and have become persistent. According to sociological research, this is based on two main factors: comfort and fear. To change this negative attitude, awareness needs to be raised and the attitude toward fever among health care workers and the lay public needs to be reframed positively. Furthermore, the role of media users is essential, especially among the young generation. The current Hungarian recommendation/protocol is valid since 2011 (Professional protocol of the Ministry of National Resources: Caring for a child with fever, the recommendation of the College of Pediatric and Pediatric However, the practical implementation among health professionals and the laity public is low. Based on this protocol and current international guidelines (NICE) clinicians developed a protocol and register, where parents and caregivers can document the symptoms and runoff of fever as well as receive feedback on severity and appropriate management. The project aims to increase the evidence-based (EBM) guideline adherence, to reduce the unnecessary use of antipyretics and antibiotics, as well as the load on the current healthcare system. The documentation of the collected data allows the investigators to map and analyze (stats) socio-demographic behavior both on individual and societal level.
Investigating cytotoxicity of yellow fever specific CD8 T cells following YF-17D vaccination and the following licensing of these epitope-specific CD8 T cells
To inform the feasibility of conducting a study to test different temperature thresholds at which clinicians deliver interventions to reduce fever (i.e. antipyretic interventions) in critically ill children with fever due to infection.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of discontinuation of colchicine treatment in a specific group of asymptomatic FMF patients with a single mutation in MEFV gene, both from a clinical and laboratory aspects.
The objective of this study is to study immune memory generated against the yellow fever (YFV) vaccine in participants who have previously received the vaccine. Volunteers will not receive vaccine shots; only immune responses to previous yellow fever vaccination will be studied. The study involves one or multiple blood draws.
Intrapartum fever associated with epidural anesthesia is caused by non infectious causes therefore without histological findings
Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome (HFRS) is caused by a virus acquired by contact with chronically infected rodent hosts. HFRS is present throughout Korea. Treatment consists mainly of supportive care with careful attention to control of blood pressure and fluid balance and/or dialysis. Early initiation of IND Intravenous Ribavirin has been shown to be an effective treatment for HFRS and may prevent the need for dialysis. It is important to initiate therapy based on a diagnosis consistent with HFRS and a history that makes exposure likely. This study will monitor the clinical events that occur with HFRS as well as the safety and efficacy of Ribavirin.
