Filter by:This is a prospective observational study which will recruit 90 participants over a three-year period to investigate whether adding magnetic resonance imaging and enterography to routine computed tomography study can better predict the extend of peritoneal carcinomatosis over computed tomography alone.
BHSAI is developing a computational system that provides early alerts of a rise and fall in core body temperature to help reduce the risk of thermal injury in the field and during training. The goal of the body temperature alerting system is to use it during rest, exercise in the heat and cold. Therefore, the primary purpose of this investigation is to validate a body temperature alerting system using physiological responses that occur during rest, exercise in the heat and cold. Multiple cold ambient temperatures will be validated.
This project will conduct pragmatic operational research in rural communities served by approximately 12 health centres and 120 village malaria workers in Battambang/Pailin, western Cambodia. This study is funded by Global Fund/Regional Artemisinin Initiative (RAI3E). The grant reference number is QSE-M-UNOPS-MORU-20864-007-42
The Academic centre for Malignant Hyperthermia of Masaryk University (ACMHMU) was established in 2021 in Brno, Czech Republic and consists of four academic departments of Medical Faculty of Masaryk University in two tertiary university hospitals, University Hospital Brno and St. Anne Faculty Hospital. These departments collaborated and operated since 2002 and since 2019 is Brno one of the of centre of EMHG (www.emhg.org). Aim of this study was to describe the Czech and Slovak (CZ-SK) cohort of MHS patients, the biggest Slavonic MHS cohort known by now, and to fill the knowledge gap about the Slavonic population in perspective of MH.
Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever is a mosquito-borne viral disease endemic in the Philippines which caused multiple epidemics. Most points to the activation of the complement system secondary to humoral respond leading to cytokine release causing systemic inflammation. Melatonin, is a hormone which has an a) anti-viral, b) immunomodulator, c) antioxidant, d) modulatory effect on hematopoiesis and e) anti-inflammatory action. This is a randomized control trial to determine the effectiveness of adjunctive melatonin therapy among patients diagnosed with Dengue fever with Warning Signs. This would include children aged 5 to 18 years old with no signs of hemmorhagic shock. They would be randomly assigned into 2 groups. Baseline Complete blood count with platelet (CBCPC) will be collected. Daily CBCPC will be collected and would be statistically analyze after the study.
The coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 causing COVID-19 was pandemic since 2020. Vaccination is one of the most important measure to control the outbreak. The countries of the world started the vaccination since December, 2020. Taiwan started since March, 21st, 2021. Currently, Taiwanese people receive COVID-19 vaccination by either AZ or Moderna; Pfizer/BNT vaccine may import in the near future. The side effects post vaccination including injection site pain, fatigue, headache, myalgia, chills, arthralgia, fever, and so on. Incidence of side effects more frequent in young people than elders; more frequent in the first dose than second dose in AZ vaccine; more frequent in the second dose in Moderna or Pfizer/BNT vaccine. Taiwan V-watch is a system monitored by CDC for people proactive notification of side effects post COVID-19 vaccination. But it doesn't include the objective cardiovascular parameters, for example, heart rate, arrhythmia, blood pressure, central body temperature (ear temperature) and blood oxygen saturation level. This study aims to monitor the physiologic and psychologic effects, and side effects before and after COVID-19 vaccination in patients at high cardiovascular risk, including hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and type 2 diabetes, and arrhythmia or coronary artery disease. The investigators arrange two weeks of continuous home BP/HR monitoring (7 days pre- and post-vaccination) for evaluation of physiologic effects post vaccination. Due to fever noted in some people post-vaccination, the investigators also measure ear temperature, pulse oximetry, and environmental temperature and humidity, for the reference of BP monitoring. In conclusion, this study may provide important information of cardiovascular response and psychosocial effects after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination for proactive prevention of cardiovascular complications.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the accuracy and safety of the "QOCA Disposable Body Temperature Patch" (Q-temp-w1).
VYF03 is a phase II, randomized, parallel-group prevention study with 2 arms, active-controlled (Stamaril), observer-blind, multi-center study to assess the non-inferiority of the immune response, in terms of seroconversion rates of the investigational vaccine candidate vYF to the licensed Stamaril, in adults aged 18 years up to 60 years in Europe (EU). The safety and immunogenicity profile of vYF in a cohort of Asian population of Chinese origin outside of China will also be described. The study will also assess the immunogenicity profiles and the safety profiles of vYF and Stamaril. Participants will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive a single subcutaneous injection of either the vYF vaccine (380 participants in EU and 80 participants of Chinese origin in Asia) or Stamaril (190 participants in EU and 40 participants of Chinese origin in Asia), on Day 01. The duration of each participant's participation will be approximately 5 years.
Febrile seizures are one of the most common clinical diseases in pediatric neurology. It occurs between 6 months and 6 years of age and occurs in ~2-5% of children. According to the age, frequency, duration, and type of seizures FS is divided into simple febrile seizures and complex febrile seizures Differentiation between febrile seizures and non-ictal events associated with fever such as shivering or dizziness is challenging. Therefore, precise diagnosis of FS after paroxysmal episodes associated with fever is often hindered by the lack of an objective biomarker With the widespread application of technologies, such as molecular biology, in medicine, some biomarkers for predicting or diagnosing FS have attracted attention. Imuekemhe et al in 1989 and 1996 found that lactic acid in the serum and cerebrospinal fluid of children with FS was significantly increased . Arginin-vasopressin hormone AVP released by the pituitary gland, has been shown to be involved in the thermoregulatory response to fever and convulsions Although AVP is unstable in the peripheral blood and, therefore, unsuited for diagnostic use the C-terminal portion of the AVP precursor copeptin has been recognized as a robust marker of AVP secretion . Wellman et al. found that the serum copeptin and Von Willebrand factor of children with FS were significantly higher than those of the control group .
Symptomatic dengue virus infection in pregnant women could affect the mother, fetus and the newborn at birth. The risks of postpartum hemorrhage, prematurity and low birth weight are increased in dengue fever. Cases of vertical transmission have been described. This study therefore proposes to quantify these risks in a pregnant woman presenting a clinical picture of dengue fever through a prospective, longitudinal and comparative study.
