Filter by:Onychomycosis is a common nail plate infection caused by dermatophytes, non-dermatophytic molds, and yeasts. The disease is difficult to achieve self-healing and predisposed to secondary bacterial infections. There are currently multiple medications that can be used for the treatment of onychomycosis. The limitations are high recurrence rate and high cost, time-consuming and drug interactions. Several FDA approved laser devices have been available for the treatment of onychomycosis since 2010. As an emerging physical therapy modality, laser and light have advantages including extensive applicable range, simple operation, less trauma, and it will not lead to generation of new resistant strains. Therefore, it has been popularized and applied in clinics, especially among elderly, immunocompromised patients, or those with liver and kidney dysfunction. Laser systems in the near-infrared spectrum (780 nm∼ 3,000 nm wavelength), which are commonly used in onychomycosis, exert their effect by direct heating of target tissues, but it can cause unbearable physical pain to the patient. Compared with laser, controllable infrared bioeffect system has the advantages of high safety, less trauma, and less pain. Reported in the literature, it has been observed that regression of distant, untreated skin lesions in patients treated locally with controllable infrared bioeffect system, especially in inflammatory skin diseases such as viral warts and sporotrichosis. The aim of the research is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of controllable infrared bioeffect system in treatment of onychomycosis.
Familial Mediterranean Fever is a chronic auto-inflammatory disease. In the context of chronic inflammation, it seems that, among others, it also affects bone density in children. Bone loss may be due to subclinical inflammation that persists even during periods of remission. In addition, inflammatory cytokines also play an important role (mainly during episodes) resulting in an increase in bone degradation and ultimately a reduction in bone mass. Cytokines mainly associated with bone degradation and osteoclast activity are: IL-1R, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, TNFa. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of FMF on bone density and to compare the results with a healthy population. In addition, the difference between the children with FMF will be studied according to the mutation they carry.
This is a multi-center, retrospective clinical study to analyze the clinical features, laboratory indicators, imaging changes, treatment options and long-term prognosis in patients with sever fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome. All hospitalized patients with sever fever with thrombocytopenia diagnosed between 2016 and 2022 were included from the electronic medical record system of 8 centers, and demographics, hospitalization information, clinical information, laboratory or imaging examinations, treatment options, and outcomes were collected.
The goal of this randomized study to test the efficacy of different doses of IVIG (intravenous immunoglobulin) in the treatment of severe HFRS（hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome）, and provide new clinical ideas for the treatment and prognosis of HFRS patients in the future. This study will include all hospitalized patients with confirmed severe or critically ill HFRS from October 2021 to October 2023 from 9 centers. Participants will receive IVIG 10g/d or IVIG 20g/d. All the participants will be given conventional liquid therapy and symptomatic and supportive treatment. Participants will be collected demographic, epidemiological history, hospitalization information, clinical data, laboratory data, imaging results, treatment regimens, and outcomes data.
This monocentric study registry records all cancer patients at the Charité which are treated with hyperthermia to examine the therapeutic use of hyperthermia in cancer patients in the general application and to obtain an accurate risk-benefit balance After confinement in this database are the patients prospectively in order to complications, disease status and survival status tracked. Furthermore there is the possibility in the course of this study to an optional take part in translational accompanying research with the aim of prognostic factors for response to hyperthermia treatment.
To describe the epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, therapy, and treatment outcomes of patients in whom the combination biomarker BV (combination of TRAIL, IP-10, and CRP) is used, and to compare them with control patients without BV measurement. Secondary objectives: - Qualitative evaluation of indication as well as adherence to the test result. - Comparison of antimicrobial therapy, performed diagnostics, hospitalization, and outcomes between patients with high BV score (bacterial) and patients with low BV score (viral).
Acute renal injury (AKI) is a common complication after cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC), and is associated with worse outcomes. Available evidences show that maintaining intraoperative urine output ≥ 200 ml/h by fluid and furosemide administration may reduce the incidence of AKI in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass. The investigators hypothesize that, for patients undergoing CRS-HIPEC, intraoperative urine-volume guided hydration may also reduce the incidence of postoperative AKI.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare a short course of antibiotics in patients in whom no bacterial infection is found with the current "golden standard": long-term antibiotic treatment in adult hematology patients who develop neutropenic fever. The main question it aims to answer is: whether the short-term treatment is equally safe for patients, hence the name 'SAFE study'. Participants will be randomly assigned (randomized) to one of two treatment options once they develop neutropenic fever: short-term or long-term antibiotic treatment. An additional blood sample, urine sample and stool sample will be collected. Researchers will compare the short-term and the long-term antibiotic treatment groups to see if the short treatment is equally safe as the long-term treatment group.
No antiviral treatment exists for yellow fever, only supportive care, and therefore we rely on prevention through vaccination. Although this vaccine is very effective, stockpiles are insufficient in outbreak situations and some people have a contraindication to be vaccinated. For those who are unprotected and at risk of yellow fever infection, treatment could be life saving.
The aim of this study is to investigate whether the application of concomitant modulated electro-hyperthermia in a neoadjuvant chemotherapeutic setting is beneficial for patients with HER2-negative, stage II-III breast cancer.
