Filter by:This is a single arm, open label, multicenter intervention trial to evaluate growth parameters, cow's milk related symptoms, gastrointestinal tolerance and safety in infants with cow's milk allergy receiving a hydrolyzed protein formula.
The primary purpose of the study is to assess the muscle contractility and sensitivity of lumbar erector spinae, biceps femoris, and gluteus maximus short-term response to Tabata kettlebell swing protocol.
Antibiotic prophylaxis in the operating room reduces the frequency of occurrence of surgical site infections (SSI) by preventing bacterial proliferation. The main antibiotic used in all surgery is CEFAZOLINE. This antibiotic of the Beta-lactam family, and more precisely of the 1st generation cephalosporins, is active on a specific bacterial target, which is often the cause of surgical site infections. Patients known to be allergic to penicillin have a 50% higher risk of surgical site infection. The choice of antibiotic prophylaxis often comes up against the risk of allergy in anesthesia. In France in 2004, according to the INSERM database, 100 IgE-mediated immediate hypersensitivity reactions (IHR) were observed out of 1 million anesthesias. The attributable allergens in descending order were curares (60.6%), latex (5.2%) then antibiotics (18.2%), followed by dyes (3.5%), hypnotics, opioids, gelatins and local anesthetics were rarely found. Regarding allergy to antibiotics, the leading antibiotic for allergy in France is AMOXICILLIN, which accounts for 29% of drug-induced anaphylaxis. In view of the risk of cross-allergy, a history of allergy to AMOXICILLIN in the operating room is a contraindication to all beta-lactam antibiotics and therefore leads to an alternative choice to CEFAZOLINE when the latter was indicated for first-line antibiotic prophylaxis. However, this choice of alternative antibiotic to CEFAZOLINE is not without consequences. First of all, the alternative antibiotics Vancomycin and Clindamycin have a narrower spectrum and therefore may not cover all germs found in SSI. They do not cover Gram-negative organisms for Vancomycin and Gram-negative aerobes for Clindamycin. Moreover, the use of these antibiotics exposes to undesirable effects. They can promote the occurrence of nosocomial infections such as Clostridium difficile colitis, infections with resistant germs such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) or Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE). Other adverse effects may occur such as Nephrotoxicity and Red Man Syndrome with Vancomycin. In addition, these antibiotics may be more difficult to handle, not allowing for the optimization of recommended delivery conditions. Secondly, the notion of the cost of these antibiotics must be taken into account. Two elements could encourage investigators to use CEFAZOLINE despite a history of allergy to AMOXICILLIN. 1. 1. Allergy declarations such as can be obtained in consultation correspond mainly to false positives. In fact, out of 10% of the world's population reporting an allergy to penicillins, only 1 to 2% of subjects have a proven allergy. In GHPSJ, among the patients consulting for a suspected allergy, the reintroduction test confirmed it in only 5.6% of them. 2. From a molecular point of view, there is a low rate of similarity between these two molecules. Contrary to popular belief, cephalosporin allergy is not mediated by the β-lactam core. The cross-allergy between cephalosporins and penicillin comes from the similarities of the R1 chain which is attached to the β-lactam nucleus at position 7 for cephalosporins, at position 6 for penicillins. This may therefore explain the lack of clinical cross-reactivity. The primary objective is to evaluate the proportion of patients of allergies between CEFAZOLINE and AMOXICILLINE. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the diagnostic value of skin tests to CEFAZOLINE and to describe the safety of protocol of reintroduction of CEFAZOLINE and AMOXICILLINE in the context of IgE-mediated cross-reactivity.
The goal of this interventional study is to investigate the effectiveness of an acute bout of exercises on pain sensitivity and clinical pain among adults with knee osteoarthritis. The following question will be answered in this research Q1: Is acute bout of exercise effective in reducing pain among adult with knee osteoarthritis? Participants who agree to participate and sign the informed consent will be randomised to one of three groups: Group 1: Isometric exercise with neutral language and no verbal suggestion consisting of 1 rep of wall squat, 3 min or to volitional fatigue at 100° knee angle;(n=30). Group 2: Isometric exercise with neutral language and no verbal suggestion consisting of 3 reps of wall squat, 3 min or to volitional fatigue at 100°degree knee angle, 30 sec rest between rep, ;(n=30). Group 3 (Control group): true control (do nothing);(n=30).
Within a survey of adolescent males in Medellin schools (mainly 13-year old boys) the researchers are randomizing whether survey respondents answer sensitive questions themselves or are asked the questions by an enumerator. Questions are of three main varieties: (1) antisocial behaviors, (2) symptoms of depression, and (3) symptoms of anxiety.
Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) patients had a proportion of secondary fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP). Denosumab and zoledronate acid is both effective to prevent bone loss for OVCF postmenopausal women. However, trial evidence comparing effect of denosumab vs zoledronate after PVP was unknown. The study aims to assess the efficiency of denosumab vs zoledronate for OVCF patients bone mineral density (BMD), bone turnover markers (BTMs), secondary fracture and adverse events after PVP.
To investigate whether cilostazol (phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitor) induces headache with migraine-like features in people with persistent post-traumatic headache (PTH) attributed to mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
At present there is no cure for food allergy. People with a food allergy need to avoid the food they are allergic to in order to stay safe, but we know that accidental exposure is common. Researchers have begun to look at the effectiveness of 'oral immunotherapy' as a treatment for food allergy but results have been mixed. This study is a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of Fish Immunotherapy (FOIT), with codfish as the primary focus, in inducing tolerance in children with fish allergy compared with Placebo. Children will take increasing doses of codfish protein until a total of 12 months treatment is completed. Children will be tested for fish allergy at the start of the study, at the end of fish treatment T1 (12 months) and T2 (8 weeks) after treatment.
Fluoridated desensitizers the frequently used for the treatment of dentin hypersensitivity (DH) with Iontophoresis. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the immediate and long-term effects of 10% Propolis with 2% sodium fluoride and 1.23% acidulated phosphate fluoride when applied along with Iontophoresis for the treatment of cervical dentin hypersensitivity (DH). Single-center, parallel, and double-blinded randomized clinical trials were conducted on systemically healthy patients, complaining about DH, with at least two sites. 10% propolis, 2% Sodium Fluoride and 1.23% Acidulated Phosphate Fluoride were used as desensitizers along with the Iontophoresis. After applying specific stimuli any decrease in DH was measured at baseline before and after application, on the 14th day after use, and at 28th-day post-intervention time intervals.
