Immunology Dysregulation in Lymphadenitis Tuberculosis : An Observational Study Using Patient' Block Paraffins 2019 Until 2021

Start date: May 1, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) infection is still a problem that cannot be overcome in Indonesia. In 2018 the number of tuberculosis (TB) sufferers in Indonesia reached more than 850/100,000 population, an increase around 20% from the previous year's incidence. One of the highest number of cases is in East Java Province, which is 38% of the total number of new TB cases in Indonesia. Extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) according to WHO classification criteria is an M. tuberculosis infection that occurs in tissues and organs outside the lung parenchyma. The incidence rate in Indonesia reaches 1-5% of the incidence of TB thus EPTB may often be forgotten. However, the diagnosis, therapy and monitoring post treatment in EPTB remains difficult to do. The focus of this research is tuberculous lymphadenitis (TB), due to 50% of EPTB cases in Indonesia was lymphadenitis TB. The risk factors for EPTB are immunocompromised conditions, such as HIV infection or comorbid conditions such as chronic kidney disease (CKD) and diabetes mellitus, but the mechanism of EPTB homing is still unclear. The mechanism of EPTB homing, especially TB lymphadenitis, really needs to be known for the development of diagnostics and therapy as well as preventing the occurrence of TB lymphadenitis. The importance of this research is to obtain compounds from the human immune response that can be developed as diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets for tuberculosis infection, especially TB lymphadenitis. Activated macrophages containing M. tuberculosis are carried by lymph flow to lymph nodes, where there is deposition of antigen-antibody complexes which then activate CC Chemokine Receptor-2 (CCR2) on lymphocytes, which are the primary receptors for Chemokine (CC motif) ligands ( CCL)-8 and CCL5, proteins expressed on macrophages containing M. tuberculosis. Activation of CCR2 increases the production of IL-10(10). IL-10 has been responsible for decreasing the secretion of TNF-, IFN-γ, and IL-1β (11). IFN-γ affects the process of M. tuberculosis elimination and the success of TB therapy, so that IL-10 is responsible for the failure of macrophages to eliminate M. tuberculosis. IL-10 also binds to Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3) and STAT3 increases the release of Suppressor of Cytokine Signaling 3 (SOCS3). SOCS3 interferes with IFN-γ signaling for CCR2 recognition of M. tuberculosis-containing macrophages. On the other hand, the mechanism of T lymphocytes and macrophages that activate pro-inflammatory mediators (TNF-, IFN-γ, and IL-1β) and the association of IL-10 activation on STAT3, SOCS3 and CCR2 expression in the incidence of EPTB, especially TB lymphadenitis without TB infection remains unknown.

NCT ID: NCT04586894 Completed - Cancer Clinical Trials

Adverse Myocardial and Vascular Side Effects of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors

AMICI
Start date: November 6, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Our knowledge on cardiovascular side effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is restricted to this date to observational retrospective data (mainly case series and pharamcovigilance analysis). We aim at assessing the incidence of cardiovascular adverse side effects of ICIs by means of a prospective interventional single centre study using multiple biomarkers.

NCT ID: NCT04010396 Completed - Immune Defect Clinical Trials

Immunological Responses in Bovine vs Mechanical Composite Grafts

IRBOcomp
Start date: September 1, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

In the first retrospective part of the study the investigators will conduct a data analysis of patients having received a bovine aortic graft. The investigators will analyze charts and CT / MRI at various time intervals and identify if there are signs of inflammation. In the second prospective part the investigators will select survivors from the first part with and without inflammation signs. If they consent to participate in the study the investigators will do a blood sampling in order to perform further immunological analysis. Additionally, the investigators will examine their quality of life by QoL SF-12 questionnaire.

NCT ID: NCT03793309 Completed - Prematurity Clinical Trials

Different Doses of Vitamin D and T Regulatory Cells in Preterm Infants

Start date: January 9, 2017
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This study evaluate the effect of two different doses of vitamin D on T-regulatory cells in preterm infants. Half of the subjects receives 400 IU vitamin D and the other half receives 800 IU vitamin D.

NCT ID: NCT02460328 Completed - Clinical trials for 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome

Resolution of Primary Immune Defect in 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome

Start date: February 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

- Evaluate about age of resolution in immune defect in 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome - Incidence of immunodeficiencies in 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome

NCT ID: NCT02140216 Completed - Surgery Clinical Trials

Immunomodulation Effect of Blood Transfusion

Start date: May 2014
Phase:
Study type: Observational

An increasing number of publications have demonstrated that homologous (allogeneic) blood transfusion impairs outcome in cancer and non-cancer patients. Leukocyte depletion of blood products cannot solve these problems, despite improved quality of red cells; a recent study demonstrated deteriorated outcome of cancer patients with elective colon surgery and transfusion of leukocyte depleted allogeneic blood.
