View clinical trials related to Immunologic Deficiency Syndromes.
Filter by:Primary immunodeficiency is a clinically, immunologically, and genetically heterogeneous group of diseases that occur as a result of quantitative and/or qualitative deficiency of one or more cellular and molecular components belonging to the immune system. This classification, called the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health ( ICF), constitutes a common language and perspective for the definition of health and health-related conditions. This study aimed to evaluate the body structure function, activity and participation limitations of adult immunodeficiency patients within the scope of ICF and to compare body structure function, activity and participation limitations and compare with healthy people.
This sub-study will assess the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, tolerability, virologic efficacy and health outcomes of CAB (GSK1265744) and RPV long acting (LA) in HIV-infected adult participants currently enrolled in the Antiretroviral Therapy as Long Acting Suppression every 2 Months (ATLAS2M [A2M]) study (NCT03299049).
This study will assess the pharmacokinetics, safety, tolerability, maintenance of virological suppression and patient reported outcomes for participants receiving CAB and RPV LA injections following SC administration in the anterior abdominal wall SC tissue compared with IM administration in the gluteus medius muscle in adult participants living with HIV-1 infection in the FLAIR study (NCT02938520).
The COVID-19 pandemic started in December 2019 in Wuhan, the Chinese province of Hubei. Compared to the period of the first epidemic wave (March to May 2020), in the period of the second epidemic wave (October 2020 to July 2021), deceased people have a more significant clinical complexit, as demonstrated by the higher number of comorbidities.The need to allocate significant amounts of healthcare resources to the COVID-19 emergency, deferral of routine healthcare visits, and invitation to avoid medical controls, if not strictly necessary, may have led to interruptions of disease management undersupply of chronic treatments. Consequently, the health status of patients with chronic pathologic conditions have worsened during and beyond the crisis. Patients with cancer, autoimmune disease, and immune deficiencies represented populations with varying immunocompetence, which made translate into higher susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 and, for this reason, we defined them as frail populations.The main goal of the study was to propel the field of COVID-19 impact on particularly vulnerable categories of patients. The findings of this study could aid in determining the conditions under which healthcare organizations must operate in the event of a pandemic in order to protect patient's rights to care.
To date, many studies have focused on the characteristics of PID in children, allowing to highlight an entry into the disease in the context of more or less severe infections in all pediatric departments. However, only one study has so far studied the frequency of these PID in a pediatric resuscitation unit, which is why we propose this study to the Caen University Hospital. Investigtors propose a two-step study, both retrospective and prospective, in order to increase our cohort. The retrospective analysis of the data will be done over the period 2013-2016, the prospective analysis will be done from May 2017 to January 2018. The study will be monocentric, performed in the pediatric resuscitation department of the University Hospital of Caen to evaluate the prevalence of PIDs and describe their characteristics. The included patients will be aged 0 to 18 years, hospitalized in the pediatric intensive care unit for a serious infection and / or of an unfavorable evolution, or an opportunistic germ infection in the absence of a DIP or an immunodeficiency previously known. The inclusion will be proposed by the intensive care pediatricians. Authorization by the legal representative will be required in advance. The data will be collected during the systematic consultation in pediatric haemato-immuno-oncology within 3 months after their hospitalization in intensive care unit to detect a DIP by a thorough interrogation, a clinical examination and a first-line biological assessment. A second consultation will be scheduled in the 3 months following the 1st with announcement of the results of the first balance sheet and completion of a second complementary balance sheet if a suspicion of DIP persists at the end of the first balance sheet. The precise description of the incidence of these immunodeficiencies and their characteristics could lead to the development of recommendations on the routine screening of PID in pediatric resuscitation; an early diagnosis enabling preventive and curative management (vaccine, immunoglobulin, antibiotic prophylaxis, etc.) to be put in place in order to limit the risk of infectious recurrence and reduce the morbidity.
The goal of this community trial is to provide HIV education based on the newly developed HIV education kit (PREM-Kit) and evaluate the knowledge, attitude and practices related to HIV prevention among the late adolescents (aged 18 to 19 years old) in Malaysia. The main question it aims to answer is does the PREM-Kit improve the knowledge, attitude and practices related to HIV prevention among the adolescent? Participants will be asked to: - answer a questionnaire as a baseline screening to determine their knowledge, attitude and practices related to HIV prevention. - Using PREM-Kit, they will participate in a series of health education sessions. There will be three sessions in total which will be delivered two weekly apart. Each of the sessions will take approximately 20 minutes duration. - Following the last session (third session), participants will have to answer the same questionnaire ; once immediately after the last session, once at 3-months post-intervention, and lastly, at 4-months post-intervention. Researchers will compare participants who received the existing Basic Science and Biology module to see if there is any improvement in the knowledge, attitude and practices related to HIV prevention.
This study is aimed to evaluate the effects of yoga intervention versus usual care (control group) for reducing stress among people living with HIV in Indonesia.
The treatment outcome of Mycobacterium abscessus infection in acquired interferon-gamma autoantibody syndrome has not been well studied. Investigators will perform a retrospective and prospective cohort study to determine the treatment outcome of Mycobacterium abscessus infection in patients with acquired interferon-gamma autoantibody syndrome compared with the infection in patients with chronic lung disease which is known to be the most common group of infection and have high rates of treatment failure. Investigators hypothesized that Mycobacterium abscessus infection in acquired interferon-gamma autoantibody syndrome has better outcome than infection in chronic lung disease.
High-Dose Vitamin D3 in the Treatment of Human Immune Deficiency Virus Patients, A Double-Blind Randomized Control Trial Human immunodeficiency virus is a key challenge for global health. Vitamin D deficiency is common in people living with HIV infection. Antiretroviral therapy may create unique risk factors for vitamin D insufficiency, including alterations of vitamin D metabolism by ART.
Background/Objectives: The research discusses the importance of mountain foods/products and services in the context of healthier nutrition and behavior with the application to agribusiness. The purpose of the research is to highlight the necessity of human behavior in consuming mountain products as natural probiotics. Subjects/methods: As evidence, the research analyses mountain food and the associated entrepreneurship for Austria and other Central and Eastern European countries (foods/products and services), especially from the mountain area. The authors realized experimental research regarding representative mountain food from Central and Eastern European areas and used the Eurostat database. Data has been taken from Eurostat and processed in Excel and SPSS, using similar models of analysis from published research. Experimental analysis has been realized by the authors and collected from different recognized sources.
