Filter by:A desirable quality of mouthrinses is substantivity an intrinsic feature of some molecules. Substantivity requires the adsorption of the agent on the oral surfaces and subsequently antimicrobial activity bacteriostatic along following hours. This work aims to quantitatively determine the substantivity of (i) a single o-Cymen-5-ol plus CPC oral rinse, (ii) a, CPC oral rinse and (iii) a o-Cymen-5-ol mouthwash on the salivary microbiota up to 4 h after their application.
Antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD) is the most common gastrointestinal complication of antibiotic use, with potentially serious clinical impact. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Saccharomyces boulardii in the prevention of AAD in adult patients with lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) treated in a hospital. A multicenter, randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is conducted whereby adults who are hospitalized due to LRTI and treated with intravenous antibiotics and randomized to capsules containing S. boulardii or indistinguishable placebo. The outcome measures were: relevant clinical features, gastrointestinal symptoms, and adverse events.
Women undergoing surgical sterilization will be interested in risk reducing salpingectomy, and surgeons performing the procedure will be able to successfully complete the salpingectomy.
The primary objectives of this study are: - To determine whether rivaroxaban 2.5 mg twice daily (bid) + aspirin 100 mg once daily (od) compared with aspirin 100 mg od reduces the risk of a composite of myocardial infarction, stroke, or cardiovascular death in subjects with coronary artery disease (CAD) or peripheral artery disease (PAD); - To determine whether rivaroxaban 5 mg bid compared with aspirin 100 mg od reduces the risk of a composite of myocardial infarction, stroke or cardiovascular death in subjects with CAD or PAD.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether patient outreach is effective at increasing compliance with preventive screenings ordered by their physician. We hypothesize that educational outreach may increase completion rates.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of an intervention (KAN-DO: Kids & Adults Now - Defeat Obesity) encouraging postpartum mothers and their preschool-aged children to work together to promote healthy eating, increase physical activity, and reduce sedentary behaviors. Via instruction in parenting skills and behavior change strategies, the goal is relative weight maintenance in children of healthy weight, and relative weight reduction in overweight children. The intervention will focus on a child (2-5 years of age) and his or her overweight or obese mother, who has just delivered a second or subsequent baby.
