Filter by:The purpose of this open label, randomized, study is to obtain information on the safety and efficacy of 80 ppm Nitric Oxide given in addition to the standard of care of patients with COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2.
The Controlled evaLuation of Angiotensin Receptor Blockers for COVID-19 respIraTorY disease (CLARITY) study is a pragmatic prospective, open-label, randomised controlled trial. CLARITY aims to examine the effectiveness of angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) on improving the outcomes of people who tested positive for COVID-19 disease.
This study applied the Pulmonary Rehabilitation Adapted Index of Self-Efficacy (PRAISE) on respiratory patients who had their on-going ambulatory Pulmonary Rehabilitation program interrupted due to the COVID-19 outbreak. The research hypothesis is that ranking patients' self-efficacy is a useful screening tool to support patients' follow-up on a Pulmonary Rehabilitation telehealth solution to be explored during the COVID-19 outbreak.
The objective of the present study is to evaluate the effectiveness of daily consumption of a Combination of Plant Extracts (BSL_EP027) on the incidence of respiratory infection symptoms and their duration in older healthy volunteers living in a nursing home.
The study aims to evaluate the reduction in severity and progression of lung injury with inhaled ibuprofen in patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome due to SARS-CoV-2 virus.
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with (w) and without (s) nasal polyps (NP) in its different shapes is currently affecting up to 16% of the total population of the United States and around 11% of the population in Europe. It may also be associated with a hypersensitivity to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) drugs in a syndrome called NSAID-exacerbated respiratory disease (N-ERD) characterized by highly recurrent polyps and concomitant asthma. The pathophysiological mechanisms especially with regards to the potential role of the microbiome in driving N-ERD are so far not fully understood. Here, the investigators plan to analyse the nasal microbiome in these patients and to compare it to nasal samples from CRSwNP and CRSsNP patients as well as healthy controls (in total 80 subjects). This will provide insights into potential differences in the microbiome as compared to other CRS patients and the impact of the microbiome in driving this disease.
The investigators aim to investigate the effects of a telemonitoring and chatbot-based application of "Living well with COPD" (CAir) on health-related quality-of-life in patients with COPD.
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an emerging pandemic in 2020 caused by a novel coronavirus named SARS-CoV2. Diabetes confers a significant additional risk for COVID-19 patients. Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) is a transmembrane glycoprotein expressed ubiquitously in many tissues. In addition to its effect on glucose levels, DPP-4 has various effects on the immune system and several diseases, including lung diseases. This trial aims to assess the safety and efficacy of linagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, in the treatment of COVID-19. The trial will be randomized without blinding, with one are treated by insulin only for glucose balance and the other by insulin and linagliptin. The trial will assess the effects of linagliptin on different measures of COVID-19 recovery.
The aim of this study was to investigate the safety and efficacy of Sintilimab (IBI308) in patients with resectable NSCLC, and to provide new treatment options for neoadjuvant therapy in patients with stage II-IIIA NSCLC
During this pandemic period, the goal of the health care system is to optimize the use of intensive care services for patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, given the frequency of complications that can lead to high mortality. When patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 are admitted to hospital, whether or not they are symptomatic, there is currently no method to predict who will progress to complications requiring the use of intensive measures in 24-48 hours.
