Filter by:In this study, the investigators will examine the extent to which having suffered coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID19) impacts one's sensibility to hypoxia by means of the 'Richalet test'. The aim of the study is to formulate recommendations for advice in altitude mountain medicine for patients having suffered COVID19. To determine any eventual changes in response to hypoxia, performances by participants having suffered COVID-19 and participants having stayed free of COVID-19 will be both compared intra-individually with previous performances (pre-COVID-19 pandemic) and between both groups of subjects. The investigators hypothesize that patients having suffered COVID19 might perform differently on the cardiopulmonary exercise test compared to before the illness. Based on recent research on COVID19 pathophysiology and -patient follow-up, it might be expected that COVID19 alters the response to hypoxia, thus influencing one's acclimatization capabilities at high altitude, albeit reversibly and/or temporarily. Different alterations of response to hypoxia could be observed. The virus causing COVID19, the "severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2" (SARS-CoV-2), has the potential to significantly damage the nervous system and to affect cardiorespiratory functions. If SARS-CoV-2 does, similarly to MERS and SARS, induce cardiorespiratory and neurological dysfunction, then COVID19 patients may have impaired hypoxia response after infection and perform worse on the 'Richalet test' in comparison to before the illness. Conversely, reports of high prevalence of dyspnea in patients up to 3 months after SARS-CoV-2 infection, might indicate infection-induced degenerative changes in the carotid bodies, which might lead to sensibilization of the peripheral chemoreceptors to impaired oxygenation. Possibly similar to the impact of aging and smoking on the cardiorespiratory response to hypoxia, this phenomenon of sensibilization could entail an increased hypoxic response in patients having suffered COVID-19. Accordingly, patients might perform better on the 'Richalet test' post-COVID-19 than they did before.
To evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the third dose SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine, Inactivated (Vero Cell) in adults aged 18 years and above, who inoculated the third dose after 3, 4, 5, or 6 months since finished two doses schedule of Institute of Medical Biology Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences SARS-CoV-2 inactivated vaccine.
Background:The impact of the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants on the severity and clinical outcomes of COVID-19 is controversial. Whether virological characteristics including the mutational patterns of the different viral proteins (e.g., Spike, NSP proteins, ORF6) could be associated with a different immune response and subsequent severity of the disease is unknown. ln the next coming months, new variants carrying the same or new mutational patterns will continue to emerge. Monitoring their dynamics over time and their impact on disease severity is required for refining national and international disease control policies. Main objective: To unravel the relationships between specific viral mutations/mutational patterns and the clinical outcomes of COVID-19 in patients hospitalized in intensive care units (ICUs) for acute respiratory failure following severe SARS-CoV-2 infection. Design of the study Prospective multicentre observational cohort study Schedule for the study: Inclusion period: 24 months; Participation period: 28 days ; Total duration : 24 months + 28 days;
Great expectations to control the pandemic are placed in vaccines against COVID-19. Currently, the four COVID-19 vaccines approved in the European Union. The investigators designed a study assessing the anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody titer after vaccination cycle with the BNT162b2 vaccine in several time points relating these results to the COVID-19 history and severity of symptoms during the disease and after the first and second vaccine dose.
The overall aim of this study is to measure how transmission of COVID-19 occurs in communities - including the role of super spreaders and/or identifying conditions that may increase transmission risk, with a focus on congregant situations. In order to identify how presence of symptoms and behavior affects the transmissibility of the virus, the investigators will measure SARS-CoV-2 in exhaled breath of asymptomatic and symptomatic persons using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) test strips embedded in face masks (Face Mask Sampling- "FMS") - an innovative, non-invasive method for detection of SARS-CoV-2 in exhaled air.
This is Phase 1 study is to assess tolerability and immunogenicity of three dose levels of the investigational HDT-301 vaccine administered intramuscularly (IM), both in immunization-naïve participants and as a booster for those participants who previously received a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Safety and tolerability will be the primary endpoint assessed by incidence of adverse events at each dose through 12 months after completion of the vaccination regimen (either one dose, or two doses provided 56 days apart). Immunogenicity evaluations will be conducted for pre-specified timepoints as secondary and exploratory endpoints.
The Coronavirus Pediatric Serological Study's aim is to provide a better insight of children's immune response after SARS-CoV-2 infection. Serological tests were conducted on blood samples taken 3 to 5 months after the children's viral infection. The study was performed in collaboration with the Institute of Medical Immunology, were antibody levels were measured and immunoglobulin subclasses profiles were studied.
Outpatient management of patients with a milder form of COVID may be associated to an unfavorable initial or deferred course in relation to the pathology.. Outpatients represent the bulk of patients with COVID-19. To know their evolution, their secondary complications and identifying a profile of "at risk" patients is essential for the prevention and care of future non-hospitalized patients, in an epidemic context still active. This study could make it possible to redefine the follow-up of outpatients. The study consists of a simple questionnaire and possibly a teleconsultation.
To evaluate the HyperDetector as a method to rapidly screen SARS-CoV-2 To determine the sensitivity and specificity of the screening assay performed on oral swab and saliva specimens, compared to a validated RT-PCR COVID-19 method using nasal or nasopharyngeal swabs and to separately collected nasal swabs, oral swabs, oral rinse and saliva samples. To determine the best workflow for using such an assay to reflex suspicious/positive samples to a validated RT-PCR COVID-19 assay.
CLARITY 2.0 is an investigator-initiated trial that will evaluate the safety and efficacy of dual treatment with repagermanium, a CCR2 antagonist, and candesartan, an ARB, in patients hospitalised with COVID-19 disease.
