Filter by:The ULTRAZ study is designed to better understand the mode of action of S1P receptor modulators. The alteration of leukocyte trafficking due to S1P receptors such as ozanimod is mainly investigated in rodent studies. Several previous studies show a reduced total leukocyte count in peripheral blood and only two study reported the effect of leukocyte subgroups before and after treatment with ozanimod. The change in leukocyte subgroups in peripheral blood as well as colonic mucosa and lymph nodes have not been investigated to our knowledge. Therefore, the aim of this study is to explore the changes in these three compartments.
A randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, multicentre, phase III, non inferiority trial of an oral mesalazine formulation in patients with active mild to moderate ulcerative colitis for the induction of remission.
Venous leg ulcer is the final stage of chronic venous disease and only develops due to advanced chronic venous insufficiency. The problems caused by venous disease are initially minor and often neglected, but can impact the quality of life of patients. The prevalence of leg ulcers is estimated at 1% of the general population and 3% to 5% of subjects over 65 years old. Its prevalence increases with age in both men and women. Managing chronic ulcers requires a certain number of care procedures, including debridement. The act of treatment by mechanical debridement is little relieved by the analgesics given beforehand, and can be painful, with risks of bleeding. Musicotherapy, particularly the U-shaped method, has shown its effectiveness in the treatment of pain and anxiety in several areas (geriatrics, intensive care, rheumatology, oncology, etc.). The standardized musicotherapy method of the U-shaped sequence was developed and initially evaluated by clinical studies coordinated by the INSERM unit U1061 (Pr. Jacques Touchon; Dr. Stéphane Guétin). Following the publication of numerous controlled, randomized studies presenting results on the effectiveness in the treatment of pain and anxiety, a digital application was developed in order to standardize the method. The Music Care health application is now a Class 1 Medical Device, with CE marking obtained. This "U-shaped sequence" is standardized and has been clinically validated, which makes Music Care a unique tool available for pain relief. No studies have been found in the literature regarding the use of music therapy during debridement care.
Pressure sores are an important health problem that can be seen at any age and in any environment where care is provided, especially in intensive care units. It is a problem that can frequently develop, especially in people who are bedridden for long periods of time and who have acute or chronic diseases. While the incidence of pressure ulcers in hospitals is 10-23%, this rate has been reported to be 8.1%-41% in intensive care units. In Turkey, the incidence of pressure ulcers in patients receiving mechanical ventilation treatment for at least 24 hours was found to be 17% and 15.5% in intensive care units. It is an important problem that requires long-term care and treatment after the development of a pressure sore, prolongs the duration of hospitalization, has high treatment and care costs, and increases morbidity. In a systematic review, it was stated that pressure ulcer treatment, in addition to normal treatment, increased the per capita cost of care between € 2.65 and € 87.57 per day.The care provided due to developing pressure sores increases the burden on healthcare professionals and makes it difficult to achieve the desired quality of care.It also brings an extra financial burden to care institutions.Studies have found that pressure ulcer development increases the cost of nursing care. Pressure sores also cause pain, infection, etc. in patients. It leads to the development of serious problems, deterioration in comfort and a significant decrease in the quality of life. The use of complementary medicines, including medicinal plants, has long been recommended in this regard. The latest approaches in medicine recommend its use in the prevention and treatment of diseases due to its fewer side effects, and it is welcomed by patients. Assessment and care of the skin is important in preventing pressure sores. Pomegranate seed oil is very rich in conjugated fatty acids (linoleic and linolenic fatty acids). Although the effectiveness of pomegranate seed oil has been investigated in many subjects, there is no study examining its effectiveness in preventing and healing wound development. The aim of this study is to determine the application of topical pomegranate seed oil. To examine its effect on pressure sore development and progression. To determine the effect of topical pomegranate seed application on the prevention and progression of pressure sores. It will be conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study.
1. characterize the response to current medical therapy in adult with ulcerative colitis . 2. Detect prognostic factors of response of biological therapy in adult with ulcerative colitis
The purpose of this retrospective observational cohort study is to assess pregnancy and infant outcomes in three groups: the first is women with ulcerative colitis (UC) who were exposed to ozanimod during pregnancy; the second is women with UC exposed to conventional therapy during pregnancy; the third is women with UC exposed to advanced therapy during pregnancy. This study will use data from a large US healthcare claims database.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine at how well a new medical food works in managing inflammation associated with ulcerative colitis in children. The main question it aims to answer is: 1) How well does the new medical food lower an inflammatory biomarker known as fecal calprotectin (fCal) in ulcerative colitis as compared to the historical active therapy levels of fCal? Participants will take a specified dose of the medical food in water each day for 12 weeks. The level of fCal will be measured through a stool sample at baseline, one during the 12 weeks, at the end of 12 weeks, and once more at 16 weeks. The levels of fCal will be compared across the 16 weeks and compared with levels before the new medical food was taken.
The main aim of this study is to learn how the body of a child or teenager with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD) processes vedolizumab (pharmacokinetics) given just under the skin subcutaneously (SC). The participants will be treated with vedolizumab for up to 34 weeks. During the study, participants will visit their study clinic several times.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to to compare the effect of topical rebamipide to topical betamethasone on oral ulcer severity in patients with Behcet's disease.. The main question it aims to answer is : What is the effect of topical Rebamipide mouthwash compared to topical betamethasone mouthwash in management of oral ulcers in Behcet's disease? Participants will will be divided randomly into the two groups and the following outcomes will be measured: The oral ulcers severity Pain associated with oral ulcers Number of oral ulcers Healing time of oral ulcers
This study aims at evaluating the efficacy and safety of alpha-lipoic acid as adjuvant therapy to mesalamine in patients with mild to moderate ulcerative colitis due to its effect as anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory drug which can help to improve disease.
