Active clinical trials for "Respiratory Tract (Lung and Bronchial) Diseases"

This study aims to assess the prevalence of sleep disorder breathing in pregnant women with a singleton gestation who develop hypertensive disorder of pregnancy (HDP) compared to women without HDP, when matched for gestational age and body mass index.

Due to the outbreak of 2019 Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia in Wuhan, Hubei province, medical staff and residents are facing great psychological pressure, the investigator plan to use electronic questionnaire to carry out investigation research.

This study investigates carriage rate and risk factors for acquiring multiresistant bacteria (ESBL producing E.coli and K.pneumoniae, carbapenem-resistant and multidrug resistant P.aeruginosa, MRSA and VRE) in hospitalised patients and healthy volunteers.

To quantify the diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic value of spectrometric analysis of exhaled breath from hematological patients with respiratory infection.

treatment of ventilator associated pneumonia in pediatric intensive care unit according to the American guidelines

This study is conducted to collect the symptoms of lung cancer patients and to observe the relationship with proteomics.

Fiberoptic bronchoscopy plays a very important role in the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory diseases in children.In China,this procedure is mainly performed under two different anesthesia methods：sedation and general anesthesia(GA) . Which is better ? there are still a lot of controversies . Several early retrospective studies suggest that, in addition to the possible increase in costs, general anesthesia in intraoperative complications, postoperative recovery and other aspects did not bring significant improvement. But clinically we observed that children under sedation often can not cooperate, they often shows anxiety,restless,crying,and so on, under these situation, some restraint measures may be used, which may have an impact on the child's neuropsychological development. Therefore ,we design this study ,aiming to compare the influence between sedation and general anesthesia (GA) on children 's neuropsychological development.

The investigators have established the "Evaluating the Alimentary and Respiratory Tracts in Health and disease" (EARTH) research program. It provides a structured approach to analysing gastrointestinal and respiratory microbiomes, along with diet and symptomatology, in children with a gastrointestinal and/or respiratory condition with recognised long-term morbidity (e.g. cystic fibrosis, obstructive sleep apnoea, or Hirschsprung's disease). The EARTH program consists of a series of prospective, longitudinal, controlled, observational studies, with each individual study comparing children with a chronic gastrointestinal and/or respiratory condition to healthy controls (HC). It will be conducted in an Australian tertiary paediatric hospital (although the methodology is applicable to other settings). Children with a chronic gastrointestinal and/or respiratory condition will be compared to age and gender matched HC across a 12-month period. The following will be collected at baseline, 6 and 12 months: (i) a stool sample, (ii) an oropharyngeal swab or sputum sample, (iii) a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire, (iv) details of disease symptomatology, (v) health-related quality of life, and (vi) psychosocial factors. Data on the intestinal and respiratory microbiomes and diet will be compared between children with a condition and HC. Correlations between dietary intake (energy, macro- and micro-nutrients), intestinal and respiratory microbiomes within each group will be explored. Data on disease symptomatology, quality of life and psychosocial factors will also be compared between children with a condition and HC. The investigators hypothesise that: (i) Children with chronic gastrointestinal and/or respiratory conditions will have altered intestinal and respiratory microbiomes compared to healthy children, and (ii) Diet plays a key role in influencing the intestinal and respiratory microbiomes and this may impact on clinical outcomes, biomarkers of disease, and health-related quality of life.

The occurence of influenza can be a factor of imbalance of asthma. Asthma patients are recommended for annual influenza vaccination . However there is insufficient vaccination coverage of asthmatic patients despite this recommendation. The aim of this study is to evaluate the rate of influenza vaccination coverage of children with asthma aged from 6 month to 17 years of age followed in pediatric pneumology consultation at the university hospital of Nancy.

This is a cross-sectional observational study on adult asthmatics evaluating the relationship between asthma control and psychosocial factors to include intimate partner violence, stress, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder.
