Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

This is a Phase I single-dose study to investigate the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of sotrovimab vs placebo by intravenous or intramuscular administration in healthy Japanese and Caucasian participants.

Nasal irrigations are thought to reduce the amount of virus from the nasal cavity. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effect of a hypertonic seawater solution containing algal and herbal natural ingredients (Sinomarin®) on the nasopharyngeal viral load in hospitalized patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia. The investigators will conducted a prospective, randomized, controlled trial. Patients will be allocated in two groups, the hypertonic seawater group receiving nasal irrigations with a hypertonic seawater solution (Sinomarin®) every 4 hours during a 16-hour interval per day, for two consecutive days, and the control group (no nasal irrigations). Forty-eight hours after the baseline nasopharyngeal swab (and 8 hours after the last wash in the hypertonic seawater group), a second nasopharyngeal swab will be collected for the semiquantitative estimation of the SARS-CoV-2 viral load as determined by cycle threshold (Ct) values.

The objective of the study is to improve glycemic control in inpatient/ICU settings using real- time continuous glucose monitors (CGM) data for insulin titration. It may help reduce Coronavirus disease 2019 patient contact with healthcare workers as well.

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19), is a communicable pandemic disease as stated by the world health organization (WHO), which has been affecting the world since December 2019. COVID-19 infected children develop the signs and symptoms of the disease, which can be exaggerated or life-threatening when associated with comorbidities like; obesity, sickle cell anemia, immune disorders, chromosomal abnormalities, chronic respiratory or cardiac problems, and congenital malformations.3 It is observed that children affected with COVID-19 who are physically inactive or in a sedentary lifestyle may induce and develop obesity. It is a major health concern in this pandemic situation, which can be addressed and treated with the use of appropriate physical training and proper dietary habits.

Stress and anxiety can have an adverse impact on health, and the experience of many around the 2020 outbreak of COVID-19 is affecting health and well-being. Individuals with chronic disease such as multiple sclerosis may be particularly vulnerable in some ways, but also particularly resilient in others. This study evaluates the effects of belonging to online support groups that meet weekly for 12 weeks to address the stress and anxiety felt by individuals with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). This study will also measure and explore the effects of online support groups.

Coronavirus is an acute viral disease with prevailing upper respiratory tract infections caused by the RNA-containing virus of the genus Betacoronavirus of the Coronaviridae family. Most patients with severe COVID-19 develop pneumonia in the first week of the disease. As the infection progresses, the infiltration increases, and the affected areas increases. Excessive and uncontrolled immune system response with rapidly developing fatal cytokine storm plays the main role in the pathogenesis of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to SARS-CoV-2 infection. According to available data, exosomes can regulate inflammation and regenerative processes due to the change in the concentration of anti-inflammatory cytokines and switch the immune cell to regenerative secretome. Inhalation of exosomes may reduce inflammation and damage to the lung tissue and stimulate the regenerative processes. This protocol has been developed based on the literature, information about the ongoing tests NCT04276987 (A Pilot Clinical Study on Inhalation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Exosomes Treating Severe Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia) and NCT04384445 (Organicell Flow for Patients With COVID-19), Patent No 271036826 of 2019. "A method for obtaining and concentrating microRNA-containing exosomal multi-potent mesenchymal-stromal cells for use in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products to stimulate regenerative processes and slow down aging.

The goal of this project is to help the state of Minnesota understand why individuals are not getting tested and potentially identify trusted individuals or organizations that could be used in follow-up work to send messages. Investigators focus on the first two issues of unit and item nonresponse, which is not random across the population and thus could lead to nonresponse bias. To do so, investigators are deploying flyers through 10 Twin City area food shelves and potentially through public housing units with information on how to answer an online questionnaire.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of respiratory muscle training (RMT) and nasal breathing on patients who have been infected with the SARS-CoV2 virus and continue to have lingering symptoms.

This study investigates whether and which type of text-based interventions affect the take-up of the COVID-19 vaccine.

In this research, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were tested in vitro and shown to have an inhibitory effect on SARS-CoV-2 infection in cultured cells. Subsequently, the investigators assessed the effects of mouthwash and nose rinse with ARGOVIT® silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), in the prevention of SARS-CoV-2 contagion in health workers consider as high-risk group of acquiring the infection in the General Tijuana Hospital, Mexico, a hospital for the exclusive recruitment of patients diagnosed with COVID-19.
