Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

Context: Hypercoagulable state associated with COVID-19 is one of the pathologic events that noticed in different waves of COVID-19 pandemics and leads to serious consequences in mortality and morbidity Aim: To evaluate platelet aggregation using light-transmission aggregometry and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) as an agonist in COVID-19 patients. Settings and design: This was prospective cross-sectional study. Patients and methods: Seventy-five individuals were enrolled in this study and divided into two groups, 50 patients with PCR-positive COVID-19 as study group and 25 apparently healthy individual as a control group. All individuals were subjected to full clinical evaluation, CT-chest, laboratory investigations: CBC, INR, LDH, CRP, serum ferritin and platelet aggregation evaluation using light-transmission aggregometry and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) as an agonist

Point estimates of sensitivity and specificity of molecular POC platforms for SARS-CoV-2, with 95% confidence intervals, using RT-PCR as reference standard.

The aim of this study is to independently evaluate the usability and performance of rapid assays detecting SARS-CoV-2 antigen(s) and intended for self-testing. For this, the results of the test performed and interpreted by an untrained lay user will be compared to the results obtained by a trained healthcare professional using the same test kit, and, separately, to the current gold standard for testing, RT-PCR detecting SARS-CoV-2 RNA

It is aimed to examine the retrospective features of covid-19 patients followed in our hospital with pneumothorax.

Oral symptoms of corona virus disease have been reported by many studies. The lack of direct contact between the dentist and the patient during the active disease presented an obstacle to build a strong body of evidence. the aim of the study is to report the oral symptoms of COVID-19 and correlate the occurrence of these symptoms with various disease-related factors.

The coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) has infected more than 630 million people and resulted in more than 6.5 million deaths worldwide. Among the possible sequelae of the virus, a disorder called long COVID has shown to affect about 10% of those infected, mostly adult women, without comorbidities. Long COVID corresponds to a multisystemic syndrome following the acute period of the disease, in which the person maintains persistent symptoms such as fatigue, dyspnea, cough, memory loss, muscle and joint pain, among others. Now that time has passed, it is necessary to verify why there are women who present symptoms of long covid and others do not.

This Expanded Access, Phase 3, open label study is intended to provide access to COVAXIN™ (BBV152) to individuals who are at risk or have predisposing conditions that can lead to complications with the current immunization options against SAR-CoV-2 Virus infection.

HIV CoCo is a European multi-centre, multi-country, retrospective, observational case-control study that will aim to describe clinical outcomes and identify risk factors for People Living With HIV (PLWHIV) who are co-infected with the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. The study will address two central questions: Is there a particular risk for COVID-19 in PLWHIV as compared to HIV seronegative control COVID-19 cases? Are there particular factors, within the group of PLWHIV, which put them at risk for a more severe COVID-19 disease course? The study will address these questions by recruiting patients co-infected with both HIV and SARS-CoV-2 and comparing them to two control groups - one group infected with SARS-CoV-2 only and another group infected with HIV only. Only deidentified, real-world retrospective data will be used for the study, collected as part of standard, routine clinical care. Additionally, this study will also look to: Describe the differences in the clinical manifestation of COVID-19 in PLWHIV compared to HIV seronegative controls Describe the response to treatment, including supportive care and novel therapies against COVID-19, including antiviral or immunomodulatory therapy Describe the co-morbidities in PLWHIV and controls with COVID-19 Compare the severity of COVID-19 between PLWHIV and the COVID-19 only controls at diagnosis and hospital admission. Data will be collected about patient outcomes from COVID-19 (including hospitalisation for COVID-19, length of stay in hospital, critical care admission, ventilation/oxygenation requirements, and need for kidney replacement therapy), as well as pre-existing health conditions, and relevant blood results at COVID-19 diagnosis.

The aim of this study is to investigate the feasibility of continuous fever tracking of participants having fever symptoms in a home setting, using a core body temperature (CBT) sensor. CBT as measured by the wearable sensors will be coampared with CBT as measured by ingestible electronc pills (reference). A secondary research question is, if the CBT behavior of the the participants in a home setting can be compared to previously described CBT profiles in the literature, and if special patterns can be identified.

Currently, the world is facing a SARS-CoV2 coronavirus epidemic, which is responsible for COVID-19. In France, this virus has already infected several million people and is responsible for the death of more than 127,000. Infection is associated with a higher number of cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction, stroke, cardiac arrhythmia, thrombosis ...) in the short and medium term after infection. The long-term complications of this infection are not yet known and are the subject of research in France and in the world. In order to investigate the possible long term sequelae of this virus infection, this research aims to evaluate the potential cholesterol abnormalities caused by COVID-19, which could play a significant role in the increase of cardiovascular risk in affected patients. A total of 180 analysable participants will be recruited in this study. They will be divided into four groups of participants that will be compared to one another: 30 participants who were infected with SARS-CoV2 with no or few signs and did not require hospitalization. 30 participants who were infected with SARS-CoV2 and whose severity of illness required hospitalization in a COVID unit 30 participants who were infected with SARS-CoV2 and required intensive care hospitalization due to severity of illness. 90 participants who were not infected with SARS-CoV2. For each participant, the study will last approximately 1 hour, the time to fill out the consent forms, to answer a few questions about their current medical history and finally to take a blood sample for lipid measurements.
