Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

Prospective observational study to evaluate a possible change in APS antibody profiles after COVID-19 infection or vaccination

Introduction: Secondary pneumonia is frequently seen in COVID-19 cases followed up intubated, and high mortality rates can be observed. Isolation of the agent with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) culture or endotracheal aspirate (ETA) culture may increase the success of treatment. This study aimed to retrospectively analyze the results of BAL and ETA cultures in intubated COVID-19 cases. Methods: We routinely apply BAL culture with bronchoscopy or ETA culture within the first 48 hours after intubating. We retrospectively screened cases who underwent BAL and ETA. They were divided into two groups: Group B and E. Evaluated parameters were compared in both groups. Results: Demographic data and blood test results were similar in both groups. Intensive care unit (ICU) and intubation durations, and culture positivity were statistically significantly higher in Group B. Although not statistically significant, the mortality rate was higher in Group E. The most growth microorganisms were Candida species. Conclusion: Mortality rates were consistent with the literature. Since the microorganism isolation rate is higher with BAL and antimicrobial treatment is applied more effectively; early deaths were prevented and stay periods were prolonged. In contrast, these durations were shorter in the ETA group due to higher mortality. In intubated COVID-19 cases, a more effective treatment process can be carried out by clearing the airway with fiberoptic bronchoscopy and by specifically planning the treatment according to the BAL culture. This may have a positive effect on prognosis and mortality.

This study aimed to assess the cytokine profile in COVID 19 patients and its relation with disease progression & severity using COVID reporting and data system (CORADS) score.

Fibromyalgia patients and controls living in the same household will be evaluated for levels of resilience, covid-19 related anxiety, coronavirus disease 2019 related obsession, quality of life and pain and comparisons and correlation analyses will be carried out.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the prophylactic use of Ingaron (INN: recombinant interferon gamma human, lyophilisate for solution for intranasal administration 100,000 IU) in the regimen of 3 drops in each nasal passage intranasally every other day for 10 days with a break of 7 days (2 10-day cycles) in volunteers.

Despite worldwide efforts to contain, manage and treat Covid-19, the pandemic is continuing to spread. This calls for an urgent clinically-proven prophylaxis and therapeutic strategy. Recent developments on the use of traditional medicines in Covid-19 management has drawn enough attention to start several research studies. Based on the Indian Traditional Medicine, Ayurveda's community initiatives, preliminary studies, and our experiential knowledge on Covid-19 settings, we propose present study to prevent the development of COVID-19 symptoms in people who live or have come contact with an individual diagnosed with COVID-19.

The objective of the study is to assess the impact of remote cardiac and vital sign monitoring in patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in the outpatient setting.

The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of an artificial intelligence smartphone-enabled point of care ECG to detect COVID-19.

The main objective of this study is to offer and evaluate an interim triage approach for patients waiting for surveillance colonoscopies. This will reduce the waiting period and the psychological stressors for our patients and from a scientific point of view allow us to compare the yield of findings for each approach.

SARS-CoV-2, the agent responsible for pandemic COVID-19 infection, is transmitted mainly by respiratory droplets. Regarding maternal-fetal transmission, even if the mode of transmission from mother to fetus is not clear, some cases of perinatal transmission have been described, but without certainty on the routes of placental contamination, trans-cervical or by environmental exposure. . The case described by J. Vivanti of a newborn with neonatal neurological involvement and whose mother had been infected during the last trimester of pregnancy reports possible transplacental transmission in a context of positive and elevated viremia in the mother and positive viremia in the newborn.
