Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

We designed this study to examine whether COVID-19 infection could lead to retinal and choroidal microvascular involvement in school-age children (6-18 years) in a pandemic peak in China.

The study aims to test the frequency of severe acute respiratory syndrome new corona virus SARS-CoV-2 or other respiratory viruses in patients presenting with anosmia or dysgeusia to Ain Shams University Hospitals, Cairo, Egypt.

The primary aim of this research proposal is to use multimodal metrics (e.g., clinical data and advanced neuroimaging) in the early (i.e., acute hospitalization) phase of recovery from COVID-19-related disorders of consciousness to predict outcome at 3, 6, and 12 months post-hospitalization. We aim to construct an algorithm that synthesizes the results of these metrics to help predict recovery.

Evaluate SARS-CoV2 infection and the degree of immunity possibly developed in transplanted population using the Luciferase Immuno Precipitation System (LIPS) test.

The new coronavirus pandemic responsible for the severe acute respiratory syndrome SARS-CoV2 requires, in its severe forms, the use of invasive ventilation in intensive care. The first patients seen in intensive care presented with neurological symptoms and usually not seen in non-viral ARDS or due to other viral causes. These were mainly restless awakenings, attempts at self-extubation and confusional syndromes. Although the data in the literature do not seem to reveal the presence of SARS-CoV2 in the CSF of these patients, certain elements seem to show parenchymal brain damage with the description of hypometabolism of the frontal regions. In addition, most of these patients present a memory complaint after going into intensive care (personal data not published). We do not know to date what is the cognitive and psychic profile of these patients, nor what will be their future evolution. Some patients may require specific neuro-cognitive rehabilitation. The aim of this study is to assess the cognitive profile of patients infected with COVID-19 who have used invasive ventilation in the intensive care unit of Paris Saint-Joseph hospital since April 2020, in order to be able to compare them between them and follow their evolution in the medium term. This work could make it possible to describe the specific cognitive impairment of SARS-CoV2, by trying to evade other causes of cognitive disorders in patients hospitalized in intensive care for respiratory distress (hypoxia, treatments, metabolic disorders, etc.). The main objective is to follow the medium-term evolution between 3 and 6 months of the cognitive profile of patients with severe form of SARS-CoV2 with the use of ventilatory resuscitation.

The infectivity of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), notably when handling human samples, remains poorly understood, as well as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in routine clinical and molecular pathology practice, and for personal working in pathology laboratories. This study evaluates the consequences of the COVID-19 crisis in clinical and molecular pathology laboratories in Europe mostly those orientated for diagnosis of thoracic diseases.

COVID-19 infected pregnant women is thought to have variable degrees of inflammatory response against the disease. Investigators of present study, suggested that fetuses are affected from the possible fetal inflammatory syndrome in case of maternal COVID-19. Therefore the aim of his study is to evaluate that if the cardiothymic index is affected by the maternal COVID-19 and to demonstrate any possible association of this measurement with neonatal morbidities.

People with cancer may be at higher risk of poor outcomes with COVID-19 infection. This observational study aims to describe the clinical course of COVID-19 infection in people with cancer and evaluate the utility of antibody and antigen tests for COVID-19. The results of this study will inform clinical practice in the management of cancer patients with COVID-19.

Little is known about the physical function outcomes in patients with severe COVID-19 patients who are admitted to Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for invasive mechanical ventilation. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the short-term impact on physical function before hospital discharge in subjects with severe COVID-19 who have survived ICU admission for invasive mechanical ventilation.

Under the COVID-19, individuals who were home Quarantine experienced new challenges on their parent-child relationship and couple relationship. The current project aimed to provide psychological interventions for both parents and couples in order to improving their relationship. The online intervention of group intervention and individual intervention are going to be conducted. The relationship between parent-child, couples and emotion regulation will be tested.
