Active clinical trials for "Acute Disease"

The investigators hypothesized that acute bronchitis will be associated with various bacteria and viruses.

The aim of the present study is to detect the expression of TET 1 gene in patients with acute leukemia and its correlation with clinical and pathological criteria of the patients.

To determine incidence of Expression of aberrant CD markers in acute leukemia in South Egypt . Correlation between this expression and outcome of the patient.

The purpose of this study is to describe the incidence, clinic characteristics, biological and suvirval in Lymphoblastic Leukemia patients in Mexico City reference hospitals.

This study aims to identify and validate the gene expression differentials of peripheral blood mononuclear cells and differential inflammation profiles and other aspects in classic asthma, cough-variant asthma and eosinophilic bronchitis.

Clinical presentation and management of Mixed-Phenotype Acute leukemia (MPAL) is heterogeneous. This descriptive observationnal study aims to review MPAL cases in the East of France based on a 10-year multicentre retrospective collection.

COVID-19 (also known as Coronavirus) originated in the Wuhan China and has since spread to at least 159 countries around the world. It was declared a pandemic by the World health organisation on the 11th of March 2020. The cases in the United Kingdom continue to increase exponentially with up to 5 683 people diagnosed as on the 22nd of March 2020. It is estimated that 1 in 5 people diagnosed will require hospital admission and 1 in 20 intensive care treatment. By developing and improving diagnostic testing, we can accurately diagnose infected cases to triage appropriate treatments, identify individuals for quarantine in order to prevent transmission and obtain information regarding patient's immune systems. At present, the diagnostic test is a highly specific method of genetic amplification called 'Reverse Transcription - Polymerase Chain Reaction' or RT-PCR, which allows detection of very small amounts of genetic mutations caused by the COVID-19 virus. However, this method must be completed in highly specialised facilities, which are few and far between, increasing time to diagnosis (currently 48-72 hours), increasing exposure to non-infected individuals, and overburdening the analysing facilities. The ideal solution is a point of care (POC) test that can give results immediately. This study aims to harness the point of care technology of the SAMBA II device (Diagnostics for the Real World Ltd.), which is a CE-marked device that has been used with success in the identification of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), by amplifying genetic material without the need to increase and decrease temperatures during the amplification process. In the COVIDx study, 200 patients meeting the Public Health England's (PHE) inpatient definition of having suspected COVID-19 will be approached, consented and a sample from throat and nasal swab (combined) or tracheal fluid taken and tested using the SAMBA II method. A combination of the standard PHE RT-PCR and an additional validated laboratory PCR technique will be used as a control in line with standard clinical practice. Patients will undergo an additional serum tests on existing samples as made available after routine clinical assessments to monitor antibody response. Patients will be followed for clinical outcomes at 28 days post-admission.
