Active clinical trials for "Acute-Phase Reaction"

Prolonged fasting may increase the organic response to trauma. Carbohydrate-based drinks have been tested and they may reduce insulin resistance. No study so far has aimed to examine the possible benefits of whey protein drink in the composition of preoperative drinks.

This study aimed to investigate gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and serum levels of LRG, interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in patients with periodontitis before and after non-surgical periodontal treatment.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether erythrocyte mediated dexamethasone delivery reduces circulating inflammatory markers after coronary stent implantation and improves clinical and angiographic outcomes.

Acute phase response (APR) is one of the most common adverse events in osteoporosis with zoledronic acid treatment. It's reported that this reaction is related to the blockade of the mevalonate pathway, leading to isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) accumulation. And the latter can active γδT cells in the circulation, resulting in inflammatory cytokine release. Statins can inhibit the conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate that may reduce the accumulation of IPP. Therefore, it is possible that statins can be taken in advance to reduce APR caused by zoledronic acid infusion.

This study is a cross-sectional study, was conducted at Chest department of Kasr Al-ainy Hospital, Cairo university during the period between October 2020 and April 2021. The aim of the work was to evaluate levels of acute phase reactants(APR) in Non-COVID-19 bacterial pneumonia, and to correlate between levels of APR and the disease severity.

The hypothesis underlying this work is the identification of different sub phenotypes of patients with infective endocarditis through the study of the host's response to infection. Furthemore, metagenomic sequencing may be a helpful supplement to IE diagnostic, especially when conventional tests fail to yield a diagnosis.

Acute Migraine attacks can be related to vascular or coagulation activation. Previous studies found relative high incidence of prothrombotic events in Migraine. The present study intends to assess the coagulation system and activation in patients with Migraine during steady state phase and at the beginning of attacks and after 72 hours. A control group of patients with another acute neurologic event like convulsions will be also studied. Patients will be at pediatric age and teenagers.

The primary hypothesis that orthopaedic surgery induces a neuroinflammatory response within 48 hours after elective hip or knee surgery and that there is an association between exaggerated CNS inflammatory response or impaired inflammatory resolution and postoperative cognitive dysfunction within one week and at three months postoperatively.

This study evaluates the follow-up of advices given in a Urgent Medical Aid Service (SAMU 29) for every pediatric's emergency call under 15yo and try to evaluate the adhesion's factors.

A study will be conducted to determine if there is any cognitive benefit in elderly patients having open versus minimally invasive colon cancer surgery.
