Active clinical trials for "Hypersensitivity"

To assess the importance Of Ct scan in the prediction of fixation failure of per-trochanteric fractures

This study aims to investigate the potential association between pain sensitivity questionnaire score, the severity of postoperative pain, and postoperative analgesic requirement in patients with open colorectal cancer surgery. This information may be used to guide the optimal postoperative pain management, and ultimately improve patient's quality of life.

This study aims to investigate the incidence of venous thromboembolism in people who are diagnosed with atopic dermatitis.

The purpose of this study is to: a) identify enablers and barriers to deliberate ultraviolet light exposure by young sexual minority men (SMM), and b) quantify the extent of their deliberate ultraviolet light exposure.

Food allergy derives from a dysregulation of oral tolerance mechanisms. Studies suggest a crucial role for gut microbiota in oral tolerance development. An altered composition of gut microbiota results in an unbalanced local and systemic immune response to food allergens. There are qualitative and quantitative differences in gut microbiota composition in children with food allergy. Preliminary results of MATFA study demonstrated gut microbiota in allergic children.These findings support the pivotal role of the gut microbiota in the pathogenesis of allergic diseases and may open new strategies in the development of innovative preventive and therapeutic approaches.

The aim of this study is to investigate the degree of match between the drug allergy label in the hospital's electronic health record and primary care's electronic health record among patients who previously have been drug allergy tested.

This study is an Expanded Access Protocol (EAP) of JZP458 in participants with ALL/LBL who are hypersensitive to an E.coli-derived asparaginase (allergic reaction or silent inactivation) and unable to access alternative licensed treatment, to receive JZP458 treatment prior to potential Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval and commercial availability.

Anaphylaxis is an allergic reaction potentially fatal. The treatment is based on injection of epinephrin as soon as possible. Guidelines by the World Allergic Organisation highlight the importance of medical follow-up. This follow-up consists of an allergy consultation, the prescription and demonstration of epinephrin auto-injector and the implementation of specific measures in schools. There is no study about the recurrence of anaphylactic reaction outside the hospital. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the allergy follow-up of children after anaphylactic reaction. The secondary objective is to evaluate the use of medical advice in case of recurrence of anaphylactic reaction. Investigators will use a phone call questionnaire for parents of children who underwent an anaphylactic reaction between the 1st July 2014 and the 31st June 2016 treated in the Paediatric Emergency Department in Femme-Mère-Enfant Hospital in Lyon in France. 179 children could be included in the study.

Food allergies are constantly increasing. Peanut and nut allergies are a major cause of allergic reactions. Diagnosed patients are also at risk, because 27% of the patients that had an allergic reaction have another one in the following year with the same food, despite a real improvement in industrial products labeling. The investigators have observed in the allergy Unit that patients (and/or their family) following an elimination diet, sometimes since several years, use very strict elimination strategies. Those strategies sometimes lead to incapacities to recognize the allergens. Yet, a good identification of the allergen is the key to a successful elimination and the non-identification a known risk factor. Ferdman shown in 2006 that 27% of the patients didn't recognize the allergen there were allergic to. However, this is a US study, and geographical specificities have an impact on food consumption and culture. Food allergology needs to take those two elements into account. For example, in France, a single food can have two names. It is the case of peanut, which can be called "arachide", or more frequently "cacahuète". The goal of the study is to observe patient aptitudes to recognize peanut (and the association between the two names) and other nuts available in France and define by the European law, using a plate with various food samples in seed or in shell. Thus, patients in care at the allergy Unit of Saint Vincent Hospital of Lille (France) and their families were surveyed with a standardized procedure at the beginning of their therapeutic education and their capacity to recognize various nuts, to identify peanut ("cacahuète" or "arachide") and to associate the two words "cacahuète" and "arachide" was assessed. It is a standard procedure in therapeutic education, and the responses have been systematically entered in the medical record. The main objective of this study is to describe peanut or nut allergic patient capacity (adult, children and/or the family) to visually identify the foods there are allergic to. The secondary objective of this study is to describe the capacity of patient that describe themselves as allergic to "arachide" to associate this word to the word "cacahuète".

The pathophysiological mechanisms explaining the association between psoriasis and type 2 diabetes are largely unknown but it has been hypothesized that systemic inflammation found in both psoriasis and type 2 diabetes might play a role. In a recent study hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamps were performed and it showed that normal glucose-tolerant patients with moderate to severe psoriasis had lower whole-body insulin sensitivity during insulin stimulation compared to healthy matched controls. Thus, the increased risk of type 2 diabetes in patients with psoriasis appears to include defects in the glucose metabolism linked to psoriasis itself. However, the methods applied did not allow a detailed characterization of the metabolism in patients with psoriasis. Tracer technique combined with indirect calorimetry has never been applied to study hepatic and whole body insulin sensitivity, and glucose and fat oxidation, during basal conditions or during insulin stimulation in patients with psoriasis. Aim of study: The aim of this study is to investigate hepatic and whole body insulin sensitivity and glucose and fat oxidation during both basal and insulin-stimulated conditions in patients with psoriasis.
