Resistant Bacteria in Children in France
Infection Due to Resistant BacteriaMulti-antibiotic Resistance8 moreThis study is observational, multicenter and prospective study for surveillance of the use of new antibiotics in pediatrics for treated pediatrics infections due to multi-resistant bacteria
A Combinatorial Biomarker for Infection Diagnosis in Children
Respiratory Tract InfectionsFeverTo describe the epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, therapy, and treatment outcomes of patients in whom the combination biomarker BV (combination of TRAIL, IP-10, and CRP) is used, and to compare them with control patients without BV measurement. Secondary objectives: Qualitative evaluation of indication as well as adherence to the test result. Comparison of antimicrobial therapy, performed diagnostics, hospitalization, and outcomes between patients with high BV score (bacterial) and patients with low BV score (viral).
The Effectiveness of Temple Stay in Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable Bowel SyndromeMicrobial ColonizationThis research is a clinical trial aimed at improving the gut microbiome of patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) through a temple stay experience. Participants in the study are expected to participate in a temple stay experience for a maximum of 8 days. During the temple stay experience, participants are required to fill out a daily symptom questionnaire related to irritable bowel syndrome and record their diet and bowel movements using a dedicated mobile application. Upon completion of the temple stay, participants will conduct an evaluation of personal satisfaction with the experience. Through this, the study aims to collect and analyze data related to the Templestay experience with the goal of improving the gut microbiome of patients with IBS.
Evaluation of the Prevalence of Oral HPV Infection in Patients Who Are Positive to the PAP-test...
HPV InfectionThe present cross-sectional study aims to assess the prevalence and type distribution of oral HPV infection in PAP-test-positive women aged ≥18 years. The means used in the present study will be the use of anamnestic questionnaires and exfoliative cytology tests at predetermined oral mucosal sites (lingual belly and dorsum, palate, and buccal mucosa).
Evaluation of Extubation Criteria in Children With Upper Respiratory Infection (URI)
Upper Respiratory Tract InfectionsThe investigators are currently completing a data collection to try to optimize pediatric patients' preoperative screening, in the setting of an upper respiratory infection.
COVID-19 and Pregnancy Outcomes
Coronavirus InfectionPregnancy Complications3 moreThis is a multicenter prospective study that aims to investigate the clinical impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnant women, pregnancy outcomes and perinatal transmission.
Hantavirus Registry Gathers Knowledge on Epidemiology, Clinical Course, Prognostic Factors and Molecular...
Hantavirus InfectionsHemorrhagic Fever With Renal Syndrome2 moreHantavirus disease are zoonotic infections and remain a clinical challenge with globally increasing incidence and multiple serious outbreak situations in Europe within the last years. Hantavirus disease encompasses two clinical syndromes, hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) caused by Old World and New World hantaviruses, respectively. Depending on the causative Old World hantavirus species, clinical course of HFRS can vary from mild to moderate to severe. At present, there is no specific therapy available for hantavirus disease. As the clinical course of hantavirus disease is dependent on the causing viral pathogen and as there worrisome hints that clinical course HFRS and HCPS overlap, further studies with regard to the disease course are mandatory. Furthermore, the examination of attributable mortality and costs of hantavirus disease will need to be studied on a multinational basis and therefore HantaReg will particularly use a matched case control design.
COVID-19 Patients Characterization, Biobank, Treatment Response and Outcome Predictor
Coronavirus InfectionsCollection and analysis of demographic, clinical, radiographic and laboratory characteristics of CoViD-19 patients to identify predictors of disease severity, mortality and treatment response, and to identify subgroup of patients that might benefit from specific therapeutic interventions
Nasal Decolonization of Dialysis Patients Noses
Staphylococcus Aureus InfectionHemodialysis patients are at high-risk for infections, specifically Staphylococcus aureus infections. The investigators propose to 1) implement a novel intervention (nasal povidone-iodine at each hemodialysis session) to prevent S. aureus infections using a stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial, and 2) evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of this intervention. If successful, this intervention can be used among hemodialysis patients, and evaluated in other high-risk patient populations to prevent S. aureus infections.
French COVID Cohort
Coronavirus InfectionsInfectious disease is the single biggest cause of death worldwide. New infectious agents, such as the SARS, MERS and other novel coronavirus, novel influenza viruses, viruses causing viral haemorrhagic fever (e.g. Ebola), and viruses that affect the central nervous system (CNS) such as TBEV & Nipah require investigation to understand pathogen biology and pathogenesis in the host. Even for known infections, resistance to antimicrobial therapies is widespread, and treatments to control potentially deleterious host responses are lacking. In order to develop a mechanistic understanding of disease processes, such that risk factors for severe illness can be identified and treatments can be developed, it is necessary to understand pathogen characteristics associated with virulence, the replication dynamics and in-host evolution of the pathogen, the dynamics of the host response, the pharmacology of antimicrobial or host-directed therapies, the transmission dynamics, and factors underlying individual susceptibility. The work proposed here may require sampling that will not immediately benefit the participants. It may also require analysis of the host genome, which may reveal other information about disease susceptibility or other aspects of health status.
