Active clinical trials for "Infections"

to study the effect of early vs delayed enteral feeding following ASARP in females with congenital recto-vestibular fistula

This is a single-patient, phase I/II clinical trial that aims to evaluate the potential of bacteriophage therapy to treat and prevent the recurrence of a drug-resistant urinary tract infection with serious long-term effects. This study will follow a minimally invasive phage therapy approach consisting of oral, topical (opening of the urethra) and bladder installations of a 3-phage cocktail comprised of HP3, HP3.1 and ES19.

Among postmenopausal women who suffer from recurrent urinary tract infections (UTI), vaginal estrogen therapy prevents UTI recurrences for 50% of sufferers. This research will investigate why some women benefit but others do not, focusing on (a) the effects of vaginal estrogen therapy on the bacteria that inhabit the vagina and bladder, (b) its influence on immune responses in both compartments, and (c) the extent to which those changes are critical to successful UTI prevention. The findings will be a first step in the development of more effective strategies to prevent UTI, one of the most common and costly benign urologic conditions.

An over-the-counter vaginal care system is being tested to see if it may be effective in preventing recurrence of symptomatic urinary tract infection (UTI) in women who have had multiple UTIs within the past year.

The treatment of helicobacter pylori is very important. The routine treatment is quadruple therapy. In recent years, double therapy has appeared and the curative effect is fair. However, antacid generally uses proton pump inhibitor. The proton pump inhibitor needs double dose to achieve good antacid curative effect. The effect of Tegoprazan used for inhibiting gastric acid is better than proton pump inhibitor. At present, some studies use Tegoprazan instead of common proton pump inhibitor, but almost all use double dose of Tegoprazan. In the previous study, we found that the effect of double dose of proton pump inhibitor can be achieved with 50mg QD of Tegoprazan. Therefore, in this study, 50mg QD of Tegoprazan was used to replace the double dose of proton pump inhibitor to observe the antibacterial effect of Tegoprazan on Helicobacter pylori.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of navitoclax when given together with sorafenib tosylate in treating patients with solid tumors that have returned (relapsed) or do not respond to treatment (refractory). Navitoclax and sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

The overarching goal of the Master Protocol is to find effective strategies for inpatient management of patients with COVID-19. Therapeutic goals for patients hospitalized for COVID-19 include hastening recovery and preventing progression to critical illness, multiorgan failure, or death. Our objective is to determine whether modulating the host tissue response improves clinical outcomes among patients with COVID-19.

This study aims to compare the effectiveness of preoperative single dose of levofloxacin with postoperative levofloxacin for three days on the incidence of urinary tract infections (UTI) after urodynamic examination.

The goal of this randomized non-pharmacological Intervention study is to evaluate the effects of probiotic supplements (Bifidobacterium breve M-16V, Bifidobacterium lactis HN019, Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001) on children affected by upper respiratory tract infections. The main questions it aims to answer are: probiotic formulation can reduce intensity and duration of fever in children affected by upper respiratory tract infections probiotic formulation can influence the gut microbiota composition in children affected by upper respiratory tract infections Participants will be asked to take probiotic supplements or placebo for 14 days and to collect three fecal samples: before probiotic supplementation (T0), 14 days after probiotic supplementation (T1), and 12 months after the enrollment (T2).

The investigators propose a pragmatic comparative effectiveness trial evaluating several decolonization strategies in patients with Staphylococcus aureus infection, their household contacts, and household environmental surfaces. The central hypothesis of this proposal is that an integrated approach of periodic personal and household environmental hygiene will reduce S. aureus transmission in households and subsequently decrease the incidence of skin and soft tissue infections (SSTI).
