Active clinical trials for "Communicable Diseases"

Testing and comparison of a novel point-of-care electrochemical assay to detect and help diagnose periprosthetic joint infection on the hip and knee to the standard of care test

Antibody deficiencies and complement deficiencies are the most frequent Primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) in adults, and are associated with greatly increased susceptibility to recurrent and/or severe bacterial infections - especially upper and lower respiratory tract infections and meningitis. The literature data suggest that PIDs are under-diagnosed in adults. The current European and US guidelines advocate screening adults for PIDs if they present recurrent benign especially upper and lower respiratory tract infections, or if they have experienced at least two severe bacterial infections and/or have a recurrent need for intravenous antibiotics. The objective of the demonstrate the interest of PIDs screening in adult patients who present such recurrent infections and/or after the first severe bacterial infection, especially when the patients do not present with known, etiologically relevant comorbidities.

The goal of this observational study is to compare the FINDER FLU A/B, RSV, SARS-CoV-2 Test to an FDA-cleared device. The study will utilize prospectively collected de-identified nasopharyngeal samples obtained from both pediatric and adult populations from subjects presenting with symptoms of respiratory illness. The main question it aims to answer are: • the study is to validate that the device intended use in terms that the device's performance meets the criteria for substantial equivalence with a predicate and satisfies the statutory criteria for Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) waiver.

The aim of the study is to establish an infectious risk stratification system based on pre-and post-operative blood endotoxin profile.

Emergence of Covid-19 virus is associated with high frequency of extremely severe clinical pictures, with minor signs of CNS impairment (e.g. anosmia, headache). Since neurotropism is a common feature of coronavirus infection in animals, the investigators examine if indirect signs of CNS lesion are observed in association with severe Covid-19 infection.

We hypothesize that probiotic Lactobacillus can augment antibiotic treatment of symptomatic urinary tract infection (UTI) in spinal cord injured patients, and also increase the time to the next episode of UTI.

Prevalence of Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) and co-infections in the general population

Post-transplant patients with COVID-19 infection who attended Shenzhen No. 3 Hospital from December 2022 to February 2023, and enrolled the general population with COVID-19 infection who were hospitalized during the same period, matched by age and gender.

The objective of this study is to compare the physiologic resolution of dental infections between immediate tooth extraction (control group) and administration of systemic antibiotics and delayed extraction (study groups 1 and 2). A secondary objective is two compare two different antibiotic regimens in the delayed extraction groups (study group 1 and 2).
