Targeted Reversal of Inflammation in Pediatric Sepsis-induced MODS
Pediatric Sepsis-induced Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome (MODS)The TRIPS study is a prospective, multi-center, double-blind, adaptively randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial of the drug anakinra for reversal of moderate to severe hyperinflammation in children with sepsis-induced multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS).
The Rehabilitation of Atrophic Jaws Using Short Implants With Different Surface Characteristics...
Peri-Implantation LossPeriodontal Bone Loss4 moreThe aim of the research is to evaluate the clinical outcome of short dental implants, characterized by a new macro-structural design and inserted in the upper or lower jaw in patients with reduced bone volume. The clinical outcomes will be compared for different surface treatments of implant neck and those of prosthetic components.
Perivenous Dexamethasone Therapy: Examining Reduction of Inflammation After Thrombus Removal to...
ThrombosisDeep Vein1 moreThis is a study of a medical procedure that utilizes a commercially available catheter (the Bullfrog® Micro-Infusion Device) to locally deliver a commercially available anti-inflammatory drug (dexamethasone sodium phosphate injection) around the deep veins after DVT recanalization, where DVT symptoms were present for up to 14 days prior to recanalization. The goal of the study is to see if local anti-inflammation helps prevent re-thrombosis of the blood vessel and improvement in symptoms for up to 24 months after the initial DVT recanalization procedure.
Fingolimod in Endovascular Treatment of Ischemic Stroke
Stroke InflammationProof-of concept clinical trials have indicated that the sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor modulator fingolimod may be efficacious in attenuating brain inflammation and improving clinical outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke as a single therapy beyond 4.5 hours of disease onset, or in combination with alteplase within 4.5 hours of disease onset. This study aim to determine whether fingolimod enhance the action of endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke
Efficacy of Golimumab in Early Axial Spondyloarthritis in Relation to Gut Inflammation
Axial SpondyloarthritisThe hypothesis of the study is that the presence of (subclinical) gut inflammation at baseline in patients with early active axial spondyloarthritis predisposes to a more severe disease defined as more need to use anti-tumor necrosis factor α therapy and a shorter time to relapse after stopping anti-tumor necrosis factor α therapy after obtaining sustained clinical remission. Overall, the investigators hypothesize that subclinical gut inflammation is an important predictor in therapy response and outcome. These data could provide better insights into the complex interactions between gut and joint inflammation and guide the physicians in the therapeutic approach.
Using Vitamin D to Reduce Oral Mucosal Inflammation in Chemotherapy Patients With Oral Squamous...
Oral Squamous Cell CarcinomaOral MucositisOral squamous cell carcinoma is the most common malignant tumor of the oral and maxillofacial region. Currently, surgery is the main method of comprehensive treatment. TPF (paclitaxel, cisplatin, and fluorouracil) chemotherapy regimen is one of the important methods for the treatment of oral squamous cell carcinoma. Adjuvant chemotherapy before and after surgery can significantly improve the therapeutic effect of oral cancer patients. Oral mucositis (OM) is a common side effect during chemotherapy, which seriously affects the quality of life of chemotherapy patients and may lead to the termination of chemotherapy. Prevention and treatment of oral mucositis is still an urgent clinical problem. Investigators' previous studies have found that vitamin D can significantly inhibit the proliferation, migration, invasion and metastasis of oral squamous cell carcinoma cells, and vitamin D can protect normal oral mucosal tissue by inhibiting pyroptosis caused by platinum-based chemotherapy drugs. Based on the previous basic research, this project intends to conduct a single-center, prospective, clinical randomized controlled study on the clinical efficacy of vitamin D in reducing oral mucosal inflammation in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma undergoing TPF chemotherapy, in order to provide evidence-based medical evidence for the clinical use of vitamin D in reducing oral mucosal inflammation in patients with oral cancer chemotherapy. The results of this study are expected to serve as guidelines to guide clinical practice.
The Effects of Daily Anti-inflammatory Supplementation on Foundation Pain Index Scores in Chronic...
PainChronic3 moreThis is a research study to evaluate the effectiveness of daily supplementation with Root.Health, a plant-based dietary supplement, on reducing levels of 11 abnormal urine biomarkers associated with chronic pain. Biomarkers are molecules found in blood, tissues, or other body fluids (such as urine) that indicate normal or abnormal processes.
Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Autologous Adipose Tissue-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation...
Aging ProblemsAging1 moreSingle-group, open-label, phase I / II clinical trial: Evaluation of the safety of autologous adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in inflammaging (Ageing-related low-grade inflammation) patients.
Role of Desloratadine in Reducing Inflammation From Occupational Heat Strain
Heat StressExertional2 moreThe aim of this initial investigational study is to compare the effect of desloratadine on the inflammatory responses to heat stress in firefighters exercising in their personal protective equipment.
Optoacoustic Detection of Inflammation Using MSOT Device
Graft Vs Host DiseaseColitis1 moreThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and potential of a new experimental imaging instrument called multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT) to detect inflammation in patients with chronic graft versus host disease of the skin or GI tract, Crohn's disease, or Colitis disease.
