Active clinical trials for "Sneezing"

The study is a clinical evaluation of an over the counter (OTC) combination product containing paracetamol (500 mg), dimethindene maleate (1 mg), phenylephrine hydrochloride (10 mg) compared to paracetamol (500 mg) alone in the treatment of nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, sneezing and other symptoms due to upper respiratory tract infection (URTI).

Kennedy et al, in a study of pediatric Emergency Department (ED) use by newborns less than 14 days of age, revealed that half of all visits in this population were non-acute problems. Other pediatric ED utilization studies have shown similar findings in that 32% to 72% of all visits were for non-urgent problems. Many studies have found that primiparity and young maternal age are associated with non-acute ED presentations. A recent factor that has been investigated is the effect of early neonatal discharge. Some other factors are nonwhite mothers and mothers on Medicaid. Zandieh et al, found additional predisposing determinants for non-urgent ED visits, such as single parenthood, Hispanic ethnicity, and having perceptions that their child's overall physical health was poor. Paradis et al found that parents receiving a video intervention rated higher confidence with specific infant care skills and reported feeling better prepared to care for their baby, compared to parents receiving only handouts. However, there isn't any reported study that evaluates the benefits of receiving both, a video intervention along with handouts. Aim: to demonstrate whether conducting anticipatory guidance related to non-urgent problems will reduce non-urgent ED visits, compared to care as usual (CAU) anticipatory guidance (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome and Shaken Baby Syndrome videos; and unstructured talk about jaundice, vaccinations, appointments, care of umbilical stump, normal urination and bowel movement, fever).

Demonstrate the therapeutic clinical equivalence of two mometasone nasal sprays in the relief of the signs and symptoms of perennial allergic rhinitis, in term of changes at week 8 from baseline of Total Nasal Symptom Scores (TNSS).

People swimming or surfing in lake Kineret , sometimes complain of nasal stuffiness , sneezing and itching .Typically, it happens during or immediately after contact with the lake's water . The symptoms are compatible with immediate allergic reaction. Previous reports suggested a connection between similar symptoms and contact with different cyanobacteria (living in fresh water lakes). In this study we intend to prove the mechanism of these reactions. To prove the exact allergen that causes allergic rhinitis allergists perform skin tests with different suspected allergens. Likewise, we would like to perform skin tests to different proteins extracted from cyanobacteria collected in lake Kineret.
