Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

The main objective of the study is to assess the feasibility, safety, and tolerability of the administration of HCR040, a drug whose active substance is HC016, allogeneic adipose-derived adult mesenchymal stem cells expanded and pulsed with H2O2, in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been declared as a Pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). According to WHO report on March 31st 2020, globally COVID-19 have infected over 750,000 people and caused over 36,000 deaths with case fatality rate of 4.85%. In Indonesia, COVID-19 have infected 1,414 people and caused 122 deaths with case fatality rate of 8.63%. In severe cases, COVID-19 causes complications, such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), sepsis, septic shock, and multi-organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), where age and comorbid illnesses as a major factor to these complications. Up to this point there are several promising therapies for COVID-19 but is not yet recommended and in need of further research. The use of convalescent plasma has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) through the scheme of emergency investigational new drug (eIND). This method has been used as the treatment in several outbreak or plague cases over the years, such as the flu epidemic in 1918, polio, measles, mumps, SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome), EVD (Ebola virus disease) and MERS (middle-eastern respiratory syndrome) and this treatment shows better outcome. Several case report on the use of convalescent plasma for COVID-19 patients with ARDS and mechanical ventilation has been reported and shows promising outcome. Nevertheless, larger and multicenter research need to be done to assess and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of convalescent plasma therapy on for COVID-19 patients with ARDS.

The POSITIVE platform offers the possibility of unsupervised monitoring of pre-frailty and frailty status in a community setting, to detect the onset of frailty and to assess its evolution. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate whether the POSITIVE system improves frailty in at least 1 point in the Fried's Criteria and 5 points in the FTS-5. This is a multi-centre, non-inferiority, randomized, simple blind and prospective pilot study with a 12-month follow up duration. The study will be carried out in Spain, Sweden and Poland. 150 participants will be randomized into two groups. The control group will receive usual medical care. The intervention group will receive, in addition, the POSITIVE frailty home monitoring and intervention system.

The safety and efficacy of Oligopin® will be compared against a placebo to evaluate the effect on metabolic risk factors in subjects with metabolic syndrome. During the 84-day study period it is hypothesized that HDL cholesterol will increase and systolic blood pressure will decrease therefore lowering CVD risk factors after supplementation with Oligopin®. Additionally, it is hypothesized that Oligopin® supplementation will reduce fasting glucose levels.

Interstitial Cystitis / bladder pain syndrome (CI / BPS) is a debilitating pathology with a negative impact on the quality of life of affected individuals. It is characterized as the sensation of pain or discomfort related to the urinary bladder, accompanied by symptoms of the lower urinary tract, in the absence of infection. Among the phenotypes are Cystitis with Hunner's ulcer, essentially inflammatory pathology and without Hunner's lesion, non-inflammatory frequently associated with somatoform systemic changes. Functional changes in urothelium and epithelial barrier, neurogenic inflammation and autoimmune mechanisms are involved in the development of the disease. Medical ozone has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, cytoprotective, antimicrobial and immunomodulatory properties. When administered, it is dissolved in biological fluids, immediately reacting with glycoproteins composed of carbohydrates and polypeptide chains. This reaction results in the formation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), lipid oxidation products (LOS), increased activation of erythroid-related nuclear transcription factors (Nrf2) activation of antioxidant response transcription elements (ARE) and increased variety of antioxidant enzymes that act as free radical scavengers. Benefits of O3 have been demonstrated in the treatment of neuropathic pain and hyperalgesia associated with the analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect. The objective of this work is to evaluate the effect of intravesical ozone gas administration in patients with Interstitial Cystitis / Painful Bladder Syndrome with low response to conventional therapy.

This Post-Market Clinical-Follow Up (PMCF) study gains data on the efficacy and safety of "Alflorex bei Reizdarm", a probiotic based on Bifidobacterium longum 35624, in the daily use by irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients. The aim of this study is the observation of the influence of "Alflorex bei Reizdarm" on typical symptoms, severity score and quality of life of IBS patients in medical practice and everyday use.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of iguratimod compared to placebo in patients with active primary Sjogren's Syndrome.

To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of tacrolimus eye drops (FK-506) in the treatment of Posner-Schlossman Syndrome. It is expected to collect 30 patients with PSS who are in the Ophthalmology Department of Peking University Third Hospital. The included PSS patients were divided into experimental group and control group using simple randomization method. Among them, the experimental group was treated with FK-506 twice a day, and the control group was treated with prednisolone acetate ophthalmic suspension 1% 4 times a day. For all PSS patients whose intraocular pressure is higher than 30mmHg, also add brinzolamide eye drops 3 times a day. Best corrected visual acuity, Goldmann intraocular pressure, anterior section photographs, corneal endothelial cells，corneal confocal microscope, Heidelberg retinal nerve analysis, Octopus visual field were examined on baseline and 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 4 weeks after the treatment.

In order to seek a more precise and convenient treatment, we made a self-made precise transplant capsule that is effective against diarrhea. Compared with standardized fecal microbiota transplantation transplantation on the treat of diarrhea-type irritable bowel syndrome. To observe the similarities and differences of the effect between the two treatment methods on the disease. and the changes in intestinal bacteria was also observed.

The study will be carried out at the hospital of the medical school of sao paulo (HC-FMUSP) and the goal is to compare the effects of the administration of myo-inositol in relation to the effects of metformin in women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and insulin resistance or glucose intolerance. Menstrual cycle, hyperandrogenism, chronic inflammatory process, carbohydrate metabolism, hepatic steatosis will be evaluated. In total, 60 women in the reproductive period, with a variable age between 18 and 36 years old will be recruited and randomized in two groups: intervention- myo-inositol for 6 months, control group will use metformin also for 6 months.
