Active clinical trials for "Toxemia"

Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are one of the most frequent complications of pregnancy, being a serious health problem around the world. Previous studies have suggested that there is an association between a short period of exposure to paternal sperm of a new sexual partner and the development of an immunological reaction that could trigger a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy. For this reason we want to study the relationship between the primipaternity concept (exposure to male antigens present in semen over a short period of time previous to the pregnancy) and the development of preeclampsia in adolescents.

Data on 4G/5G polymorphism of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) gene are limited in Asian patients with sepsis. Therefore, the investigators aim to prospectively investigate the incidence of 4G/5G polymorphism and its relationship with disseminated intravascluar coagulatin in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock.

The hypothesis of this study is that bioenergetic failure in human sepsis, related to endocrine, metabolic and mitochondrial dysfunction, is a major determinant of defective host immune responses, increasing disease severity and risk of death. The objectives of this study are to examine the relationship between the severity of illness, and temporal changes in the activity of endocrine, metabolic and bioenergetic pathways, and consequent immune dysfunction in critically ill patients with sepsis and multiple organ failure in the Intensive Care Unit.

Children treated with intensive chemotherapy are at increased risk for life-threatening infections (sepsis). As the survival of oncology patients increased with the use of aggressive treatment protocols, there was also an increase in the need for hospitalization in intensive care units (ICU) due to sepsis.Several prognostic factors are known to affect the survival of these patients, including the number and type of damaged systems, the type of oncology disease and the duration of neutropenia. With the development of the treatment of ICU, the survival of the oncology patients hospitalized for sepsis has also increased. We will collect demographic details, details of their oncology and infections, laboratory tests and imaging. The goal is to identify prognostic factors in oncologic children hospitalized in ICU due to sepsis, as well as clinical and laboratory parameters that characterize this group of patients.

This clinical study is to evaluate a novel biomarker - CNA Rapid Sepsis Dx - to predict the development of sepsis in patients admitted to the hospital with non-sepsis conditions. Using circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in the blood stream, it has been demonstrated to detect infection response days before clinical evidence of sepsis manifests. The hypothesis is that blood biomarkers drawn daily in the hospital will identify patients who develop sepsis within seven days of hospital presentation.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk factors for mortality of sepsis and to create mathematical models to predict the survival rate based on electronic health records that extracted from hospital information system. More than 1000 records should be collected and used to data analysis. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression model were applied to risk factors analysis for the outcome, and machine learn algorithms were employed to generate predictive models for the outcome.

Sepsis is a syndrome involving infection and an abnormal systemic inflammatory response in the infected organism, resulting in organ dysfunction and possibly death. It is a major cause of hospital mortality. A large proportion of sepsis diagnoses are made in emergency departments. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment have been shown to reduce mortality from this disease. In a context of limited resources, it is therefore important to be able to quickly stratify patients presenting to the emergency department with a suspected infection into those who require rapid and intensive management because they are at risk of developing sepsis and septic shock and those who can be managed conventionally The objective of this study is to compare the clinical intuition of emergency room physicians and nurses with the qSOFA score to predict the clinical course of patients presenting to the emergency room with potential sepsis.

The present study focuses on patients with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PSA) sepsis. The aim of the present study is to find out whether the M1 (pro-inflammatory) or M2 (anti-inflammatory) phenotype predominates in blood monocytes in critically ill patients with PSA-sepsis, and whether the severity of sepsis and outcome is associated with distinct monocyte phenotype and function.

Prevailing microorganisms causing neonatal sepsis in neonatal intensive care unit of Assiut University children Hospital Methods prospective study conducted in the neonatal intensive care unit in Assiut university children hospital.

To investigate the relationship between initial ClearSight™ derived hemodynamic parameters and outcomes (death, ongoing organ dysfunction or delayed ICU admission) in patients with acute infection and possible sepsis, with a focus on venous blood lactate (< 2.0, 2.0-3.9, and ≥ 4.0 mmol/dL) and hemodynamic subgroups, using ED patients presenting with minor infections or asthma/COPD exacerbations as controls (henceforth referred to as Sepsis Mimic Group).
