Lung Microbiome and Inflammation in Early COPD
This is a cross sectional case controlled study to assess lung microbiome and inflammation in smokers with and without Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Investigators will look at active bacterial metabolic pathways in the lower airways using metagenomic and metabolomic approaches an assess relationships among microbiome, metagenome, metabolome and host …
Atorvastatin to Reduce Inflammation After Tuberculosis Treatment Completion
This is a proof-of-concept phase IIB, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 40 mg atorvastatin to reduce persistent lung inflammation after successful TB treatment completion in HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected adults measured by PET/CT.
Optimizing Ultrasound-induced Anti-inflammation in Human Subjects
This is a feasibility study to determine whether pulsed ultrasound stimulation targeting the splenic nerve or the cervical vagus nerve can elicit an anti-inflammatory immune response in healthy volunteers.
Inflammation in Clear Aligners With and Without Attachments
Problem: Clear aligner therapy is widely used in orthodontics due to improved periodontal outcomes compared to fixed appliances. However, composite attachments are frequently bonded to molars to enhance biomechanics, potentially creating plaque-retentive areas that may increase localized inflammatory responses. Currently, no studies have directly compared periodontal inflammatory biomarker levels in …
The Impact of Vaginal Washing on Cervical Inflammation
Vaginal washing is a common practice that many women perceive as hygienic. However, vaginal washing has been linked to adverse reproductive health outcomes including increased HIV acquisition risk. The mechanism linking vaginal washing to HIV risk remains unknown, but may be related to increased inflammation caused by intravaginal washing practices. …
Association of Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy and Chronic Placental Inflammation
This observational prospective study will help to determine if an immune process similar to allograft rejection is responsible for the occurrence of an intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). If so, it would suggest the potential benefit of immunomodulatory therapeutics.
Upper Airway Inflammation and Olfaction: Mechanisms of Loss and Recovery
The goal of this clinical trial is to understand the mechanisms leading to olfactory dysfunction (OD) in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). The main questions it aims to answer are: Is the type 2 inflammation impacting the olfactory epithelium regeneration, leading to OD? Does a treatment interfering with one of the major …
Complement Inhibition: Attacking the Overshooting Inflammation @Fter Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (CIAO@SAH)
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) can lead to devastating outcomes for patients, like cognitive decline. This is caused by early brain injury (EBI) followed by delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). Neuroinflammation, triggered by the complement system, has been investigated to be a key mediator in the pathophysiology of EBI and DCI. Inhibition …
Early Intervention in Plaque Psoriasis: is Bimekizumab Able to Delay Chronic Inflammation?
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory condition driven by a complex interplay between heritable and microenvironmental factors. Genome-wide heritability for psoriasis (PsO) is estimated at up to 50%. Although bearing genetic susceptibility at birth, most patients will remain disease free for years until an exposomal trigger activates the immunological pathway that …
Plaque and Brain Inflammation in Symptomatic Carotid Stenosis: Role of the Ficolin-2
Carotid artery stenosis is observed in about 3% of ≥ 60 years subjects and accounts for around 10-20% of all ischemic strokes. Beyond the degree of stenosis, plaque composition affects the risk of ischemic stroke. Identification of patients with vulnerable plaques at higher risk of stroke who might benefit from …
