Platform Trial For Cryptococcal Meningitis
Cryptococcal meningitis is a fungal infection that causes a severe syndrome of meningitis that is 100% fatal without antifungal therapy. Even with antifungal therapy, mortality rates remain high, especially in low and middle income countries where the ongoing HIV/AIDS pandemic increases the risk of cryptococcosis among persons living with HIV …
Intensified Tuberculosis Treatment to Reduce the Mortality of Patients With Tuberculous Meningitis
INTENSE-TBM is randomized controlled, phase III, multicenter, 2 x 2 factorial plan superiority trial assessing the efficacity of two interventions to reduce mortality from tuberculous meningitis (TBM) in adolescents and adults with or without HIV-infection in sub-Saharan Africa: Intensified TBM treatment with high-dose rifampicin and linezolid, compared to WHO standard …
Tnf Inhibitors to Reduce Mortality in HIV-1 Infected PAtients With Tuberculosis meNIngitis
Randomized phase II clinical trial which aims to assess the impact on 3-month mortality and safety of adding adalimumab to standard treatment (anti-tuberculosis drugs and corticosteroids) in HIV patients with tuberculosis meningitis in 3 countries (Brazil, Mozambique, and Zambia).
Single Dose Liposomal Amphotericin for Asymptomatic Cryptococcal Antigenemia
This will be a randomized controlled trial of asymptomatic (Cryptococcal Antigen test)CrAg positive persons in Uganda. Patients will be randomized to receive preemptive treatment with 1 dose of liposomal amphotericin (10mg/kg) in addition to standard of care fluconazole therapy. How the enhanced antifungal therapy prevents progression to meningitis in the …
Trial of a Six-Month Regimen of High-Dose Rifampicin, High-Dose Isoniazid, Linezolid, and Pyrazinamide Versus a Standard Nine-Month Regimen for the Treatment of Adults and Adolescents With Tuberculous Meningitis
The purpose of this study is to compare a 6-month regimen of high-dose rifampicin (RIF), high-dose isoniazid (INH), linezolid (LZD), and pyrazinamide (PZA) versus the World Health Organization (WHO) standard of care (SOC) treatment for tuberculosis meningitis (TBM).
Meningitis: Burden, Causes, Screening and Prevention in Rural Northern Uganda
This study will investigate the burden, causes, diagnostics, treatments and preventive measures related to meningitis in northern Uganda. We hypothesize that understanding the burden of meningitis, risk factors, diagnostics, treatments and the preventive measures will provide information regarding the gaps in care that can be addressed in order to improve …
Same Day Diagnosis of Extrapulmonary TB (TB Serositis and TB Meningitis).
Extrapulmonary TB (EPTB) accounts for nearly 30% of TB cases in HIV endemic settings, such as South Africa. The diagnosis of extrapulmonary TB is complicated by the poor performance of Gene Xpert and TB Culture in extrapulmonary fluid (30-50% sensitive), as well as the poor specificity of ADA. We can …
Risk Assessment of Community Spread of Multiple Endemic Infectious Diseases in a One Health Perspective
RACSMEI addresses the high burden of infectious diseases in low- and middle-income countries, including Cambodia, where limited surveillance and laboratory capacity often obscure etiologies and transmission dynamics. This knowledge gap hinders the design of effective prevention and control strategies. RACSMEI will improve understanding across multiple pathogens using a multidisciplinary One …
Bedside Ultrasound on the Effectiveness of Lumbar Puncture in Children.
The aim of the study is to assess the influence of ultrasound examination of the lumbar spinal canal on the effectiveness of lumbar puncture. An open-label, randomized interventional study.
Optic Nerve Ultrasound for Assessing Cerebral Inflammation and Intracranial Hypertension in Cerebral Pathologies
Timely detection of signs of raised intracranial pressure or persistent inflammation within the meninges can expedite therapeutic decisions improving the prognosis of patients with brain damage. Optic nerve ultrasonography provides a user-friendly, safe, low-cost, and non-invasive imaging method that can be easily deployed for ICU patient assessment. This study aims …
