COVID-19 Clinical Trials and Expanded Access

To Study the epidemiology of psychological distress among healthcare professionals of Max Super Speciality Hospital,Saket ,New Delhi in India during the COVID-19 Pandemic and assess the implications for providing psychological interventions(or therapeutic services)

The STOP-Coronavirus project is an integrated and multidisciplinary study that aims to analyze the impact that various factors have on the evolution and prognosis of the current COVID-19. Clinical presentation, immunological markers, therapeutic strategies, host and virus genomics, and bioethical considerations will be analyzed with a prospective multicenter cohort of patients with a diagnosis of COVID-19.

There is a considerable variation in the disease behavior in terms of contracting the infection, manifesting none to a range of symptoms and severity of the infection among individuals exposed to or infected with SARS-CoV-2 virus, the causative organism of COVID-19. Although the respiratory system appears to be the primary target of this virus infection, emerging evidences suggests involvement of extra-pulmonary organs including central nervous system. We aim to compare the genetic profile of individuals with vs without COVID-19 after being exposed to infected cases. Additionally, we will assess the cognitive function in covid-19 positive cases with vs. without neurological symptoms at the time of infection and 1-month follow-up using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) questionnaire.

The COVID-19 pandemic might be an opportunity to review and refine our practices in anti TB treatment. For the follow-up of selected patients, telephone consultations may be efficient and cost-effective. The aim of the study is to assess the efficiency and the satisfaction with telephone consultation for the pharmacist and the TB patient. The study was conducted in tertiary care hospital TB control centres patients.

As a result of COVID-19 and measures taken by the Canadian Government to reduce the transmission of the virus, in-person psychology services have been suspended. Psychology services are now being conducted via video conferencing. The purpose of the current project is to pilot-test a 6-week Self Compassion Treatment for Chronic Pain delivered virtually, in order to understand its utility in the current environment. The treatment is to be delivered through a secure professional ZOOM licence. Objective 1 of the project is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of attending the treatment group through virtual participation. Objective 2 is to assess the effectiveness of the group treatment in improving self-compassion, mental health, relationship with pain, and quality of life.

To date, nearly 2 million people, including at least 100,000 in France, have been infected with SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2). This infection is very heterogeneous in nature, ranging from asymptomatic forms to acute respiratory distress syndrome patterns in 6.1% of cases, leading to an estimated overall mortality of 5.2%. Apart from age, few risk factors for a pejorative evolution have been identified: arterial hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular history, obesity and chronic respiratory pathology in particular. The median incubation period is 5 days and the median time between the appearance of the first symptoms and the onset of hypoxia requiring admission to intensive care is 7 to 12 days. The mechanisms involved in the occurrence of these secondary worsening patterns are unclear. One hypothesis is that it is related to an inappropriate inflammatory response rather than a direct cytopathic effect of the virus. The objective of this study is to measure the intensity of the T lymphocyte response in patients hospitalized for Cov2 SARS infection in order to determine whether the intensity of the response is associated with worsening of symptoms.

The aim of this study is to measure current affective symptoms and psychological distress in individuals with severe mental illness during the COVID-19 pandemic using an online questionnaire survey. In addition, this study aims at identifying individual beliefs, sleep quality, attitudes concerning the virus, the adherence to the measures, believing processes, and coping strategies/resilience patterns referring to COVID-19 in different study centers.

This work was aimed to determine the time of COVID 19 viral clearance in healthcare workers, assessment of clinical presentation and severity of COVID 19 infection among healthcare workers and discover relation between the time of COVID 19 viral clearance resolution of symptoms

The leading cause of death in patients with COVID19 is a severe inflammatory response caused by a cytokine storm that results in acute respiratory distress syndrome and acute pulmonary insufficiency, as well as dysfunction of several vital organs. Therefore, preventing the occurrence of uncontrolled inflammation is the main goal of the ongoing clinical trials. Chloroquine and tocilizumab, which have the best results, are also prescribed to control inflammation. But it can be said that treatments are the main source of inflammation. Inflammasome NLRP3 is one of the mechanisms involved in many severe inflammatory disorders. Inflammatory activation has already been demonstrated by many viruses. Melatonin, on the other hand, is a hormone in the body that can inhibit Inflammation NLRP3 in addition to various anti-inflammatory effects, especially after severe inflammation. Older adults with lower levels of melatonin and children with maximum levels of melatonin are the risk groups and low-risk groups for the disease, respectively. In the present study, while measuring melatonin in patients with COVID19, its effectiveness as a treatment method along with the common antiviral drug regimen in patients with severe disease will be evaluated.
