This is a Phase 2, , randomized (1:1:1), placebo-controlled, 2-weeks, proof-of-concept study to evaluate the safety and tolerability as well as the mechanistic effect of oral administration of potent inhibitor of neutrophil elastase(Inhaled All trans retinoic acid and inhaled isotretinoin in
BACKGROUND
Since the first case of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome - Coronavirus - 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and its subsequent clinical manifestation (COronaVIrus Disease 19, COVID-19) in the city of Wuhan (Hubei, China) in December 2019, contagion abruptly spread to different regions of China
In a prospective, randomized clinical trial of de novo mandibular fracture patients requiring intraoral surgical repair with plating, the investigators will:
1. Compare the effects of supplemental vitamin C to placebo on soft tissue wound healing, measured by a) biomarkers of soft tissue repair
Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's; GPA) is an antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV), which also includes microscopic polyangiitis and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Churg-Strauss syndrome). GPA is characterized by granulomatous inflammation
Immediate dental implant placement was introduced more than 30 years ago by Schulte and Heimke in 1976.
The major advantages of immediate implant placement are reduction in number of visits, thus reduces the treatment time and improves patient satisfaction, provides ideal three dimensional implant
Periodontal disease is one of the most common diseases in humans and is responsible for most of the tooth loss in adults. World health Organisation report of 2005 described that the global problem persisted with the worldwide oral diseases such as dental caries, periodontal disease, tooth loss, oral
The rate of cartilage and joint damage in RA is correlated with plasma elevations in inflammatory acute phase reactants, such as C- reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate, rheumatoid factor positivity and the synovial concentrations of matrix metalloproteinases(MMP), a matrix digesting
GLASSIA (human alpha-1 proteinase inhibitor (A1PI), also known as human alpha-1 antitrypsin, Kamada-AAT or Kamada-API) is a, liquid, ready-to-use preparation of human A1PI. Alpha-1 proteinase inhibitor belongs to the family of serine proteinase inhibitors and is primarily produced in the liver and
The altered balance between the proteinases and their tissue inhibitors (TIMPS) is one of the pathogenetical mechanism of the aneurysmal connective tissue degeneration. The increase of protease, collagenase and elastase activity results indeed in a dramatic drop of collagen and elastin tissue and
Scleral contact lenses are rigid gas permeable lenses designed to rest on the sclera while vaulting over the cornea with a fluid reservoir. The use of scleral contact lenses has become the current standard of practice as a nonsurgical management of corneal ectasia and ocular surface diseases. Cases
Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA) vasculitis is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by small vessel inflammation caused by pathogenic autoantibodies directed against proteinase 3 (PR3) or myeloperoxidase (MPO). Immunosuppressive therapy can result in remission; however, many
There is clinical rationale to advocate the use of AAT(GLASSIA) therapy during episodes of lung inflammation, including acute and chronic rejection. AAT may provide more specifically targeted prevention of pathogenic inflammation, superior to that of general immunosuppressants, with little risk. AAT
Periodontal disease progression might play a significant role in the severity and outcome of systemic diseases like rheumatoid arthritis. Pentraxin3 is a newly discovered inflammatory biomarker. It is a member of acute phase proteins and it has been observed from previous studies that plasma
Background
1. Chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease CKD is a major but poorly recognised and under-treated risk factor for cardiovascular disease. It can be categorised in to 5 stages according to GFR and the presence of markers of kidney damage. Stage 3 CKD, the subject of this
