Selected Drugs
Ivermectin has anti-parasitic effect along with anti-viral activity against a broad range of viruses in vitro. Ivermectin was identified as an inhibitor of interaction between the human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) integrase protein (IN) and the importin (IMP) α/β1 heterodimer
Selected Drugs
Hydroxychloroquine (an analog of chloroquine) has been demonstrated to have an anti-SARS-CoV activity in vitro. Hydroxychloroquine clinical safety profile is better than that of chloroquine (during long-term use) and allows higher daily dose and has fewer concerns about drug-drug

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To understand effects of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on the course of polycythemia vera/essential thrombocythemia (PV/ET).
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. To estimate prevalence of OSA in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms.
Hypothesis FeNO can be used as screening tool for concurrent OSA and asthma in severe snorers.
Design The study is a prospective, observational multicenter trial. Patients are recruited from three different private specialist ENT-clinics where they will be offered inclusion according to guidelines.
Hypothesis Exhaled nitrogen oxide (FeNO) is elevated in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis and nasal polyps (CRSwNP). FeNO can be used as screening for concurrent asthma and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Design The study is a prospective, observational multicenter trial. Patients are recruited
