Relapse rate in children with nephrotic syndrome during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic Vrije Universiteit Brussel
BACKGROUND: Viral upper respiratory tract infections trigger nephrotic syndrome relapses. Few data exist on the impact of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on the risk of relapse in children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS).
METHODS: In a Belgian and Italian cohort of children with INS, we performed a retrospective analysis on the number and duration of relapses observed in 3 different periods in 2020: first COVID period, February ...
Leishmania antigenuria to predict initial treatment failure and relapse in visceral leishmaniasis/HIV coinfected patients: an exploratory study nested within a clinical trial in Ethiopia Institute of Tropical Medicine
Background: Biomarkers predicting the risk of VL treatment failure and relapse in VL/HIV coinfected patients are needed. Nested within a two-site clinical trial in Ethiopia (2011-2015), we conducted an exploratory study to assess whether (1) levels of Leishmania antigenuria measured at VL diagnosis were associated with initial treatment failure and (2) levels of Leishmania antigenuria at the end of treatment (parasitologically-confirmed cure) ...
Visceral leishmaniasis IgG1 rapid monitoring of cure vs. relapse, and potential for diagnosis of post kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis Institute of Tropical Medicine Vrije Universiteit Brussel University of Antwerp
Background: There is a recognized need for an improved diagnostic test to assess post-chemotherapeutic treatment outcome in visceral leishmaniasis (VL) and to diagnose post kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL). We previously demonstrated by ELISA and a prototype novel rapid diagnostic test (RDT), that high anti-Leishmania IgG1 is associated with post-treatment relapse versus cure in VL.
Methodology: Here, we further evaluate this ...
