This review describes targeting neutrophils as a potential therapeutic strategy for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Neutrophil counts are significantly elevated in patients with COVID-19 and significantly correlated with disease severity. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio can serve as a clinical marker for predicting fatal complications related to ARDS in patients with COVID-19. Neutrophil-associated inflammation plays a critical pathogenic role in ARDS. The effector functions of neutrophils, acting as respiratory burst oxidants, granule proteases, and neutrophil extracellular traps, are linked to the pathogenesis of ARDS. Hence, neutrophils can not only be used as pathogenic markers but also as candidate drug targets for COVID-19 associated ARDS.

Registry and results database of federally and privately supported clinical trials conducted in United States and around world. Provides information about purpose of trial, who may participate, locations, and phone numbers for more details. This information should be used in conjunction with advice from health care professionals.Offers information for locating federally and privately supported clinical trials for wide range of diseases and conditions. Research study in human volunteers to answer specific health questions. Interventional trials determine whether experimental treatments or new ways of using known therapies are safe and effective under controlled environments. Observational trials address health issues in large groups of people or populations in natural settings. ClinicalTrials.gov contains trials sponsored by National Institutes of Health, other federal agencies, and private industry. Studies listed in database are conducted in all 50 States and in 178 countries.
View all literature mentionsDatabase of European clinical trials containing information on interventional clinical trials on medicines. The information available dates from 1 May 2004 when national medicine regulatory authorities began populating the EudraCT database, the application that is used by national medicine regulatory authorities to enter clinical trial data. The EU Clinical Trials Register website launched on 22 March 2011 enables users to search for information which has been included in the EudraCT database. Users are able to: * view the description of a phase II-IV adult clinical trial where the investigator sites are in European Union member states and the European Economic Area; * view the description of any pediatric clinical trial with investigator sites in the European Union and any trials which form part of a pediatric investigation plan (PIP) including those where the investigator sites are outside the European Union. * download up to 20 results (per request) in a text file (.txt). The details in the clinical trial description include: * the design of the trial; * the sponsor; * the investigational medicine (trade name or active substance identification); * the therapeutic areas; * the status (authorized, ongoing, complete).
