Critical Care and Acute Respiratory Medicine

Research activity includes ventilator-associated tracheobronchitis, hypoxemic acute respiratory failure, de novo acute respiratory failure, and weaning from high-flow nasal oxygen therapy. The sponsor also studies pneumocystis pneumonia and airway management in intensive care.

  • Intensive care sedation
  • Oxygenation strategies
  • Mechanical ventilation
  • Pulmonary infection

These trials reflect a strong focus on respiratory support, infection control, and complications arising in critical care settings.

Neurology, Stroke, and Psychiatry

The sponsor funds studies in acute ischaemic stroke due to basilar artery occlusion, attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity, resistant depression, suicidal ideation, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Work also extends to neurocognitive disorders with depressive symptoms.

  • Posterior circulation stroke
  • Depressive disorders
  • Suicide prevention
  • Neurodevelopmental disorders

Clinical interest spans emergency neurological care, psychiatric symptom control, and mental health conditions in both younger and older populations.

Nephrology, Urology, and Transplantation

Trials address chronic haemodialysis, chronic kidney disease, kidney transplant, kidney stones, benign prostate hyperplasia, and uncontrolled hypertension in renal disease. The portfolio also includes infection management in dialysis patients and renal function assessment.

  • Dialysis-associated infection
  • Renal transplantation
  • Urological surgery
  • Hypertension in kidney disease

This area combines kidney replacement therapy, renal pharmacology, and perioperative urologic care.

Cardiovascular, Vascular, and Hepatic Disease

Research covers stable coronary artery disease, superficial venous thrombosis, recurrent erysipelas, superficial venous malformations, and cirrhosis. The sponsor also studies inflammatory markers after influenza vaccination in cardiac patients.

  • Coronary artery disease
  • Venous malformations
  • Liver cirrhosis
  • Recurrent soft tissue infection

These studies link vascular inflammation, thrombosis, chronic liver disease, and cardiovascular risk management.

Infectious Disease, Inflammation, and Perioperative Care

The research landscape also includes COVID-19 vaccination, Pneumocystis pneumonia, ventilator-associated infection, and perioperative issues in arthroplasty, labor induction, and postoperative analgesia. Additional studies examine systemic sclerosis-related interstitial lung disease and lingual microcystic lymphatic malformations.

  • Vaccination and immune response
  • Postoperative pain control
  • Connective tissue lung disease
  • Congenital lymphatic malformations

Therapeutic interests extend across infection prevention, inflammatory lung disease, surgical recovery, and rare structural disorders.
