Capturing MultiORgan Effects of COVID-19

The C-MORE study is prospective observational holistic longitudinal study which will characterise the prevalence of multi-organ injury among COVID-19 survivors post hospital discharge and assess its effects on quality of life, exercise tolerance and mental health.

Pulsed RF Neuromodulation and Leukocyte-Rich PRP for Refractory Low Back Pain

This clinical trial aims to check the safety and efficacy profile of pulsed radiofrequency (RF) neuromodulation combined with leukocyte-rich platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections for the treatment of refractory low back pain due to multifidus dysfunction. The trial will compare two groups: one receiving standard physical therapy and the other receiving pulsed RF neuromodulation and physiotherapy.

Correlation Between Intra-abdominal Pressure, Biomarkers of Bacterial Translocation and Intestinal Wall Damage

Main scientific hypotheses of the project: 1\. The level of intestinal microflora translocation markers and biomarkers of intestinal wall damage the in the blood serum correlates with the level of intra-abdominal pressure, regardless of the genesis of intra-abdominal hypertension. 2\. The critical levels of intestinal microflora translocation markers and biomarkers of the intestinal wall damage can be used for predicting an unfavorable outcome in the multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. 3\. The revealed critical level of intra-abdominal pressure is an additional prognostic sign in assessing the course of the multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. . Project objectives: 1. To evaluate the indicators of biomarkers of translocation of the intestinal microflora and biomarkers of the intestinal wall damage in the systemic circulation during the development and course of the syndrome of multiple organ dysfunction. Based on the obtained critical levels of markers of translocation of the intestinal microflora and markers of the intestinal wall damage, it will be possible to predict adverse outcomes in patients with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. 2. To identify differences in the level of markers of bacterial translocation of the intestinal microflora and the level of markers of the intestinal wall damage in patients with intra-abdominal hypertension. In patients with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, the levels of biomarkers of bacterial translocation of the intestinal microflora and biomarkers of intestinal wall damage in the blood serum correlate with intra-abdominal pressure indicators, regardless of the etiology of intra-abdominal hypertension. 3. Assess the impact of the level of intra-abdominal pressure on the development and course of the syndrome of multiple organ dysfunction. To assess the course of the syndrome of multiple organ dysfunction, an additional prognostic marker is the determination of the critical level of intra-abdominal pressure. 4. Determine the critical levels of biomarkers of intestinal microflora translocation and biomarkers of intestinal wall damage to predict the outcome of diseases accompanied by the development of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. The obtained critical levels of biomarkers of translocation of the intestinal microflora and biomarkers of the intestinal wall damage will be significant indicators in the syndrome of multiple organ dysfunction for predicting an unfavorable outcome.
