Clinical trials

This pragmatic randomized controlled trial evaluates whether Fuyang Jiedu Granules combined with antiretroviral therapy (ART) improves immune reconstitution in people with HIV who meet criteria for immune reconstitution failure and spleen-kidney yang deficiency syndrome. Eligible participants are adults aged 18 to 60 years with HIV-1 infection, long-term viral suppression on ART, and persistently low CD4+ T-cell counts. A total of 240 participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive Fuyang Jiedu Granules plus ART or ART alone. Treatment lasts 48 weeks, followed by 48 weeks of follow-up. The primary outcomes are absolute CD4+ T-cell count and immune reconstitution response rate. Secondary outcomes include immune homeostasis markers, T-cell activation and Treg proportion, thymic output and inflammation-related markers, HIV RNA viral load, quality of life, clinical symptom scores, all-cause mortality, and safety.

Eligible participants are adults aged 18 to 60 years with HIV-1 infection, long-term viral suppression on ART, and persistently low CD4+ T-cell counts. A total of 240 participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive Qiling Yiqi Tablets plus ART or ART alone. Treatment lasts 48 weeks, followed by 48 weeks of follow-up. The primary outcomes are absolute CD4+ T-cell count and immune reconstitution response rate.

The goal of this observational study is to see whether a new, noninvasive test that analyzes smells (odor) from breath and intestinal gas can help detect colorectal cancer and precancerous growths at an early stage. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can the new odor-based test correctly identify people who have colorectal cancer or precancerous lesions? How accurate is the new test compared to the current standard method (colonoscopy with biopsy)? Researchers will compare the results of the new test with standard diagnostic results. Participants will be asked to: Provide samples of breath, urine, stool, and intestinal gas (collected using a special device or a collection bag) Allow researchers to review their medical records and colonoscopy results Answer questions about their health history and lifestyle This study involves no treatments or procedures beyond normal medical care. It only collects samples and data for research purposes.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Shengmai liquid works to treat Long Covid fatigue. It will also learn about the safety of Shengmai liquid. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Dose the Shengmai liquid will reduce the level of fatigue in the participants and reduce the fatigue scale score of the participants? * Dose the Shengmai liquid will reduce the level of anxiety and depression in the participants and improve the sleep quality and quality of life of the participants Researchers will compare Shengmai oral liquid to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if Shengmai liquid works to treat Long Covid fatigue. Participants will: * Take Shengmai liquid or a placebo every day for 8 weeks. * Visit the clinic once every 4 weeks for check up and test. There are a total of two telephone follow-ups, one follow-up 15 days after the treatment starts and another follow-up 30 days after the treatment ends. * Participants' medication responses and scale scores will be recorded.

Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is acknowledged as the precancerous stage of gastric cancer (GC). The present study aims to developed risk assessment and syndrome evolution models of CAG malignant transformation events combining TCM indicators with modern medicine indicators. The proposed study is a registry study based participant survey conducted in 4 hospitals in Beijing, China. After obtaining informed consent, a total of 2000 study patients diagnosed with CAG will be recruited. 10-year follow-ups are carried out on-site in hospitals and off-site by telephone to track malignant transformation events.
