What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Predictive properties of immune parameters (IL6, IL10, mHLA-DR) for functional outcome one year after symptom onset

    To evaluate of the predictive properties of immune parameters (IL6, IL10, mHLA-DR) for functional outcome one year after symptom onset

    Measured: one year after symptom onset

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. To evaluate of the predictive properties of clinical scores for functional outcome one year after symptom onset

    To evaluate of the predictive properties of clinical scores for functional outcome one year after symptom onset

    Measured: one year after symptom onset

  2. To evaluate of the predictive properties of electrophysiological measurements one year after symptom onset

    To evaluate of the predictive properties of electrophysiological measurements one year after symptom onset

    Measured: one year after symptom onset

  3. To evaluate of the predictive properties of conventional (DTI) and functional imaging (resting state) one year after symptom onset

    To evaluate of the predictive properties of conventional (DTI) and functional imaging (resting state) one year after symptom onset

    Measured: one year after symptom onset

  4. Transcriptome analyses

    To perform transcriptome analyses to identify new biomarkers which may predict the one year- neurological outcome

    Measured: one year after symptom onset

  5. Predictive properties of immune parameters in the cerebrovascular fluid for functional outcome one year after symptom onset

    To evaluate of the predictive properties of immune parameters in the cerebrovascular fluid for functional outcome one year after symptom onset

    Measured: one year after symptom onset

  6. Quality of life and occurence of depression in patients one year after symptom onset

    To investigate the quality of life and the occurence of depression in patients one year after symptom onset

    Measured: one year after symptom onset

  7. Quality of life and the occurence of depression and burnout syndrome in relatives

    To investigate the quality of life and the occurence of depression and burnout syndrome in relatives of patients treated on the neurological intensive care unit one year after symptom onset

    Measured: one year after symptom onset

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neurological Diseases, run by Charite University, Berlin, Germany at 1 site in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Predictive properties of immune parameters (IL6, IL10, mHLA-DR) for functional outcome one year after symptom onset (time frame: one year after symptom onset). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Nov 2018.
