About this study

Official title: The Development of Fast and Simple Method of Fructose Identification in Urine to Detect the Viral Infection in Early Stage

The goal of this research is the attempt to implement a new research method based on modern electrochemistry successes, in particular the development of the polarographic method of fructose and fructose diphosphate identification and its implementation to detect the viral infection in early stage. There will be 20 samples from the HIV-infected patients and 30 samples from the heath controls. The study will collect 10ml urine and examined fructose and fructose-diphosphate using the polarographic method.

What is being measured

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

  1. Fructose Identification in Urine to Detect the Viral Infection : Number of Participants With Positive and Negative Waveform

    This detection technique, after a viral infection caused by the use of cell pathological changes and urine metabolic waste - fructose concentration, derivatives.Health News voltage changes to detect viral pathogens of activity and virulence. Because viral infection caused by the voltage change has its typical, So you can use voltage measurements to calibrate the presence and activity of a viral infection.

    1.How to interpretation the data The gap between values on X-axis is σ, and 50 is a reference to the center position. For example, the sample maybe contain with HIV virus if σ≧10 units.

    σ≧10 abnormal positive (+) σ<10 normal negative (-)

    Measured: Participants provided urine samples once

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Human Immunodeficiency Virus, run by Kaohsiung Medical University Chung-Ho Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 1 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 5 Oct 2015. 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 Taiwan. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Oct 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Fructose Identification in Urine to Detect the Viral Infection : Number of Participants With Positive and Negative Waveform (time frame: Participants provided urine samples once). 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 5 Oct 2015.
