About this study

Official title: Consecutive, Case Control Study of Association Between Single Nucleotide Polymorphism of SP-D and Susceptibility and Prognosis of Infectious Keratitis

This study explores the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (Met11Thr) of surfactant protein D(SP-D) and susceptibility and prognosis of infectious keratitis.Met11Thr of SP-D of patients with keratitis and normal controls were compared.Allele and genotype frequencies of patients with keratitis and normal controls were determined by polymerase chain reaction with sequence specific primers(PCR-SSPs) .SP-D gene polymorphism of patients with keratitis and normal controls was detected by Sanger sequencing

Read the detailed description

Surfactant protein D(SP-D) plays an important role in the innate immune system of the eye in the lacrimal duct, cornea and conjunctiva.The single lipopolysaccharide on the surface of bacteria and the receptors on the surface of immune cells are linked by SP-D ,which acts as a bridge to neutralize viruses in the innate immune defense system and assists other immune cells in clearing bacteria and fungi.SP-D can also participate in the acquired immune response after combining with lipopolysaccharide on the surface of microorganisms.Some single nucleotide polymorphisms of SP - D can not only affect the plasma level of SP - D, which leads to the differences of pathogen defense capability, but also can affect the space configuration and structure of carbohydrate recognition domain of SP-D, causing the change of ability of SP - D combined with pathogens to influence its defensive role.The concentration of SP - D in ocular surface is closely related to the occurrence and progression of infectious keratitis.Association between single nucleotide polymorphisms of SP-D and the occurrence and development of infectious keratitis has yet to be confirmed by research.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Infectious Keratitis, run by Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

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 2 inclusion and 3 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 7 Jan 2020. 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 China. 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?

Base type (time frame: before the treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 7 Jan 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
