About this study

Generating a picture at the city level, through geospatial and temporal grouping a lung diseases associated or exacerbated by pollution (COPD, AB and neoplasm pulmonary or pleural) and correlating this data with pollution data.

Development of an accurate and prognostic HRCT imaging diagnostic tool, computer assisted in the mentioned pathology, by generating an algorithm capable of to detect early the follow-up tomographic imaging lesions, as well as to evaluate objective their speed of evolution.

Validation of the proposed algorithm by comparison with medical diagnosis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation between lung diseases and pollution

    Establishing the relationship between the incidence and exacerbation of lung diseases (COPD, acute bronchitis, and pulmonary or pleural neoplasms) and pollution levels through geospatial and temporal analysis at the city /county level

    Measured: December 2023 - December 2024

  2. Development of a diagnostic algorithm

    Creating an accurate, computer-assisted HRCT imaging diagnostic tool designed to detect early tomographic lesions and evaluate the progression speed of these lesions in patients with the mentioned pathologies.

    Measured: September 2024 - March 2024

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COPD Asthma and Lung Neoplasm, run by University of Medicine and Pharmacy "Victor Babes" Timisoara at 1 site in Romania.

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 7 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jul 2024. 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 Romania. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Correlation between lung diseases and pollution (time frame: December 2023 - December 2024). 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 22 Jul 2024.
