January 13, 2021 updated by: Yasmin Adel Abdelsalam Hussein, Mansoura University
Aim of the work Impact of serum vit D level in SLE patients with COVID-19 disease on severity of infection, duration of COVID-19 disease course, fatigue development as a complication for both SLE and COVID-19 and assess impact of prior chloroquine on COVID-19 disease outcomes Patients and methods 38 SLE patients previously diagnosed and on different lines of lupus management. Participants were presented to chest outpatient clinic and emergency hospital, Mansoura University with manifestation suggesting COVID-19 infection. Serum vit D was measured in serum by ELISA.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Primary objective: assess the impact of serum vit D level in SLE patients with COVID-19 disease on severity of infection and pandemic treatment outcome.

Secondary objectives:

  • Effect of serum vit D level in SLE patients on duration of COVID-19 disease course and fatigue development as a complication for both SLE and COVID-19
  • Impact of prior chloroquine on COVID-19 disease outcomes
  • Correlation of serum vit D level with different laboratory investigations at time of COVID-19 outbreak

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Level of serum vitamin D in SLE infected with COVID-19
Time Frame: 6 months
Measurement of serum vit D level (ng/ml)
6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Vitamin D level with COVID-19 severity
Time Frame: 6 months
Level of serum vitamin D (ng/ml) in mild, moderate and sever COVID-19
6 months

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Impact of serum vit D level in SLE patients on duration of COVID-19 disease course
Time Frame: 6 months
serum vit D level (ng/ml) in SLE patients and time to recovery (number of days) from COVID-19
6 months
Impact of prior chloroquine on COVID-19 disease outcomes
Time Frame: 6 months
Can prior chloroquine in SLE patients affect outcome of COVID-19 infection (recovery or die)
6 months
Serum vitamin D level and development of fatigue
Time Frame: 6 months
Basal vitamin d level (ng/ml) in SLE patients diagnosed with recent COVID-19 and development of fatigue after recovery from COVID-19 infection
