Epidemiological Study of the Microbiota in Critically Ill Children (n=100) From 1 to 16 Years Compared With Healthy Controls (n=50) and Its Relationship With Clinical Complications and Inflammatory Biomarkers
Objectives: To study the composition of the microbiota in critically ill children, and to know the relationship of its microbiota with clinical complications and inflammation biomarkers. Design: Multicenter observational and prospective study including 100 critically ill children admitted in three pediatric intensive care units with a prediction of more than …
ACE and HLA Genotypes Predict Severity and Disease Progression in Danish Sarcoid Patients
Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disease of unknown cause histologically characterized by noncaseating granulomas. Genetic factors affect disease course, which is highly variable and difficult to predict. This study aims to evaluate the predictive value of ACE and HLA genotypes on disease severity and progression in Danish patients with sarcoidosis.
Early Diagnosis of Upper Digestive Tract Disease

Mechanisms of Hypoglycemia in Patients Without Diabetes
The goal of this study is to identify physiologic and molecular mechanisms that underlie hypoglycemia in the absence of diabetes (or medications that can cause hypoglycemia) and to investigate potential genetic and microbiome differences which contribute to hypoglycemia. We will test the hypothesis that hypoglycemia in the absence of diabetes …
Wearable Sensor to Monitor COVID-19 Like Signs and Symptoms
Develop a wearable sensor package to gather data on COVID-19-like signs and symptoms such as elevated body temperature, respiratory parameters, heart rate ,cough and gait. Create algorithms to monitor and track changes to COVID19-like signs and symptoms for developing a better care and isolation strategies for COVID-19 pandemic.
