NCT02482519
Marrow adipocytes have been identified as a component of the bone marrow micro-environment. Evidence exists suggesting that marrow fat plays an important physiologic role in both bone mineral and energy metabolism in humans. The investigators will study the effects of acute weight gain and acute nutritional deprivation on energy homeostasis and bone mineral metabolism by examining marrow adiposity, peripheral fat depots and bone microarchitecture. The study will include two ten day inpatient study visits. Participants will eat a high calorie diet for 10 days, followed by a 13-18 day stabilization period at home, and then return for a ten day fast.
NCT04570397
Ultomiris (Ravulizumab), is a monoclonal antibody that specifically targets terminal complement products and is proposed for the treatment of COVID-19 induced microvasculature injury and endothelial damage leading to thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) causing acute kidney injury (AKI). Ravulizumab is to be used for participants with a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 who clinically or diagnostically present with deteriorating renal function. Ravulizumab causes immediate and sustained inhibition of the terminal complement cascade. The use of ravulizumab could ameliorate COVID-19 induced kidney injury due to TMA, shorten hospital stay, and improve the overall survival.
