What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study creates a global registry to collect information from 200 people with leptospirosis, a bacterial infection caught from animals or contaminated water. Researchers will track how the disease spreads, what treatments work, and why some patients get very sick. No new treatments are tested; the goal is to better understand the disease to improve future care.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Retrospective data collection from patients with cultural, serological, molecular or histological evidence of Leptospirosis spp. infection and clinical evidence of invasive leptospirosis disease (acute kidney injury, pulmonary manifestation with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), myocarditis with arrhythmia, hepatic dysfunction, hemorrhage, multi-organ failure). Particularly, controls will be included at the same hospitals that conduced cases based on matching of demographics, underlying diseases and duration of hospitalization (i.e. one control per case, both in the same hospital).

Ages

Children (under 18), adults (18 to 64) and older adults (65 and over)

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Cultural, serological, molecular or histological evidence of invasive leptospirosis diseases * Clinical signs of disseminated leptospirosis disease without cultural, serological, molecular or histological evidence * Case controls: Matching procedures for controls: Particularly, case controls will be included at the same hospitals that conduced cases based on matching of demographics, underlying diseases and duration of hospitalization (i.e. one control per case, both in the same hospital). Exclusion Criteria: * Colonization or other non-invasive infection * Cultural, serological, molecular or histological evidence without dissemination
