There are about 11068 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Egypt. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the surgical and functional outcomes of pure transanal endorectal pull-through (TAERPT) and laparoscopic-assistance endorectal pull-through (LAERPT) in pediatric patients presented with Hirschsprung's Disease between 3 months and 18 years old. The main questions our study aims to answer are: - Does post-operative continence differs between the two groups? - Does post-operative constipation differs between the two groups? - Does post-operative soiling differs between the two groups - Does post-operative enterocolitis differs between the two groups? - Do post-operative complications differ between the two groups? If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare between pure transanal endorectal pull-through (TAERPT) and laparoscopic-assistance endorectal pull-through (LAERPT) to see if there is a difference in post-operative continence, constipation, soiling, enterocolitis or complications. Participants will be divided into two groups; 40 patients will be treated by TAERPT and included in Group A and 30 patients will be treated by LAERPT and included in Group B.
This study will evaluate and compare the microbial efficacy of rotary and manual filing system using Neem extract, NaOCL and saline . with hypotheses that neem can used alternative to sodium hypochlorite and there is no difference between rotary and manual filling in bacterial reduction.
The goal of this Randomized controlled trial is to assessment Efficacy of Vonoprazan versus Proton Pump Inhibitors in Combination with Antibiotics as a triple Therapy for Eradication of Clarithromycin Resistant Strain of Helicobacter Pylori (H. pylori). This randomized controlled study was performed on 2 groups of Egyptian patients diagnosed with dyspepsia; group (1) included 160 patients received Vonoprazan 20 mg oral once daily + Levofloxacin 500 mg oral once daily + Amoxicillin 1 gm oral twice daily for 14 days and group (2) included 160 patients received Pantoprazole 40 mg oral twice daily + Levofloxacin 500 mg oral once daily + Amoxicillin 1 gm oral twice daily for 14 days. All patients of the two groups were followed up for persistence of infection 8 weeks after the end of treatment by testing fecal H. pylori antigen (Ag).
Objective: To study the effect of tubularizing the urethral plate in DPH in children using 2 different absorbable suture materials, rapidly absorbable, braided 6/0 Vicryl and slowly absorbable monofilament 6/0 Polydioxanone, on complication rates. Patients and methods: A prospective, randomized controlled study conducted at the Urology Department, Cairo University Specialized Pediatric Hospital, Abou El Reesh, between September 2021 and September 2022. A total of 69 boys aged between 8 and 120 months with DPH were randomly divided into 2 groups: group(A) Vicryl included 39 boys and group(B) PDS included 30 boys. All boys were uncircumcised with no chordee and were primary repairs. TIP was the surgical technique used by a single pediatric urologist. Follow up was performed in outpatient clinic at 7 days, 1, 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively. The complications and reoperation rates for both groups were compared.
Aim: to compare different treatment modalities for radiation induced trismus for maxillofacial patients methods:45 participants (20 females and 25 males) with trismus and pain following head and neck cancer and underwent radiation therapy were enrolled in this study . patients were divided into three groups : group1 received threaded tapered screw appliance therapy, patients in group II received low-level laser therapy and patients in group III received low-level laser therapy in addition to threaded tapered screw appliance therapy.
The goal of the current study was to evaluate whether SMOF lipid administration could be used as an adjuvant therapy to treat acute, moderate-to-severe clozapine poisoning.
The incidence of fungal infection has increased dramatically over the past few decades.This is due to increase in survival rates of preterm neonates, advances in medical technology and drug therapy, broad spectrum antibiotics and parenteral nutrition . The resistance to antifungal agents has increased. This study will assess the efficacy of micafungin versus amphotericin B in neonates with positive fungal culture.
Purpose: To compare the overall accuracy and fit of different components for mandibular metallic removable partial denture (RPD) frameworks fabricated by selective laser melting using combined analog-digital, and fully digital impression techniques. Material and methods. Two RPD frameworks were fabricated for each of the 18 participants using each of the 2 techniques of the 18 participants enrolled, were of mandibular Kennedy class I, the first technique was the combined analog-digital workflow had the analog steps include: a physical impression was made using polyvinyl siloxane, stone casts were made, then the stone cast was scanned with a laboratory scanner to generate a digital cast. The 3Shape CAD software was then used to design a digital RPD, which was fabricated from a cobalt-chroumum alloy by selective laser melting. The second technique was fully digital where an intraoral digital scanner was used to make a definitive scan, which was sent to the 3Shape software for digitally designing the RPD framework and subsequent selective laser melting for fabrication. For both frameworks in the same participant, the same design was used for consistency. To assess the accuracy of fit, based on STL data analysis (intra-oral digital superimposition evaluation), a color map was constructed using non metrology software, and overall fit accuracy and the misfit (distance between each framework component and the reference intra-oral scan) were measured at rest, guiding plane and lingual plate areas.
Tracheal intubation is usually facilitated by the administration of anesthetic drugs including a muscle relaxant. Over the past few years, several factors have led researchers to consider omitting neuromuscular blocking agents for tracheal intubation. (1, 2) Despite the frequent use of NMBAs in clinical practice, side effects associated with NMBA use can be particularly concerning such as anaphylaxis, cardiovascular effects related to histamine release or sympathomimetic properties, Bronchospasm, and prolonged paralysis. (3) Therefore, many studies (4, 5) focused on the possibility of performing tracheal intubation without the use of neuromuscular blocking agents. The challenge was to find the correct choice and dose of induction agent, opioid, or adjuvant drug to produce adequate intubating conditions without cardiovascular side effects. Dexmedetomidine is a potent and highly selective alpha-2 receptor agonist with sympatholytic, sedative, amnestic, and analgesic properties. It inhibits sympathetic activity thus terminating the pain signals and thereby blunts the pressor response associated with laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation.
The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of propofol and dexmedetomidine during ERCP regarding hemodynamic, respiratory, sedative and cognitive functions.
