There are about 11256 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.

Adequate bone volume and a proper aesthetic outcome have become the main focus of interest in implant dentistry. Alveolar bone resorption is a natural course occurring after tooth removal. Partial extraction therapy through root preservation has been reported to help in bone maintenance at the extraction site. In 2010, Hurzeler et al. evaluated a new approach, at that time, called socket shield technique. Han et al. in 2018 reported the modification of this technique and leaving the jump gap between the shield and the implant non-grafted. The importance of bone grafting of the gap between the implant and the labial shield in improving quality of regenerating bone and prevention of the soft tissue ingrowth has been described. Thus the hypothesis, of improving the modified socket shield technique by bone grafting could be tested. Aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of using xenogenic bone graft on outcome of immediate dental implant placement using the modified socket shield technique.
Hair appearance is an important issue for females. Treatment of hair with keratin has been popular among females nowadays. Although chemical hair straightening application has a beneficial effect on hair shafts with the repair of the broken cuticle, some side effects may occur. Therefore, this study aims to study the efficacy and safety of such new non-formaldehyde widely used keratin treatments on hair by assessment of changes of the scalp, hair density, and the morphology, color, and ultrastructure of hair shaft after application.
This prospective, comparative study is evaluating the effectiveness and adverse effects of using colistin at a loading dose of 9 million international units (MIU) followed by 4.5 MIU every 12 h (q12 h) + tigecycline at a loading dose of 100 mg followed by 50 mg every 12 h (q12 h) versus colistin + meropenem 2 g q8 h in treating blood stream infections due to multidrug-resistant (MDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae. The aims of the current study are to investigate and evaluate the therapeutic activity and side effects of Colistin-Meropenem combined therapy versus Colistin-Tigecycline combined therapy in treatment of patients with Multiple Drug Resistant (MDR)-Klebsiella pneumonia bacteraemia The primary goal is comparing 14 day mortality between critically ill patients with MDR Gram-negative Klebsiella pneumoniae infection as evaluation of the therapeutic activity of colistin - tigecycline vs. colistin - meropenem combined therapies. The secondary goal is comparing the comorbidities (nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, neurotoxicity, hematological changes) between critically ill patients with MDR Gram-negative Klebsiella pneumoniae infection who will be treated with colistin - tigecycline versus colistin - meropenem combined therapies. Method: A total of 60 patients were divided into two groups (30 patients each); the first group received Intravenous colistin 9 MIU IV infusion over 2 hours loading dose followed by maintenance dose 4.5 MIU IV infusion over 2 hours q12 h plus Intravenous Tigecycline 100 mg IV infusion over 1 hour loading dose followed by maintenance dose 50 mg IV infusion over 1 hour q12 and the second group received Intravenous colistin 9 MIU IV infusion over 2 hours loading dose followed by maintenance dose 4.5 MIU IV infusion over 2 hours q12 h plus Intravenous meropenem 2 g IV infusion over 30 minutes q8 h
PURPOSE: to determine the effect of aerobic exercise training on sex hormones and coagulation factors in postmenopausal elderly women BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the largest cause of death in women, and the risk of developing CVD increases after menopause . Because thrombosis is thought to be a cause of most acute cardiovascular events, abnormalities in endogenous coagulation and fibrinolysis may play an important role in the risk of an acute cardiovascular event. Aging is also associated with adverse changes in both coagulation and fibrinolysis. For instance, postmenopausal women exhibit higher fibrinogen levels and lower levels of endogenous fibrinolysis. Physical activity and physical fitness have consistently been linked to lower CVD rates in women. In fact, an inverse association between physical activity and total mortality, as well as a 50% reduction in risk of myocardial infarction, has been observed in physically active postmenopausal women. In addition to the numerous other benefits provided by regular physical activity, one of the mechanisms mediating the cardioprotective effect may be changes in the hemostatic system, particularly fibrinolysis HYPOTHESES: Aerobic exercises may have no effect on sex hormones and coagulation factors in elderly postmenopausal women RESEARCH QUESTION: Do aerobic exercises effect on sex hormones and coagulation factors in elderly postmenopausal women in response to exercises?
This study is designed to assess the difference between level of NT-pro-BNP, and Vitmin D in moderate cases who progressed to severe or critically ill category compared to those who did not. Assessment of any possible correlation between NT-pro-BNP and Vitamin D and the need for mechanical ventilation or mortality in COVID-19 infection.
- Thoracic incisions are painful and associated with chronic post-surgical pain and inadequate analgesia is associated with poorer postoperative outcomes. Recent progress has been made in the field of thoracic anesthesia by improving analgesic modalities such as PECS 1 and PECS 2, intercostal plane block, paravertebral regional anesthesia, ultrasound-guided erector spinae and serratus anterior plane block. - Administered of the local anesthetic in erector spinae plane block is in the interfascial plane between the transverse process of the vertebra and the erector spinae muscles, spreading to multiple paravertebral spaces. It affects both the ventral and dorsal rami and leading to blockage of both visceral and somatic pain. - Ultrasound-guided serratus anterior plane block is a facial plane block that provides analgesia by blocking of lateral branches of intercostal nerves above or below the serratus plane muscle. - We hypothesize that the ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block may have better quality than the serratus anterior plane block for patients undergoing thoracoscopic sympathectomy as erector spinea plane blocks visceral and somatic pain.

Several crosssectional and prospective studies have shown that metabolic syndrome and its related components are associated with both prevalent and incident CKD . Although the mechanisms for these cardiovascular benefits of Metformin and vildagliptin remain unclear, they extend well beyond glycemic lowering, and therefore are probably best considered diverse "cardiometabolic" pharmaceuticals rather than simply type 2 diabetes drugs. Metformin and vildagliptin have known vasculoprotective actions, but the value of these drugs on drug-naïve diabetic patients during 24 week use warrants investigation. The investigator's purpose was to observe their effects on weight control, Cardiometabolic Risk Factors, Metabolic Syndrome risk, and diabetic nephrooathy Progression.
