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.
Placenta previa (PP) is an obstetric condition that is closely linked with massive obstetric hemorrhage with a varied incidence about once in every 200 live births. It is considered one of the causes of the increased need for blood transfusion and cesarean hysterectomy. PPH due to PP typically starts during cesarean section (CS) in the placental bed, at the lower uterine segment mostly after placental separation. Proceeding for cesarean hysterectomy can be the only effective line of management in spite of the associated high morbidity rate. Various conservative measures have been developed to avoid hysterectomy and preserve fertility in patients with PP. Bilateral Uterine artery ligation (BUAL) is one of the reported surgical procedures carried out in these cases as it is easy and quick. It can be used alone or with adjunctive measures with a fair success rate. The aim is to reduce the blood supply to the uterus and to prevent postpartum hemorrhage. Tranexamic acid is a lysine analog which acts as an antifibrinolytic via competitive inhibition of the binding of plasmin and plasminogen to fibrin. The rationale for its use in the reduction of blood loss depending on the implication of the coagulation and fibrinolysis processes implicated in the control of PPH. However, concerns about possible thromboembolic events with parenteral administration of TA have stimulated increasing interest in its topical use.
Skull pins are used to immobilize the head during craniotomy. Fixation of skull pins causes acute hemodynamic changes which may affect cerebral autoregulation and hence cerebral blood flow. Therefore, maintenance of stable hemodynamic parameters during skull pin placement under general anesthesia is crucial to ensure adequate cerebral perfusion and prevention of acute rise of intracranial pressure
International Diabetes Federation estimates that there are now 415 million adults aged 20-79 with diabetes mellitus worldwide. By 2040 this will rise to 640 million. Although diabetes mellitus is highly prevalent in our environment and one of the most important challenges of modern medicine, only a handful of studies have examined the neuromuscular function in diabetic patients. The shortage of publications in this area is still more surprising if we consider that the neuromuscular blockers are one of the pillars in the administration of general anesthesia. Neuromuscular blockers during surgery are used in tracheal intubation and to improve surgical conditions.
The most common cause of acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) is non-variceal, where peptic ulcer bleeding (PUB) remains the single most common cause, accounting for 25% to 67% of the causes of non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (NVUGIB). Despite major advances in diagnostic and therapeutic tools, PUB remains a significant problem and an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Given the imperative therapeutic role of endoscopic management in achieving hemostasis in NVUGIB, new modalities to improve the current treatment strategies continue to be developed. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a widely used throughout many fields of medicine for improving tissue regeneration. PRP contains a higher concentration of platelets than whole blood, and represents a pool of many growth-factors.
- Different parameters are used to estimate gestational age AC, HC , BPD and FL
Objectives: Aim of the study The objective is to conduct an RCT to evaluate the effectiveness of miswak in comparison with standard caries preventive measures for the prevention of new carious lesions in high caries risk patients. -Research hypothesis (alternative hypothesis): This study will be designed to test the alternative hypothesis that using miswak in addition to standard preventive measures will show significant difference over using standard preventive measures alone in preventing incidence of new carious lesions in high caries risk patients.
Placenta grows with advancing gestational age amonitoring of placental growth is important in pregnancy evaluation
- Lung maturity is one of the most important factors in perinatal medicine
ICSI has increased nowadays for treating cases of longstanding infertility . HbA1c has an important value in evaluating glucose level in blood
Prophylaxis with low-dose aspirin has been recommended to prevent preeclampsia, the rationale being that hypertension and abnormalities of coagulation in this disease are caused in part by an imbalance between vasodilating and vasoconstricting prostaglandins. Low-dose aspirin therapy inhibits thromboxane production more than prostacyclin production and therefore should protect against vasoconstriction and pathologic blood coagulation in the placenta. Initially, several single-center trials, mostly among women at increased risk for preeclampsia, demonstrated a substantial reduction in the risk of proteinuric hypertension as well as reductions in the incidences of preterm birth, infants small for gestational age, and perinatal death,
