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 aim of this study was to evaluate the role of sclerotherapy (injection of tetracycline or injection of Polidocanol - 95% hydroxypolyethoxydodecane and 5% ethanol -) in treatment of non-neoplastic ovarian cysts by, percutaneous trans-abdominal approach or trans-vaginal approach.
The primary purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of deep breathing pattern on dynamic balance in patients with chronic mechanical low back pain versus healthy controls. Secondary to compare between dynamic balance control during deep versus regular breathing patterns in patients with chronic mechanical low back pain and healthy controls. Further, to detect whether pain intensity differs during balance testing applying either deep or regular breathing in patients with chronic mechanical low back pain.
Introduction: the complete denture wearers mainly complain of decrease of denture retention which affects on patient's quality of life Objective: to evaluate oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of denture adhesive for completely edentulous denture wearers. Material and methods : 32 patients(new denture wearers) were selected form prosthdontic clinic in three dental faculties in various region in Egypt, there were 22 females (68%) and 10 males (46%) were distributed in two groups: conventional group without adhesive and adhesive group with adhesive application n = 16;, in a cross over study. evaluation by Oral Health Impact Profile in Edentulous Adults (OHIP-EDENT) inventory at 1, 2 and 3 months after the insertion of new complete dentures. Data were analyzed using 2-way ANOVA test and Generalized Estimating Equations (GEEs), α = 0.05.
The investigators hypothesize that US Bilateral Erector Spinae Plane Block, US Bilateral Quadratus Lumborum Block and Lumbar Epidural for Postoperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Total Abdominal Hysterectomy resulting in reducing myofascial pain and opioid consumption.
Diaphragmatic dysfunction can be detected as a decrease in forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume at 1 s (FEV1) on spirometry or as lower diaphragmatic excursion (DE) on US, the latter having become the gold standard in thoracic assessment.
The Artisan lens (Artisan Aphakic, Ophtec BV) is an iris- claw lens designed for implantation in children with insufficient capsular support. In spite of less surgical manipulations and a relatively shorter operation time, the procedure carries the risk of corneal endothelial cell loss or dis-enclavation, particularly in children. However, most of the studies that studied iris-claw lenses in aphakic children were retrospective evaluated only a single technique; either anterior or retropupillary fixation, or comparable to other techniques of fixation. Thus the aim of this work is to prospectively compare the 2 techniques of iris-claw lens implantation and their effects on central endothelial cell density, the anatomical and visual outcome, as well as the complications' rate.
Azoospermia, the absence of sperm in the ejaculate, affects approximately 1% of males and 15% of infertile men. Non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) accounts for 60% of azoospermic patients, who rely solely on testicular sperm extraction (TESE) surgery for sperm harvesting. While conventional TESE (cTESE) and microdissection TESE (mTESE) are preferred methods, the lack of predictive biomarkers for successful sperm retrieval (SR) renders treatment unnecessary for many NOA males. However, research suggests that anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) and anogenital distance (AGD) may serve as predictors of positive SR at mTESE in NOA males. AGD, a marker of fetal androgen disruption and adult outcomes, may also assess male reproductive potential by predicting normal genital growth and sperm creation. A cross-sectional study found a positive correlation between AGD and total sperm count, concentration, and motility in infertile men aged 25-38, providing valuable prognostic insights for azoospermic men.
rotator cuff tears are one of the most common shoulder issues , affecting 20.7% of the general population .
Arthroscopic surgery is the preferred method to fix a Bankart lesion (tears in the labrum) and has better patient outcomes. It's important to assess any bone loss in the shoulder socket before surgery for a successful outcome. Using suture anchors to reattach the torn tissue is advantageous because it avoids going through the back of the shoulder. The article describes a specific technique for tying the sutures and anchor placement to minimize nerve and artery damage. Design of the suture anchor and how the suture is placed can affect its strength. Using two sutures per anchor (double-loaded) might be just as strong as using three anchors with one suture each (single-loaded), which is more common. This could save cost and bone but needs further study. The study proposes a new surgical technique using double-loaded anchors with more sutures to see if it offers similar strength while reducing implant use.
