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.
Two hundred and ten women requesting IUD insertion will be randomly divided into three equal groups. To ensure blinding the double dummy technique will be used in which group 1 will receive Tramadol 100mg (Trama®, Global Napi, Giza, Egypt) orally in addition to a placebo similar to Celecoxib, group 2 will receive Celecoxib 200mg (Celebrex® 200, Pfizer, USA) in addition to a placebo similar to Tramadol, and group 3 will received a placebo similar to Tramadol in addition to a placebo similar to Celecoxib. All the drugs will be given 2 hour before the procedure. After insertion of the IUD the women's pain perception will be assessed using a visual analogue scale (VAS) graduated from zero to 10 with zero corresponding to no pain and 10 corresponding to the worst possible pain.
This project is a prospective observational cohort study to quantify the risk of acquiring Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection for patients and healthcare workers in Ain Shams University Teaching Hospital, Cairo, Egypt through: 1) identifying typical patient trajectories within the hospital; and 2) assessing the ward-specific risk based on the type and number of procedures performed and the prevalence of HCV viremia in patients within each ward.
To evaluate safety and efficacy of 3-day cetrotide therapy started on day of oocyte retrieval (Day-0) in women at high-risk for development of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) after gonadotropin- releasing hormon agonist induction protocol. Patients & Methods: Forty-eight women fulfilling inclusion criteria underwent ultrasound scanning for maximal ovarian diameter (MOD) estimation and ascites grading. Patients underwent embryo freezing, but study group received 3-day Cetrotide sc injection (0.25 mg/day) started on Day-0. Serum E2, pain scores and MOD were checked daily. Hematocrit value (Ht%), total leucocytic count (TLC), gastrointestinal (GI) manifestations and ascites grading were re-evaluated on Day-3, 6 and 8
This study was to investigate the diagnostic value of ultrasonography and blood flow measurements in uterine arteries and spiral arteries by transvaginal color Doppler ultrasonography in the detection of the endometrial pathology in women with postmenopausal bleeding.
Evaluate the therapeutic effects health benefits, and immunological effect of Nigella sativa in children with beta thalassemia major.
Labial alveolar bone thickness and apical root resorption changes associated with self-ligating versus conventional brackets. The aim of this study will be to compare labial alveolar bone thickness and apical root resorption changes associated with self-ligating versus conventional brackets.
The primary aim of the current study is to clarify whether serum vitamin D levels [25(OH)D3] have a temporal association with insulin resistance and/or insulin sensitivity in PCOS women versus healthy ones. To achieve this aim, the investigators will conduct a prospective observational study involving obese and lean PCOS women in comparison to obese and lean healthy subjects living in Cairo, Egypt.
Randomized, placebo controlled clinical trial that evaluate the role of taking metformin therapy during pregnancy in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome(PCOS) in reducing the development of gestational diabetes(GDM) and improving pregnancy outcomes.
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a challenging health problem. According to the World Health Organization, an estimated 240 million individuals (3.7%) suffered from chronic HBV infection worldwide. After acute hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, the disappearance of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) had generally been believed to signify viral elimination. However, it now becomes clear that those subjects may have occult HBV infection which is defined as the presence of HBV DNA in the liver in the absence of HBsAg in the serum. Occult HBV infection usually accompanies antibody against hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc) and/or antibody against HBsAg (anti-HBs), but some cases might not have these serological markers (seronegative occult HBV infection) .
More than two billion individuals have serological evidence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection worldwide. Of these, 240 million are chronic carriers and approximately 786,000 hepatitis B related deaths occur annually. Currently available hepatitis B vaccines are extremely safe and have an efficacy of >90 percent against all HBV serotypes and genotypes. Thus, HBV infection can potentially be eradicated through global vaccination. A positive immune response to the vaccine is defined as the development of hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs) at a titer of >10 mIU/mL. Although anti-HBs titers decrease with time, the duration of protection is long. Protection has been estimated to persist for up to 22 years after the primary vaccination schedule. Protection from clinical disease, despite declining or even undetectable anti-HBs levels, is probably due to the priming of memory cells, which are capable of eliciting an anamnestic response when challenged. This is supported by the rapid increases in anti-HBs titers in previously vaccinated individuals who administered booster injections.
