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.
1000 women with infertility who are already decided to be treated with ICSI will be subjected to full history taking and clinical examination. On the second day of menstruation serum FSH, LH, Prolactin and Oestradiol will be assessed and the antral follicular count (AFC) will be assessed using a vaginal ultrasound scan. AFC will be defined as the number of follicles measuring 3-10mm. All patients will have standard pituitary down-regulation followed by (Human menopausal gonadotrophin (HMG) stimulation until the day of (Human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) administration. On the day of HCG administration, ovarian ultrasound scan will be performed using a transvaginal probe and the Preovulatory follicle count (PC) will be assessed, (PFC) is defined as number of follicles measuring≥16mm. Follicular sensitivity index (FSI) will be calculated as: (FSI =PFC*10000/AFC*Total dose of FSH)
Since success of the combination therapy with PEG-IFN and RBV is contingent on maintaining adequate doses of both drugs throughout the treatment period, the emergence of hematological side effects is expected and requires intervention. The hematological adverse effects lead to a trade-off between continuing the treatment with optimal dosage, to clear the virus, exacerbating thereby the side effects versus decreasing dosage to relieve severe anemia, reducing thereby the chances of achieving sustained virological response (SVR). Therefore, we aimed at giving Folic acid® and Neurobion® to HCV-infected patients during treatment with different types of PEG-IFN plus ribavirin in an attempt to evaluate its efficacy and safety as a prophylactic treatment to prevent hematological adverse effects. Preventing adverse effects without interfering with the therapeutic efficacy of different types of PEG-IFN plus ribavirin in HCV patients will lead to better health outcomes and improvement in their quality of life (HRQOL).
Objective To determine maternal and fetal outcomes in women with Unexplained RPL managed with aspirin or unfractionated heparin (UFH) plus aspirin during pregnancy. Design: prospective clinical controlled study. Setting: high-risk pregnancy unit- Benha university hospital. Methods: Pregnant women with unexplained recurrent miscarriage attending high-risk pregnancy unit. 200 selected patients with previous unexplained recurrent miscarriage are divided into 2 groups: group A (n = 100) receive low-dose aspirin (81 mg once daily orally) plus heparin (5000 IU) every 12 h with the first positive pregnancy test while group B (n = 100) receive no thing . Main outcome measures: Maternal outcomes included thromboembolic and haemorrhagic complications and pregnancy-induced hypertension .Prematurity, intrauterine growth restriction and neonatal death were considered as maternal and fetal complications
Use versus non use of urinary catheterization during Second Elective caesarean delivery:
Laparoscopic Ovarian Drilling is a valid procedure for infertile anovulatory women with polycystic ovarian syndrome who failed to get pregnant or to ovulate with ovulation induction medications as clomiphene citrate or exogenous gonadotropins. The reasearchers supposed that endometrial curettage at time of laparoscopic ovarian drilling may boost fertility in these women.
To compare staged ureteroscopy following initial urinary drainage versus direct ureteroscopy without initial urinary drainage in the treatment of obstructive calcular anuria with acute renal failure in children.
the investigators aim to compare bimanual uterine compression immediately after delivery of the placenta for 5 minutes versus no intervention for the prevention of postpartum hemorrhage in Women at high risk for primary atonic postpartum hemorrhage. The primary outcome is postpartum haemorrhage (blood loss of ≥ 500 ml) while the Secondary outcomes include use of additional uterotonics and need for blood transfusion.
The effect of the balloon on weight loss is investigated by multiple studies. However, the effect of the sequential balloons is not studied yet.
The best management of the acute cholecystitis is to do laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The hypothesis is that to do it as an early intervention after patient admission is better than delayed cholecystectomy regarding the hospital stay, interval for antibiotic, the easiness of the operative maneuver reflected by operative time, conversion and intraoperative complications.
Our aim is to establish multi-center national Egyptian database of information about cerebrovascular stroke and hemiplegia in infants and children from 0 to 18 years of age.
