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.
This study is performed to assess the safety, efficacy and outcome of transcatheter cardiac interventions in neonates with critical congenital heart disease at Sohag University Hospital
A classification has introduced C3 glomerulopathy (C3 glomerulopathy consensus report) that should be used to designate a disease process due to abnormal control of complement activation, deposition, or degradation and characterized by predominant glomerular C3 fragment deposits with EM dense deposits. Also, the consensus suggested that the term glomerulonephritis with dominant C3 should be used in practice as a morphological term for those cases with dominant C3 (C3c satining) which is defined as C3 intensity ≥ 2 orders of magnitude more than any other immune reactant on a scale of 0 to 3. C3 glomerulonephritis with 3 dominant C3 deposits include C3 glomerulopathy, post-infectious glomerulonephritis (PIGN) and others such as para-protein associated glomerulonephritis. In C3 glomerulopathy; the alternative pathway plays a major role in pathogenesis of this group of diseases. It occurs because of dysregulation of alternative complement pathway. Dysregulation can be due to mutations of complement proteins or to autoantibodies that promote complement activation. Classical/lectin complement pathway has shown potential in evaluation of C3 glomerulopathy. It's suggested that presence of glomerular C4d which is a product of early classical/lectin pathway, should not exclude a C3 glomerulopathy. Another disease group with prominent C3 deposits is postinfectious glomerulonephritis (PIGN) and although PIGN has traditionally been thought of as a disease triggered by glomerular immune complex deposition but C3 deposition in absence of immune complex deposits can be seen in patients with PIGN but with the emergence of C3 glomerulonephritis (C3GN), the distinction is difficult as the clinical and pathological presentation may be similar. However, their treatment and clinical course vary significantly. In addition there is overlap between PIGN and C3 glomerulopathy as they may both show prominent sub-epithelial humps on electron microscopy. This overlap means that it may be very difficult to decide on morphology alone whether a biopsy is a typical PIGN that will resolve, or whether it represents a C3 glomerulopathy due to an underlying complement abnormality that will lead to persistent glomerulonephritis.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in patients with atrophied anterior maxilla, bone augmentation techniques ( gold standard bone block and tent pole technique). The main question it aims to answer is : Does screw tent pole technique provides better bone gain than autogenous bone block in atrophied anterior maxilla? - primary objective to assess amount of bone gain - secondary objective assess bone quality Participants will be randomly divided into two groups study group ( tent pole technique) and control group ( bone block) - each group will be followed up monthly for soft tissue dehiscence and after 6 month to assess bone gain and bone quality and then implant placement.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of adding aminophylline to dexmedetomidine intravenous infusion intraoperatively on oxygenation and lung mechanics in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) morbidly obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery.
The study aims to assess the culprit-SYNTAX score and no-reflow PIANO scores as possible predictors of in-hospital and short-term outcomes among patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI
BACKGROUND: Dysphagia is one of the most life-threatening stroke complications. Dysphagic stroke patients are at increased risk of aspiration pneumonia. Pneumonia accounts for at least 10% of post stroke deaths within 30 days of hospitalization after stroke. rTMS is effective in improving post-stroke dysphagia and swallowing coordination after stimulation of the unaffected hemisphere, however it's efficacy on the prevalence of pneumonia has not yet been examined. Purpose of the study: To determine the effect of adding repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation to conventional oropharyngeal physical therapy program on the prevalence of aspiration pneumonia in in patients with post stroke dysphagia.
Pregnancy and childbirth are important events in a woman's and family's life and a time of great vulnerability for every country and culture on earth. Although the concept of "safe motherhood" is often limited to physical safety, the birth of a child is also an important life milestone for women and their familiesin our study for ssessing the degree of respectful maternity care, or mistreatment during pregnancy and childbirth in Assiut Governorate, Egypt and Exploring the factors associated with respectful maternity care and mistreatment among Egyptian women in Assiut governorate in rural and urban areas .
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of addition of intranasal ketamine to midazolam compared to midazolam alone as a premedication on the occurrence of PRAEs
The aim of this study is to compare the effect of resuscitation guided by Left ventricular outflow tract-velocity time integral (LVOT-VTI) variation versus the effect of resuscitation guided by inferior vena cava (IVC) variation on time to normalization of the capillary refill time in adult patients with septic shock, amount of resuscitation fluids, rate of vasopressor and ICU length of stay.
The aim of this work is to assess the efficacy of ultrasound guided greater occipital nerve block either by local anesthetic or by botulinum toxin in comparison to medical treatment in prevention of chronic migraine.
