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.
Perioperative dysglycemia-hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia, and glycemic variability-is associated with an increased risk for adverse outcomes. Several studies have reported the association between elevated preoperative HbA1c and postoperative complications. There are no studies that confirm that postponing elective surgery improves patient outcomes. Likewise, no prospective trials have studied whether short-term glycemic control reduces postoperative complications and unnecessary patient delays in elective surgeries. Consequently, we designed a randomized controlled trial to investigate the effects of short-term glycemic control before major abdominal surgery on postoperative morbidity and mortality.
Tubal patency testing is an essential part of female subfertility evaluation . Tubal abnormalities are seen in 30-40% of female subfertility patients . Laparoscopy with chromopertubation is considered to be the gold standard diagnostic procedure . Laparoscopy is an invasive test, with a risk of intra-abdominal bleeding, visceral damage, and risks related to general anaesthesia. Traditionally, Hysterosalpingography(HSG) is a less invasive less expensive first-step alternative, which has been used for decades with disadvantages such as radiation exposure, discomfort, or even abdominal pain. Hysterosalpingo-Contrast Sonography (HyCoSy) was introduced as an alternative using either contrast media or saline. The accuracy of HyCoSy is comparable to that of HSG and LSC being reference standards for tubal patency testing.However, hyperechogenic contrast media such as Echovist_ (Schering AG, Berlin) and SonoVue_ (Bracco, Milan)are either no longer available or not licensed for tubal patency testing. Hysterosalpingo-Foam Sonography (HyFoSy) was developed as an alternative for contrast HyCoSy and was introduced in 2010 as a first-line office tubal patency test.Foam is used in the HyFoSy technique to visualize the fallopian tubes and is created by rigorously mixing 5mlExEm_-gel (containing hydroxyethyl cellulose and glycerol,IQMedical Ventures BV, Rotterdam, TheNetherlands) with 5ml purified ExEm_-water. The ExEm_-foam is sufficiently fluid to pass the fallopian tubes and in the mean time sufficiently stable to show echogenicity for at least five minutes, which is an advantage over saline. In a review on safety aspects and side effects of ExEm-gel it was considered to be appropriate and safe for tubal patency testing. In 2017, HyLiFoSy combined with power Doppler (PD)(HyLiFoSy-PD) technique was described as a possibly less painful and easier to detect on ultrasound alternativeto HyFoSy and HyCoSy, which can be used whenever the contrast media used with both are either unavailable or is relatively expensive Ultrasound-based tubal patency tests include hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography (HyCoSy), hysterosalpingo-foam sonography (HyFoSy), and hysterosalpingo-lidocaine-foam sonography (HyLiFoSy)and have shown a high detection rate of tubal obstruction and good reproducibility with concordances from 83.8 to 100% with HSG, and from 78.1 to96.91% with lap-and-dye test. In addition, they allow for a single comprehensive assessment of the uterus and the fallopian tubes and it can be performed by the same specialist who indicates it, in the clinician's own office with it consequently being time efficient. Finally, some studies have shown an increase in the rate of post-procedure gestation.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most prominent kind of liver cancer, accounting for 85% of primary liver malignancies. It is a very aggressive tumor, having a terrible prognosis and poor survival rate HCC is ranked as the sixth most common type of cancer and the third leading cause of cancer-related mortalities world wide. HCC incidences arise in complications associated with chronic liver disease like cirrhosis, endemic hepatitis B virus (HBV)/hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections, non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and alcohol-related liver disease (Torre, 2015).
In high thrombus burden subgroup of Acute STEMI, manual aspiration thrombectomy was associated with reduced cardiovascular death but increased stroke or transient ischemic attack. The role of aspiration thrombectomy is still a matter of active debate. Manual aspiration suffers from decreasing aspiration force as the syringe fills with fluid and requires the operator to exchange syringes during the procedure to maintain suction.
The aim of the current study protocol is to compare the effect of two complete dentures made for completely edentulous patients; one digitally constructed using digital smile design (DSD) and another one conventionally constructed on the patient's quality of life and patient's satisfaction. It is a clinical trial in which two dentures will be made for each patient, one will be digitally constructed using digital smile design (DSD) and the other one using the conventional method with a washout period of 3 weeks. Each patient will receive a questionnaire "Oral Health Impact Profile -19" (OHIP -19) for the edentulous patients to evaluate his satisfaction with the denture.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of intrathecal non-preservative-free morphine and its effect on pain in patients undergoing unilateral inguinal hernia surgeries.
The aim of the study will be to investigate the effect of functional exercises on pain and quality of life in females with primary dysmenorrhea.
Prevalence of Dental Caries in a group of Egyptian children and its relation to TV and other screens time and sugar consumption (Observational cross-sectional study)
BASiC-CIC Trial is a multicenter, double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to investigate whether repurposing colchicine or a combination of beta-blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, and statins will be effective as a prophylactic treatment for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced cardiomyopathy, reduction of major adverse cardiovascular events, and all-cause mortality.
Problem statement: The post-operative pain after endodontic treatment. aim of study: The study is aiming to compare postoperative pain after submucosal cold saline injection (submucosal cryotherapy) (SMC) versus intra-canal cryotherapy (ICC) in mandibular single rooted premolars with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis with symptomatic apical periodontitis (SAP). The material and methods: Subjects and methods: sixty patients will be randomly divided into three groups: the SMC group, the ICC group, and the control group. The patients' postoperative pain will be recorded at 12, 24, and 48 hours postoperatively by questioning them. Quantification of substance P will be done using an ELISA test from peri-radicular fluid swab.
