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 aims to compare function of the body's endogenous pain modulation system between people with localized low back pain versus widespread body pain. Endogenous pain modulation refers to the body's natural ability to inhibit one pain stimulus by applying a second pain stimulus. This study will assess pain inhibition by measuring pressure pain thresholds at the low back before and during cold water hand immersion. The researchers hypothesize that those with widespread body pain will have worse functioning of pain inhibition compared to those with localized low back pain only. The results may provide insights into personalized chronic pain management approaches.
This research study aims to better understand the relationships between neck muscle function, neck joint position sense, and headache pain and disability in people with chronic cervicogenic headache. Cervicogenic headache is headache originating from the neck area. Participants will fill out questionnaires about their headache pain and ability to do daily activities. They will also do tests to measure neck muscle fatigue and neck joint position sense. Researchers will analyze if those with more neck muscle fatigue and poorer joint position sense have worse headache pain and disability. The results may improve understanding of cervical spine factors related to cervicogenic headache. This could help guide more targeted treatment approaches.
This observational study aims to compare measures of sensory nerve function between chronic low back pain patients matched for baseline pain and disability levels who are then classified as responders or non-responders after completing a 12-week tailored exercise program. Measures collected include sural sensory nerve conduction, quantitative sensory testing for pressure and heat pain thresholds, and psychosocial questionnaires. It is hypothesized that baseline sensory nerve dysfunction may be associated with reduced response to exercise therapy in chronic low back pain.
The goal of this case control observational study is to asses anxiety, sleep, depression and quality of life in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) patients. The main aims are: - asses anxiety, sleep, depression and quality of life in SLE patients - their relation to disease activity we will compare SLE patients to healthy subjects.
Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) is a neurohormone secreted by the pineal gland with several important functions, including regulation of the circadian rhythms, and antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, accumulating evidence revealed that it also plays an important role in pain modulation through multiple mechanisms. The investigators aimed to evaluate the analgesic effect of melatonin during venous cannula insertion in preterm neonates by assessing Premature Infant pain Profile score (PIPP) before and 5 minutes after the procedure, and to demonstrate the significant relationship between procedural pain and Malondialdehyde (MDA), a well-accepted marker of oxidative stress through measuring MDA after 60 minutes of the procedure.
The goal of the trial is to compare Arthroscopic repair against Opening wedge high tibial osteotomy for Medial Meniscus posterior root tears
A comparative study between ultrasound guided thoracic paravertebral block VS ultrasound guided serrartus anterior muscle block in video-assisted thoracoscopic surgeries as regard their effectiveness in post-operative analgesia
This study will be conducted to answer the following question: Does high power laser acupuncture has any effect on pain, back range of motion, function, quality of life, fatigue and level of satisfaction in chronic nonspecific low back pain patients?
Evaluate the efficacy of two regimens of management in relieving chronic refractory pain in patients with upper limb complex regional pain syndrome after orthopedic trauma
The goal of this [ Can second resection for pT1 bladder carcinoma be safely avoided after initial En-Bloc Resection with negative vertical and horizontal safety margins ? is to assess the impact of avoiding re TUR on Recurrence free survival, progression free survival and cancer specific survival in patients with pT1 bladder cancer treated with ERBT and intravesical BCG through a RCT.
