There are about 3095 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Pakistan. 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.

If Vitamin D supplementation has any impact on fetal outcomes.
Introduction Patients with rectal prolapse are treated with injection sclerotherapy, which is the most often used first-line surgical technique. Injection sclerotherapy has a success rate of 90-100% in youngsters, according to certain studies. Objective To compare the outcome of injection sclerotherapy using 5% Phenol in almond oil, 15% hypertonic saline and 50% dextrose water in the treatment of rectal prolapse in children.
USG guided injections to relieve carpal tunnel syndrome with dextrose water or steroid or PRP
Control of bleeding is very important during endoscopic sinus surgery. Saline heated up to 50°C causes dilatation of vessels and edema without nasal mucosa necrosis. It also promotes the clotting cascade so helps in having a bloodless procedure. This randomized controlled trial was conducted on 60 patients divided into two groups (30 each). Group A was the interventional group in which patients were irrigated with saline of 50°C during surgery. Group B was the control group where room temperature saline was used. Operative field was assessed using the Boezaart score, duration of surgery and bleeding in ml. KEY WORDS: - Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) - Endoscopic sinus surgery - Boezaart score
this study will be conducted involving patients of all genders between the ages of 20 and 60 years who will undergo elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy for uncomplicated symptomatic gallstone disease. The study will be conducted in Department of West Surgical Ward, Mayo Hospital, Lahore, after receiving approval from the hospital's Ethical Committee. Patients having other co-morbid conditions, pregnant patients, and those undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy converted to open surgery will be excluded from the study. LFTs and other baseline investigations will be done routinely of every patient. Written informed consent will be obtained from all the patient. Patients will be divided into two groups with 30 patients in each group. Group A will consist of patient in whom ERAS protocol will be implemented and Group B in whom ERAS protocol will not be implemented.
Background and Objectives To compare the efficacy of gel foam-soaked pyodine with a single topical application of clotrimazole ointment. Subjects and Methods This randomized controlled trial will include 90 patients presenting to ENT OPD with complaints of earache, watery ear discharge, pruritis, and ear blockage and will be clinically diagnosed as a case of otomycosis on otoscopy. The external auditory canal of the patient will be cleared of fungal debris via suction before treatment In Group A ear canal will be filled with 1% clotrimazole ointment by using an IV catheter and syringe and in Group B pyodine-soaked gel foam will be placed in the external auditory canal. The patients will be followed up on post-treatment days 7 and 14.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Kangaroo Mother care can have effect on oxidative stress in premature neonates. It will also learn about the bonding between mother and her premature infant. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does Kangaroo mother care lower the biomarker of oxidative stress in premature neonates? - Is Kangaroo mother care associated with mother-infant bonding? Researchers will compare Kangaroo mother care to Conventional incubator care to see if Kangaroo mother care works to have effect on oxidative stress. Participants will be: - given Kangaroo mother care on third day of life or standard incubator care for one hour - Urine sample for oxidative stress biomarker will be collected via noninvasive method before and after Kangaroo mother care or conventional incubator care from premature neonates. - Mother-infant bonding scale will be filled by mothers of enrolled premature infants before and after kangaroo mother care and conventional incubator care
To determine whether resistive diaphragmatic breathing exercise with pursed lips breathing exercise improve pulmonary function in sub-acute ischemic stroke, To determine whether resistive diaphragmatic breathing exercise with pursed lips breathing exercise improve Trunk Control in sub-acute ischemic stroke, To determine whether resistive diaphragmatic breathing exercise with pursed lips breathing exercise improve Functional Capacity in sub-acute ischemic stroke
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to determine the effects of aerobic interval training on levels of tiredness and functional performance in post-angioplasty patients. The main question it aims to answer is: Does aerobic interval training reduce fatigue and improve functional performance compared to medication alone in post-angioplasty patients? Participants will: Be randomly assigned to either the control group (medication) or the experimental group (medication + aerobic interval training) Perform aerobic interval training for 30 minutes, three times a week, for six weeks (experimental group only) Complete pre and post-intervention assessments using the fatigue severity scale, the 6-minute walk test, and the one minute sit to stand test Researchers will compare the two groups to see if aerobic interval training leads to significant improvements in fatigue levels and functional performance.
Painful condition of lateral epicondyle of the humerus characterized by the inflammation of the tendons during loading of the wrist extensor muscles is a common musculoskeletal presentation in men and women between 35 and 54 years of age. The above symptom is associated with a clinical diagnosis of lateral elbow tendinopathy (LET), also known as tennis elbow or lateral epicondylalgia the two effective treatment approaches for lateral epicondylitis are Nirschl exercises and Mulligan taping. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Nirschl exercises with or without Mulligan taping in treating lateral epicondylitis. The study design for this project employs a randomized controlled trial and a sample of individuals with lateral epicondylitis randomly assigned in one of the two groups i.e., Nirschl exercises only and Nirschl exercises with Mulligan taping. Nirschl exercises involve the eccentric strengthening of the wrist extensor muscles and forearm. The participants in both groups will receive Nirschl exercises while the second group will also receive Mulligan taping, which involves the application of tape to the lateral aspect of the elbow to offload stress during movement of the extensor tendons. Different outcome measures including pain intensity, functional disability, grip strength, range of motion will be evaluated using, PRTEE Scale, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Calibrated Jammer hand held dynamometer. Statistical analysis, including independent t-tests or chi-square tests, will be conducted to compare the outcomes between the two groups. The significance level will be set at p < 0.05. This study will contribute to the evidence base regarding the efficacy of Nirschl exercises and Mulligan taping in managing lateral epicondylitis and will help the clinicians and patients in deciding the best treatment approach for lateral epicondylitis.
