There are about 3285 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.
Cricket is an extremely demanding sport. At an elite level, players are often required to perform at their limits of speed, agility, flexibility, endurance and strength. On top of all of this, players must maintain a high state of concentration in order to meet the tactical/mental demands of dealing with their opponents. In young cricket players, the most important attributes are high levels of skill. A long-term commitment to endurance and strength training is necessary to reach and maintain a player's full physical potential. The two primary objectives of the resistance program are to prevent injury and enhance the game's abilities. Strength plays a key role in all motor abilities, technical skills and tactical actions. Endurance performance capacity has long been recognized as an important prerequisite for on-field performance for Cricket players.
The sport of cricket calls for a high level of physical fitness and mastery of skills. Cricket players, especially fast bowlers, must have the skills to maintain consistency in their pace and accuracy while bowling helps them prevent batsmen from settling into their innings and helps bowlers succeed in getting wickets. Fast bowlers, being some of the most influential players on the cricket field, must undergo specific trainings. Sports-specific Drills and Plyometric training are two important types of training that help athletes in their particular sports.
Stroke is one of the high rated neurological disorders, induced by disruption of brain's blood flow. Stroke can alter the level of consciousness, motor and cognitive skills, sensory perception and language; it all depends on the extent of injury and the region of brain that is affected. Even though all the rehabilitation given to the "stroke" patients, but still 25-30% of the survivors still have gait and balance problem and they require complete physical support before their discharge from the hospital. Backward treadmill walking has reported numerous benefits in improving balance, motor function and gait. Cross training is a technique which is applied to healthy limb of the individual to increase muscle strength and muscle activity.so the aim of this study is to find the effects of backward treadmill walking and lower extremity cross training on gross motor function and balance among stroke patients. The study will be randomized clinical trials, Participants will be randomly allocated into two groups each group will have 13. This study will be conducted in Safi teaching Hospital Faisalabad. Group A will be treated with backward treadmill walking and group B will be treated with lower extremity cross training. All participants will receive conventional physical exercises which includes general mobility and functional activities. In this study, the 40-minute training programs for both groups will be occur 5 times a week for 6 weeks, with 5 minutes being allocated for warm up, 30 minutes devoted to the main exercise, and 5 minutes for cool down. Outcome will be measured before and after giving treatment by using Tinetti performance oriented mobility assessment and lower extremity functional scale. The results will be calculated by using SPSS version 25. Frequencies and mean standard deviation will be measured, parametric and non-parametric tests will be applied
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of Muscle Energy Techniques on post dural puncture headache, neck pain and disability after Cesarean Section. .
The goal of this multicenter randomized clinical trial is to test the superiority in terms of efficacy of the Angiography-derived fractional flow reserve (AIR) over that based on conventional angiography (ANGIO) strategy in the management of non-culprit lesions in STEMI patients with multivessel disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: - is an Angiography-derived fractional flow reserve strategy superior to a conventional angiography strategy in reducing the occurrence of the composite efficacy endpoint of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, or ischemia-driven revascularization. - is an Angiography-derived fractional flow reserve strategy superior to a conventional angiography strategy in reducing the occurrence of the composite safety endpoint of of contrast-associated acute kidney injury and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 3-5. Participants will be randomized after the successful treatment of the culprit lesion to one of the two strategies and prospectively followed-up.
OBJECTIVES - To assess the levels of plasma carnitine in controls and hemodialysis patients. - To give supplementary L-carnitine to study subjects for a duration of 5months. - To compare the values of plasma carnitine before and after L carnitine supplementation. - To assess the role of carnitine supplementation on biochemical and clinical parameters.
Primary Aims: To determine the clinical efficacy of Culturally adapted Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CaCBT) and Culturally adapted Family Intervention (CulFI) compared to Treatment As Usual (TAU) on reducing overall symptoms of psychosis in patients with First Episode Psychosis (FEP) in Pakistan. Secondary Aims: 1. To determine the efficacy of CaCBT and CulFI compared to TAU on positive and negative symptoms of psychosis, general psychopathology, depressive symptoms, quality of life, general functioning, and insight in patients with FEP in Pakistan. 2. To determine the efficacy of CaCBT and CulFI compared to TAU on improving carer experience, carer wellbeing, carer illness attitudes and symptoms of depression and anxiety in family and carers of patients with FEP in Pakistan. 3. To determine the comparative effect of CaCBT and CulFI in improving patient and carer related outcomes in individuals with FEP in Pakistan. 4. To estimate the economic impact of delivering culturally appropriate psychosocial interventions in low-resource settings 5. To explore delivery and reach of each intervention, tolerability of intervention components, acceptability of interventions, understanding mechanism of change and developing an understanding of barriers and facilitators to future adoption using process evaluation. Study design and setting: This will be a multi-centre, assessor masked, individual, three-arm randomised controlled trial (RCT). Sample Size: The study aims to recruit a total of N=390 participants with FEP
Stroke is a neurological impairment occurs due to cardiovascular abnormality and cerebrovascular disease. The term 'stroke' is mostly used when there is sudden loss of function of the body due any abrupt changes.The rates of disability are increasing along with mortality and morbidity rates due to stroke. The poor motor performance of lower limb affects gait severely. The slow velocity and other gait deviations limit the stroke survivors' ability to perform ADL's and interfere with their quality of life. Hence, rehabilitation is obligatory for these patients to improve their quality of life
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effectiveness of Myo-kinetic stretching exercises versus post-isometric relaxation exercise in patients with cervical radiculopathy. Convenient sampling technique will be used to enroll the patients. Patients will be screened on the basis of pre formulated eligibility criteria. Written Consent will be taken from each patient for participation in the trial. The calculated Sample size of this study will be 68 calculated through Epitool. Group A will receive conservative baseline treatment consisted of hot pack therapy for 10 minutes and traction for 8 minutes. Myo-kinetic stretching exercises and group B will receive conservative baseline treatment and post-isometric relaxation exercise. The assessment of patients will be done at baseline, 4th and 8th week. The outcomes from patients will be calculated by using Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), Goniometer and Neck Disability Index. The comparison between pre-treatment and post-treatment data will be done after 8th week. Data will be analyzed through SPSS 25.
This is a multi-center, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled, phase 3 clinical study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 bivalent mRNA vaccine (LVRNA021) as booster in participants aged 18 years and older who completed primary/1 booster dose(s) of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.
