There are about 1320 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Saudi Arabia. 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 looking at how Mim8 works in people with haemophilia A, who either have inhibitors or do not have inhibitors. Mim8 is a new medicine that will be used to avoid bleeding episodes. Mim8 works by replacing the function of the missing clotting factor VIII (FVIII). When and how often the participants will receive Mim8 in this study depends on the treatment participant receives in the current Mim8 study participant is taking part in. The study will last for up to 5.5 years. The duration of the study depends on when the participant enrolled in this study. The study will end if Mim8 is approved and marketed in participant's country during the study, or the study will end in 2028, whichever comes first. Mim8 will be injected under the skin with a thin needle either once a week, once every two weeks or once a month. Participants will get up to 262 injections; the number of injections depends on how often participants will get injections. While taking part in this study, there are some restrictions about what medicine participants can use. The study doctor will tell the participants more about this. In case the participants experience bleeds, these can be treated with additional haemostatic medicine as agreed with the study doctor. Female participants cannot take part if they are pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to get pregnant during the study period.
purpose of the study: to determine the effectiveness of cervical mobilization with PIR in reducing pain and improving neck ROM and function in people with mechanical neck pain associated with MTrPs
The rate of pulmonary complications following Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is high. Early pulmonary exercises are important in preventing this complication following cardiac surgery. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of incentive spirometer (IS) and diaphragmatic breathing exercise (DBE) on the alteration of arterial blood gas (ABG) measures. The study was based on a two-arm, parallel-group, randomized comparative design. Thirty patients who underwent CABG enrolled in the study based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, randomly allocated into either of the groups, IS Group or DBE Group. IS Group and DBE Group underwent chest physiotherapy with IS and DBE, respectively. ABG measures, including PH of blood, partial pressure of arterial oxygen molecule (PaO2), and partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2), was assessed using an ABG analyzer at baseline (pre-operation), day1 post-operation, and day2 post-operation. The significance level was kept constant for all statistical analyses at 95%.
Primary hypertension, also called essential hypertension, is a rise in blood pressure (BP) with no identifiable cause. The most prevalent form of hypertension is essential hypertension, which involves 95% of patients with hypertension.Progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) is learning to relax some groups of muscles while paying attention to the feelings connected with both the tense and relaxed states.It is generally established that regular slow (deep) breathing exercises enhance respiratory and cardiovascular function by enhancing parasympathetic tone and reducing sympathetic activity, thus reducing BP, heart rate, respiratory rate, and stress levels in hypertensive patients. This study aimed to investigate the combined effect of slow breathing and PMR technique on BP, heart rate, respiratory rate, and anxiety in patients diagnosed with essential hypertension.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of a 12-week dose-graded aerobic exercise program (D-GAE) on cardiopulmonary fitness and physical performance in children survivors of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). A total of 58 ALL survivors were randomly assigned to the D-GAE group (n = 29, who underwent a combination of traditional physical rehabilitation and intensity- and duration-graded aerobic training three times per week for 12 weeks) or the control group (n = 29, who underwent only traditional physical rehabilitation). Cardiopulmonary fitness and physical performance were evaluated in both groups before and after treatment.
This study is aimed to see the antihypertensive effect of statin (Atorvastatin) as certain animal models have shown that statins have the voltage-gated calcium channel blocking effect. It will be a randomized controlled trial that will be done in Ayub Hospital Complex Abbottabad. After ethical approval, 120 patients with newly diagnosed hypertension belonging to either gender and aged 35 and above will be enrolled in the trial. They will randomly be grouped into two groups with each group comprising 60 patients. One group will be administered Amlodipine 5 mg PO once a day, while the other one will be given 5mg Amlodipine plus 10 mg Atorvastatin. The patients will be examined on a follow-up visit 14 days later and blood pressure will be recorded as per protocols.
Background: Knee osteoarthritis is the most common disorder impacting the synovial joint. The prevalence of osteoarthritis rises with age, and its consequences on health and socioeconomic are significant, which emphasize the need for clinical and cost-effective treatments for patients with knee OA. Knee OA is a widespread joint arthritis disease combined with many clinical features such as pain, decreased joint proprioception and might lead to loss of function and disability. Aim: To evaluate the effect of a 6-weeks supervised graded weight-bearing exercise program on pain, function, proprioception, muscle strength in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Material and Method: Thirty-six patients with chronic knee osteoarthritis with age ranging 40-60 years will be recruited from the physical therapy department and randomized into three groups. Group I: will receive graded weight-bearing exercise using the anti-gravity treadmill combined with open kinetic chain exercises. Group II will receive closed kinetic chain exercises with open kinetic chain exercises while group III will receive open kinetic chain exercises only i.e: stretching and strengthening exercises. The outcome measures will be pain, function, proprioception, and muscle strength. Statistical analysis: To detect changes in the dependent variables within and between groups, one-way repeated measures Multivariate analysis will be applied. If there is a significant change within groups or between tests, the post hoc Bonferroni test will be used to detect the significance between each group and/or each level of measurement. The level of significance is p<0.05 and confidence interval CI 95%. Study Design: Single-blinded, randomised control trial.
Obesity is classified as a low-grade chronic and systemic inflammatory disease and results from complicated interactions between genes and environmental factors, which leads to many diseases and affects the quality of life. There are growing interests in the effectiveness of probiotics as a supplementation to treat obesity through regulating microbiota host metabolism. Probiotics may influence the interplays among gut, brain, adipose, and liver in a way leading to weight. Since limited studies have been conducted on human subjects, more investigation is needed in this field. Therefore, this study sheds light on the investigation of the anti-obesity effect of probiotic supplementation.
The aim of this study is to investigate the role of 0.5 micrograms/kg of dexmedetomidine with 0.2 % ropivacaine in erector spinae block in reducing opioid consumption for patients undergoing lumbar spine surgeries. This study will help in understanding the role of adding dexmdetomidine to ropivacaine in erector spinae block in reducing opioid consumption after lumbar spine surgeries
People who are overweight are getting more and more common in every region of the world. However, despite significant progress being made in the treatment options available for overweight, the worldwide incidence of overweight has not gone down, and the challenge of overweight has become a worrisome phenomenon of our times. Additionally, the process that underlie this illness and the etiological variables are not fully comprehended. As a result, it is absolutely necessary to determine the factors that contribute to obesity and define the responsibilities that each play. Researchers have devoted a significant portion of the better part of the last decade to studying the microbiota of the gut to determine whether or not it may play a factor in the development of obesity. Across spite of this, there is a paucity of accessible epidemiological data in Saudi Arabia. In addition, the relationship between the composition of the "gut microbiota" and obesity indices in youthful women of reproductive age is little understood. In view of this, we decided to conduct a case study utilizing whole-genome shotgun sequencing to compare the gut microbiota of obese women from Saudi Arabia with that of healthy control participants. Our findings shed light on the significance of the gut microbiota in obesity and provide useful insight into the creation of a method for the therapy of obesity by means of microbiota transfer of fecal, antibiotics, probiotics, and prebiotics. In addition, these data reveal prospective targets for guiding the selection of probiotic strains for the needed gut microbiota regulation in the obesity therapy.
