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.
The global burden of colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence among young age groups is rising and overwhelming. This new trend of young-onset CRC incidence is evident in western countries. Unfortunately, Asian countries have shown the same epidemic shift in the past few years. As a consequence, this situation might necessitate revisiting the current screening program in this region. Saudi Arabia has a two-fold increase in CRC incidence among young age groups in the last 18 years (9.6/100000 for male versus 9.3/100000 for female). This rising incidence ascribed to the lack of a screening program and suggested lowering CRC screening to 40. The low awareness about risk factors, signs, and symptoms of the disease causes late presentation of CRC cases. Therefore, most presenting cases are associated with a poor prognosis and short survival. Educational and screening programs are, by no means, considered valuable and essential as CRC tends to affect younger age groups.

Objective: To evaluate potential benefits of adding the active form of Coenzyme Q10 (Ubiquinol) to Clomiphene Citrate compared with Human Menopausal Gonadotropins (hMG) in Clomiphene Citrate resistant PCOS patients. Methods: 148 PCOS Patients with Clomiphene Citrate resistance were randomized into two groups (A and B). In group A, controlled ovarian stimulation was done by Clomiphene Citrate 150 mg daily (from 2nd till 6th day of cycle) together with Ubiquinol starting from 2nd day till day of hCG triggering in a dose of 100 mg orally once daily. In group B, hMG was given from 2nd day of the cycle in a dose ranging from 75 to 225 IU. Serial transvaginal ultrasonography was done starting on cycle day 8 and continued till size of leading follicle reaches 18 mm or more then ovulation triggering was done. Thereafter, patients were advised for a timed intercourse (TI) after 36 hours. A blood sample was withdrawn seven days after hCG triggering, for measurement of serum progesterone. If the Patient presented with a missed period for one week, a serum sample was sent for β-hCG.
To examine effects of two approaches to sahoor meal consumption during Ramadan on blood sugar control and incidence of early day hypoglycemic episodes requring the discontinuation of fasting.
The physiological change in food and sleep pattern during Ramadan impacted hypoglycemia risks among pregnant women. Few studies investigated the incidence of hypoglycemia pregnant women with or without diabetes during fasting in Ramadan in Saudi Arabia. This study aims to understand the glucose variability in pregnant women during fasting Ramadan in Saudi Arabia.
With this design, this study hypothesizes that; (i) ICG-PDT would produce superior clinical, microbiological, and immune-inflammatory outcomes as compared to RSD and (ii) ICG-PDT would produce equal efficacy among different forms of diabetes as produced in non-diabetic subjects and that diabetes mellitus would not produce negative impact on the therapeutic outcomes of ICG-PDT. Therefore, the aim of this randomized controlled clinical trial was to evaluate the efficacy of ICG-mediated aPDT in the treatment of stage III grade C periodontitis among patients with prediabetes, T2DM and non-diabetic subjects.
Objective: To investigate the potential benefit of adding Thymoquinone to Metformin in alleviating symptoms of polycystic ovarian syndrome. Methods: 207 overweight and obese PCOS Patients were divided into two groups. Patients in Group A, received Metformin 500 mg three times daily for 6 months. Patients in Group B, received a combination of Metformin 500 mg and Thymoquinone in the form of Black Cumin oil 500 mg capsules three times daily for 6 months. Follow up was done after 3 and 6 months from the beginning of the study for evaluation of menstrual cycle pattern, body mass index, Waist circumference, Hip circumference, and Waist / Hip ratio, Oral glucose tolerance test, Glycosylated Hemoglobin A1C, Superoxide dismutase activity and Malondialdehyde concentration.
Background: Fiberoptic intubation is an effective technique for establishing airway access in patients with critical airways. Objective: It was hypothesized that the learning of oral fiberoptic intubation by the anesthesia resident trainee is easier and safe using modified nasopharyngeal airway. Methodology: This prospective randomized study was done on 62 adult patients with normal airway scheduled for elective oral fiberoptic intubation, their age 20 -60 years, 56 males and 6 females, American Society of Anesthesiologists I-III class. After institute ethical committee clearance and written informed consent, patients were randomly divided into two groups of 31 each; Group I: oral fiberoptic intubation was carried out using lingual traction. In group II, FOI was carried out using lingual traction plus a shortened uncuffed nasal endotracheal tube (modified nasopharyngeal airway). Time taken to successful tracheal intubation and other technical parameters were recorded. Heart rate, mean arterial blood pressure, oxygen saturation, end-tidal carbon dioxide tension, and any associated complications were also recorded.

Diabetes Self-care Education (DSCE) is a formal term used to describe the ongoing process of facilitating the knowledge, skills, and ability necessary for diabetes self-care. Supporting self-care is a crucial aspect of any health service, especially the one that targeting diabetes. It has shown a positive effect on the clinical, psychological, and behavioural aspects of diabetics. However, culturally adapted educational services that recognize the context should be established and used carefully, as most of the social media and YouTube educational products are not relevant most of the time. Diabetic patients who receive no education about their diabetes, are four times as likely to develop complications as those who do not. Oppositely, those who attending diabetes education programs are less likely to develop long-term complications. The core question of the trial is to find an answer to the question: how the Diabetes self-care information, education provided by trained health care educator at primary care is effective in controlling patterns of blood glucose, reducing BMI, and enhancing self-care behaviour among diabetic patients attending chronic care clinic compared to the control group receiving routine care for diabetes.
