Filter by:This is a study to compare the efficacy of bimekizumab versus adalimumab in the treatment of subjects with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis (PSO).
The effect of Tactile/Kinaesthetic massage therapy on weight gain and different components of growth, as assessed by anthropometric measurements and DXA scan, and correlate these components with serum IGF-1, leptin and adiponectin in preterm infants.
Laboratory monitoring of patients included serial measurement of complete blood cell count, liver function tests, coagulation profile, and renal function tests. ICU management during conduction of the research study included the following: Control of convulsions using magensium sulphate. Control of blood pressure Diastolic blood pressure above 110 mmHg, nifedipine was administered.A plasma volume expansion with saline was used in all women to maintain sufficient intravascular volume. Delivery was performed immediately after hemodynamic stabilization and clinical control of general condition .
Generalized aggressive periodontitis (GAgP) is a distinct type of periodontal disease characterized by rapid loss of attachment and alveolar bone occuring in young individuals. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) was introduced in periodontology as an adjunctive approach to non-surgical periodontal treatment (NPT) in periodontitis patients. In this trial, it was aimed that to evaluate the clinical and microbiological effects of adjunctive PDT to NPT in patients with GAgP. In this prospective controlled clinical study, 24 systemically healthy, non-smoking subjects with GAgP were enrolled. Subjects were randomly assigned to a control group (n=12) treated with NPT only or to a test group (n=12) treated with NPT and PDT. Plaque index, sulcus bleeding index (SBI), pocket depth (PD), relative attachment level, gingival recession, mobility were recorded at baseline and on day 63. Microbiological samples were obtained fom the sites with PD ≥5 mm at the same time points and evaluated for Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia, Tannerella forsythia and Treponema denticola using micro-IDent test.
Using eltronmobag as an alternative pathway, which depend on stimulation of thrombocyte synthesis, in chronic and persistent immune thrombocytopenia may be more promising treatment than the classic type, not only by increasing platelets count but also through enhancing of the platelets activation and upregulation of GPVI expression on platelet surface. This study will include 40 pediatric patients with chronic or persistent ITP, recruited from the Hematology clinic of pediatric hospital Ain Shams University, aiming to investigate the efficacy, & the safety and tolerability of eltrombopag therapy for children as well as the ability of eltrombopag to enhance the platelet activation through the up-regulation of glycoprotein VI (GPVI) receptor expression in comparison with other lines of treatment. Patients will be divided into 2 groups : Group 1 on eltrombopag ; Group 2 : receiving other lines of therapy . All Patients will be subjected to : 1. bleeding score assessment ( baseline &every month ) and Health related quality of life based on Kids' ITP Tools (KIT) questionnaires( baseline and week 24 ) 2. Baseline and at week 24 bone marrow examination with reticulin stain 3. clinical examination every 2 weeks and complete blood counts. 4. Assessment of soluble form of glycoprotein VI using sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) as well as assessment of platelet activation by GPVI using flowcytometry (Gardiner, etal.,2010 ) at baseline and at the end of 6 months treatment period
Safety and efficacy of addition of hyaluronidase to lidocaine and bupivacaine in scalp nerves block in elective craniotomy operations,Comparative study
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety profile, the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the associated dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of S 81694 in combination with paclitaxel in metastatic breast cancer (mBC) patients, and to investigate the antitumour activity of the combination in metastatic triple negative breast cancer (mTNBC) patients.
This pilot clinical trial will evaluate whether the SCOUT reflector can be used to tag abnormal lymph nodes in patients with breast cancer prior to chemotherapy for targeted removal at the time of surgery. The SCOUT localization system with the SAVI reflector is non-radioactive and completely internal so can be placed into an abnormal lymph node prior to chemotherapy treatment, which theoretically will allow easier identification and therefore more reliable targeting of the abnormal lymph node for surgical removal.
Phase 3 study to compare the efficacy of bimekizumab versus placebo in the treatment of subjects with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis.
This study seeks to understand the journey that patients eventually are diagnosed with vasculitis experience in the period prior to their formal diagnosis by a healthcare provider. Data elements of interest include average time from the onset of the first symptoms to the time a diagnosis of vasculitis is confirmed. Other aims include identifying factors associated with the time to diagnosis. These factors will be divided into: a) intrinsic factors, or so-called "patient-related factors", such as the type of vasculitis symptoms, patient demographics, socioeconomic status, patients' beliefs regarding the etiology of their symptoms, and other factors, and b) extrinsic factors, or "professional/health system factors", such as healthcare access, referral patterns, testing patterns, and other factors. Understanding such factors can guide future efforts to shorten delays in diagnosis and thereby improve outcomes. All analyses will be done for the population of patients with vasculitis as a whole and by individual types of vasculitis.
