There are about 11049 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Egypt. 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.
Diaphragmatic dysfunction can be detected as a decrease in forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume at 1 s (FEV1) on spirometry or as lower diaphragmatic excursion (DE) on US, the latter having become the gold standard in thoracic assessment.
The Artisan lens (Artisan Aphakic, Ophtec BV) is an iris- claw lens designed for implantation in children with insufficient capsular support. In spite of less surgical manipulations and a relatively shorter operation time, the procedure carries the risk of corneal endothelial cell loss or dis-enclavation, particularly in children. However, most of the studies that studied iris-claw lenses in aphakic children were retrospective evaluated only a single technique; either anterior or retropupillary fixation, or comparable to other techniques of fixation. Thus the aim of this work is to prospectively compare the 2 techniques of iris-claw lens implantation and their effects on central endothelial cell density, the anatomical and visual outcome, as well as the complications' rate.
Azoospermia, the absence of sperm in the ejaculate, affects approximately 1% of males and 15% of infertile men. Non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) accounts for 60% of azoospermic patients, who rely solely on testicular sperm extraction (TESE) surgery for sperm harvesting. While conventional TESE (cTESE) and microdissection TESE (mTESE) are preferred methods, the lack of predictive biomarkers for successful sperm retrieval (SR) renders treatment unnecessary for many NOA males. However, research suggests that anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) and anogenital distance (AGD) may serve as predictors of positive SR at mTESE in NOA males. AGD, a marker of fetal androgen disruption and adult outcomes, may also assess male reproductive potential by predicting normal genital growth and sperm creation. A cross-sectional study found a positive correlation between AGD and total sperm count, concentration, and motility in infertile men aged 25-38, providing valuable prognostic insights for azoospermic men.
rotator cuff tears are one of the most common shoulder issues , affecting 20.7% of the general population .
Arthroscopic surgery is the preferred method to fix a Bankart lesion (tears in the labrum) and has better patient outcomes. It's important to assess any bone loss in the shoulder socket before surgery for a successful outcome. Using suture anchors to reattach the torn tissue is advantageous because it avoids going through the back of the shoulder. The article describes a specific technique for tying the sutures and anchor placement to minimize nerve and artery damage. Design of the suture anchor and how the suture is placed can affect its strength. Using two sutures per anchor (double-loaded) might be just as strong as using three anchors with one suture each (single-loaded), which is more common. This could save cost and bone but needs further study. The study proposes a new surgical technique using double-loaded anchors with more sutures to see if it offers similar strength while reducing implant use.
included patients were divided into 4 groups and each group received a mode of post cesarian section analgesia and pain was assessed by visual analogue scale at rest and movement. 1. st group epidural analgesia 2. nd group Quadratus lumborum type 2 3. rd group Quadratus lumborum type 3 4. th group Quadratus lumborum type (2+3)
As most woman experience agonizing pain throughout vaginal labor. Adjuvants were added to intrathecal bupivacaine aiming to improve the quality of analgesia. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and outcome of intrathecal dexmedetomidine and fentanyl in controlling pain during delivery.
Aim of the work is to assess the prevalence of vitamin A deficiency in critically ill children with sepsis and the association between vitamin A deficiency and clinical outcomes
Inguinal hernia surgery is one of the most common surgical procedures in early infancy. Preoperative anxiety remains a vexing issue, and it exists in nearly 50% of pediatric patients
The aim of this observational study was to investigate the effect of the menstrual cycle on the manual dexterity of female dentists. This study was conducted to answer the following question: - Is there any effect of the menstrual cycle on the manual dexterity of female dentists?
