There are about 11256 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.
This study aims to: - Evaluate the possible protective effect of pentoxifylline against oxaliplatin induced peripheral neuropathy and chemotherapy induced mucositis in patients with stage II and stage III colorectal cancer. This study will be a randomized placebo controlled parallel study.48 patients with colorectal cancer will be randomized to 2 groups: Group I (control group; n=24) which will receive 12 cycles of FOLFOX-6 regimen plus placebo tablets twice daily. Group II (Pentoxiphylline group; n=24) which will receive FOLFOX-6 regimen in addition to pentoxifylline 400 mg twice daily. Blood sample collection and biochemical assessment: - Malondialdehyde (MDA) as oxidative stress marker (colorimetry). - Tumor necrosis factor alfa (TNF-α) as pro inflammatory marker (ELISA). - Neurotensin (NT) as a potential marker for neuropathic pain (ELISA). - Citrulline as a biomarker for mucositis (ELISA). Clinical assessment of oxaliplatin induced neuropathy will be done through: The assessment of the severity of neuropathic pain through "Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form" at baseline and by the end of every two chemotherapy cycles. The implication of National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE, Version 5, 2017) for grading of neuropathy every 2 cycles. The use of Neurotoxicity- 12 item questionnaire score (Ntx-12) from the validated Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology Group at baseline and by the end of every two chemotherapy cycles). Mucositis will be assessed at baseline and by the end of every two chemotherapy cycles through the use of common terminology criteria for adverse events "CTCAE, version 5.00, 2017
The goal of this [ type of study: intervential study is to compare between different doses of magnesium to prevent cisplatin induced nephrotoxicity.] In 75 participant population with head and neck cancer recieved cisplatin it aims to answer are: • • optimal doses of magnesium as 3 groups each group take 1gm of magnesium then second group take 2gm of magnesium and finally third group take 3gm of magnesium Researchers will compare [ 3 groups ] to see if [ magnesium has effects in prevention cisplatin nephrotoxicity].
optimal management of postoperative pain is essentiel for better outcome in abdominal aortic surgery.the study aim to compare between analgesic effect of magnesium sulphate versus dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant to bupivacaine when injected intraperitoneal in abdominal aortic surgery.METHODS:50 patients undergoing abdominal aortic surgery are randemelly divided into 2 groups.(group D:patients received 20ml isobaric bupivacaine+1mic/kg dexemedetomidine completed to 5ml normal saline) Group M:patients received 20ml isobaric bupivacaine+5mg magnesuim sulphate .postoperative VAS,MAP will be recorded initially then every 2hours.
In this study, the hypothesis states that there is no significant difference between specified populations. In our case, the 3D printed patient-specific titanium mesh is thought to have the same effect and results in comparison with the computer-guided calvarial bone graft technique according to the related studies.
Randomized with (1:1) prospective, double-blind, controlled trial. Subjects will be randomized to receive S-PRG and the control group receives ICON.
The aim of this study was to compare the intraoperative and the postoperative analgesic effect of psoas compartment block (PCB) and supra-inguinal fascia iliaca compartment block (SFIB) in pediatric patients undergoing developmental dysplasia of the hip
Pregabalin and gabapentin are both GABA analogue and their mechanism of action is not fully understood. Both drugs when given as a pre-emptive analgesia for spinal surgery were found to reduce intra-and postoperative opioid requirements. Preoperative intramuscular injection of morphine could reduce the patients' pain during the percutaneous transformational endoscopic discectomy "PTED" surgery and improve the patients' satisfaction without affecting the surgical outcome. The efficacy of adding pregabalin or gabapentin to preoperative intramuscular morphine is not yet investigated. The current study aims to compare the analgesic effect of both drugs when given preoperatively with intramuscular morphine.

placenta previa is an obstetric complication which is associated with depression and anxiety. As little is known about the emotional reaction to the diagnosis of placenta previa/accrete, a study is badly needed to estimate the magnitude of this problem and its effects on the mother
the PowerScope appliance is found to be efficient for the treatment of class II malocclusion. Accordingly, it appears valuable to investigate the efficiency of skeletally anchored powerScope in the treatment of class III malocclusion
