There are about 253 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Iraq. 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 aim of this study protocol is to describe the rationale and methodology for evaluating the effect of using therapeutic exercises and ultrasound in the rehabilitation of partially injured hamstring muscles on elite football players.
Background: One of the most frequent surgical operations in dentistry is the surgical extraction of the impacted mandibular third molar, which is accompanied by a sequelae of swelling, trismus, and pain. Various techniques have been employed to either prevent or reduce these postoperative outcomes. To the best of our knowledge, few clinical researchers have investigated the effect of local application of Alvogyl paste and Chlorhexidine gel, in the management of pain, facial swelling, and trismus resulting from lower third molar surgical extraction. Aim of the study: The study was meant to compare the effects of 0.2% chlorhexidine gel and Alvogyl paste on the reduction of the inflammatory reaction caused by the surgical extraction of the impacted mandibular third molar, which includes pain, facial swelling, and trismus.
Periodontitis is a destructive inflammatory disease of tooth supporting tissues and it adversely affects oral and general health as well as lowering the quality of life. Nonsurgical periodontal therapy is a gold standard technique for treating mild to moderate periodontitis and it was reported to significantly improve oral health related quality of life.
Aim To compare between orthodontic miniscrews coated and uncoated with CHX- HMP NP nanoparticles.
This clinical trial compares the effectiveness of a myofunctional appliance that uses a clear and modified twin block appliance with an expander made from 2mm biocompatible polyethylene terephthalate modified with Glycol thermoplastic material with a conventional twin block appliance with an expander. The trial will be conducted on adolescent patients with class II division 1.
prospective study measuring the outcome of continuous radio frequency 60 degree on lateral epicondylitis not responding to traditional ultrasound guided injection
In this study, we aim to explore the beneficial effect of early short-term (two weeks), self-titrated, basal-only insulin therapy on the degree of glycemic control over 1-year follow through a prospective cohort.
The management of thoracic outlet syndrome can be either surgical or nonsurgical. Fewer than 20% of patients experience benefits from nonsurgical treatments. Regarding the surgical approach, there's considerable debate about whether to resect the first rib or if a scalenectomy alone suffices. Recently, many experts have concurred on the resection of the first rib. Based on our observations, avulsion of the first rib results in improved outcomes and reduced post-operative pain compared to simple resection. Thus, this study aims to compare the outcomes of first rib resection versus its avulsion in patients with thoracic outlet syndrome.
Orthodontic treatment is an elective procedure to improve the patient's dentofacial appearance. The complex design of fixed appliances provides a platform that leads to increased plaque accumulation around orthodontic brackets. So, the risk to develop demineralization area adjacent to orthodontic brackets is a major barrier in achieving this goal. Oral hygiene is greatly complicated following the placement of fixed orthodontic Appliances. Molar tube in place are considered for nearly all patients experiencing fixed orthodontic therapy over the whole treatment period, which normally lasts 1.5 to 2 years. To the best of the authors' knowledge, the application and antimicrobial efficacy of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles coating on orthodontic molar tube material has not been integrated clinically. White spot lesions during orthodontic treatment have a documented etiology. Briefly, the accumulation of plaque and food around brackets, bands, wires, and other attachments caused decreased pH and increased S. mutans colonization, which led to the possibility of clinical demineralization. The aims of study are to assess the antimicrobial effect of nanoparticle coated stainless steel orthodontic molar tube material (OMT) with zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles in relative to uncoated orthodontic molar tube (UOMT) against the streptococcus. mutans& lactobacllius bacteria that cause white spot lesion around the fixed orthodontic appliance. .
Prediabetes, characterized by elevated HbA1c levels, is a common precursor to type 2 diabetes mellitus. Recent studies have suggested a potential link between prediabetes and nonspecific back pain. This randomized controlled trial aimed to assess whether reducing HbA1c levels through lifestyle interventions and, along with the correction of vitamin D and magnesium, can alleviate nonspecific back pain in prediabetic patients.
