There are about 483 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Jordan. 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.
People with multiple sclerosis (MS) need exercise training programs throughout their life in order to prevent secondary complications of the disease. Coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) forced people with chronic disorders to stay at home in order to prevent the transmission of the virus. Therefore, people with MS now are facing a new challenge in going outside their home to perform their rehabilitation sessions. One of the solutions to keep them exercising is a home-based exercise program and one of the home exercise programs that are well validated in older adults is the Otago exercise program (OEP). Investigators suggest that the balance would improve and fall incidences would reduce using the OEP in people with MS compared to health awareness videos only. 50 participants with confirmed diagnosis of MS will be recruited in both groups. Using a randomized controlled trial this study aims to examine the effectiveness of the OEP compared to a control group that gets health awareness videos only on falls and falls-related factors in people with MS.

A retrospective study at a tertiary university hospital to determine the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the emergency surgery practice in the hospital.
The study , observe the effect of releasing the Tourniquet in total knee replacement surgery before closure in comparison with releasing it after wound closure The effect was assessed by Hb drop post operative and Hematoma formation ( measured by ultrasound ) as well as the wound complication
Airway management in severely obese patients remains a challenging issue for anesthetists and may lead to life-threatening situations. Awake Fiber-Optic Bronchoscopy Intubation (FOBI) technique is considered as the gold standard when a difficult airway is anticipated to secure the airway and to facilitate the surgery. FOBI is usually done in supine position, while (in conscious patients) lateral position is the most recommended position to keep the upper airway patent. This prospective clinical trial study will test whether awake FOBI in Lateral position will provide a safe profile or a significant advantage over FOBI in supine position, in morbidly obese patients undergoing elective bariatric surgery.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of low-pressure pneumoperitoneum on post operative pain and inflammation in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy by comparing it to standard practice.
There is a controversy regarding the effect of the two Body Mass Index (BMI) extremes on the oncological outcome of rectal cancer. The obesity paradox appears to exist in rectal cancer patients treated with nCRT and surgery, as it was associated with significantly higher rates of pathological complete response and R0 resection. Underweight patients were at higher risk for anastomotic leak and R1 resection.
to find out whether variations in the fasting blood glucose in early pregnancy affect the fetomaternal outcome
Induced sputum samples were obtained from 27 asthmatic patients and 27 non-asthmatic subjects. Sequencing of the V4 region of 16S rRNA gene using Illumina MiSeq was performed, followed by analysis of alpha and beta diversity.
