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.
The purpose of this multicenter randomized study is to compare efficacy and safety of dasatinib 50 mg once daily and dasatinib 100 mg once daily in patients with early chronic phase (CP) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML)
Restoration of endodontically treated teeth requires a means to protect the cusps from the wedging forces of occlusion. When there is extensive loss of tooth structure, cuspal coverage is warranted. Usually this is in the form of indirect restoration. Traditionally, full coverage crowns have been used which would require further removal of sound tooth structure. Recently, adhesive alternatives have been introduced which allow for conservation of tooth structure. Different materials can be used for this purpose. The evidence on the long-term survival of these materials is scarce. This study aims to investigate the short and medium-long term survival rate of these prostheses.
This study is a randomized controlled trial involving 127 children ages between 4 and 5 years to investigate the efficacy of Casein Phosphopeptide-Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (CPP-ACP) in reducing Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) bacteria, and compare that with fluoride alone, or combined use of fluoride and CPP-ACP over a 6 month period using Saliva Check Mutans kits to detect Mutans Streptococci (MS). It is expected that all used anti-cariogenic agents will have the ability to reduce the S. mutans level in different values.
This study is a randomized controlled trial involving 118 children ages between 4 and 5 years to assess the remineralization effect of Casein Phosphopeptide-Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (CPP-ACP) on white spot lesions in primary teeth using Quantitative Light-induced Fluorescence (QLF) system, and compare that with fluoride alone or combined use of fluoride and CPP-ACP.
Many deep carious teeth are treated unnecessarily by root canal therapy, while with using current techniques and advances in compatible dental materials in addition to better understanding of biological response of the dental pulp, many can be treated conservatively via vital pulp therapy procedures.
The purpose of this observational study was to assess the safety and efficacy of generic mycophenolate mofetil in de novo renal transplant patients in Jordan where no visits or intervention(s) additional to the daily practice were performed.
The study will look at the cardiovascular risk factors as they arise, as well at the need for further revascularization after at least 10 years of coronary revascularization in Middle Eastern patients. The PI will overlook the whole process. Dr Ahmad Tamari, the assistant to the PI will asses this whole process of data collection, management and manuscript drafting.
Symptomatic hypotension during (or immediately following) hemodialysis complicates 5 to 30 percent of all dialysis treatments and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) and European Best Practice Guidelines define intradialytic hypotension as the presence of a decrease in systolic blood pressure ≥20 mmHg or a decrease in mean arterial pressure by 10 mmHg, providing the decrease in blood pressure is associated with clinical events and need for nursing interventions. Common causes of intradialytic hypotension include excessive or rapid ultrafiltration, high blood flow during dialysis, CHF, taking the antihypertensive medications prior to HD, and others. One of the possible reasons that is surprisingly has not been approached worldwide for intra-dialytic hypotension could be more prevalent adrenal insufficiency in ESRD patients or a delay in the appropriate rise of endogenous serum cortisol given hemodialysis is considered by all means a stressful condition to the body. Investigators will assess first the prevalence of intradialytic hypotension at JUH dialysis unit. Investigators will screen patients who developed intradialytic hypotension for adrenal insufficiency by ordering random am cortisol. Then Investigators will give IV Hydrocortisone 100 mg prior to HD to patients who developed intra-dialytic hypotension and monitor their BP response during the HD treatments for 3 HD sessions (1 week, 3 HD sessions). After that, the same patients will receive 100 mg normal saline for 3 HD sessions. Both the administrator and the patient will be blinded for the interventions.
This is a multicenter, international, double-blind randomized Phase III study to evaluate the pathological complete response (pCR) according to Chevalier classification between Fulvestrant® and the combination of Fulvestrant® plus Palbociclib as neoadjuvant therapy of hormone-sensitive patients with operable luminal breast cancer. Eligible patients will be assessed upfront using the OncotypeDX® molecular test (Recurrence Score <31).
This study investigates the effect of ambulation (walking) during first stage of labour on maternal and neonatal outcomes. In the intervention group women will be encouraged to ambulate and women in the control group will receive usual maternity care.
