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.
Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is one of the most common surgical treatments for coronary artery disease. CABG has many beneficial outcomes for patients. However, there are diverse factors that hinder these positive outcomes. Depression, anxiety, and stress (DAS) are considered as important factors that hinder these outcomes. Depression is very common post CABG. Despite that high levels of depression, more than half of patients undergoing CBAG are not screened or treated well for depression. Depression has negative outcomes for patients undergoing CABG. Similarly, patients undergoing CABG complain from high levels of anxiety and stress in the pre and even in the post-operative period.Anxiety and stress might be manifested as impaired functional status, chest pain, and shortness of breath.· Furthermore, increased anxiety and stress is correlated with poorer quality of life and worse long-term psychological outcomes.It has been shown that the speed of recovery from acute cardiac events depends more on psychological factors rather than physiological ones. Therefore, it is imperative to have an appropriate management for these negative emotions to improve the outcomes of this major operation. Treatment options for these emotions include pharmacological and non-pharmacological. Listening to the holy Quran recital is one of the non-pharmacological treatment methods that were integrated to improve Coronary Heart Diseases Patient's DAS symptoms. Previous studies showed that listening to the holy Quran recital was effective in reducing ADS symptoms among this population and other populations including hemodialysis, pregnant women, and smokers. However, this effect has not been checked for patients undergoing CABG. Therefore, the purpose of this randomized control trial (RCT) is to check the effect of Holy Quran recital on ADS among patients undergoing CABG surgery
To compare the Alio device to blood draws.
The purpose of the comprehensive evaluation is to assess USAID supported Community Health and Nutrition (CHN) program's ability to effect change, the comprehensive evaluation will assess the effectiveness of CHN in influencing the knowledge, attitudes, practices, motivation, and support of health care providers, as well as the behavior change in pregnant and lactating women of reproductive age and their infants/young children thus supporting optimal maternal, infant and young child nutrition and health.
The purpose of this study to evaluate the clinical efficacy of guselkumab in fistulizing, perianal Crohn's disease and to assess the overall safety of guselkumab.
Sleep disturbances in athletes was found prevalent and affect their cognitive and physical abilities and increase the risk of injury. Moreover, studies showed also that a better sleep produces a better athletic performance. Therefore, it is important to find out management strategies that improve quality of sleep in this population. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a noninvasive brain stimulation technique that modulates cortical activity. tDCS has been conducted to improve wide range of neurological impairments including sleep. tDCS was used in improving the quality of sleep in older adults and in athletes. Both studies found improvement in some sleep indices.
This Phase III, randomized, two-arm, open-label, multicenter study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of giredestrant plus Phesgo compared with Phesgo after induction therapy with Phesgo plus taxane in participants with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive, estrogen receptor (ER)-positive advanced breast cancer (metastatic or locally advanced disease not amenable to curative treatment) who have not previously received a systemic non-hormonal anti-cancer therapy in the advanced setting.
This study aims at comparing the outcome of partial pulpotomy and full pulpotomy in the management of carious pulp exposures in permanent teeth with a clinical diagnosis of irreversible pulpits. The primary outcome is resolution of symptoms and the secondary outcome is clinical and radiographic normality at 1 and 2 years follow up. The study design will be a double blind randomized clinical trial.
Root canal therapy (RCT) is indicated once the pulp is diagnosed with irreversible pulpitis. Despite favorable success rate reported for RCT in vital cases, it is time consuming, and might increases fracture susceptibility of teeth. With the advancement of materials and better understanding of pulpal healing, vital pulp therapy is practiced as an alternative treatment with high success rate. The aim of this study is to explore the outcome, quality of life and patient satisfaction after full pulpotomy compared to RCT.
Falls are common in older adults and may lead to disability or even death. Therefore, exercise programs that focus on preventing falls by improving strength and balance are important to investigate in older adults. One of the home-based exercise programs that was found effective in reducing the risk of falling and the rate of subsequent falls in older adults is the Otago exercise program (OEP). The OEP is an individualized home based retraining program that works mainly on balance and lower extremity strength through several progressive resistive exercises. Therefore, this study aims to assess the effectiveness of this program on falls prevention and falls-related outcomes using a Randomized Controlled Trial in a sample of Jordanian older adults.
Bone Graft Cultivation is a two-stage procedure aiming at generating new bone tissue for grafting by periosteal elevation . The first stage is the insertion of space-occupying implant which is responsible for keeping periosteal elevation for a defined time to stimulate new bone formation. The second stage is the extraction of woven bone that has been formed together with the implant. A sufficient amount of biologically highly valuable woven bone may be produced and harvested for bone grafting using periosteal elevation method. The concept of using periosteal elevation to cultivate bone has never mentioned in orthopedic literature. Thus, this study aims to present an original experimental Interventional (Clinical Trial) on 18 skeletally immature patients. The purpose of this non-comparative study is to test, for the first time, possibility of generating bone tissue from iliac bone and to test the bioactivity of this new "Bone Graft Material" in fillings of losses of osseous substance from various origins, such as traumatic, infection, and benign tumoral causes. Study protocol: Participants will be randomly assigned preoperatively into three surgical groups depending on cultivation time: early-stage group, medium-stage group and late-stage group . The newly bone formed bone will undergo tissue processing, and then, bone volume/tissue volume ratio, osteoid volume/tissue volume ratio, and osteocyte count per high-power field will be analyzed. In addition to histological examination, micro-CT scanning and osteoinductive factors ( bone morphogenic protein (BMP2), Fibroblast growth factor-2(FGF2), Transforming Growth Factor(TGFB1), and Insulin-like growth factor(IGF1)) assessment will be done as well
