There are about 477 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.
A significant percentage of patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) or mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF) have iron deficiency who are symptomatic. This is independently associated with bad quality of life, low functional capacity, lower quality of, life and increased mortality. The prevalence of iron deficiency in HFrEF and HFmrEF patients in Jordan has not been studied in the past.
A previous study (MINTOR 1) found that 43% of ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients in Jordan had a triggering events. Fifteen years later, with changing demographics and in the post covid-19 time, we believe that triggered acute myocardial infarction might have changed in incidence and nature of the triggering events.
Current Knowledge: Countless studies have been conducted to study the relationship between OSA and AF, and a significant association has been established between both diseases, owing to the numerous shared risk factors and a wide variety of pathophysiological changes resulting from both diseases being relevant to each other. Our study inspects this relationship from a cardiovascular standpoint, examining the prevalence of OSA in existing AF patients, which could be interpreted as AF being a risk factor for OSA development.
Thymus vulgaris could potentially serve as a safer alternative to stimulant drugs for enhancing memory among university students. Furthermore, Thymus vulgaris may offer additional benefits in terms of reducing anxiety, depression, and improving sleep quality. However, it should be noted that the current research on the effects of orally administered Thymus vulgaris on the brain and nervous system is limited, and further studies are required to fully explore its potential advantages. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of oral Thymus vulgaris on memory performance, anxiety, depression, and sleep quality in university students.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is highly prevalent in the general population and is associated with multiple adverse cardiovascular consequences. Screening for OSA is recommended in those with typical symptoms, such as daytime sleepiness, loud snoring, or abrupt awakenings with gasping or choking. Patients admitted to the general medical wards with these symptoms will be evaluated for the possibility of having OSA.
Patients admitted to the hospital with acute illness may have a wide spectrum of thyroid function abnormalities. It is largely unknown whether such aberrations are temporary or persist for a long time, and whether they impact prognosis of such patients.
Practical blood flow restriction (PBFR) is a new technique of reducing the venous return using a band with a pressure that is applied using a perceived pressure scale. The studies that investigate the acute effect of using PBFR and regular high intensity exercises on the level of growth hormone (GH) and blood lactate (BL) after lower extremity training in collegiate athletes are scarce.
The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between placing specific retraction cord for different periods of time and the post-operative gingival margin level in humans. Determining the amount of immediate reversible and delayed irreversible gingival recession (vertical gingival retraction) that might happen after placing a retraction cord around a natural tooth in healthy humans. It also aims to investigate the impact of mechanical and chemo-mechanical gingival retraction on periodontal health.
Aims: The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to assess and compare the post operative pain, swelling and quality of life after endodontic microsurgery using either conventional osteotomy or piezoelectric osteotomy . The PICO question that will be used is Does endodontic microsurgery using piezoelectric osteotomy have similar clinical performance in terms of post operative pain and swelling to that of endodontic microsurgery using conventional hand-piece osteotomy. Material and methods: based on solid inclusion criteria , a total of 44 patients in need of endodontic microsurgery will be randomly distributed into two groups (n=22) according to the osteotomy technique: conventional and piezoelectric osteotomy. A standardized microsurgical technique will be employed. After the microsurgery procedure, a pain questionnaire that contain visual analogue scale will be given to each patient to evaluate the pain incidence and intensity at 5 time intervals, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 96 hours and 120 hours. The patients will be recalled as well, at days 2 and 7 to evaluate the swelling. Statistical analysis will be performed using chi-square test and linear regression analysis.
A Phase I First-in-Human, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study in Healthy Adult Volunteers to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics after Single Oral Dose of LPX-TI641.
