NCT ID: NCT05581264 Completed - Diabetes Mellitus Clinical Trials

Diabetes Self-Management Educational Program

DSMEP
Start date: September 28, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Diabetes mellitus is the third most prevalent chronic disease globally. It is a metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood glucose because of impaired insulin production, reduced insulin effectiveness, or both. It is a major contributor to physical disability and impaired quality of life. Diabetes Self-Management programs help to control blood glucose, reduce hospitalization, and increase compliance; however, the program is underutilized in primary care settings globally, due to cognitive, financial, behavioral, and emotional factors. Addressing the increasing trend in diabetes, Jordan is currently in need of a diabetes self-management program that promotes patient empowerment and overall well-being. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a diabetes self-management education program for patients with type 2 diabetes in improving self-care, medication adherence, illness perception, health-related quality of life, and glycemic control (HbA1c level). This study is a two-arm randomized controlled trial study of patients with type 2 diabetes attending two outpatients' diabetes clinic settings in Jordan. The education program and also usual medical care were applied to the intervention group, only usual medical care was applied to the control group.

NCT ID: NCT05567263 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Dental Restorations, Permanent

Post-operative Sensitivity of a Self-adhesive Restorative Material

Start date: January 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Adhesively restoring teeth using a resin-based composite and a modern dental adhesive is now considered a reliable, predictable, and durable procedure. However, adhering resin-based composite in conditions of suboptimal field control or complex cavity configurations remains challenging. In addition, the continuing discussions on the clinical use of dental amalgam and the feasibility of a phase out of the use of dental amalgam in the long term has become a central concern for restorative dentistry and has led to strong efforts to develop a substitute material for amalgam. With the goal of clinically shorter application times and lower technique sensitivity, the development of an advanced self-adhesive restorative tooth-colored restorative materials (ASAR) that no longer need pre-treatment with a separate adhesive have been under investigation. The aim of this study is to assess the post-operative sensitivity following restoration of teeth using a self-adhesive tooth-colored restorative material and to assess its clinical performance in comparison with conventional resin-based composite in posterior restorations

NCT ID: NCT05563818 Completed - Schizophrenia Clinical Trials

Using Speech to Monitor Symptom Severity in Arabic Speaking Patients With Schizophrenia

Start date: November 9, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Brief Summary: Definition: A short description of the clinical study, including a brief statement of the clinical study's hypothesis, written in language intended for the lay public. Limit: 5000 characters. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between speech features and severity of positive and negative clinical symptoms in Arabic speaking patients with schizophrenia. Individuals will be invited to participate in this study because (1) they have a confirmed clinical diagnosis of schizophrenia; (2) they plan to receive routine clinical care for schizophrenia at one of the four participating sites; (3) they speak Arabic as a first language. Participants must be between the ages of 18-65 years. Participation will involve seven visits consisting of one baseline visit and six monthly follow-up visits. All participants will continue to receive routine clinical care. Participation in this research will involve providing speech samples using standardized tasks collected using an electronic device. Additionally, study team members will assess positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia using validated questionnaires.

NCT ID: NCT05562817 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infections

The Epidemiology , Health and Economic Burden of RSV Amongst Hospitalized Children Under 5 Years of Age in Jordan

RSV-JO
Start date: November 20, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

RSV has a global healthcare burden and vaccine in the main preventive measure. There are no recent published studies that have evaluated the burden of RSV infections in the Middle East in term of incidence at a national level, complication rates, mortality rates, hospitalizations, secondary infections, or the direct and indirect costs. Most studies have been limited to identifying genotypes or calculating the incidence in selected sites. In order to facilitate the introduction of an effective preventive measure for control of RSV infections, it is essential at a national and regional levels to assess the burden of disease, molecular epidemiology, and economic burden based on direct and indirect costs of RSV infections.

NCT ID: NCT05542394 Completed - Clinical trials for Plasma Levels of Different Curcuminoids Preparations

Determination of Pharmacokinetics of Different Curcuminoids Preparations: Pilot Study

Start date: September 20, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This pilot study aims to investigate the pharmacokinetics of a novel curcuminoid preparation with suggested high bioavailability due to its solubility in water, compared to two standard hydrophobic formulations. The findings of this study will help the health care providers and community to select suitable formulation.

NCT ID: NCT05539742 Completed - Lipemia Clinical Trials

Comparison of the Effect of MCFA and LCFA on Postprandial Appetite and Lipemia

Start date: June 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The main objective is to investigate if foods high in coconut oil (MCFA) or palm oil (LCFA) have different impacts on postprandial blood lipid levels and appetite via a visual analog scale (VAS).

NCT ID: NCT05530564 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

Effect of Low-pressure Pneumoperitoneum on Pain and Inflammation in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

Start date: January 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

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.
