There are about 3285 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Pakistan. 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.
Randomized controlled trial will be conducted after getting informed consent form from each study participant meeting inclusion criteria (n=70, 35 control group +35 intervention group, 3-8years of age). After consumer acceptance against various attributes of aglutenic cupcake, the product will be provided in polyethylene bags containing 28 cupcakes (35gm by weight/cupcake, 2 cupcakes for each day) providing approximately 20% daily value (DV) of energy. Cupcakes of equal weight and size made with rice flour (mostly used recipe) will be provided to the control group. Further product will be provided on follow-up visits. The compliance to a gluten free diet GFD and supplemented product will be confirmed by a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ).
All patients of age 6 month to 12 years with inguinal hernia were included in study. Data was collected on detailed proforma regarding age, sex, side ,operative time, cosmesis , and postoperative complications

If Vitamin D supplementation has any impact on fetal outcomes.
Introduction Patients with rectal prolapse are treated with injection sclerotherapy, which is the most often used first-line surgical technique. Injection sclerotherapy has a success rate of 90-100% in youngsters, according to certain studies. Objective To compare the outcome of injection sclerotherapy using 5% Phenol in almond oil, 15% hypertonic saline and 50% dextrose water in the treatment of rectal prolapse in children.
USG guided injections to relieve carpal tunnel syndrome with dextrose water or steroid or PRP
Many patients suffer from dental anxiety and don't go to dentists for regular checkups. This can lead to the initiation and progression of dental caries, which, if not controlled at the right time, can lead to the loss of the tooth itself. Many forms of distraction have been used to overcome this; music is also one of them. The main objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of binaural beats and 432 Hz music in reducing preoperative dental unease and anxiety among adult patients undergoing root canal treatment in a dental teaching hospital. The null hypothesis is that both binaural beats and 432 Hz-frequency music are not effective in reducing preoperative dental anxiety among patients undergoing routine endodontic therapy in a dental teaching hospital. A total of three groups will be a part of this study, with a total sample size of 99 participants (33 participants in each group). Group A will listen to 432 Hz music for 10 minutes before the procedure, Group B will listen to binaural beats for 10 minutes before the procedure; and Group C (active control group) will listen to white noise for 10 minutes before the procedure. The Visual Analog Scale for Anxiety will be used to assess the anxiety levels before local anesthesia administration, after local anesthesia administration, and 10 minutes after listening to sounds. Then root canal treatment will be completed as a routine procedure.
Control of bleeding is very important during endoscopic sinus surgery. Saline heated up to 50°C causes dilatation of vessels and edema without nasal mucosa necrosis. It also promotes the clotting cascade so helps in having a bloodless procedure. This randomized controlled trial was conducted on 60 patients divided into two groups (30 each). Group A was the interventional group in which patients were irrigated with saline of 50°C during surgery. Group B was the control group where room temperature saline was used. Operative field was assessed using the Boezaart score, duration of surgery and bleeding in ml. KEY WORDS: - Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) - Endoscopic sinus surgery - Boezaart score
this study will be conducted involving patients of all genders between the ages of 20 and 60 years who will undergo elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy for uncomplicated symptomatic gallstone disease. The study will be conducted in Department of West Surgical Ward, Mayo Hospital, Lahore, after receiving approval from the hospital's Ethical Committee. Patients having other co-morbid conditions, pregnant patients, and those undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy converted to open surgery will be excluded from the study. LFTs and other baseline investigations will be done routinely of every patient. Written informed consent will be obtained from all the patient. Patients will be divided into two groups with 30 patients in each group. Group A will consist of patient in whom ERAS protocol will be implemented and Group B in whom ERAS protocol will not be implemented.
Background and Objectives To compare the efficacy of gel foam-soaked pyodine with a single topical application of clotrimazole ointment. Subjects and Methods This randomized controlled trial will include 90 patients presenting to ENT OPD with complaints of earache, watery ear discharge, pruritis, and ear blockage and will be clinically diagnosed as a case of otomycosis on otoscopy. The external auditory canal of the patient will be cleared of fungal debris via suction before treatment In Group A ear canal will be filled with 1% clotrimazole ointment by using an IV catheter and syringe and in Group B pyodine-soaked gel foam will be placed in the external auditory canal. The patients will be followed up on post-treatment days 7 and 14.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Kangaroo Mother care can have effect on oxidative stress in premature neonates. It will also learn about the bonding between mother and her premature infant. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does Kangaroo mother care lower the biomarker of oxidative stress in premature neonates? - Is Kangaroo mother care associated with mother-infant bonding? Researchers will compare Kangaroo mother care to Conventional incubator care to see if Kangaroo mother care works to have effect on oxidative stress. Participants will be: - given Kangaroo mother care on third day of life or standard incubator care for one hour - Urine sample for oxidative stress biomarker will be collected via noninvasive method before and after Kangaroo mother care or conventional incubator care from premature neonates. - Mother-infant bonding scale will be filled by mothers of enrolled premature infants before and after kangaroo mother care and conventional incubator care
