There are about 1320 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Saudi Arabia. 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.
In this online survey conducted suing the YouGov consumer insights panel, the primary aims of this study are to provide for the first time an estimate of consumer awareness regarding wholegrains; their definitions and knowledge of potential benefits in the Saudi Arabia adult population and the he estimated consumption amongst Saudi consumers. Secondary Objectives are to assess the breakfast habit, oat consumption & health concerns amongst Saudi consumers; identify socio-demographic and consumer characteristics associated with breakfast consumption, the types of foods consumed at breakfast, and fill gaps in knowledge regarding breakfast eating habits, commonly consumed breakfast foods.
We sought to comprehend the rates and causes of unplanned hospital readmission within 60 days following oral cancer surgery
Partial restriction of blood flow to working muscles during exercise is proven to increase muscle mass and strength even with low-intensity of exercise. Blood Flow Restriction Training (BFRT) is also beneficial to improve the maximum rate of oxygen consumption (VO2max), bone health, and vascular health. Recent studies focus on its effects beyond the musculoskeletal system. Post-exercise hypotension is a known acute physiological response that happens after intense exercise. Early studies demonstrated BFRT might amplify the acute hypotensive effects with low intensity of exercise. However, it's not clear what type of exercise would help to lower blood pressure when it is combined with BFRT.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) [omega-3] as an adjunctive treatment to scaling and root planing for menopausal women with periodontitis versus scaling and root alone as a non- surgical treatment . . The main question it aims to answer is: • to investigate the effect of systemic administration of Omega-3 fatty acids in addition to SRP on clinical periodontal parameters and GCF levels of osteocalcin and AST in menopausal women. Participants will given * a soft gelatin capsules containing PUFAs to be consumed directly once daily for 12 months along with non-surgical treatment (group2) ** a soft gelatin capsules containing olive oil to be consumed directly once daily for 12 months along with non-surgical treatment (group1) Researchers will compare group 1 to group 2 to see if PUFAs has an effect on clinical periodontal parameters and GCF levels of osteocalcin and AST in menopausal women. .
This study investigated the effects of Pilates exercises on lower limb muscle strength, functional capacity, and quality of life in children with burn injuries. In a twelve-week randomized clinical trial involving 60 children, those who received Pilates exercises in addition to traditional physical therapy showed significant improvements in muscle strength, functional capacity, and overall quality of life compared to those who received traditional therapy alone. The findings suggest that incorporating Pilates exercises into rehabilitation programs may enhance outcomes for children recovering from burn injuries.
The goal of this randomised control study is to compare kinesiotaping and pressue garments in secondary upper extremity lymphedema following microsurgical breast reconstruction after severe chest burns. The primary objective of this study was to compare the effects of kinesiotaping and pressure garments on limb circumference, handgrip strength, shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI), and limb circumference in patients with lymphedema following breast reconstruction due to chest burns. The participants were randomly assigned to one of two groups: the kinesiotaping group (n = 28) and the pressure garments group (n = 28). To perform taping of the chest in the kinesiotaping group, the patient was asked to stand upright with the affected shoulder rotated externally. Five straps of the fan-shaped tape were extended to the chest toward the affected axilla with 15% to 20% tension, and the anchor was positioned without tension in the anterior axilla on the sound side. In the pressure garment group, the participant's skin was washed and dried before applying the PG. The Premium Lymphedema Gradient Garment (Jobskin, Long Eaton, England) was used to apply PGs. This garment has a pressure gradient built into it, applying between 20 and 60 mm Hg for at least 15 to 18 hours each day for three weeks.
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), also known as median mononeuropathy, occurs when the median nerve is squeezed or compressed as it travels through the carpal tunnel at the wrist. It is common in the age group of 40-60 years. The main aim of the study was to compare the effectiveness of carpal ligament self-myofascial stretching over conventional physical therapy on reducing pain and improving function in patients with stage I and II CTS-thirty-six subjects with stage I and II (mild) CTS were recruited. Thirty-six subjects who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to the experimental group and control group, with 18 patients in each group. The experimental group received carpal ligament self-myofascial stretching along with conventional physical therapy, while the control group received traditional physical therapy alone. The duration of the treatment was six weeks. The outcome measures used were the Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire and the Visual Analogue Scale.
Degenerative meniscal tears are a common cause of osteoarthritis commonly diagnosed in football players and are considered a major risk factor for the development of knee osteoarthritis. This study aimed to investigate the Clinical and functional effects of kinesiotaping and physiotherapy in grade 2 osteoarthritis following degenerative meniscal tears in football players.
Background: Ageing is frequently accompanied by physiological changes that might result in a deterioration in physical and cognitive abilities, which frequently leads to institutionalization or the loss of autonomy. Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is an intermediate state between normal cognitive aging and early dementia, the optimal period to intervene with preventive strategies and early treatments. Thus, the current study intends to investigate the effects of aerobic and computer-based cognitive training on age-related cognitive decline. Methods: This is a single-blinded, randomized controlled trial. Elderly patients with mild cognitive impairment (n = 60) will be randomized to 2 arms and treated for 12 weeks: arm 1 (aerobic exercise and computerized cognitive training) and arm 2 (Placebo; will not receive any intervention). Outcome measure used were Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) test, Barthel Index (BI) and short form survey-12 (SF-12). Statistical Analysis: To compare the baseline characteristics and outcome variables between the two groups, independent t-tests was employed. A two-way repeated measures ANOVA was utilized to determine the interaction effect of time (baseline, post-treatment, and follow-up) and group (intervention vs. control) on the outcome measures.
An observational cross-sectional study will be conducted on 90 female students (right dominant) aged 19-26 years at Jazan University, they will have 40 points or more on Smartphone Addiction Proneness Scale (SAPS) and will be divided into three groups (30 students for each): Group I (BMI<25kg/m2), Group II (BMI 25-30kg/m2), and Group III (BMI >30 kg/m2). Pain pressure thresholds were measured using a pressure gauge algometer (PGA) over trigger points in the neck muscles.
