There are about 515 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Tunisia. 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.
Risk prediction scores are important tools to support clinical decision-making for patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19). The objective of this paper was to validate the 4C mortality score, originally developed in the United Kingdom, for a tunisian population, and to examine its performance over time.
Patients with adrenal insufficiency are most often overdosed with hydrocortisone. To date, there is no reliable marker that can reflect the quality of hydrocortisone substitution. Salivary cortisol is a good reflection of free plasmatic cortisol. However, salivary contamination with the oral intake of hydrocortisone has been described. The aims of the study are to: - evaluate the frequency of salivary contamination by hydrocortisone taken in tablet form and determine its risk factors. - evaluate the quality of hydrocortisone substitution in patients with corticotrope deficiency.

The National Tunisian Registry of Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices is an observational, prospective and multicenter study aiming to assess the epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic profile of cardiac implantable electronic Devices in Tunisia. Cardiologists from both sectors (public and private) are participating in the study, with 26 investigational centers. Data is captured electronically by DACIMA Clinical Suite, according to FDA 21 CFR part 11 (Food and Drug Administration 21 Code of Federal Regulations part 11), HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) & ICH (International Conference on Harmonisation) requirements.
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of imsidolimab compared with placebo in adult subjects with generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP).

Acute Heart failure (AHF) is a common cause of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD). This association is frequently underestimated with regard to the difficulty of clinical diagnosis. The investigators expect that the application of the inferior vena cava collapsibility index (ΔIVC)could be useful in this issue.
Purpose: To assess the efficacy and safety of a single preoperative intra-lesional bevacizumab injection in primary pterygium. Methods: The investigators conducted a randomized controlled interventional study from January 2019 to December 2020. The study included a total of 60 patients (60 eyes) with primary pterygium. The investigators defined two groups of 30 patients each. Group A received an intralesional injection of bevacizumab (Avastin), one month before surgery (lesion excision and conjunctival autograft). Group B (control) had only the surgical treatment. Patients were followed up seven days (D7), one month (M1), three months (M3), and six months (M6) post-operatively. Pre-, per- and post-operatively, photographs of the lesions were taken, as well as a pathological examination. The main outcome measures were the change in functional discomfort following intralesional bevacizumab injection and pterygium recurrence. Recurrence was defined by fibrovascular tissue growth extending more than 1 mm across the limbus. Therapeutic success was defined as the absence of pterygium recurrence in M6.
