This study follows 200 adults with severe chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps who are starting tezepelumab as part of their routine care. Researchers will track changes in symptoms and quality of life over up to two years using patient questionnaires. The goal is to see how well t…

This study tests a new nasal spray for adults with chronic sinusitis. The spray turns into a gel inside the nose and releases three active ingredients: stem cell exosomes to help repair the nasal lining, an antihistamine to reduce inflammation, and an antiviral agent. The goal is…

This early-stage trial tests a nasal spray for adults with chronic sinusitis (without polyps). The spray contains stem cell exosomes to heal the nose lining, an antibiotic to kill bacteria, and an enzyme to break up thick mucus. 108 participants will use the spray twice daily for…

This early-stage study tests a new drug called cizutamig in about 20 adults with IgE-mediated allergies, including food allergies. The main goal is to see if the drug can safely lower IgE levels, which are antibodies that trigger allergic reactions. Researchers will also monitor …

This phase 3 trial tests a gel containing povidone-iodine and budesonide that is placed inside the sinuses right after endoscopic sinus surgery. The goal is to see if it reduces inflammation and scarring better than a placebo gel. The study will involve 180 adults with chronic rh…

This study tests whether a new medicine called Fexuprazan (Fexuclue) can prevent stomach ulcers caused by NSAID painkillers like ibuprofen. About 360 adults with joint or muscle pain who need daily NSAIDs will take either Fexuprazan or an older drug (Lansoprazole) for 24 weeks. T…

This study compares two types of virtual reality (VR) during common ear, nose, and throat (ENT) procedures. One group will watch calming scenery, while the other plays an interactive puzzle game. Researchers want to see which better reduces pain and anxiety. The study will includ…

This study tests whether applying bee venom to the face using ultrasound can ease chronic sinusitis symptoms. Thirty adults with sinusitis will either get bee venom phonophoresis or standard care (decongestants and saline rinses). Researchers will measure changes in symptom sever…

This study looks at whether watching cartoons or listening to breath-synchronized interactive stories can help children aged 6-9 feel less afraid and more comfortable while using a nebulizer for breathing medication. About 96 children with respiratory conditions will be randomly …

This early-phase trial will test four orthobiologic treatments—PRP, bone marrow concentrate, hyaluronic acid, and nanofat—in 300 adults with various muscle, joint, tendon, or bone conditions. The goal is to see if these natural substances can reduce pain and improve joint functio…

This study tests if applying cold (cryotherapy) to the wrist before a blood draw from the artery can reduce pain. It involves 258 adults with chronic respiratory diseases who need this test. The goal is to find a simple, drug-free way to make the procedure less painful.

This study compares two ways to give steroid medicine to people with chronic sinusitis who have lost their sense of smell due to blocked nasal passages. One group will get standard steroid spray, while the other gets steroid drops placed directly where smell happens. The goal is …

This study looks at whether a mobile app can help people with common pains (neck, shoulder, back, or knee) do their prescribed home exercises more regularly. About 30 adults will be split into two groups: one using the app and one doing traditional exercises. The goal is to see i…

This study tests if a nebulized steroid (budesonide) delivered via the NasoNeb device is safe and effective for chronic rhinosinusitis. 50 adults with the condition will be randomly assigned to receive either nebulized budesonide or a standard steroid lavage. The main goal is to …

This study tests whether adding magnesium sulfate or lidocaine to a standard sedative (dexmedetomidine) better prevents coughing after functional endoscopic sinus surgery. Coughing after this surgery can cause bleeding and slow recovery. About 102 adults will be randomly assigned…

This study will collect and analyze nasal tissue from 230 Greek patients with chronic sinusitis (with or without nasal polyps) to identify different inflammation patterns, called endotypes. By understanding these patterns, researchers hope to better match patients with the most e…

This study aims to translate and adapt a widely used questionnaire for musculoskeletal problems into Urdu. Researchers will enroll 110 Urdu-speaking adults, including patients with muscle or joint issues and healthy volunteers. The goal is to create a validated tool to measure sy…

This study looks at how patients feel when reading their own medical notes. Some will read the original doctor's note, others will read a simpler version written by artificial intelligence. Researchers want to see if the AI summary changes how much patients trust their doctor or …

This study looks at chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps, a condition causing long-term nasal congestion and breathing problems. Researchers will measure inflammation markers and examine nasal tissue from 10 adults using a steroid spray (budesonide). The goal is to better understa…

This study will test a new way to score CT scans to see how well it measures smell loss in people with central compartment atopic disease (CCAD), a type of nasal allergy. Researchers will compare the new scoring system to the traditional one in 120 participants. The goal is to im…

This study will collect blood samples from 30,000 adults in the UK with various health conditions, including blood clots, infections, heart disease, diabetes, and more. The samples will be used to develop and fine-tune new diagnostic tests for the cobas® lumira device, which allo…
