This study is testing three different dental materials to see which works best for saving young permanent molars with deep cavities. The procedure, called a pulpotomy, aims to keep the tooth alive so it can continue growing roots normally. Researchers are comparing a new material…

This study is looking at whether adding a GLP-1 drug (dulaglutide) to standard insulin therapy can help regulate menstrual cycles in teenage girls with Type 1 diabetes. It will involve 50 girls aged 12-18 who have poorly controlled diabetes and irregular periods. The goal is to s…

This study is testing whether making tiny perforations in the jawbone can help clear aligners (like Invisalign) straighten crowded lower teeth faster and more predictably. Researchers are comparing standard aligner treatment to treatment combined with these micro-perforations in …

This study is testing whether a supplement called alpha lipoic acid can help protect the hearts of children who need regular kidney dialysis. Fifty children will take either the supplement or a placebo pill daily. Researchers will monitor for heart problems and check blood marker…

This study is testing whether giving sodium (salt) supplements to premature babies starting after their first week of life helps them gain weight better. It involves 74 very small, premature infants. Researchers will carefully monitor the babies' weight, blood salt levels, and ov…

This study tests whether new nano-based treatments work better than the standard antibiotic paste for saving infected baby teeth. It involves 108 children aged 4-8 with a severely infected back baby tooth. Researchers will compare how well the different pastes control the infecti…

This study is testing whether adding two supplements, N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) and vitamin D, to standard hospital care can improve recovery for children who have swallowed corrosive substances like strong cleaners or acids. It aims to see if these treatments can reduce painful sc…

This study aims to find out which of two common types of powerful antibiotics works better as the first treatment for sepsis, a life-threatening infection, in patients with serious burns. It will compare how well patients survive and recover when given either Meropenem or Piperac…

This study is comparing two different materials used in a minimally invasive surgery to cover receding gums. Researchers are testing whether a collagen membrane works as well as the traditional method of taking tissue from the roof of the mouth. They will measure how much gum gro…

This study aims to see which of two dental varnishes works better to repair early white spots on teeth, a common issue after braces. Young adults (15-25 years old) will have one varnish applied to spots on one side of their mouth and the other varnish on the opposite side. Resear…

This study is testing if collecting a second semen sample from a man just 1-3 hours after the first provides better quality sperm for a specific IVF procedure called ICSI. Researchers believe sperm from this second sample may be more active and have less DNA damage, which could l…

This study aims to find a better way to predict which children might have a difficult airway during surgery requiring a breathing tube. Researchers will compare standard physical exams to ultrasound scans of the neck in 130 children having elective surgery. The goal is to see if …

This study compares two common anesthesia techniques for diabetic patients undergoing minimally invasive chest surgery. Researchers want to see if one method (Total Intravenous Anesthesia) is better than the other (Balanced Anesthesia) at controlling blood sugar levels during the…

This study compares two different nerve-blocking techniques to see which provides better pain relief after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (a common weight loss surgery). Researchers will measure pain levels in 52 adult patients with a body mass index of 35 or higher. The goal is…

This study is testing two different medications added to a local nerve block to help control pain after nose surgery. Researchers want to see which combination provides longer-lasting pain relief for patients. The study involves 90 adults undergoing rhinoplasty surgery who will r…

This study compares two different nerve block techniques to see which one better controls pain after open kidney removal surgery. Researchers are testing ultrasound-guided injections in the back to numb specific nerves. The goal is to reduce patients' need for strong pain medicat…

This study is testing a new, low-cost method to help control pain during cleft lip repair surgery in infants. Researchers are comparing a smartphone-based AI system that guides a numbing injection to the standard technique. The goal is to see if the AI-assisted method is more eff…

This study is testing if a targeted nerve block, given alongside general anesthesia, can better manage pain during and after ear surgery. Researchers are comparing it to standard anesthesia to see if it reduces the need for strong painkillers and improves patient comfort. The goa…

This study compares two different nerve-blocking procedures for people with chronic, non-cancer tailbone pain that doesn't improve with medications. Researchers will test whether using heat (radiofrequency ablation) or alcohol (chemical neurolysis) on a specific nerve cluster pro…

This study is testing if a drug called sugammadex helps patients wake up more calmly after nasal surgery, compared to the standard drug used to reverse anesthesia. It involves 486 adults having procedures like septoplasty or rhinoplasty. The main goal is to see if sugammadex lowe…

This study aims to understand how well two different types of dental veneers perform on back teeth. Researchers will place veneers on a small group of participants and then carefully check them over time for wear, fit, and color. The goal is to gather better information to help d…

This study aims to find out if tracking changes in a protein called albumin in the blood is as good as, or better than, tracking lactic acid levels for predicting whether a sepsis patient in the intensive care unit will recover or not. Researchers will monitor 40 adult patients w…

This study aims to understand how radiation therapy for head and neck cancer affects a patient's teeth, gums, and saliva over time. Researchers will follow 100 patients from before their radiation treatment through one year after, measuring changes in gum health, tooth decay, and…

This study aims to see if a simple saliva test can provide the same information as a more invasive lung fluid test in children with severe breathing failure (ARDS). Researchers will measure inflammation markers in both saliva and lung fluid from 37 children to see if they match a…

This study aims to find out if using 3 screws instead of 4 to attach a lower dental bridge to implants results in less bone loss in the jaw. It will follow 14 men with no teeth, taking X-rays over 9 months to measure bone changes. The goal is to gather knowledge to help dentists …
