This study compares two drug combinations (ketamine-lidocaine vs ketamine-fentanyl) used to put patients to sleep before heart bypass surgery. The goal is to see which combination better maintains blood flow to the brain during the procedure. The study includes 40 adults with cor…

This study compares two different sitting times after a numbing spinal injection for minor perianal surgery. The goal is to see which sitting duration helps patients get ready to go home sooner, while still providing good pain control. About 62 adults having day-case perianal sur…

This study looks at how often the diaphragm — the main muscle used for breathing — becomes weak after a C-section in women with severe preeclampsia. Researchers will use ultrasound to measure diaphragm movement before and 24 hours after surgery in 52 women. The goal is to find ou…

This study compares two types of laryngeal masks (LarySeal Pro and Ambu AuraGain) used in children aged 6-12 during general anesthesia. The goal is to see which device causes less air to enter the stomach, a common side effect that can lead to complications. Researchers will use …

This study compares two ways of taking digital dental impressions for people getting full-arch implant-supported teeth: intraoral scanning and photogrammetry. Researchers will measure how long each method takes and track any problems like screw loosening or chipping over 6 months…

This study is counting how common oral mucosal lesions (sores, growths, or color changes inside the mouth) are among Egyptian adults. Researchers will examine about 14,600 people at a hospital in Cairo and ask about risk factors. No treatment or drug is being tested—this is purel…

This study looks at whether measuring the size of a large vein in the leg with ultrasound can help predict a sudden drop in blood pressure after spinal anesthesia. It involves 43 older adults (over 60) having planned leg surgery. The goal is to find a simple way to identify those…

This study tests whether the printing layer thickness of 3D-printed dentures affects how much Candida fungus grows on them. Ten adults with no teeth will try dentures printed with different layer thicknesses. Researchers will measure fungus levels on the denture surface to see if…

This study looks at whether women with painful periods have worse knee joint awareness and balance compared to those without pain. Researchers will measure balance and knee position sense in 62 healthy young women. No treatment is given—this is purely an observation to better und…

This study is translating and testing an Arabic version of a survey that measures quality of life in people with type 2 diabetes who have nerve damage or foot ulcers. Researchers will enroll 290 Arabic-speaking adults to ensure the translated survey is accurate, reliable, and cul…

This study examines the link between psychological readiness, knee function, and muscle strength in athletes who had ACL reconstruction surgery. Researchers will measure mental readiness using a special scale and test knee strength with a machine. The goal is to understand why so…

This study tests two different preparation designs (bevel vs. butt) for Peek endocrowns, which are tooth-colored caps for molars that have had root canals. Researchers will check how precisely each design fits the tooth, using a replica technique and microscope. The goal is to se…

This study is testing whether an infrared thermal camera can accurately predict if a nerve block (erector spinae plane block) has worked in children aged 3 months to 6 years undergoing hernia repair. Researchers will measure temperature differences between the blocked and unblock…

This study tests whether measuring the thickening of a small chest muscle with ultrasound can help doctors decide the best time to remove a breathing tube from critically ill patients. Removing the tube too early or too late both carry serious risks. The trial will compare standa…
