This study compares two types of sinus surgery for people with stubborn chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps. One is the standard 'full house' surgery, and the other is a newer 'Reboot' approach that removes all inflamed tissue down to the bone. The goal is to see which one better …

This study tests a new way to fix cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks using a small plastic splint to support a tissue graft during nose surgery. It compares this method to the standard flap technique in 20 adults with leaks in both nostrils. The goal is to see if the splint helps th…

This study tests whether a single injection of dexamethasone-loaded exosomes into the ear can improve hearing recovery better than standard steroid injections in adults with sudden sensorineural hearing loss. About 30 participants who did not improve with oral steroids will be ra…

This study looks at whether adding a statin (atorvastatin or rosuvastatin) within 24 hours of a first small vessel stroke, alongside standard blood thinners (clopidogrel and aspirin), can reduce the risk of having another stroke within 90 days. About 600 adults aged 18-75 who had…

This study tests three ways to fill the gap between a tooth root and a new dental implant placed right after tooth removal. The methods are: a blood concentrate (L-PRF), a mix of the patient's own tooth particles with PRF (sticky tooth), or a mix of bone graft with PRF (sticky bo…

This study tests whether a material made from a patient's own blood (Alb-PRF) can help grow new bone after a sinus lift as well as traditional bone graft does. About 45 adults needing dental implants in the upper jaw will be randomly assigned to receive either Alb-PRF or bone gra…

This study tests if laser acupoint therapy can help unblock fallopian tubes in women trying to get pregnant. 36 women aged 20-35 with blocked tubes will receive the treatment. The main goal is to see if the tubes open up, checked by X-ray before and 3 months after treatment.

This study looks at two surgical methods to fix the spine in people with osteoporosis (weak bones). It compares screws that are reinforced with bone cement to regular hollow screws. The goal is to see which method provides better stability, pain relief, and recovery, with fewer c…

This study tests two different graft materials made from donated teeth to see which one better preserves the jawbone after a tooth is pulled. About 45 adults needing a single upper back tooth removed will be randomly assigned to receive one of the grafts or no graft at all. Over …

This study tests whether two forms of demineralized dentin matrix (a material made from tooth tissue) can help regenerate immature permanent teeth in children aged 9 to 15. The trial compares these materials to a standard sealing material called RetroMTA. Over 12 months, research…

This study tests whether the drug sacubitril/valsartan (Entresto) can improve heart function in people who have a prosthetic (artificial) heart valve and heart failure with reduced pumping ability. About 220 adults will either get the drug plus standard care, or standard care alo…

This study compares two antiplatelet drug combinations—ticagrelor plus aspirin versus cilostazol plus aspirin—given within 24 hours of a minor stroke or TIA. The goal is to see which combination better prevents new strokes over 90 days while keeping bleeding complications low. Ab…

This phase 3 trial compares atorvastatin versus rosuvastatin, both given with clopidogrel, in 600 adults who had a first large-vessel ischemic stroke. The goal is to see which combination better prevents new strokes within 90 days. Participants receive either 40 mg atorvastatin o…

This phase 3 trial compares two anti-clotting drug combinations—aspirin plus ticagrelor versus aspirin plus clopidogrel—in 900 adults who recently had a minor stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) caused by a large artery blockage. Participants receive the drugs within 24 hou…

This study is testing whether a special ultrasound of the brain's blood vessels can accurately diagnose brain injuries in newborns. Researchers will use transcranial Doppler ultrasound on 60 high-risk babies to see how well it detects problems. If it works, it could offer a safer…

This study compares how different laser frequencies affect nerve recovery in people with Bell's palsy, a condition that causes sudden facial paralysis. Researchers will measure nerve signals in the face before and after treatment. The goal is to find which laser setting works bes…

This study tests whether adding task-specific electrical stimulation to standard physical therapy can improve upper limb gross motor skills in children aged 2 to 6 with spastic quadriplegia cerebral palsy. Thirty children will be split into two groups: one gets standard therapy, …

This study looks at whether Pilates exercises can reduce low back pain in women who recently gave birth. About 48 women aged 20-30 with ongoing back pain will take part. Researchers will measure pain levels and how well the body handles pressure to see if Pilates helps.

This study tests whether a non-invasive nerve stimulation technique, called transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS), can reduce pain and improve quality of life in women with primary dysmenorrhea (painful periods). Thirty-two women aged 20-25 will receive either TTNS plus …

This study is testing a specific surgical technique called lateral crural steal with columellar strut graft during primary open rhinoplasty. The goal is to see if it improves nasal tip projection and rotation over the long term. The study will enroll 22 people who are seeking rhi…

This study tests whether a daily dose of acetyl-leucine (a modified amino acid) can improve balance and coordination in people who have had a stroke affecting the back part of the brain. Two hundred adults who recently had a stroke and have trouble walking or staying steady will …
