This study looked at 22 people with jaw bone damage caused by medications for osteoporosis or cancer. They all had surgery to remove the damaged bone. Half also received a gel made from their own blood (platelet-rich fibrin) placed into the wound. The goal was to see if this gel …

This study tested whether taking a daily probiotic supplement could reduce inflammation caused by chemotherapy or immunotherapy in women with breast cancer. Sixty women took either a probiotic or a placebo for eight weeks while receiving treatment. Researchers measured changes in…

This completed trial looked at whether giving dexamethasone through a nerve block or through a vein works better for pain and inflammation after total knee replacement. 90 older adults were randomly assigned to one of two groups. Researchers measured how long pain relief lasted, …

This study tested whether adding dexamethasone or dexmedetomidine to a standard nerve block (erector spinae plane block) could extend pain relief after spine surgery. 90 adults undergoing lumbar spine surgery received one of the two additives or a placebo. The main goal was to se…

This study looked at whether giving dexamethasone before a nerve block can prolong pain relief after hand or wrist surgery in children. Ninety children were randomly assigned to receive a small dose, a large dose, or a placebo. The main goal was to see how long it took before the…

This study looked at whether adding dexmedetomidine to a standard nerve block (ESPB) can improve pain control after scoliosis surgery in children aged 10 to 18. The main goal was to see how long it took before patients needed opioid pain medicine. The study enrolled 60 teens and …

This study tested whether adding dexamethasone or dexmedetomidine to a standard nerve block (erector spinae plane block) improves pain control after total knee replacement. 90 adults undergoing knee surgery received one of the two drugs or a placebo alongside the nerve block. Res…

This study looked at how much numbing medicine (ropivacaine) and whether adding dexamethasone affects pain control after hip replacement. 120 adults were split into four groups, each getting a different combination. The goal was to see which approach delays the need for strong pa…

This study looked at 60 children having hip surgery to see if giving the anti-inflammatory drug dexamethasone through a vein or near the nerves works better for pain relief. The goal was to reduce pain, inflammation, and the need for extra pain medicine. Results could help doctor…

This study tested whether a nerve block called an erector spinae plane block, given before cervical spine surgery, can reduce pain and the need for opioids afterward. Sixty adults undergoing neck fusion surgery were randomly assigned to receive either the anesthetic ropivacaine o…

This study tested a face cream containing platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), made from a person's own blood, to see if it could improve skin aging. Twenty healthy adults aged 20-40 applied three different creams to their faces daily for four weeks. The PRF cream improved skin hydration,…

This study tested whether a specific nerve block called PENG, using the numbing drug ropivacaine, could reduce surgical stress and pain after total hip replacement. Sixty older adults (ages 60-100) scheduled for hip surgery under spinal anesthesia received either the nerve block …

This study tested two different nerve block methods to control pain after total knee replacement surgery. Sixty older adults (ages 65-100) received either a two-level erector spinae block or an iPack with ACB block. The main goal was to see which method reduced the need for opioi…

This study tested whether giving tranexamic acid (TXA) before tummy tuck surgery reduces blood loss. Sixty adults scheduled for abdominoplasty received either TXA or a placebo before their operation. Researchers measured blood loss, hemoglobin, and other markers to see if TXA hel…

This study looked at whether adding dexamethasone to a nerve block (erector spinae plane block) can improve pain control after scoliosis surgery in children aged 10 to 18. Sixty children were randomly assigned to receive either the nerve block with dexamethasone or with a placebo…

This study tested whether a single dose of tranexamic acid, given before surgery, can reduce blood loss in women undergoing breast cosmetic surgery. 60 women participated, and researchers measured blood loss, hemoglobin, and other clotting factors. The goal is to see if this comm…

This study tested whether giving children a single dose of dexamethasone before a nerve block for ankle or foot surgery could extend pain relief and reduce the need for strong painkillers like opioids. 90 children took part, receiving either a small or large dose of dexamethasone…
