ACUTE STROKE

This study is testing whether adding an injectable cholesterol-lowering drug (evolocumab) to standard stroke treatment can help prevent patients from getting worse in the first week after a stroke. It involves 132 adults who have just had an ischemic stroke caused by clogged arte…

This study is testing if giving a cholesterol-lowering drug called evolocumab within 6 hours after a successful stroke clot removal procedure helps patients recover better. It will involve 60 stroke patients who have had a clot removed. Half will get the drug plus standard care, …

This study is testing if an intravenous drug called Dimephosphon can help people recover better after a recent ischemic stroke. About 184 adults who had a stroke within the last 24-72 hours will receive either the drug or a placebo. Researchers will measure how well people recove…

This study is testing whether starting personalized nutrition support within two days of a severe stroke can help reduce deaths in the first month. In the test group, a dietitian will assess each patient and create a feeding plan, which may include special foods or tube feeding i…

This study is testing a new medical device and technique called ADAPT 2.0 to remove blood clots from the brain during acute ischemic stroke. The trial will enroll 750 adult stroke patients to see if this approach can restore blood flow to the brain more effectively and safely tha…

This study compares two anesthesia approaches during emergency stroke surgery to remove blood clots. Researchers want to see if slightly increasing carbon dioxide levels during anesthesia helps maintain better blood flow to the brain during the procedure. The trial involves 90 st…

This study aims to use artificial intelligence (AI) to create a personalized plan for stroke recovery. Researchers will gather detailed health data from 400 stroke survivors to train an AI system. The goal is for the AI to predict which type of rehabilitation therapy—like standar…

This study is testing a new way to feed patients who have had a severe stroke. The goal is to see if starting with a small amount of tube feeding, while giving extra nutrition through an IV, can reduce dangerous lung infections (pneumonia) and help patients recover better. It wil…

This study is testing whether a new drug called DM199 can help people recover better after a moderate stroke. It is for adults who have had a stroke within the last 24 hours and are not eligible for the most common clot-removal procedures. Participants will receive either the stu…

This study tests whether a special blood pressure cuff treatment can be safely given to stroke patients during helicopter transport to a specialized hospital. The treatment involves inflating cuffs on the arms or legs in cycles to potentially protect brain tissue during the fligh…

This study is testing if a simple, non-invasive ultrasound of the throat can safely identify stroke patients at high risk for choking and pneumonia. Researchers will scan the vocal cords of 200 recent stroke patients and track who develops choking or lung infections over the next…

This study is testing if a technique called mirror therapy can help people recover arm and hand movement after a recent stroke. Mirror therapy uses a mirror to create the visual illusion that a weakened limb is moving normally. The study will compare standard physical therapy alo…

This study aims to find out which of two physical therapy approaches works better for improving arm and hand function in people who have recently had a stroke. Forty participants will be randomly assigned to receive either 'isolated' muscle training using special biofeedback or '…

This study is creating a large national registry to connect stroke survivors with researchers. The goal is to match people who have had a stroke with scientists developing new treatments to improve recovery. By joining, participants fill out a survey and may be contacted for futu…

This study aims to see if a simple scoring system, called the Modified SOAR score, can accurately predict which patients hospitalized for a stroke are at highest risk of dying within the first week. Researchers will observe 60 adult stroke patients at Sohag University Hospitals, …

This study aims to find out if simple body measurements can help predict how well someone will recover after a stroke. Researchers will measure muscle mass and composition in 250 stroke patients shortly after their stroke. They will then check if these measurements are linked to …
