SEPS vs Open Ligation for Varicose Veins in the Leg
This study tests whether subfascial endoscopic perforator surgery (SEPS) works better than open perforator ligation for adults with varicose veins in the leg.
-
Aspirin alone vs. low-dose rivaroxaban plus aspirin for chronic limb-threatening ischemia
This trial tests whether adding a low dose of rivaroxaban to aspirin helps people aged 40–70 with chronic limb-threatening ischemia and diabetes see fewer limb and heart-related problems.
-
Benzhexol vs. Procyclidine for tremor in tremor-predominant Parkinson's
This study tests whether benzhexol works as well as procyclidine to reduce tremor in adults with tremor-predominant Parkinson's disease who are taking levodopa.
-
Eslicarbazepine in adults with focal-onset seizures
This project tests how eslicarbazepine works in adults with focal-onset seizures in routine care, including those who are new to treatment and those switching from carbamazepine or oxcarbazepine.
-
N-acetylcysteine for non-acetaminophen-induced acute liver failure
Researchers are testing whether adding oral N-acetylcysteine to standard care helps adults with non-acetaminophen acute liver failure survive longer compared with standard care alone.
-
Modified DHAP vs Standard DHAP in relapsed/refractory DLBCL
This phase 3 trial tests whether a split, lower-dose version of DHAP is as effective as the standard regimen for adults with relapsed or refractory DLBCL and tries to reduce toxicities.
-
How gallbladder is taken out during laparoscopy: subxiphoid vs infraumbilical port
This trial tests whether removing the gallbladder through the subxiphoid port is as safe and comfortable as the usual infraumbilical port in people with gallstone disease needing laparoscopic gallbladder removal.
-
Liberal versus restrictive IV fluids after laparoscopic gallbladder removal
This will see if giving less IV fluid compared with more IV fluid after laparoscopic gallbladder removal helps adults aged 18–60 stay stable and recover similarly.
-
Comparing two minimally invasive repairs—ETEP versus SCOLA—for para‑umbilical hernia
This compares two surgical methods, ETEP and SCOLA, to see which leads to fewer complications and less pain for adults aged 18–65 with para‑umbilical hernias.
-
Cruciate incision versus saucerization for draining diabetic carbuncle, both followed by vacuum-assisted closure
This trial will test whether a cruciate incision or saucerization—each followed by vacuum-assisted closure (VAC)—causes less blood loss and faster healing in people aged 25–70 with diabetic carbuncles.
-
Vonoprazan to prevent ulcers after endoscopic variceal band ligation
This trial tests whether taking vonoprazan 20 mg once daily for 14 days after variceal band ligation can reduce ulcers and swallowing pain in adults with liver cirrhosis compared with a placebo.
-
Lignocaine versus GTN ointment for pain after hemorrhoidectomy
This test compares lignocaine ointment and 0.2% glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) ointment to see which provides better pain relief for adults after hemorrhoidectomy.
-
Aloe vera gel versus paraffin tulle dressings for donor-site pain after split-thickness skin grafts
This trial tests whether Aloe vera gel dressings reduce pain more than paraffin tulle dressings for adults (18–60) after split-thickness skin graft donor-site wounds.
-
Comparing Atorvastatin and Rosuvastatin's effects on Vitamin D levels in heart patients
This study tests whether taking Atorvastatin or Rosuvastatin affects Vitamin D levels in heart patients with acute coronary syndrome.
-
Comparing two suturing techniques for closing abdominal surgery wounds
This study is testing whether a new way of stitching up surgery wounds works better than the traditional method for patients having emergency surgery for a perforated organ.
