What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
optical coherence tomography angiographyOther
OCTA will be used to evaluate the macular vascular density and to exclude patients with pathological myopic maculopathy
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| High Myopes of spherical error -6 and more . | Experimental | About 50 participants with high myopia will undergo evaluation of their macular vascular density using OCTA and also central macular thickness using OCT. Receives: Other: optical coherence tomography angiography |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Outcome of evaluation of vascular density in high myopes
Correlation between macular vascular density in high myopes and their :
Uncorrected visual acuity in diopters . Best corrected visual acuity in diopters . Spherical equivalent refraction that measured through this equivalent (spherical error + 1/2 cylindrical error ) .
Central macular thickness in micrometers .
To see how does ischemia affects vision in high myopes .
Measured: 6 month

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing optical coherence tomography angiography in people with High Myopia, run by Sohag University at 1 site in Egypt.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Sara Magdy Mohammed, Master degree (00201096507733, saramagdy@med.sohag.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Outcome of evaluation of vascular density in high myopes (time frame: 6 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Sep 2024.
