About this study

Official title: Study of the Relationship Between Blood Groups,RH and Skeletal Malocclusion in a Group of Egyptian Population: a Cross Sectional Study

the study is searching if there is a relationship between the blood groups and RH and the skeletal malocclusion using the skeletal class I as a control group

Read the detailed description

The study will be conducted on the patients seeking medical care in the orthodontic department Cairo University, for six months all patients with class II and class III malocclusion will be recruited based on Wits appraisal measured from the cephalometric X-ray taken routinely during orthodontic examination. Then a group of class I arch length discrepancy patients will be used as control. A blood sample will be withdrawn and taken to the Cairo university laboratory to analyze the blood group and RH .a statistical analysis will be performed to detect a relationship between skeletal malocclusion and the blood groups as compared to the control

Being tested
blood type test
Medical subject headings
Overbite, Malocclusion, Angle Class III

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • blood type testDiagnostic test

    Also called ABO and RH test, blood typing

    a blood sample will be withdrawn from the subjects tested by anti A anti B and anti D antigens to detect the individuals blood group and RH. then statistical analysis to detect presence of a relationship between skeletal types of malocclusion and ABO blood groups

Study groups in NCT03085082
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
skeletal class II subjectspatients with wits appraisal more than 3 mm measured on a cephalometric x ray obtained during diagnosis
Receives: Diagnostic Test: blood type test
skeletal class III subjectspatients with wits appraisal less than -3 mm measured on a cephalometric x ray obtained during diagnosis
Receives: Diagnostic Test: blood type test
skeletal class I patientspatients with Wits appraisal between -3 and +3 that is measured from a cephalometric x ray obtained during diagnosis of arch length discrepancy. this group will serve as control and obtained after recruitment of the other 2 groups in 1 to 1 fashion
Receives: Diagnostic Test: blood type test

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. relationship between blood group and skeletal malocclusion

    If skeletal malocclusion subjects were found to have a high percentage of a certain blood type or RH when compared to the control group it will be reported that there is a relationship between blood group and skeletal malocclusion. If percentages of blood groups are approximately the same in the malocclusion subjects and the control then the investigator will report that there is no relationship between blood groups and skeletal malocclusion

    Measured: the recruitment will be for six months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Class II Malocclusion and Class III Malocclusion, run by Cairo University.

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.

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 Noor Elsebai (01023415842, noorelsebai@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

relationship between blood group and skeletal malocclusion (time frame: the recruitment will be for six months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03085082, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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.
