The purpose of the study is to see if regular exercise when combined with a cocoa supplement will improve physical performance and muscle strength compared to regular exercise alone.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurological condition that can affect movement, balance, endurance, and overall quality of life. Exercise is widely recognized as one of the most effective non-pharmacological treatments to help people with PD maintain function and indep…

The goal of this observational study is to compare physical findings across three adult groups. Cervicogenic headache (CGH) is a headache linked to a problem in the neck. Neck pain may affect posture, muscle function, grip strength, and sensitivity to pressure. Researchers do not…

Diabetes becomes epidemic in worldwide countries. Diabetes Canada indicated that 30% of adults in Manitoba are diabetes or prediabetes. Nine out of ten diabetic patients are type 2 diabetes (T2D). T2D is characterized by insulin resistance and obesity. Uncontrolled diabetes leads…

This project uses the Malabsorption Blood Test (MBT) to identify patients with recurrent acute or chronic pancreatitis who have mild to moderate exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. A subgroup of patients who have response to pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy will enter a rando…

Glaucoma is a complex disease that can result in progressive vision loss. It is the second leading cause of blindness, accounting for 23% of permanent blindness in Hong Kong. There are no treatments that restore vision lost to glaucoma. This study will examine the effect of trans…

Stroke is the leading cause of acquired motor disability in adults. Six months post-stroke, 50% of patients have not regained active finger extension, and 80% retain a grasping deficit, most commonly an inability to actively open the hand. This motor impairment significantly impa…

The goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a school-based weight management intervention delivered through a digital platform (WeChat) in preventing excessive weight gain and improving health behaviors in school-aged children in Fangshan District, Beijing. The mai…

For patients with severe calcification or complex non-calcified plaques, we investigate wether PCCT can enable non-invasive, in vivo precise differentiation and quantitative measurement of plaque components (e.g., spotty calcification, necrotic core, fibrous tissue). Further we a…

Retinitis pigmentosa and similar degenerative diseases of the retina lead to progressive loss of vision. TES therapy with the CE-marked OkuStim® System is a treatment approved in the EU for slowing the progression of the disease. Patients increasingly report short-term subjective…

This is a single-arm study to investigate the heterogeneity of glycemic response to Lactobacillus paracasei LC19 in patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes. Participants will receive LC19 for 12 weeks, and changes in glycemic control will be evaluated.

This study aims to examine the effects of moderate-intensity strength training, performed with or without an unloading knee orthosis (valgus-corrective or sham mode), on muscle function, motor unit behavior, and force modulation in patients with moderate knee osteoarthritis

This study aims to compare the effectiveness and safety of High-Intensity Laser Therapy (HILT) with conventional physical therapy treatments in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Knee osteoarthritis is a common condition, especially in older adults, causing pain, stiffness, reduc…

The primary objective of this study is to validate the safety and clinical performance of the ABLE Exoskeleton with integrated Functional Electrical Stimulation (ABLE FES) in individuals with neurological conditions that impair gait, including spinal cord injury, acquired brain i…

The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate whether adding high-dose vitamin D (2,400 IU daily) to standard medical treatment (solifenacin combined with behavioral therapy) is more effective than standard treatment alone for children with overactive bladder-wet (OAB-wet)…
