This project aims to study whether regular skin massage in babies induces cutaneous inflammation and whether this inflammatory response is amplified in those receiving daily (vs bi-weekly or no) skin massage over an 8 week period. Specifically, it aims to: 1. Establish if massag…

Observational study aimed at evaluating the use of momelotinib in patients with primary or post polycythemia vera (PV) or post essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (post-ET MF) in a real-world setting.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) often leads to poor disease control and reduced quality of life. Changes in the gut microbiota may disrupt the energy metabolism of immune cells, contributing to IBD. This study will examine how gut microbiota affects immune cell metabolism in he…

Enterococci are pathobionts of the human intestinal microbiota: they colonize the gastrointestinal tract as well as the skin, urine, wounds, bile, the oral cavity and endodontic canal, and medical devices (urinary catheters, venous catheters, etc.). They are responsible for urina…

This prospective observational study evaluates the feasibility and clinical utility of AI-enhanced continuous respiratory sound monitoring during intravenous anesthesia with supraglottic airway placement. With the increasing volume of surgical procedures requiring anesthesia, con…

The aim of this observational study is to investigate whether functional maturation assessment by electroencephalography in preterm infants can provide reliable data for the safe discontinuation of caffeine therapy without recurrence of apnea. In preterm infants receiving caffei…

This study examines the short-term respiratory and cognitive effects of exposure to ultrafine particles (UFPs) generated during typical household cooking. Healthy adults will complete two 6-hour sessions in a controlled exposure chamber at the University of Illinois Chicago: one …

This study aimed to investigate the effect of gluteus medius activation using electromyography (EMG) biofeedback combined with balance training on balance, physical performance, gluteus medius muscle activity, and quality of life in osteoporotic elderly patients.

This study is being conducted to compare two medications, intravenous lidocaine and intravenous magnesium sulfate, and their ability to keep blood pressure and heart rate stable during the period of waking up from general anesthesia in infertility-related laparoscopic gynecologic…

Resistance exercise applications during acute exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) are employed to enhance functional capacity and prevent muscle atrophy by increasing muscle strength. Owing to the limited cardiorespiratory reserve of COPD patients, sing…

The VIDIAC score is a measurement system that objectively defines glottic visibility and anatomical complexity in videolaryngoscopy. The literature has shown a relationship between parameters such as BMI, NC, and TMD and difficult airway management in obese patients, but there is…

Currently, there is still insufficient data to support the long-term efficacy, safety, and health benefits of time-restricted feeding models in women diagnosed with Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and further studies are needed to test and validate the effects of long-term diet…

The goal of this prospective and cross-sectional observational study is to learn if the presence and changes in kinesiofobia (fear of movement) affect functional capacity levels in heart failure patients who are transplant candidates and have been implanted with a Left Ventricula…

This research is to understand more about the forces that are involved on the tongue and other oropharyngeal structures during laryngeal surgery. This information will be used to determine if these forces can affect outcomes (pain, numbness, taste, etc) and whether factors such a…

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if mandibular reconstruction with immediate dental implants is as accurate in fresh cases and delayed cases The accuracy of the fibular segments and dental implants will be compared in both groups Participants will: undergo a preoper…

Data will be extracted from routinely collected hospital databases.

This pilot study evaluates the preliminary effectiveness of a combined rehabilitation program incorporating hold-relax (H-R) stretching techniques and progressive therapeutic exercises on knee pain and range of motion (ROM) in adolescent athletes diagnosed with Osgood-Schlatter d…

Open heart surgery is often associated with postoperative pulmonary complications, reduced lung expansion, dyspnea, and impaired cardiopulmonary function. Breathing exercises are commonly used after surgery to improve lung ventilation, enhance oxygenation, and support respiratory…

This randomized comparative trial evaluated whether an animated educational video, added to standard verbal counselling, differs from a content-matched written information leaflet, also added to standard verbal counselling, in improving procedural knowledge and reducing preoperat…

Stroke is one of the leading causes of acquired disability worldwide and frequently results in medical complications and long-term sequelae. Depending on the size of the lesions and the cerebral structures affected, sensory, motor, and cognitive impairments, as well as sensory-mo…
