Perineal pain is common after vaginal birth. Thermotherapy might be effective to limit postpartum perineal pain, thanks to the effects of local heating or cooling application. This study aims to evaluate the impact of thermotherapy during childbirth on postpartum perineal pain.

The purpose of this study is to determine if the novel TR approach is superior to the standard RP approach. The anticipated study outcome is a time saving of at least 30% from first skin incision to detection of the renal artery compared to the conventional RP approach, and also …

This is an interventional study enrolling healthy individuals aged 18-35 and 60-85 to understand the recovery of muscle health following a period of inactivity. The enrollment goal is 45 participants. The study will occur over the course of 1-2 months where participants will unde…

Urban children with asthma are at high risk for short sleep, due to an environment that jeopardizes both sleep and asthma management. Further, urban children with asthma suffer from altered immune balance, a key biological process contributing to individual differences in asthma …

Introduction: Low back pain is a musculoskeletal disorder that is associated with symptoms such as pain, limitation of joint range and postural problems in athletes. Postural control is a key factor in disciplines with high biomechanical demands, such as rhythmic gymnastics. In a…

A commercially available product clinical study which aims to confirm the safety, performance, and clinical benefits to the patient of the ALPS Clavicle Plating system for both the implant itself and the instrumentation used during surgery.

This study's objective is to identify and test pragmatic and sustainable strategies for implementing a multi-condition clinical pathway intervention for children hospitalized with asthma, pneumonia, or bronchiolitis in community hospitals. The hypothesis is that the multi-conditi…

Higher gut microbiome diversity has been associated with improved survival following autologous stem cell transplantation in multiple myeloma and lymphoma. This study hypothesises that prebiotic supplementation with resistant starch (RS) will improve gut microbiome diversity at t…

This research is being done to find out if the study drug (posaconazole) can enter brain tumors at a high enough amount to stop the tumor cells from dividing. Posaconazole is a drug which doctors already use for fungal infections and is thought to be able to effect tumor cells. A…

The purpose of the study is to test whether a two-piece zirconia implant is as reliable in the indication of immediate implant placement as a standard titanium implant.

This study is an open-label Phase 1, First in Human trial of DR30303, a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody that targets Claudin18.2 (CLDN18.2). It is composed of humanized variable domain of heavy chain of antibody (VHH) fused with engineered immunoglobulin gamma-1(IgG1) F…

A difficult cannulation has been identified as one of the high risk factors for developing post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP). The accessibility and morphology of the papilla influence the level of cannulation difficulty. The use of a forceps to assist in the cannulation is a demonstra…

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign, pseudotumoral, genetic but non-hereditary condition characterized by the presence of one or more areas of abnormal bone development in which the normal structure is replaced by fibrous tissue. It is an extremely heterogeneous condition, as it can be…

The main hypothesis of the study is that in situ infiltration of the meniscal lesion would provide patients with lasting and greater relief than intra-articular infiltration. A statistically significant difference would be if the Lysholm score of the meniscal wall group at 3 mont…

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a spectrum of liver conditions associated with fat accumulation that ranges from benign, non-progressive liver fat accumulation to severe liver injury, cirrhosis, and liver failure. The spectrum of NAFLD encompasses simple nonalcoholic …

This clinical trial explores and implements methods to improve informed decision making (IDM) regarding precision oncology tests amongst veterans with prostate cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (adv…

Nonrandomized controlled trial to assess whether or not sleeve gastrectomy (SG) or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) affect social experiences and biomarkers of well-being 6 weeks and 1 year after surgery. The decision whether SG or RYGB will be performed is determined by medical d…

Background: Brain activity produces magnetic fields. These fields can be measured outside the head. Existing technology, called MEG, measures these fields. Researchers are testing a new type of magnetic field sensor called OPM. They hope it can help pinpoint with very high accur…

Neuromuscular Diseases (NMDs) affect \> 7 million people worldwide. NMDs are often difficult to accurately diagnose, with over 200 different genetic causes with overlapping clinical presentations. Muscle Magnetic Resonance Imaging (Muscle MRI) allows for non-invasive, comprehensi…
