This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of temperature change (ΔT) measurements using infrared thermography to predict a successful erector spinae plane block in pediatric patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair under general anesthesia.

The goal of this study is to determine if the Otis Brux-Sensor Night Guard (OBSNG) can record the bite compression forces of participants with Bruxism. The main questions it aims to answer is: 1. Is it possible to design and miniaturize electrical hardware components small enoug…

Obstructive type sleep apnea syndrome is a clinical condition characterized by apnea, hypopnea and oxygen desaturation due to narrowing of the upper airway during sleep. Obesity is considered a major predisposing factor for OSAS. In addition, various recent studies have reported …

Tooth extraction is among the most common dental treatments. The procedure results in the formation of a bone defect. During the healing phase, the vertical and horizontal diameters of the alveolar ridge decrease, which has a negative impact on planned prosthetic or implantoprost…

Evaluate the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding at M3 within the Martigues CH.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how three different exercises affect quadriceps muscle activity (Vastus medialis, Vastus lateralis, and Rectus femoris) in young fencers. The three exercises are: a single-leg decline squat, a single-leg decline squat with core activati…

Sarcopenia describes the progressive decline of muscle mass and strength with advancing age and is associated with increased frailty and morbidity, however we do not currently have an effective treatment. Protein feeding and exercise is known to increase muscle mass, but aged mus…

This randomized controlled trial aims to compare the effects of unstable versus stable trunk core strength training on shooting performance and postural stability in elite 10 m air pistol athletes. Twenty national-level athletes will be randomly assigned to either an unstable tra…

Background Hip fracture affects 70,000 people in the United Kingdom (UK) and costs an estimated £1.1 billion per year to the National Health Service (NHS). Key clinical indicators, such as early surgical repair, have been shown to improve patient outcomes, however morbidity and m…

The primary aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate how fasted prolonged exercise may influence circulating reproductive hormones (i.e., estradiol, progesterone, luteinizing hormone) and menstrual cycle length when energy availability is maintained at or above 30 kcal/kg lean b…

To investigate the levels of Relaxin in different types of endometrial preparation for a frozen embryo transfer cycle. Up to now it is unclear, whether ovulation with a functional corpus luteum (CL) will be present in a natural proliferative phase (NPP) endometrial preparation ap…

The main objective of this study is to develop baseline "normal" reference values of both lung and heart function for healthy adults within the age range relevant to the United States Veteran population who served in the Southwest Asia theater of military operations. This study …

This cross-sectional study investigates the relationship between different curve patterns in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) and the distribution of foot pressure. It aims to determine whether coronal and sagittal curve patterns are associated with asymmetries in plantar pr…

The purpose of this study is to pilot a mind-body intervention for cardiac arrest survivors and their informal caregivers, Recovering Together after Cardiac Arrest. The data the investigators gather in this study will be used to further refine our intervention.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate two different ways to administer the numbing solution. One is with a conventional needle and syringe the other method iontophoresis is a machine that supplies a weak current through electrodes that touch your teeth. Both methods use an anes…

Glottis mask airway (GMA) is supraglottic airway device and is frequently used in patients undergoing general anesthesia. However, gastroesophageal reflux remains a risk during ventilation through supraglottic airway devices. The classical shaped GMA and tulip shaped GMA differ i…

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Even after adjustment for known cardiovascular risk factors, including diabetes and hypertension, mortality risk progressively increases with worsening CKD. As…

Blood flow restriction (BFR) is a widely studied technique that combines low-intensity exercise with vascular occlusion, resulting in muscular benefits. However, its application is challenging due to methodological variations and equipment costs. Tissue Flossing (TF) appears as a…

This research aims to explore the effects of two supplements, caffeine and sodium bicarbonate, on acute (short-term) resistance training performance. The present study aims to assess the effects of caffeine and sodium bicarbonate supplementation on the number of repetitions, musc…

This randomised, controlled, two-arm trial evaluates whether light resisted sprint training (sled towing at 20% of body mass) produces superior improvements in 30 m sprint mechanical outputs compared with matched-dose unresisted sprint training in youth footballers. Participants…
