This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can reduce nerve pain in people with spinal cord injury. About 63 adults with spinal cord injury and chronic neuropathic pain will receive either real rT…

This study compares two treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome: an ultrasound-guided injection and a small-incision surgery. Researchers will measure pain and hand function in 60 adults over 12 weeks. The goal is to find which approach provides better symptom relief.

This study compares three treatments—mirror therapy, brain stimulation (rTMS), and robotic hand therapy—added to standard rehab for stroke survivors. It aims to see which best improves arm movement, quality of life, and pain. About 120 adults aged 40-80 who had a stroke at least …

This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called rTMS can reduce nerve pain in people with spinal cord injury. Researchers will apply high-frequency magnetic pulses to a brain area involved in pain processing. Sixty adults with spinal cord injury and at …

This study compares two treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome: rest splints and high-intensity laser therapy, both added to standard physical therapy. Researchers will measure pain, hand function, nerve health, and grip strength in 78 adults aged 18-75. The goal is to find which …

This study tests whether adding a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to standard rehab can improve heart rate control, arm strength, and quality of life in stroke survivors. About 44 adults aged 35-80 who had a stro…

This study is testing whether a short, 5-question survey called PRAFAB is a reliable way to measure urinary incontinence in Turkish-speaking women. Researchers will enroll 63 women diagnosed with urinary incontinence to see if the questionnaire accurately captures both the physic…

This study looks at how blood flow restriction exercise—using a cuff to partially block blood flow to a leg—affects muscle size and blood markers in two groups: people new to strength training and experienced athletes. The goal is to understand how training history changes the bo…

This study looks at how carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) severity relates to sleep quality. Researchers will use ultrasound to examine the wrist and compare findings between 120 CTS patients and healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand the link between nerve compression a…

This study looks at how a routine exercise program can help the brain rewire itself after a stroke. Researchers will measure changes in genes and proteins linked to brain healing in 48 stroke survivors with arm or leg weakness. The goal is to understand the biological effects of …
