This study tests whether adding a small gum graft to standard deep cleaning helps control peri-implantitis, an infection around dental implants. Thirty non-smoking adults with thin gums will be split into two groups: one gets the graft, the other gets standard care only. Research…

This study looks at whether the speed of a manual therapy called the Graston Technique affects muscle tightness, pain, and oxygen levels in people with bruxism (teeth grinding or jaw clenching). Researchers will compare two speeds (60 vs. 120 beats per minute) on the upper back m…

This study tests a new early therapy program called SAFE for high-risk infants (3-12 months old) who may have developmental delays. The program focuses on activities that encourage arm and hand movement, fine motor skills, and parent-child interaction. Researchers will compare SA…

This study tests a new exercise program called Task-Oriented Circuit Training (TOCT) to see if it improves arm and hand movement in people who have had a stroke. The program involves 15 different exercise stations. Researchers will measure hand dexterity, finger function, and gri…

This study tests whether adding visual biofeedback to standard swallowing exercises and mild electrical stimulation can improve swallowing in people who had a stroke. About 34 adults who have trouble swallowing after a recent stroke will take part. They will be split into two gro…

This study tests whether a special type of breathing exercise, called functional inspiratory muscle training, can help people who have had lung cancer surgery. Researchers want to see if it improves oxygen use, muscle function, balance, and physical activity. The study involves 4…

This study looks at whether adding nerve gliding exercises to standard physical therapy can help people with long-lasting ulnar-sided (pinky side) wrist pain. About 34 adults with pain for at least 3 months will be split into two groups: one gets standard care (education, massage…

This study looks at whether tightness in a small chest muscle (pectoralis minor) is linked to rotator cuff tears in the shoulder. Researchers will compare 45 people with tears to 45 people without, matching them by age, sex, and activity level. The goal is to help doctors better …

This study looks at how people with coronary artery disease (CAD) respond to arm versus leg exercise. Researchers will measure blood vessel stiffness, muscle oxygen levels, and energy use during both types of exercise. The goal is to better understand exercise limitations in CAD …

This study checks if a 6-minute stepper test is a reliable way to measure exercise ability in people with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Researchers will compare it to standard tests like the 6-minute walk test and a treadmill test. The goal is to find a simple, low-cost tool t…

This study watches 400 people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer whose tumors have low PD-L1 levels. It compares two standard treatment mixes: chemotherapy with pembrolizumab versus chemotherapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab. The goal is to see which approach helps people l…

This study compares exercise ability, muscle oxygen levels, and artery stiffness between people who have had treatment for mitral stenosis (a narrowed heart valve) and healthy volunteers. Researchers aim to understand long-term effects on physical fitness and quality of life. The…

This study looks at how the constant vibration from tattoo machines may damage nerves in the hands of tattoo artists. Researchers will test touch, strength, and sensation in 20 tattoo artists and compare them to 20 people who don't use vibrating tools. The goal is to understand i…
