This study compares drinking water to receiving intravenous (IV) fluids for preventing kidney injury caused by contrast dye used in CT scans. About 198 emergency department patients with mild-to-moderate chronic kidney disease will be randomly assigned to either drink water or ge…

This study looks at two different ways to give a nerve block injection for a condition called superior cluneal nerve entrapment, which can cause long-term low back and buttock pain. Researchers will compare a proximal (closer to the spine) and a distal (farther from the spine) in…

This study tests whether a 6-week supervised pool exercise program can improve muscle strength, muscle mass, physical performance, and quality of life in adults aged 65 and older with sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss). Participants will exercise in water, which is easier on jo…

This study compares two types of nerve blocks—Quadratus Lumborum and Transversalis Fascia—to see which one controls pain better after inguinal hernia surgery. About 60 adults having elective surgery will receive one of the two blocks, and researchers will measure how long it take…

This study tests whether injecting a sugar solution (dextrose) into the tailbone area can reduce pain and improve daily function in people with long-lasting tailbone pain (coccydynia). Thirty adults with pain lasting at least 3 months will receive the injections and be followed f…

This study tests whether a special 3D exercise program (the Schroth method) can improve trunk muscle endurance, sleep quality, and quality of life in adolescents aged 12-18 with hyperkyphosis (excessive rounding of the upper back). Sixty participants will be assigned to the exerc…

This study looks at whether thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels during pregnancy are linked to depression, anxiety, sexual function, and quality of life. Researchers will measure TSH in 180 pregnant women and compare their scores on standard mental health and sexual function…

This study uses ultrasound to measure the thickness of ankle cartilage in people with spinal cord injury and compares it to healthy volunteers. The goal is to detect early signs of osteoarthritis, a common joint problem in this group. Researchers will also look at how factors lik…

This study is looking at whether the timing of when a hormone-releasing IUD is placed affects the chance of developing ovarian cysts. Researchers will follow 60 women for one year, using ultrasound to check for cysts at 0, 3, 6, and 12 months. The goal is to find the best time in…
