This study tests whether a 16:8 time-restricted eating diet (eating only during an 8-hour window each day) helps people with obesity manage their weight, both those who have had bariatric surgery and those who haven't. Researchers will measure changes in body weight, fat mass, an…

This study tests two different medicines placed inside root canals to kill bacteria in teeth with chronic infection. 24 adults with infected molars will receive either a bioceramic or a calcium hydroxide paste. Researchers measure bacterial levels before and after treatment to se…

This study tests whether robot-assisted foot and ankle training, combined with virtual reality, can help people with chronic stroke walk faster and improve balance. Thirty participants will either receive this robotic therapy or standard manual training, plus usual rehab, for 6 w…

This study tests whether taking whey protein and collagen supplements along with doing resistance exercises can help people keep their muscle mass after bariatric surgery. About 35 adults who are having the surgery will be split into groups to compare different combinations of su…

This study tests a new 8-week program that combines motor imagery (mentally practicing movements) with vestibular rehabilitation (exercises for balance and dizziness) in 30 people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. The goal is to see if this combination improves balance…

This study compares two types of pain blocks—sacral erector spinae plane block and dorsal penile nerve block—in 70 boys aged 1-7 years having hypospadias surgery. The goal is to see which block provides better pain control after the operation. Researchers will measure pain scores…

This study compares two ways to block pain during lung surgery (VATS) to see if they can prevent chronic pain that lasts for months. Forty adults having planned lung surgery will receive either an ultrasound-guided nerve block or a surgeon-given block. Researchers will track pain…

This study tests two new methods to improve hand function in children with cerebral palsy: a virtual reality system called Leap Motion that uses hand-tracking games, and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) that uses mild electrical pulses to activate muscles. Thirty child…

This study tests a structured educational program for university students aged 18–24 who struggle with digital addiction. The program, led by an occupational therapist, teaches healthy technology use, time management, and awareness of screen habits. Researchers will measure chang…

This study looks at two different ways to numb the belly area in children aged 1 to 7 who are having surgery for an undescended testicle. The goal is to see which method reduces pain and the need for extra pain medicine after the operation. About 70 children will take part, and n…

This study looks at whether adding neck and upper back exercises to standard physical therapy can reduce pain and improve hand function in people with carpal tunnel syndrome. Sixty adults with the condition will be split into two groups: one gets standard therapy alone, the other…

This study tests whether wearable robotic gloves and virtual reality exercises can improve hand and arm function in people who have had a stroke. About 42 adults aged 30-60 with lasting hand weakness will be randomly assigned to standard therapy, therapy with a robotic glove, or …

This study compares two types of nerve blocks for pain after arthroscopic shoulder surgery. One is a standard block near the neck, and the other is a newer block in the upper back. Researchers will measure how much pain medicine patients need and their pain scores. The goal is to…

This study compares two types of nerve blocks (TLIP and Quadro Iliac) to see which one better reduces pain and the need for strong painkillers after lumbar microdiscectomy surgery for herniated discs. About 90 adults having this back surgery will receive one of the two blocks bef…

This study looks at two different nerve-block techniques to manage pain during a minimally invasive heart valve replacement called TAVI. About 60 adults having TAVI will receive either a pericapsular nerve group block, a fascia iliaca block, or local anesthesia. The goal is to se…

This study tests a new early intervention program for infants aged 4-10 months who are at risk of developing cerebral palsy. The program combines weekly home sessions with caregiver training to support the baby's development and reduce challenges. Researchers will check if the pr…

This study compares two non-surgical treatments for rotator cuff syndrome, a common cause of shoulder pain. Researchers will test if video game-based exercises or body awareness therapy better reduce pain and improve movement. 66 adults with partial rotator cuff tears will partic…

This study brings together 30 healthcare experts from around the world to agree on the best ways to use a machine called Mechanical Insufflation-Exsufflation (MI-E) in intensive care units. MI-E helps clear mucus from the lungs, but there are no standard rules for its use in crit…

This study is testing whether an artificial intelligence system can accurately assess motor development in children by analyzing short videos of them performing movement tasks. Researchers will record 60 children aged 5 to 10 years doing standardized exercises, then compare the A…

This study aims to create a new scoring system called REXs to better predict when patients on breathing machines in the ICU are ready to breathe on their own. The researchers will test this score in 470 patients to see if it can reduce the number of patients who need to be put ba…

This study looks at how well people with below-elbow amputations can imagine movements (motor imagery) and whether that skill helps them use their myoelectric prosthetic arm more effectively. Researchers will compare 30 amputees with a control group, using questionnaires and ment…

This study compares two 8-week exercise programs in adults aged 70 and older: one that combines physical balance exercises with cognitive tasks using a device called Blazepod, and another that uses conventional balance training alone. Researchers will measure balance, fear of fal…
