This study looks at whether eating only during a set window each day combined with short, intense exercise can help overweight adults lose fat and improve health markers like blood sugar and cholesterol. One hundred participants will follow this routine remotely for 12 months, wi…

This trial is testing whether a supervised exercise program can reduce the risk of death, another heart attack, or stroke in people who have already had a heart attack. About 9,700 participants will be randomly assigned to either a four-year program with a personal trainer or to …

This study tests whether blood plasma from young, healthy, and very fit donors is safe and can help people with early Alzheimer's disease. Sixty patients aged 50-75 will receive monthly transfusions of either this 'exercise plasma' or a saltwater placebo over a year. Researchers …

This study tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab after standard chemo-radiotherapy helps people with limited-stage small-cell lung cancer live longer. About 212 participants will receive either atezolizumab or no additional treatment after chemo-radiation. The …

This study looks at whether a high-protein diet plus resistance training helps people with obesity keep fat off better than a standard low-calorie diet. Sixty adults will follow either a high-protein diet with supervised strength training or a balanced diet alone for 10 weeks, th…

This study looks at whether 12 months of high-intensity strength training can reduce falls in people aged 80 and older who have sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss). About 241 older adults living at home or in independent senior housing took part. The goal is to see if regular, p…

This study looks at whether regular exercise can reduce the risk of death and illness in older adults. Over 1,500 people aged 70 to 77 are taking part, doing either moderate or high-intensity exercise. Researchers are tracking their health over time to see if exercise intensity m…

This study looks at whether combining high-intensity exercise with time-restricted eating before and during pregnancy can lower the risk of high blood sugar (gestational diabetes). Researchers will track 167 women who are planning to become pregnant and have certain risk factors,…

This study investigates how aspirin can prevent preeclampsia, a serious pregnancy condition, in first-time mothers at high risk. Researchers will compare biological changes in 200 women with low or high risk, some taking aspirin and some not. The goal is to understand how aspirin…

This study compares a multidisciplinary treatment (combining pain management, pelvic floor therapy, and mucosal care) with standard care for women suffering from chronic vulvar pain (vulvodynia) lasting at least 3 months. About 106 women aged 18 and older will participate. The go…

This study follows 800 adults who have had their first ischemic stroke in Central Norway for up to 10 years. Researchers will track how physical activity, medication use, and control of blood pressure and cholesterol affect the risk of death, another stroke, or severe disability.…

This study investigates whether a protein called DISC1, known for its role in schizophrenia, is also linked to heart function in people with the condition. Researchers will measure DISC1 levels in blood and use heart imaging (echocardiograms, cardiac MRI, and ECGs) to assess hear…

This study explores how much energy people with incurable cancer actually use, compared to standard formulas. Researchers will measure resting energy expenditure using a special device and track survival over time. The goal is to improve nutritional care for these patients.

This study looks at whether regular exercise while breastfeeding changes the makeup of breastmilk in mothers who are overweight or have obesity. Researchers will measure specific sugars and other compounds in the milk and see if these changes affect the baby's growth and health. …

This study follows 1,500 people with long-term pain who are joining rehabilitation programs. Researchers want to understand how insomnia symptoms influence pain, function, and work ability. The goal is to use this knowledge to improve future treatments for chronic pain.

This study in Nepal tests whether using rapid point-of-care tests for sexually transmitted infections can reduce the overuse of antibiotics for vaginal discharge. About 1,500 women will be split into three groups: standard care, test-guided treatment, or test-guided treatment plu…
