This study tested whether adding functional electrical stimulation (FES) cycling to standard robotic rehabilitation could improve walking and leg function in people with chronic, incomplete spinal cord injuries. Thirty-eight participants who were at least six months post-injury a…

This study compared two procedures to relieve pain from nerve endings in the residual limb of lower-leg amputees. Researchers tested whether using heat energy (radiofrequency ablation) or a steroid injection, both guided by ultrasound, worked better to reduce pain and improve fun…

This study compared two different injections for treating mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. Thirty patients received either a steroid injection (betamethasone) or a 5% dextrose (sugar water) injection, guided by ultrasound. Researchers measured pain levels and hand functio…

This study tested two different non-invasive brain stimulation techniques to see if they could help improve walking and leg movement when combined with robotic rehabilitation. It involved 30 people with chronic, incomplete spinal cord injuries. The main goal was to see if a newer…

This study tested if using two imaging methods together (ultrasound and fluoroscopy) to guide pain-relief injections into the sacroiliac joint was faster and exposed patients to less radiation than using fluoroscopy alone. It involved 38 adults with chronic low back or hip pain t…

This small, completed pilot study tested whether adding electrical stimulation to standard wound care helps heal stubborn pressure wounds. It involved 20 adults with spinal cord or brain injuries whose wounds hadn't improved after a month of regular care. The study measured chang…

This study tested whether manual therapy (hands-on treatment) on the neck could help people with a specific type of ringing in the ears linked to neck problems. It involved 31 adults who had both tinnitus and neck pain. Researchers compared the effects of this targeted therapy to…

This study compared two different rehabilitation methods to help improve leg movement and walking ability in people recovering from a stroke. It involved 45 patients who had a stroke within the last six months. Researchers tested whether mirror therapy (using visual feedback) or …

This study tested whether a treatment called extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) could reduce pain and shrink painful bone spurs in people who have had a leg amputated due to trauma. Twenty-nine male amputees with a painful bone spur in their residual limb were randomly assig…

This study tested two types of radiofrequency ablation, a procedure that uses heat to target nerves, to see which one better reduces pain and improves function in people with advanced knee osteoarthritis. It involved 26 adults whose knee pain had not improved with standard treatm…

This study aimed to understand how a stroke affects bone strength, particularly in the hip. Researchers measured bone density in 44 stroke patients to see how it relates to factors like muscle strength, balance, and walking ability. The goal was to gather knowledge to help preven…

This study aimed to learn about the experiences of women with spinal cord injury regarding having children, using birth control, and pregnancy. Researchers surveyed 70 women aged 18-55 who had been living with their injury for over a year. The goal was to gather information to be…

This study aimed to understand the challenges faced by family members caring for stroke patients who have bladder control issues. Researchers surveyed 70 caregivers to measure their stress levels, fatigue, sleep problems, and feelings of depression. The goal was to gather informa…

This study aimed to create standard reference values for how far Turkish stroke survivors can walk in six minutes. Researchers measured 341 patients who were at least six months post-stroke to understand what factors predict walking endurance. The goal is to help rehabilitation t…
