This study compares two bone graft materials (bovine bone granules and a sponge-like collagen matrix) used with an enamel protein gel to repair bone defects caused by gum disease. About 40 adults with moderate to severe periodontitis will receive one of the two grafts after stand…

This study looks at whether using a device that applies cold and pressure (cryopressotherapy) helps people recover faster after total knee replacement surgery. About 78 adults having knee replacement will be followed for 14 days. Researchers will measure pain, movement, and swell…

This study collects information from 400 people who had hip or knee replacement surgery to build a model that predicts how long they will need inpatient rehabilitation. The goal is to personalize care so each patient gets the right amount of support before going home safely. No n…

This study follows 450 adults with CPPD, gout, or osteoarthritis over up to 10 years. Researchers use regular ultrasounds and blood tests to see how crystal deposits in joints and blood vessels change and respond to standard treatments. The goal is to learn more about disease pro…

This study looks at how different types of physical activity change bone metabolism in 200 healthy professional athletes. Researchers will measure bone turnover markers and hormones to understand the link between exercise, energy use, and bone health. The goal is to learn how var…

This study aims to create a realistic 3D-printed model of a spinal disc using human cells. Researchers will compare the genes of cells from real discs to those grown in the lab model to see how well it mimics the real thing. The goal is to develop a better tool for studying degen…

This study follows 100 people who had total ankle replacement surgery for arthritis. Researchers want to see how long the implants last and how well patients function, but with a twist: the surgeries were done by surgeons who did not help design the implant. This helps give a mor…

This study checks if a new method for measuring vitamin D levels (Maglumi X3 SNIBE) gives the same results as current lab tests. Researchers will compare blood samples from 200 healthy volunteers and surgery patients. The goal is to ensure all vitamin D tests are accurate and rel…

This study looks at 200 people with a family history of heart disease but no symptoms. They will get a special CT scan to check for hidden, high-risk plaque in their heart arteries. The goal is to see if the scan can better predict who needs early treatment compared to standard c…
