This pilot study investigates whether a brief bout of respiratory muscle training can alter the brain's control over tongue muscles in healthy adults. Twenty participants will perform breathing exercises using devices that resist inhalation or exhalation, and researchers will mea…

This study looked at how a single session of cycling reduces pain sensitivity in 90 healthy adults aged 18-30. Researchers measured pain thresholds and blood levels of certain compounds before and after exercise. The goal was to understand the mechanisms behind exercise-induced p…

This study tested whether healthy adults can safely digest and absorb protein from purple bacteria. Twelve participants ate a dairy product with or without purple bacteria, and researchers measured amino acid levels in their blood over four hours. The goal was to see if purple ba…

This study looked at how consistently tongue muscle strength and endurance can be measured in healthy children aged 4 to 17. Researchers tested kids twice to see if the results were the same each time. The goal was to understand if these measurements are reliable for future resea…

This study looked at how muscle stem cells (satellite cells) respond to a single session of eccentric leg exercise in healthy young men. Participants exercised in either normal air, a low-oxygen room, or with a blood-flow restriction cuff. Muscle biopsies and blood samples were t…

This completed study surveyed 250 adults with vestibular disorders (like vertigo) across Belgium, France, and the US. Participants filled out questionnaires about dizziness, anxiety, and thinking problems, while doctors provided routine test results. The goal is to link symptoms …

This study looked at how foot and ankle joints move and bear weight during running in people with chronic ankle instability, those who recovered from a sprain, and healthy individuals. Researchers used cameras and pressure plates to measure joint angles and forces, and ultrasound…
