Impact of Indoor Overheating on Physiological Strain in Children
Communities worldwide are experiencing increasing heat extremes that challenge the limits of human thermoregulation, particularly among vulnerable populations such as children. Compared with adults, children are more susceptible to heat related illness due to less efficient thermoregulatory systems and difficulty recognizing early signs of heat stress. In addition, prolonged heat …
Effect of a Multi-strain Probiotic on Recurrent Vulvovaginal Candidiasis
This study evaluates the effect of a multi-strain probiotic on the risk of recurrence and severity of symptoms in females with recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis (R-VVC).
Dose, Safety, and Pathogenicity of a New Influenza B Strain
This is an exploratory study of an influenza B challenge strain to determine the optimum infectious titer of challenge agent in healthy participants 18 to 55 years of age.
Addressing Neuromuscular Deficits for Improved Outcomes in Ankle Rehabilitation
The purpose of this project is to compare a novel sensorimotor ankle rehabilitation training (SMART) protocol for Lateral ankle sprains (LASs) against a standard of care (SOC) protocol to determine if it is more successful at producing successful one-year outcomes and lower rates of re-injury and improved health. This will …
Auditory Biofeedback Gait Training Individuals With Chronic Ankle Instability
The goal of this randomized clinical controlled trial is examine the effects of gait training with auditory biofeedback (AudFB) on gait biomechanics, clinical measures of ankle joint health, and patient-centered outcomes. The following specific aims will achieve this objective: Specific Aim 1: Determine if a 6-week gait training with AudFB …
A Mobile Recovery Guidance App for Children and Young Adults With Acute Ankle Inversion Injuries
Ankle sprains are the most common musculoskeletal complaint of children presenting to the emergency department (ED). Healing can often be protracted, leading to prolonged pain, missed school and work, and delayed return to a normal activity level. Smartphone apps have been shown to be associated with greater caregiver knowledge and …
Effect of Eccentric Streching vs IASTM of Gastrocnemius and Soleus Muscles in Athletes With Ankle Sprain
The primary objective within the current study is to compare the acute and chronic effects of eccentric training and IASTM on the dorsiflexion ROM. To reduce the risk of Achilles tendinopathy, stretching and eccentric (lengthening) exercises are postulated to improve ankle dorsiflexion. An eccentric exercise lengthens an active muscle while …
Strain Counterstrain Technique and Graston Technqiue on Quadratus Lumborum Trigger Points
Poor body mechanics and posture affects body positioning and stresses quadratus lumborum muscle which ultimately leads to myofascial trigger points in muscle. This study aims to compare the effects of Strain counterstrain technique and Graston technique on trigger points of quadratus lumborum in nonspecific low back patients. This study will …
Effect of a Short-term Multi-strain Probiotic Supplementation in Endurance Athletes
The aim of this project is to evaluate and identify the effect of a short-term 2-week multi-strain probiotic (MPRO) supplementation on the exercise-associated gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and perturbations in high level female athletes of the Polish national team during strictly controlled conditions of a training camp, based on recommendations for …
Spinal and Supraspinal Control in Chronic Ankle Instability
Ankle sprains are common sports injuries that often lead to chronic ankle instability (CAI). Patients with CAI experience deficits in neuromuscular control (NMC), including proprioception and strength. It is believed that damage to the ankle's ligament mechanoreceptors and the peroneal nerve after the initial ankle sprain can cause alterations in …
