ULtrafiltration-Rate Induced CArdiac Strain (ULRICA) - Study
Patients performing chronic hemodialysis (HD) retain more or less water between dialyses. The water is removed by ultrafiltration and usually during the cleansing of waste products - the HD. The length of HD is usually the same as the time of fluid removal while sometimes this may differ. There is …
Heat Strain Prevention in Elderly Agricultural Workers
The study explores a multi-component heat strain prevention program for older agricultural workers in response to climate change. It assesses hydration, rest breaks, reflective clothing, and shade provision. Utilizing a quasi-experimental design, it targets 120 elderly workers, evaluating core temperature, heart rate, and heat strain symptoms. The goal is to …
Clinical Evaluation of Surrounding Electroacupuncture in the Treatment of Acute Lateral Ankle Sprain
Comparison and evaluation of the difference in clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture combined with surrounding acupuncture and sham electroacupuncture groups and control group (ice compress combined with brake rest group) in the treatment of ALAS by means of musculoskeletal ultrasound technique.
Optic Nerve Head Strain as Biomarker for Glaucoma
The investigators will test the hypothesis that images of the optic nerve head taken a 2 different eye pressures will yield strain estimates that are predictive of the course of glaucoma.
Multi-strain Probiotic Effects on Self-Reported Constipation
Constipation is a prevalent gastrointestinal condition. Beyond simple lifestyle measures (e.g. increasing fibre intake, hydration, levels of exercise), medical therapies are available for management. However, a sizeable number of sufferers are dissatisfied with drug treatments (either over-the-counter or prescribed), meaning there is an unmet need for alternative therapeutic strategies. Pre, …
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).
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 …
