Acute Effects of Cold Exposure on Cardiovascular System
This is a randomized controlled human exposure crossover study. Investigators aim to assess the acute effects of low temperature exposure on cardiovascular system and the underlying mechanisms.
Effect of Caffeine on Cold-stimulated Brown Adipose Tissue Activity
The purpose of the study is to asses brown adipose tissue activity after a cold mild stimulus, preceded by 200mg caffeine or placebo administration.
Effectiveness of Vibratory Versus Cold Stimuli on Pain Perception in Children
Local anesthesia is an anxiety-provoking procedure. Pain control is important for effective behavior guidance, specially among pediatric patients. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Buzzy® as a topical anesthetic in pain perception through two ways: once using vibration mode without the cold pack and the other using the …
Omega-3 Fatty Acids as Regulators of Brown Adipose Tissue During Cold Exposure
This clinical trial will assess the whether fish oil supplementation can modulate brown fat activation, shivering, thermal comfort and skin blood flow during cold exposure.
Effect of Helfer Skin Tap and Cold Application on Pain and Hemodynamics During Vaccination
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of local cold application using the Helfer Skin Tap Technique on pain levels during the intramuscular injection of the tetanus vaccine in pregnant women. The study will also record vital signs, which are among the physiological effects of pain.
Effect of a 16-day Hot and Cold Acclimation on Adaptive Responses and Health-related Indicators
There are no previous studies of the effects of a combination of whole-body immersions in hot and cold baths on adaptive responses and health-related markers. Thus, the primary aim of this project is to determine whether interventions consisting of whole body immersion in hot and cold baths over 16 days …
An Investigation of Different Type Single Limb Exercise Training Effects in Copd
COPD presents not only respiratory symtoms but also vascular or muscle dysfunction. Exercise limitation is observed in COPD. Especially, decreased exercise performance related to vascular and fatique in quadriceps muscle. Exercise training is important for aerobic performance increasing. Generally results show exercise training with both lower limb. Increaed arterial stiffness …
Combined Zephyr Valve System With Inter-lobar Fissure Completion for Lung Volume Reduction in Emphysema
The purpose of this protocol is to perform a pilot prospective randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate the potential role of lung fissure completion strategy (experimental intervention) in addition to endobronchial valve (EBV) placement (representing "standard-of-care") in select patients with severe COPD/emphysema and with evidence for <95% fissure completion between …
Inter-lobar Fissure Completion in Patients With Failed Bronchoscopic Lung Volume Reduction
The purpose of this protocol is to perform a pilot prospective controlled clinical trial to evaluate the potential role of lung fissure completion with pleural adhesiolysis strategy (experimental intervention) in severe emphysema/COPD patients with failed bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR) via the use of endobronchial valves (EBVs) therapy. In select …
Airway Bypass - Safety and Feasibility Study
The objective of this study is to evaluate its safety and feasibility of the Airway Bypass Stent System in patients with severe emphysema. The study will collect clinical data through 12 months to assess procedural and device safety.
