Pharmacological and Non-pharmacological Treatment Effects on Children With Different Predicted Myopia Progression Rate
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment effects on the children with different predicted myopia progression rate measured by modified multifocal electroretinogram. The main questions it aims to answer are: the effectiveness of using 0.05% atropine and prescribing DIMS lens for myopia control in …
Movement Quality and Balance Improvement in People With Chronic Low Back Pain Following Trunk Muscle Training
The goal of this project is to assess if Chronic Low Back Pain (CLBP) participant's movement quality and balance variables can change after training that decreases their pain and disability. It will also compare the difference between structural exercise (SE) and isolated trunk exercise (ITE). The main questions it aims …
Magnetic Guided Counetrtraction During Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a technique that allows curative treatment of early gastrointestinal neoplasia with organ preservation. However, it is a technically demanding procedure. Tissue traction plays a vital role in facilitating the visualization of the cutting line and the submucosal vessels, which usually only relies on the hood …
Chair-bound Exergaming in Pre-frail/ Frail Older Adults in Nursing Home
This pilot randomized controlled trial is designed to investigate the effectiveness of chair-bound exergaming on improving physical and cognitive function in pre-frail/ frail nursing home residents
Powering Up Stroke Rehabilitation Through HIIT
Objectives: To investigate the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on musculoskeletal fitness in chronic stroke survivors. Hypothesis to be tested: HIIT, performed on a recumbent stepper, will significantly enhance muscle power in chronic stroke survivors when compared with moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) Design and subjects: Assessor-blinded, stratified, randomised, placebo-controlled …
Training Secondary School Students as Anti-smoke Ambassadors Using the Service-learning Model
