Smartphone-based Self-Management Support Program to Enhance Quality of Life in Patients With COPD
The goal of this study is to find out if a smartphone-based program (called 3S-C) can help people with COPD live better, healthier lives. It will also look at how the program affects their knowledge, habits, and overall health. The main questions the study wants to answer are: Does the …
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Plus Exercise for Older People With Chronic Low-back Pain: A Pragmatic Cluster Randomised Controlled Trial
Low back pain (LBP) is the fifth-most common disorder among older adults 60 years or older. The prevalence of LBP increases with age, with the highest prevalence occurring at 85 years old. Because many older individuals face various age-related life challenges (e.g., comorbidities, financial difficulties, and bereavement), the addition of …

Cumulative and Booster Effects of Multisession Prefrontal TDCS in ASD Adolescents
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by disturbances in communication, poor social skills, and aberrant behavior. To date, ASD has no known cure, and the disorder remains a highly disabling condition. Recently, transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS), a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, has shown great promise as a …
The Effect of Intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation on Brain Characteristics, Pain Intensity, and Cognitive Functions in Older People with Chronic Musculoskeletal Pain.
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the effects of accelerated intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS) on pain relief and cognitive function in older adults with chronic musculoskeletal pain. It will also utilize magnetic resonance imaging to illustrate the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying the role of iTBS in improving …
Intravenous Methadone for Sternotomy Pain Control in Cardiac Surgery
Background Postoperative pain is significant in cardiac surgical patients. Perioperative analgesia with intermittent administration of opioids can result in significant fluctuations in serum opioid concentrations. Methadone should provide a rapid onset and long-term pain relief upon a single intravenous dose at induction of anaesthesia, and may reduce chronic postsurgical pain …
Accelerated iTBS for Depression: Monitoring Brain Hemodynamics With Simultaneous iTBS/fNIRS
This study will investigate the cortical hemodynamic response variability of an accelerated form of TBS stimulation over left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) using a concurrent TBS/fNIRS setup. The accelerating TMS protocol that will be used in this study is similar to the Stanford Accelerated Intelligent Neuromodulation Therapy (SAINT), i.e., fifty …
Intermittent Theta-burst Stimulation for Mild Cognitive Impairment
The objectives of this study are to: Evaluating the Impact of iTBS on Cognitive and Physical Functions: The investigators will investigate the efficacy of intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), focusing on its effects on dual-task walking abilities, balance abilities, and cognitive function. Comparing …
A Single Arm Pilot Study of the Chinese Herbal Medicine Formula (SCD-2101) for the Functional Constipation in the Elderly
This single-arm, open-label pilot clinical trial will test the hypothesis that SCD-2101, a Chinese herbal medicine formula, will have efficacy in alleviating constipation in elderly individuals with functional constipation. All participants (n=14) will receive 2 weeks of intervention and 2 weeks of follow-up.
A Prototype AI Algorithm Versus Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) Criteria in Diagnosing HCC on CT
This study aims to prospective validate this AI algorithm in comparison with the current standard of radiological reporting in a randomized manner in the at-risk population undergoing triphasic contrast CT. This research project is totally independent and separated from the actual clinical reporting of the CT scan by the duty …
