Evaluation of Catching Skills in Preschoolers With Motor Difficulties
This research project investigates the development of predictive and online motor control in preschool-aged boys with typical development and those with motor difficulties, specifically children at risk for Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD). The study is being conducted as part of a doctoral dissertation at the Faculty of Sports Studies, Masaryk …
Relationship Between Swallowing Dynamics and Suprahyoid Muscle Activity in Sarcopenic Dysphagia
Sarcopenic dysphagia is defined as swallowing difficulty among the elderly due to the loss of whole body skeletal and swallowing muscle mass and function. However, the pathophysiology and dynamics of swallowing in sarcopenic dysphagia have been poorly investigated. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate the characteristics of sarcopenic dysphagia …
Optimal PEEP Level for Minimizing the Risk of Postoperative Atelectasis: A Retrospective Cohort Study Based on Lung Ultrasound Monitoring
Background: After surgery with general anesthesia, it is common for parts of the lungs to collapse, a condition called atelectasis. This can lead to low blood oxygen levels and other lung complications. Doctors use a setting on the breathing machine called PEEP (Positive End-Expiratory Pressure) to help keep the lungs …
Investigation of Catastrophizing of Pain Reported by Parents in JIA Patients
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the primary rheumatic disease reported to affect the pediatric population. Research suggests that parents' thoughts and feelings about their child's pain, specifically with JIA diagnosis, may influence treatment compliance. Considering that this situation may also affect children's adherence to treatment, the identification and management of …
Diagnostic DNA Methylation Signature in Diagnosing Thyroid Cancer After Fine-Needle Aspiration in Patients With Thyroid Nodules
This trial studies how well the diagnostic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methylation signature works in detecting thyroid cancer in patients with thyroid nodules. Using diagnostic testing, such as the diagnostic DNA methylation signature, may be a less invasive way to check for thyroid cancer.
Interview of Patients With HR+/HER2- Metastatic Breast Cancer Who Received Capivasertib + Fulvestrant
A cross-sectional, non-interventional, observational study using qualitative patient interviews to explore patient experiences and attitudes toward taking capivasertib + fulvestrant as directed
Modulation of Cortical Brain Activity During Attentional Control
The goal of this study is to determine whether an open-loop sham neurofeedback system can effectively modulate EEG alpha rhythms, which are associated with attentional control. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does positive sham neurofeedback lead to a decrease in relative EEG alpha power compared to a …
A Portable Thoracic Impedance Device for Detecting Pulmonary Congestion in Heart Failure Patients
This study investigates a portable thoracic bioimpedance tomography (TBIT) device designed to detect early lung congestion in heart failure patients. The main goal is to evaluate how well the device's measurements match those obtained from lung ultrasound and other imaging techniques. By detecting lung fluid build-up before symptoms worsen, this …
Prognostic Value of Cerebrospinal Fluid Immunoglobulin Free Light Chains in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease of the central nervous system, usually presenting as clinically isolated syndrome (CIS). The course of MS following first symptoms is unpredictable, as approximately 30% of patients with MS have a benign course and don't develop significant disability while another 20-30% progress …
Comparison of Uterine Distension in Hysterosonography Among Patients Monitored for Infertility
Comparison of differences in distension by volumetric analysis of the uterus before and after distension between groups of infertile and apparently fertile women.
