-
Cervical position sense, core stability, and balance in university students with upper crossed syndrome
This project will test if students aged 18–30 with upper crossed syndrome have poorer neck position sense, weaker core stability, and worse postural balance than students without the condition.
-
Effectiveness of M-TAPA nerve block for pain relief after laparoscopic hysterectomy
This study tests whether the M-TAPA nerve block before surgery can reduce opioid use and pain after laparoscopic hysterectomy compared with standard pain care.
-
Upper-arm flywheel exercises to improve skills, muscle oxygenation, and reduce fatigue in teen basketball players
This trial will test whether upper-arm flywheel exercises, compared with traditional strength training, can improve shooting, passing, strength, muscle oxygenation, and reduce fatigue in healthy male adolescent basketball players aged 10–18.
-
Blood Flow Restriction During Low-Intensity Exercise in COPD
This trial tests whether adding blood flow restriction to low‑intensity aerobic exercise within a standard pulmonary rehab program improves inflammation, oxygen levels, exercise capacity, and lung function in people with COPD.
-
Inspiratory muscle training to improve breathing and core stability in bronchiectasis
This trial tests whether a program of functional inspiratory muscle training can help adults aged 18–30 with bronchiectasis strengthen their breathing muscles and improve respiratory function and core stability.
-
SNAG versus sciatic nerve mobilization for non-specific sciatica
This study will try whether a hands-on SNAG spinal glide or home-based sciatic nerve mobilization exercises work better to reduce pain and improve function in adults aged 20–50 with chronic non-specific sciatica.
-
How illness severity and death risk relate to breathing and limb muscle strength in ICU patients
This project will see if how sick ICU patients are and their risk of dying are linked to the strength of their respiratory and skeletal muscles for adults in the ICU.
-
Two Different Exercise Programs for Young Sailors
This study tests whether adding a structured land-based program to hiking bench training improves endurance, balance, muscle activity, and motor skills in competitive youth sailors aged 12–18.
-
Decision fatigue and emotional exhaustion among anesthesiologists in Turkey
This online survey will test whether higher decision fatigue is linked to greater emotional exhaustion in anesthesiologists practicing in Turkey.
-
Pre-op neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and risk of headache after spinal anesthesia
