Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess the clinical efficacy of fractional CO2 laser-assisted delivery of a topically applied anesthetic to the perceived pain during filler injection.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test ketone bodies in healthy elderly and young individuals. The main question it aims to answer are: • Do ketone bodies improve skeletal muscle function? Participants will ingest a ketone monoester and skeletal muscle function will then be evaluated by: - Special magnetic imaging techniques - Intravenous infusion of tracer-marked nutrients - Performance tests on a ergometer bike and in a dynamometer Researchers will compare the outcomes between within the young and elderly groups and between the young and the elderly group to investigate if age has an effect on the outcomes.
The MidWest multidisciplinary Community Intervention Teams (MD-CIT) comprise of specialist, healthcare teams that provide a rapid and integrated response to a patient with an acute episode of illness who requires enhanced services/acute intervention for a defined short period of time in the MidWest of Ireland. This is provided in the patient's home, thereby facilitating early discharge from the acute hospital setting. The investigators are performing an evaluation of the MDCIT service provided to older adults admitted to UL Hospitals Group. The investigators will assess patients in hospital, at 30 days and at a six months.
The objectives of the present research is to observe the effects of a multimodal program with augmented reality on cognition, functional fitness, quality of life, and physical activity in older people.
In this randomized controlled trial the effect of 4 months of multi-component (strength, balance, cognition, endurance) exercise training intervention on measures of neuromuscular performance, cognition, and endurance as well as neural adaptations on a central and peripheral level is investigated. 40 subjects are recruited that are generally health and between 60 and 80 years of age. The interventions is based around exercises, where different tasks have to be solved simultaneously rather than serially, as has previously been done.
To determine the efficacy of a dual-task tai ji quan training therapy in reducing the incidence of falls in older adults with mild cognitive impairment.
EGF is a polypeptide that promotes cell differentiation and collagen production while decreasing melanin production. This study is designed to study its effectiveness in improving the texture and appearance of facial skin after daily topical application. We hypothesized that EGF would improve facial skin hydration, elasticity, pigmentation, and wrinkles.
The effect of L-Citrulline is well studied in relation to muscle strength, exhaustion, exercise performance, and endothelial function in health and disease. This study will extend current body of knowledge and will investigate the effect of L-Citrulline on brain vascular function.
The aim of this interventional study is thus to assess and highlight the cognitive, physical, and psychosocial benefits of a combined physical and cognitive training program in an enriched environment and to assess the factors influencing these benefits.
This project explores a novel means of health promotion and prevention of age-related physical frailty, which is designed to overcome barriers to access and promote autonomy in managing physical health.
