NCT ID: NCT06048237 Completed - Clinical trials for Asymptomatic Condition

Investigating Diaphragm Thickness and Mobility in Healthy Parous and Nulliparous Volunteers Using RUSI

Start date: June 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the intra-rater and inter-rater reliability of diaphragm thickness and excursion measurements by applying Rehabilitative Ultrasound Imaging (RUSI) in a diverse cohort of healthy women, including nulliparous and parous across varying age groups. The diaphragm, which is primarily a respiratory muscle, is also considered to contribute to spinal stability. Utilizing RUSI, a non-invasive and cost-effective imaging modality, we intend to examine diaphragm parameters. Preliminary evidence highlights a potential link between diaphragm dysfunction and musculoskeletal conditions such as lumbopelvic pain. This research hypothesizes that understanding diaphragm behavior in different pathologies, including postpartum recovery and lower back pain, can contribute to tailored rehabilitation strategies, potentially benefiting a wide range of clinical conditions, and facilitating the assessment of intervention effectiveness. Additionally, this study addresses the lack of research on the diaphragm's role in postpartum rehabilitation and offers novel insights into its reliability, particularly within this demographic.

NCT ID: NCT05899244 Completed - Clinical trials for Asymptomatic Condition

Influence of Muscle Stretching and Neural Mobilizations on Lower Limbs Range of Motion in Asymptomatic Subjects.

Start date: June 15, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

First, this study aims to use the straight leg raising test (SLR) and the knee angle extension test (KEA) test associated to a structural differentiation to determine the limitation of the lower limb (muscular or nervous) in asymptomatic subjects. Second, this study will try to determine the most efficient exercice to increase range of motion of the lower limb in function of subjects limitation type (muscular, nervous,) using neural mobilization (sliders or tensioners) and muscle stretching. Two groups will be constituted for each test (SLR and KEA) based on the limitation defined during the test: Group 1: Muscle limitation Group 2: Neural limitation Each group will be subdivided in four subgroups depending on the intervention participants will receive: - subgroup 1: Muscle stretching group - subgroup 2: Neural tensioner group - subgroup 3: Neural slider group - subgroup 4: Control group Participants from groups 1,2 and 3 will be asked to do an exercice every day during 31 days, independently of their subgroup allocation. Participants from group 1 will perform a muscle stretching technique during 20 second twice a day. Participants from group 2 will do 10 repetitions of tensioner twice a day. Participants from group 3 will do 10 repetitions of a slider twice a day. Subgroup comparisons of the evolution of the range of motion during SLR and KEA before and after the month of exercice will determine which technique is the most efficient for a specific type of limitation.

NCT ID: NCT05377164 Completed - Clinical trials for Asymptomatic Condition

Long Term Effects of Different Dietary Protocols on Determinants of Health in Patients' Lymphocytes

FTIR
Start date: May 20, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Food choices and eating habits play an important role in the management of common noncommunicable diseases, i.e. diabetes type II, hypertension, metabolic syndrome and others. However, for many popular diets there is yet no consensus on their actual ability to exert health effects and, regardless of some promising results, the underlying molecular mechanisms are not entirely clear. FTIR analysis could provide interesting new information; we therefore propose the analysis of lymphocytes isolated from the peripheral blood of participants who had been on vegan, ketogenic or normal mixed diet for at least one year. In particular we plan to monitor differences in lipid peroxidation, membrane permeability, protein synthesis and DNA damage. All these parameters are important in the development of the above mentioned diseases and were previously shown to be detectable by FTIR. The results will contribute importantly to the understanding of the long-term effects of the respective lifestyle and will allow the formulation of better dietary recommendations to the public.

NCT ID: NCT05210231 Completed - Clinical trials for Asymptomatic Condition

Effects of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on Rotator Cuff Fatigue.

Start date: March 7, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study will be to determine the effects of active tDCS on rotator cuff fatigue. This study will be a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, cross-over clinical trial based on non-probabilistic sampling for convenience, comprising a sample of 20 active asymptomatic subjects of all genders and aged between 18 and 35 years old. Subjects will be recruited via social networks, WhatsApp and emails and must be currently engaged in moderate physical activity (assessed by the IPAQ questionnaire) and asymptomatic at the time of assessment. In addition, participants will be asked not to perform any type of strenuous exercise and do not drink alcoholic or caffeinated beverages during the time the work is performed. The study will consist of three sessions, with an interval of 72 hours between them.

NCT ID: NCT04741893 Completed - Faecal Incontinence Clinical Trials

Anal Canal Functional Assessment Using EndoFLIP

Start date: August 14, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Faecal incontinence (FI) is characterized by involuntary loss of rectal content through the anal canal. FI is psychologically and socially debilitating problem that can dramatically affect patient's quality of life, often in otherwise healthy individual. FI can occur as a result of obstetric sphincter injury, surgery, irradiation, anorectal malformations as well as neurological, connective tissue or endocrine disorders. Currently management options for these patients are limited, partly due to the fact that control of defaecation and continence is multifactorial but also due to the fact that FI is difficult to identify the exact cause of patients' incontinence. Current assessment of patients with FI include endoscopic assessment to rule out intraluminal organic cause for patients' symptoms, endoanal ultrasound scan / MRI to assess their pelvic floor anatomy and anorectal manometry to assess anorectal function. Anorectal manometry is a simple test to perform but Anorectal manometry is susceptible to measurement artifacts, with a high inter-individual variation with significant overlap between healthy asymptomatic and symptomatic patients with FI. Harris et al in 1966 suggested that the anal sphincter's resistance to distension that may be of importance for sphincter competence, not how tight anal sphincter can squeeze. Endoluminal Functional Lumen Imaging Probe (EndoFLIP©) is a novel technology used to measure the dimensions and function of a hollow organ. Limited publication so far has shown that EndoFLIP© provides a new way of assessing anal sphincter competence. The study is to assess the use of EndoFLIP© to assess anal sphincter function in Hong Kong population. Firstly to evaluate whether age has an effect on the distensibility of the anal sphincter and its function and secondly to compare between symptomatic patients with faecal incontinence and asymptomatic healthy subjects.

NCT ID: NCT04578626 Completed - Clinical trials for Temporomandibular Joint

Ultrasounds Evaluation of Asymptomatic Perimandibular Muscles Treated With Dry Needling

Start date: January 6, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The articular disc of temporomandibular joint and three muscles of the cervico-facial region (temporal, masseter, sternocleidomastoid) are evaluated by means of sonographic images to observe and measure their dimensions' changes after a dry needling intervention. The participants are asymptomatic subjects and will be randomly divided in 2 groups: half of them are treated on the right side of the face, while the other half on the left side. Our hypothesis is that ultrasonography can reveal changes in the structures measured on the treated side.
