The purpose of the study is to assess the effectiveness of an upper extremity prosthesis in improving the upper extremity function of children with cerebral palsy who have limited use of their hands. Twelve children, aged 4-17 years, who have cerebral palsy and limitations in their ability to use their hands, will be enrolled. All participants will be fitted with a 3D printed arm/hand prosthesis and receive 8 occupational therapy sessions. Each subject will be evaluated pre-treatment, post-occupational therapy sessions and at 6 months follow-up. The evaluation will include assessment of (1)passive and active arm/hand movement and (2)functional hand skills using several standardized tests. The results from the pre-treatment and the two post-treatment evaluations will be compared.
This study is intended to demonstrate that the Simplify® Cervical Artificial Disc (Simplify® Disc) is at least as safe and effective as conventional anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) when used to treat two contiguous discs from C3 to C7 following discectomy at two contiguous levels for intractable radiculopathy (arm pain and/or a neurological deficit) with neck pain or myelopathy due to abnormalities localized to the levels of the two contiguous disc spaces in subjects who are unresponsive to conservative management.
The PEQ is the first tool to measure facilitators, barriers, and preferences to exercise in people with osteoporosis.
Refractory gastroparesis is a disease characterized by a delayed gastric emptying without a mechanical obstruction. Actual treatments have a limited efficacy and gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM) is a new treatment that has demonstrated initial promising results in these patients. The investigators aims are to evaluate security and efficacy of this endoscopic treatment in participants with refractory gastroparesis.
Four healthy hookworm-naive volunteers will be exposed to 50 L3 Necator americanus larvae once and will retain infection for up to 2 years.
Patients seeking care for shoulder pain will be recruited to enroll will be randomized to one of four combined treatment groups; eccentric or traditional strengthening alone and eccentric or traditional strengthening with pain neuroscience education. Patients will be followed for 1 year.
Botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) is widely used in the clinics to reduce spasticity and improve upper limb function for post-stroke patients. However, there were no studies to compare the effect of rESWT and BoNT-A injection for treatment on spasticity.
The primary aim of the study is to investigate personal attitudes regarding mode of delivery among both medical health care professionals and non-professionals. The investigators are also investigating whether providing detailed information that might influence one's decision regarding mode of delivery (such as education on pelvic floor disorders or advantages or disadvantages of epidural anaesthesia) will change participants´ opinion how to determine their preferred mode of delivery.
