Treatment of O2 naïve patients with PAH will be included in this investigator-initiated trial (IIT) to assess efficacy and safety of oxygen substitution. Nocturnal oxygen substitution improved the 6MWD compared to placebo in one clinical trial in PAH patients. Due to the positive results in the treatment of patients with PAH, the initiation of this proof-of-concept study is justified.
This study evaluates the feasibility and effectiveness of an oropharyngeal exercise (O-PE) regimen in treating post-stroke obstructive sleep apnea, as an alternative therapy to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Eligible patients will be randomized (1:1) to treatment using a pre-specified schedule of O-PEs vs. a sham control arm.
To test the efficacy of motorized cryotherapy on early effusion, and pain after ACL reconstruction
The aim of this study is to determine if umbilical cord Wharton's jelly derived mesenchymal stem cells implanted in sub-tenon space have beneficial effects on visual functions in retinitis pigmentosa patients by reactivating the degenerated photoreceptors in dormant phase.
A randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled first in human study in approximately 36 male healthy subjects and approximately 20 male and female patients with active UC who have had an inadequate response to or demonstrated intolerance to 5-ASA.
45 female participants with short hamstring syndrome were devided into one of the three groups; Group I: suboccipital muscle inhinbition plus passive hamstring stretch, group II: Slump stretch position plus Passive hamstring stretch, and group III: Passive stretch of hamstring muscle. Assessment methods were Straight leg raising test, forward flexion test and popliteal angle test, were measured at baseline, immediately after 1st treatment session then after 4 weeks of treatment.
Myofascial pain dysfunction syndrome (MPDS) is the most common reason for pain and limited function of the masticatory system. The low-level laser therapy (LLLT) and occlusal splint therapy (OST) are therapeutic options for MPDS. This study aims to evaluate the effect of LLLT and OST on pain relief and mandibular movement improvement in patients with myofascial pain.
The study was aimed to compare shoulder proprioception in chronic mechanical cervical pain to a matched normal group. This study include 2 groups, 40 subjects with mechanical chronic cervical pain and 40 healthy subjects representing the control group. The primary outcome measure was the shoulder proprioception test of both upper limbs during active repositioning and quantified with angular displacement error.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a pervasive, insidious condition associated with catastrophic socioeconomic, healthcare and personal implications. This proposal outlines how a group singing intervention, led by clinical personnel and a community singing leader, can address these challenges. Built upon existing ties between the Principal Investigator (PI) and local COPD support group, this project is co-designed by patients and clinicians. Modelled on similar interventions internationally, this project is pioneering in Ireland. Outputs will include a participant-led symposium and three community COPD choirs, in addition to a number of academic publications. This project is funded by the Irish Research Council (IRC) "New Foundations" scheme.
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of abdominal massage with senna-based laxative in managing overflow retentive stool incontinence in pediatrics.
