Exercised induced hypoalgesia (EIH) (reduction in pain) after exercise has been studied in the literature, but no comparisons have been made specifically looking at different types of exercise (isometric/dynamic moving through a range of motion with resistance versus isotonic/applying static resistance to a joint not moving) with neck muscle strengthening. This study will explore to see if one form of exercise is superior to the other in providing EIH. Another benefit of exercise is improving proprioception (knowing where our body is in space). Again no specific investigation has been done comparing isometric versus isotonic exercises for neck muscles. Both of these exercises are often prescribed in physical therapy so further understanding the benefits of them can help improve the prescription of exercises for patients.
In our study, the treatment plan for the case prior to the breast tumor counseling will be asked to physician and the treatment protocol observed by the primary physician will be observed after the decision of the tumor council.
While methotrexate (MTX) remains a treatment of choice for patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriasis (PsO) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA), long-term MTX use has been shown to be associated with liver fibrosis and cirrhosis in these patients. In addition, gut dysbiosis has been found to be associated with liver fibrosis and cirrhosis via the gut-liver axis, underscoring the potential role of gut microbiota and bacterial translocation in the pathogenesis of chronic liver diseases in these patients. In this study, we aim to assess the prevalence of advanced liver fibrosis or cirrhosis among these patients on MTX treatment compared to those without, using transient elastography. We also aim to identify the possible risk factor(s) for advanced liver fibrosis or cirrhosis among them. Further, we aim to characterize the difference in fecal microbiota patterns among these three groups of patients. Using a cross-sectional, prospective cohort design, this study will enroll approximately 600 eligible patients, including 300 patients with PsO/PsA and 300 patients with RA, to examine the following hypotheses: 1. Patients on higher cumulative dose of MTX will have higher prevalence of advanced liver fibrosis or cirrhosis compared to those on lower cumulative dose of MTX; 2. Patients with MTX use will have higher prevalence of advanced liver fibrosis or cirrhosis compared to those without MTX use; 3. The fecal microbiota composition will be different between patients with and without MTX treatment; and 4. The fecal microbiota composition will be different between patients with and without advanced fibrosis/cirrhosis while on MTX treatment.
The purpose of this study is to compare the temperature measured from the cuff surface of the endotracheal tube and core temperature measured at the esophagus in living donor liver transplantation recipients.
The aims of this study are to: 1. Evaluate peripheral and central auditory and vestibular function in group of adults with idiopathic PD. 2. Determine the relationship between the presence of significant auditory and vestibular dysfunctions to patients' demographic, clinical (motor and non-motor manifestations) and treatment variables
this study will be done to detect the best management of temporo-mandibular joint anterior disc displacement without reduction, for diagnosis, we use MRI on the TMJ to detect status of the disc and joint space, for management, we try to select best operation as discopexy, discectomy with or without replacement, and we follow up the patients and detect side effects and effect for each operation
The goal of this bioequivalence study is to determine and compare the rate and extent of absorption and to evaluate safety of test and reference formulations. Study Design: An open label, randomized, two-treatment, four-period, two-sequence replicate crossover bioequivalence study in 46 healthy Thai volunteers under fasting conditions with at least 7 days washout period.
The overall objective of the proposed study is to determine if Dexmedetomidine HCl (BXCL501) is safe for treatment of alcohol use disorder (AUD) with comorbid posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in an outpatient setting and also shows potential signals of efficacy thereby supporting the conduct of later phase clinical trials.
