The Low energy shockwave has a significant effect on the permeability of tissue. Consequently, it might be used to deliver a substance such as Acetic acid. Accordingly, Shockwave might help to improve the outcomes with calcaneal spur patients. Therefore, the present study might help in the treatment of calcaneal spur patients and also might improve the quality of life in a fast and efficient way.
In breast cancer patients, limitation of shoulder joint movement occurs following mastectomy surgery. Studies have reported that damage to the fascia on the pectoralis major muscle during mastectomy surgery contributes to the development of the limitation. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of release techniques applied to the fascia on the pectoralis major muscle and the fascial chain on the incerasing of shoulder joint range of motion.
In breast cancer patients, limitation of shoulder joint movement may occur following cancer treatment. Shoulder limitation causes a significant decrease in the patient's participation in activities of daily living. The aim of the study is to define these limitations, to evaluate in detail all the structures that cause the problem, and to determine the causes of the limitations in patients with shoulder joint movement limitation developed after breast cancer survivors.
The primary aim of the study is to investigate the effects of supervised exercise, telerehabilitation and home-based exercise on patient perception in patients who have undergone bone tumor resection. The secondary aim of the study is to identify the barriers to starting exercise in these patients.
To study and evaluate the effect of using the Primary Relief PENS treatment as adjuvant analgesia for reducing pain in total knee replacement (TKR) patients.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of SLS-002 (intranasal racemic ketamine) in addition to standard of care on symptoms of depression and suicidality in adults with Major Depressive Disorder who are at imminent risk for suicide.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a competition season on shoulder periarticular structures, muscle strength, muscle endurance, joint range of motion and upper extremity performance in young swimmers.
This study aims to determine the effect of combined facilitatory Kinesiology and inhibitory Kinesiology taping on balance and ROM in university students with calf tightness. This study will also compare Inhibitory kinesiology taping on calf muscles with combined Inhibitory and Facilitatory kinesiology taping on tight Calf and weak Tibialis anterior respectively This randomized clinical trial will include 20 university students with calf tightness according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Subjects will be assessed by using silfverskiold test for calf tightness and star excursion test for dynamic balance. Baseline measurements will be documented and the subjects will be randomly assigned to two interventions by Goldfish Bowl randomization method: Facilitatory kinesiology taping on calf muscles (Intervention 1 or group A) and Inhibitory kinesiology taping on calf Muscles combined with Facilitatory kinesiology taping on Tibialis Anterior (Intervention 2 or group B). Immediate effects of taping on balance will be assessed after 20 minutes. After that follow up will be maintained and participants will be assessed again after 72 hours. At the end, these measurements will be documented and compared with baseline readings. And changes will be noted down. The data will be entered and analyzed using SPSS 25.
Anxiety is a growing problem and has been steadily increasing, particularly in the adolescent and young adult populations in the past 24 years. Music and auditory beat stimulation (ABS) in the theta frequency range (4-7 Hz) are sound-based anxiety treatments that have been investigated in prior studies with subjective measures of anxiety. Here, the anxiety-reducing potential of calm music combined with theta ABS will be examined in a large sample of participants with objective psychophysiological measures (heart rate variability and EEG), stress hormone measures (salivary cortisol) along with subjective measures (STICSA state). Participants with moderate trait anxiety (n = 100) will be randomly assigned to a single 24-minute session of sound-based treatment: combined (music & ABS), or pink noise (control). Pre- and post-intervention heart rate variability and EEG band power (alpha, beta, delta, and theta bands), along with somatic and cognitive state anxiety measures (STICSA State) will be collected along with trait anxiety (STICSA Trait), and musical preferences (Short Test of Music Preferences). Our hypothesis is that the music & ABS condition will have significantly higher EEG theta band activity and heart rate variability compared to the pink noise control condition. The investigators also expect to see significantly reduces higher state anxiety reduction in the music & ABS condition compared to the pink noise control condition. Participants with moderate trait anxiety (n = 100) will be randomly assigned to a single 24-minute session of sound-based treatment: combined (music & ABS), or pink noise (control). Pre- and post-intervention heart rate variability and EEG band power (alpha, beta, delta, and theta bands), along with somatic and cognitive state anxiety measures (STICSA State) will be collected along with trait anxiety (STICSA Trait), and musical preferences (Short Test of Music Preferences). The investigators predict that the music & ABS condition will have significantly increased power in the theta and alpha bands, higher heart rate variability, higher state anxiety reduction, and lower salivary cortisol levels compared to the pink noise control condition.
Chronic anxiety is a growing psychological challenge worldwide and at pre-clinical levels, can be disabling. Some research suggests music may reduce anxiety symptoms as effectively as anti-anxiety drugs without the adverse side effects. The iso principle suggests that the effectiveness of music interventions for mood management can be maximized by commencing a session with music that matches an individual's current emotional state and then gradually moving toward their desired emotional state. Our previous work demonstrated that a playlist generated by a music recommendation system that uses the iso-principal, along with music informatics, auditory beat stimulation, and reinforcement learning can reduce somatic and cognitive anxiety. However, it is unknown whether music playlists based on the iso-principal alone can reduce anxiety. In this study, the investigators wish to examine whether music playlists (~30 min long) based on the iso-principal (neutral to calm) will reduce anxiety after anxiety induction compared to a calm music playlist. The investigators hypothesize that the iso-principal playlist will have greater state anxiety reduction compared to the calm playlist.
