Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The CIRCA-CHEM study is a non-pharmacological, randomized cross-over health intervention trial studying the effect of the time of day on the metabolism and concomitant toxicity of exposures to pesticides found in a balanced fruits and vegetables diet, providing the same weekly portions of fruit and vegetables (isopesticide dietary scheme) but consumed in two different time windows (morning vs. night).

NCT ID: NCT04170036 Completed - Clinical trials for To Study the Effects of Protein Supplements on Blood Tests

Do High Doses of Protein Supplements Affect Serum Lipid Profiles?

Start date: March 15, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Protein supplements are widely used among people going to the gym. The effects of these substances on blood biochemical, hematological, inflammatuary, glucose metabolism markers and lipid profile is not well known. The previous studies on this issue give inconclusive results. So the investigators aimed to investigate this subject and compare the blood tests between subjects using and not using protein supplements.

NCT ID: NCT04162886 Completed - Clinical trials for Physical Performance

Effects of Exercises on Physical Performance

Start date: November 18, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Aim: The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of thrower's ten exercises on the upper extremity performance in healthy sedentary individuals. Method: 36 healthy sedentary men and women aged 18-35 years will be included in the study. Subjects will be divided into two groups: exercise and control. The exercise group will be given Thrower's Ten training sessions 3 times a week over an 8-week period. Before and after the study, the subjects were tested for dynamic balance on the upper extremity with the Upper Limp Y balance test and for explosive power with the medicine ball throw test. Moreover, the strength of the shoulder rotator muscles was measured with an isokinetic dynamometer at a speed of 60º/sec.

NCT ID: NCT04061174 Completed - Clinical trials for Work-Related Condition

Effects of Shoulder Stabilization Exercises in the Office Workers With Shoulder Protraction

Start date: October 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Office workers continuously work with the forward head posture. Forward head posture may cause upper extremity problems in the office workers due to the increase in the load on the muscles and joints of the cervical spine. This working posture may cause scapular rotation downward, increase in activation of the scapular muscles, pain, limited range of motion (ROM) and poor proprioception, which can create a vicious circle. Especially in the office workers that using computer vibration sensation reduction and upper extremity problems are seen. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of shoulder stabilization exercises on scapular dyskinesis, muscle strength, posture and proprioceptive sensory parameters in addition to office exercises in the office workers with shoulder protraction.

NCT ID: NCT04019990 Completed - Shoulder Pain Clinical Trials

Throwers Ten Exercises On Upper Extremity Function and Explosive Power in Wheelchair Basketball and Basketball Players

Start date: July 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Basketball is a challenging sport that requires participants to demonstrate physical fitness and special athletic skills at high levels. Players avoid contact while attempting to prevent the opponent from running, passing and shooting. Although basketball includes avoiding contact as a rule, contact between players is inevitable. Various injuries occur in basketball because it is a contact sport and includes sudden movements, such as bouncing, running and turning. Wheelchair (WC) basketball is characterised by manoeuvres and high-intensity activities such as rolling, rebounding, passing and overhead shooting. In WC basketball players, thoracic kyphosis is increased because of atrophy of the upper back and shoulders muscles resulting from the body posture required for WC propulsion in the sitting position as well as the effect of gravity. This sitting posture is characterised by scapular protraction and internal rotation of the humerus, and it impedes shoulder movements during upper-extremity use. Overhead throwing is a movement that involves high speed and repetitive movement that leads to upper-extremity injuries. It is important to develop muscle strength and proprioception to protect against these injuries. Throwers Ten exercise programme is a programme designed to improve the power, strength and endurance of large muscle groups required for the throwing activity. It consists of exercises involving the movement of upper limb joints in full range of joint motion (ROM) or at specified specific angles, with the help of a resistance band and weights specific to individual athletes. In the literature, no study has demonstrated the effectiveness of Throwers Ten exercise programme in these sports groups. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Throwers Ten exercise programme on upper-extremity function and explosive power in the WC basketball players and stand-up basketball players.
