There are about 3285 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Pakistan. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The purpose of this study is to determine the supplemental effects of ELDOA in addition to thoracic manipulation on upper back pain, thoracic kyphosis and forward head posture in thoracic hypomobility.
This study is a randomised controlled trial and the purpose of this study is to determine the Effects of Mulligan mobilization with movement as compared to Kaltenborn joint mobilization in the management of knee osteoarthritis." To determine the effects of Mulligan MWM as compared to Kaltenborn joint mobilization in terms of pain, function, range of motion and gait in persons with knee osteoarthritis.
Joint mobilization and resistance exercise training are effective conservative treatment options for the management of osteoarthritis. However, currently no study has highlighted the supplementary effects of resistance training in addition to joint mobilization in people suffering from knee osteoarthritis. The current study is aimed at bridging the gap in literature and providing evidence regarding the additive impact of resistance training to joint mobilization in knee osteoarthritis.
to determine the supplementary effects of Kaltenborn sustained stretch mobilization when combined with resistance training in the management of knee osteoarthritis.

This clinical trial aims to analyze the effects of concurrent vs aerobic training on glycemic control, ABI, functional capacity and disease-specific QOL among patients with Type-II DM-associated PAD at baseline & after 12 weeks of intervention. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is concurrent training more effective than aerobic training in improving glycemic control among patients with Type-II DM-associated PAD? 2. Is concurrent training more effective than aerobic training in improving ABI among patients with Type-II DM-associated PAD? 3. Is concurrent training more effective than aerobic training in enhancing functional capacity among patients with Type-II DM-associated PAD? 4. Is concurrent training more effective than aerobic training in improving QOL among patients with Type-II DM-associated PAD? Signed informed consent will be taken before participation. For exercise training, Both will perform Warm up for 10 - 12 minutes, followed by 30 - 60 minutes of training protocol and then Cool down exercises for 10 - 12 minutes.
