Start date: January 26, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to study the effects of probiotic supplementation on stress levels and bowel habits in healthy Saudi adults for both males and females. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does probiotic supplementation decrease stress levels? Does probiotic supplementation improve bowel habits? Researchers compared between the intervention group receiving probiotic supplements with high stress levels with a control group not receiving probiotics with high stress levels to see if probiotics decreases stress levels.

NCT ID: NCT06449300 Completed - Healthy Clinical Trials

Effects of Different Volumes of Resistance Training

Start date: November 11, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study explores the effects of varying volumes of resistance training on body composition, strength, peak power, and muscle thickness in untrained women over eight weeks. A randomized controlled trial involving 45 female college students assessed the outcomes across three groups: low-volume training (LVT) with three weekly sessions, moderate-volume training (MVT) with four weekly sessions, and high-volume training (HVT) with five weekly sessions. Participants were untrained, aged 18-65, and free from cardiovascular diseases or performance-enhancing drugs. The hypothesis suggested that moderate volume training would yield optimal muscle development, considering the potential non-linear dose-response relationship where excessive training might be detrimental. Measurements included body composition, muscle thickness, and peak power through a force platform during vertical jumps. Data analysis focused on changes in muscle thickness, strength, and body composition, with statistical significance set at p < 0.05. The study aimed to provide insights into how different training volumes affect physiological adaptations in untrained women, potentially guiding fitness regimen optimizations for similar populations.

NCT ID: NCT06447571 Active, not recruiting - Multiple Sclerosis Clinical Trials

Trunk Rehabilitation Compared to Core Stability in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis

Start date: October 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

BACKGROUND Balance, gait, community mobility, and risk of falls are often associated with trunk impairment among people with Multiple Sclerosis (PwMS). Consequently, there is a pressing need for interventions addressing these concerns and exploring the potential effects of trunk rehabilitation. LONG-TERM GOAL Offering guidance for effective plan selection, potentially included in rehabilitation guidelines for PwMS. HYPOTHESIS Trunk exercises performed in multiplanar movement on unstable surfaces incorporated with dual-tasks (DT) could improve the functional outcomes more than standard one-plane core stability exercises. SPECIFIC AIMS Investigating the effectiveness of trunk rehabilitation in PwMS and determining the optimal intervention strategy. METHODS 50 PwMS randomly assigned into two groups. Trunk Group received trunk exercises on unstable surfaces with DT training, while the Core Group underwent standard one-plane core stability exercises on stable surfaces without DT. Additionally, both received conventional treatment. Primary outcome was the trunk impairment scale (TIS). Secondary outcomes included the Berg balance scale (BBS), Timed Up and Go (TUG), Modified Falls Efficacy (FES), Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and Reintegration to Normal Living Index (RNLI). SIGNIFICANCE Enhancing our understanding of trunk exercises' benefits and providing valuable guidance to clinicians for choosing the optimal treatment plan.

NCT ID: NCT06446375 Completed - Healthy Clinical Trials

FIFA 11+ Kids Training Protocol and Physical Performance

Start date: August 10, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study evaluates the FIFA 11+ Kids Training Protocol, specifically its application to young female volleyball players. It compares it against standard warm-up routines in terms of enhancing motor skills and physical performance. The research anticipates that the FIFA 11+ principles will yield positive outcomes when integrated with existing knowledge of volleyball performance metrics. The study involved 34 young female volleyball players divided into an exercise group (15 players) and a control group (19 players). Initial assessments included anthropometric measurements and motor competence tests such as balancing backward, jumping sideways, moving sideways, and eye-hand coordination (KTK3+ tests). Subsequent sessions focused on physical and functional tests, including balance performance, agility (pro-agility test), vertical jump (countermovement jump test), and the functional movement screen (FMS) test. A two-way analysis of variance was used to compare the effects of the exercise versus the control group over time, revealing that the exercise group showed significant improvements in dynamic balance, KTK balancing backward, and KTK moving sideways. This study aims to provide innovative insights into the effectiveness of the FIFA 11+ Kids Training Protocol, highlighting its potential benefits in improving physical and motor competencies in young female volleyball players.

NCT ID: NCT06430242 Completed - Knee Osteoarthritis Clinical Trials

Tele-rehabilitation in Knee Osteo Arthritis

Start date: October 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common degenerative joint disease with an inflammatory component that starts from the matrix of the articular cartilage. Females are affected more than males and they have marked locomotor disabilities. Moreover, OA patients suffer from a range of extra-articular symptoms which also leads to functional impairment and disability such as fatigue, depression, anxiety, fear of movement, physical inactivity, and decreased muscle strength. OA management with physical therapy and exercise is recognized as the cornerstone of conservative and self-treatment for this chronic disease. The concept of telerehabilitation has been introduced in the field of physical medicine and rehabilitation, which combines telemedicine and rehabilitation interventions to support ongoing rehabilitation services for patients.
