Filter by:This study is a prospective randomized controlled study of rotator cuff repair with lateral raw or double raw combined with microfracture procedure. The patients with rotator cuff tear were randomly divided into groups before the operation. The patients were followed up before and, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months and 24 months after surgery. In different time periods, the quantitative and qualitative indicators including pain, functional score, muscle strength, MRI performance, etc. were compared between groups at the same time period to evaluate the difference in the effect of double raw or only lateral raw repair combined with microfracture on the treatment of rotator cuff. In order to figure out whether medial raw anchor necessary during tendon repair combined with microfracture in small to medium size rotator cuff tear.
The OSSIOfiber® Trimmable Fixation Nails are indicated for maintenance of alignment and fixation of bone fractures, osteotomies, arthrodesis and bone grafts in the presence of appropriate additional immobilization (e.g., rigid fixation implants, cast, brace). Our hypothesis is that the use of OSSIOfiber® Trimmable Fixation Nails for treating subchondral insufficiency of the knee will result in improvement of patient-reported outcomes and imaging findings. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of implanting bio-integrative OSSIOfiber® Trimmable Fixation Nails, organized in a bi-cortical rafter formation within the tibia or femur for the management of subchondral insufficiency. The OSSIOfiber® Trimmable Fixation Nails used in this study will be considered on-label.
The objective of this study is to test the effects of transcutaneous auricular neurostimulation (tAN) in treating or preventing performance degradation after an acute stressor.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if combined local injection of platelet rich plasma (PRP) gel adds clinical efficacy to isolated arthroscopic microfracture in treatment of osteochondral lesion of the talus (OLT). The interface integration of the injured area will also be assessed via radiographic follow-up. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does arthroscopic microfracture combined with PRP gel injection improve ankle function of participants based on American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) Score? - Does arthroscopic microfracture combined with PRP gel injection improve interface integration of the injured cartilage on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)? Researchers will compare arthroscopic microfracture with concomitant local injection of PRP gel to isolated microfracture to see if intraoperative PRP gel injection adds clinical efficacy to isolated arthroscopic microfracture in treatment of OLT. Participants will: - Undergo either isolated arthroscopic microfracture or microfracture with intraoperative injection of PRP gel - Receive clinical follow-up 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after surgery and answer scales of ankle function assessment - Take MRI preoperatively and 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery
This study will investigate stress that parents of children admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) experience. Investigation of a novel intervention of using bilateral alternating stimulation to reduce parental stress and anxiety and increase bonding/attachment in NICU. Evaluate parental stress and feelings of bonding using surveys before and after the intervention. Intervention will be done at neonate's bedside while admitted to the NICU. Vital sign data will be collected as a marker of parent and neonate's stress response during the intervention.
This clinical study aims to understand the effects of a medication called Neurexan on sleep patterns and stress in people with short-term insomnia. The study involves comparing Neurexan to a placebo - a tablet that looks like Neurexan but lacks active ingredients. The main goal of the study is to determine if Neurexan can enhance sleep efficiency in those with short-term insomnia. Sleep efficiency, which is the proportion of time spent asleep in relation to total time in bed, including attempts to fall asleep, will be assessed through Polysomnography (PSG). PSG examines various sleep characteristics such as brain activity, muscle and heart activity, and breathing. Participants will take either Neurexan or the placebo for 14 days. Sleep efficiency will be evaluated using PSG before and after the treatment period. Additionally, sleep quality-related factors will be investigated using PSG data, sleep diaries, and participant-completed questionnaires. The study will also investigate Neurexan's impact on stress levels. This will be assessed using the Cold Pressor Test, which measures stress through having the participant immerse their hand into ice water, and measuring changes in blood pressure and heart rate, both indicators of stress. In addition, blood and saliva samples collected before and after treatment with Neurexan or placebo, will be analyzed for stress-related hormones such as cortisol. Patient questionnaires and Electroencephalography (EEG), a non-invasive brain activity recording, will further assess stress symptoms. Researchers will analyze data related to sleep efficiency, sleep quality, and stress symptoms. By comparing outcomes before and after Neurexan or placebo treatment, the study aims to detect improvements in these areas. Positive results with Neurexan but not with the placebo would provide robust evidence for Neurexan's efficacy in addressing sleep and stress management issues. This study contributes valuable insights into Neurexan's potential benefits for individuals with short-term insomnia.
Using a metabolomics approach in combination with eye-tracking data, this research study proposes to gather evidence from two interrelated body systems (gut and brain) in order to assess how the microbiome is involved in stress modulated symptoms in children with autism and children exposed to repeated stress in comparison to a control group.
During the first funding period (1st FP) we investigated the impact of acute and chronic stress (Trier Social Stress Test, TSST) on Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer (PIT). Moreover, we developed a novel full transfer task that allows assessing both general and specific PIT to investigate whether specific PIT differs between alcohol use disorder (AUD) and control subjects. We found that our online version of TSST induced stress and thereby amplified PIT effects in participants. Preliminary analyses of the full transfer task indicate that AUD participants exhibit a stronger specific PIT effect compared to controls. Based on these findings, we want to assess the following aim for this study: Investigate the effect of experimentally induced social exclusion on alcohol-specific and general PIT effects in AUD and control participants.

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate how walking in different environments affects the psychophysiological responses to the stress of individuals with coronary artery disease (CAD) according to their weather sensitivity. Awareness about the potential influence of weather sensitivity on the psychophysiological reactions to stress in patients with CAD disease may contribute to the planning and implementation of actions leading to improved medical care services and preventative measures that help to avoid the worsening of health and well-being in the future.
