Filter by:Prospective cohort study to evaluate the use of a NanoScopic procedure to assess deltoid ligament injuries with outcomes measured at baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 1 year and 2 years. Further to examine whether the findings correlate with results on gravity stress test and weightbearing radiographs.
Long term steroid exposure, as in Cushing's disease, causes myocardial dysfunction, hypertrophy and fibrosis in addition to causing obesity, hypertension and glucose intolerance. The aim of our study was to verify if short-term high-dose exogenous steroid therapy adversely effects the heart.
Study Design: Evaluation of the psychometric properties of a translated, culturally adapted questionnaire. Objective: Translating, culturally adapting, and validating the Italian version of the Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT-I), allowing its use with Italian-speaking population to monitor both state of health and functional limitation deriving from ankle instability problems, in order to evaluate the degree of severity, without using the comparison with the opposite limb. Summary of Background Data: Lateral ankle sprain is the most common injury during sports activity, often cause of disability and of numerous complications following repeated episodes, including chronic ankle instability (CAI), which affects 32% to 74% of the aforementioned cases. Growing attention is devoted to standardized outcome measures to improve interventions for injured population. A translated form of the Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT), a simple and specific tool for diagnosing chronic lateral ankle instability with excellent psychometric characteristics of both reliability and validity, has never been validated within the Italian speaking population.
The objective of this trial is to evaluate the effect of the consumption of a combination of probiotic strains (Prob-milk) and of a combination of plant extracts plus an inactivated probiotic strain (VoluntasProb) on the production volume and the nutritional composition and the microbiota. of breast milk in lactating women.
The study is designed to evaluate the effects of L-arginine on myocardial structure and function and circulating microRNAs in patients with arterial hypertension. The study will analyze the impact of 4 weeks treatment randomized to L-arginine or placebo, on mechanical-energy efficiency (MEE) and longitudinal strain in patients with arterial hypertension. The investigators will also assess whether the changes in MEE and strain induced by L-arginine treatment is associated with changes in circulating micro RNAs.
Decathlon has developed Ankle STRONG products which are medical devices that must be positioned around the ankle to limit ankle sprain occurrence. The Ankle STRONG devices cover a range of 3 products (Ankle STRONG 100/500/900). The differences between the devices is based on the strength of compression and the ankle maintain. The objective of this multicentre study is to collect data on the related clinical complications and clinical outcomes of market-approved Decathlon Ankle STRONG products to demonstrate safety and performance of these devices in a real-world setting.
a clinical trial designed to prospectively assess the safety and effectiveness of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) prior to allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell translation (HSCT) in patients contaminated with antibiotic-resistant pathogens (ARP)
Decathlon has developed kneeMID500-STRONG700 products which are two medical devices designed to be used for sport resumption after mild (kneeMID500) or moderate (KneeSTRONG100) knee sprain or after an Anterior Cruciate Ligament surgery. The difference between these devices is based on the strength of compression and the knee maintain. The objective of this multicentre study is to collect data on the related clinical complications and clinical outcomes of market-approved Decathlon kneeMID500-STRONG700 products to demonstrate safety and performance of these devices in a real-world setting.
A vast majority (75-85%) of ankle sprain patients treated in emergency departments (ED) receive pain medication and are not referred for physical rehabilitation. Therefore, purpose of this study is to increase access to the standard of care for an ankle sprain by provide patients with physical rehabilitation delivered through telehealth. The purpose of this study includes compare a 2-week telehealth intervention to the usual care for treating 1) subjective function; 2) physical impairments; 3) medication consumption; and 4) patient-perceived barriers. The central hypothesis is participants receiving the 2-week telehealth intervention will 1) have less pain and disability; 2) improve balance and ankle range of motion; 3) consume less medication; and 4) reports positive feedback compared to the usual care group.
This study investigates the feasibility of conducting a large scale Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) to analyze the efficacy of the osteopathic consultation in reducing the intensity of pain and changing electromyographic activity in the musculature of the neck-shoulder region for the computer user's population.
