NCT07472010
Mandibular stretching exercises and breathing techniques may influence autonomic nervous system activity, muscle tone, and psychological state. This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the effects of mandibular stretching exercise and the 4-4-8 breathing exercise on autonomic nervous system activity, muscle tone, and psychological parameters in healthy university students. Participants will be randomly assigned to intervention groups and evaluated before and after the intervention period.

In stroke patients, the shoulder-upper extremity complex is affected and reduces independence and quality in activities of daily living. Investigating the relationship between the functions of the upper extremity muscles and viscoelastic properties is important in understanding the rehabilitation of individuals with stroke.
NCT05521217
The primary aim of the study was to measure the intra-rater and inter-rater reliability of MyotonPRO in measuring postural muscle tone and mechanical properties in individuals with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). The secondary aim is to question the existence of a relationship between the functional levels of individuals with SMA and their muscle tone and biomechanical properties. It is assumed that the outputs to be obtained from this research will form the norm data for moyotonometer evaluation in children with SMA.
NCT04651595
upplementing general anaesthesia with caudal analgesia in sphincter sparing procedures might be useful as it will provide a satisfactory combination of sphincter muscle tone preservation, good intraoperative and postoperative analgesia along with a reduction in the consumption of opioids and anaesthetic drugs. To the best of our knowledge, this anaesthetic technique was not tested in sphincter sparing procedures before.

Sexuality is considered one of the pillars of quality of life, an integral part of the personality of each individual. Being a basic human being need, it cannot be separated from other aspects of life. For several centuries and until recently, sexuality was considered the "lower instincts" expression related only to the sexual act. Sex is associated with "reproduction" of the sexual energy. On the other hand, the exercise of sexuality includes various factors such as the building of the sensitivity between individuals like touch, dance, fantasy, look, etc. For a long time feminine sexuality was predominantly focused on procreation and has only recently been considered as an integral part of sexual and reproductive rights of women. Vaginismus is a female sexual dysfunction that affects the quality of sexual and psychosocial lives of women, influencing the quality of the couple's relationship. The scientific literature emphasizes the importance of the examination, diagnosis and physical therapy for this dysfunction, but until now there is no quantification or evaluation of the pelvic floor muscles for this group of women, which justifies the realization of this project.
NCT03044106
Purpose: To conduct a pilot study of the effect of Cranial Laser Reflex Technique (CLRT) compared with sham laser on hamstring muscle flexibility, strength, and pain pressure threshold. Participants: Active, young adults ages 18 to 35. Procedures: A two-visit, assessor and participant-blinded crossover study with 1-week washout. Subjects will complete three functional hamstring tests before and after CLRT and sham laser treatment. Subjects will also complete questionnaires to assess their expectations and perceptions of the interventions.
