Glenview, IllinoisAges 18–90 - NCT07557108Recruiting
Nerve Blocks to Improve Recovery After Heart Surgery
This study tests whether special numbing injections around nerves in the chest wall (fascial plane blocks) help patients recover better and have less pain after open-heart surgery. The goal is to see if this technique improves how you feel and function in the days after your operation.
Ordu, AltinorduAges 18–70 - NCT07559344Recruiting
Hot Baths and Muscle Recovery in Young Athletes
This study tests whether taking hot baths before or after intense exercise helps young track-and-field athletes recover better and triggers natural protective proteins in their muscles. Researchers will measure muscle strength and a cellular protein called HSP70 to see if heat helps the body bounce back from hard workouts.
AmiensAges 19–25 - NCT07560540Recruiting
Nutrition Support Before and After Pancreatic Surgery
This study tests whether a special nutrition plan before and after Whipple surgery (a major operation for pancreatic or bile duct cancer) helps patients recover faster and feel better. Researchers want to see if eating the right nutrients beforehand makes surgery easier on your body.
LahoreAges 18 years+ - NCT07563452Recruiting
How Exercise Affects Muscles in People Taking Cholesterol Medicine
This study compares how muscles recover after exercise in people who take statin medications (cholesterol-lowering drugs) versus those who don't. Researchers want to understand if statins affect how well muscles bounce back from physical activity.
Innsbruck, TyrolAges 30–65 - NCT07569354Recruiting
Recovery in Older Adults After Mild Head Injury
This study follows older adults (65+) who had a mild traumatic brain injury (concussion) to understand how they recover over time. Researchers want to learn what helps seniors bounce back and stay active after a head injury.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 65 years+ - NCT07573540Recruiting
Smart Phone App to Support Alcohol Recovery
This study tests a smartphone app called STAR designed to help people stay in recovery from alcohol use disorder. Researchers want to see if the app helps people maintain their sobriety after they've already stopped drinking.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT07586839Recruiting

This study tests whether a special nutritional supplement helps muscles recover better after exercise. Researchers will compare how well the supplement works in healthy young men who exercise regularly.
Wageningen, GelderlandAges 18–35 - NCT07592221Recruiting
Electrical Stimulation for Foot Drop After Stroke
This study tests a combination of two types of electrical stimulation to help improve foot drop (difficulty lifting your foot when walking) in people who've had a stroke. The goal is to help you walk more naturally and safely.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07597798Recruiting
Accessory Artery Detection and Erectile Function After Prostate Surgery

LondonAges 18–79 - NCT07598435Recruiting
Arm Recovery Exercises After Stroke: Two Training Methods Compared
This study tests two different physical therapy approaches to help improve arm movement and function in people recovering from stroke. You'll participate in therapy sessions using either rhythmic initiation (guided movement exercises) or isometric training (muscle-tightening exercises) to see which helps your arm recover better.
Faisalābad, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–60 - NCT07604467Recruiting
Understanding Stem Cells in Takotsubo Heart Syndrome
This study examines how certain stem cells (CD34+ cells) may contribute to takotsubo syndrome, a temporary heart condition often triggered by stress. By understanding this connection, researchers hope to improve treatment and recovery for patients with this condition.
Ljubljana, LjubljanaAges 18 years+ - NCT07608588Recruiting
Brain Stimulation for Language Recovery After Stroke
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called rTMS can help people regain language skills after a left-sided stroke, particularly for word-finding and meaning difficulties. Researchers will target specific brain regions to see if stimulation improves recovery.
Columbia, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07614074Recruiting
Understanding Recovery from Coma and Unconsciousness
