Istanbul, CevizlibağAges Up to 18 years - NCT07756892Recruiting
Continuous temperature monitoring during newborn cooling therapy
This study tests a new way to continuously monitor the body temperature of newborns who are receiving cooling therapy (to protect the brain after birth complications). If your baby is eligible, continuous monitoring may help doctors better manage the cooling treatment and improve care.
Graz, StyriaAges 3 days–1 week - NCT07754266Recruiting
Headache, ear, and dizziness registry
This study collects information from people who have headaches, ear problems, dizziness, or sinus issues to better understand these symptoms and how they relate to migraine. Your participation may help improve future treatments and diagnosis.
North Kingstown, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT07752251Enrolling by invitation
Subscalp heart monitor for brain surgery patients
This study tests a small heart monitor placed under the scalp during brain surgery to see if it can safely track heart rhythms. It may help doctors monitor patients more closely after surgery.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18–80 - NCT07752732Recruiting
Heart scans for amyloidosis in people with severe aortic valve stenosis
This study looks at how often cardiac amyloidosis occurs in people with severe aortic valve stenosis. It uses different heart scans to find out more. If you have both conditions, this research may help doctors understand your situation better.
TübingenAges 18 years+ - NCT07750808Recruiting
Walking rehabilitation with a robotic exoskeleton
This study tests a wearable robotic leg brace that helps people with leg weakness practice walking. It aims to see if using the robot improves strength and movement for people recovering from stroke, spinal cord injury, or joint replacement surgery.
DhakaAges 18–60 - NCT07753681Recruiting
Chronic disease care in Zambia
This study helps improve care for people with long-term illnesses like diabetes or high blood pressure in Zambia. It aims to make sure you get regular check-ups and support.

Galveston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07756905Recruiting
Motor control exercises with and without tape for sciatica
This study tests whether adding kinesio tape (a flexible, supportive tape) to a motor control exercise program helps reduce sciatica pain more than exercises alone. It may help improve movement and reduce pain in your leg.
SialkotAges 35–50 - NCT07754747Recruiting
Balance training after stroke
This trial compares two types of balance exercises to see which one better improves balance, posture, and reduces the risk of falling in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago.
RawalpindiAges 40–70 - NCT07756775Recruiting
Comparing two imaging tests for stroke diagnosis
This study compares two imaging methods, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) without contrast dye and a carotid ultrasound (Doppler), to see which one is better at finding blocked arteries in the neck that can cause strokes. The results may help doctors choose the best test for people who have had a stroke or a mini-stroke.
