How long should wrist traction last for broken wrist treatment?
This study compares two different lengths of time for applying gentle pulling (traction) to help reposition a broken wrist bone before putting it in a cast. The goal is to see if a shorter traction time works just as well as a longer one, which could make the treatment faster and more comfortable for patients.

Testing thinking skills after a localized brain injury
This trial studies how your thinking and memory abilities work after a single, localized brain injury seen on MRI. It involves cognitive (thinking) tasks to assess changes and may help researchers understand brain function after injury.
GrenobleAges 18–70 - NCT06147427Recruiting
ACL reconstruction with or without Lemaire procedure
This study compares two surgical techniques for repairing a torn ACL: standard ACL reconstruction alone versus ACL reconstruction plus a Lemaire procedure (an extra side-stabilizing repair). It aims to see which approach provides better knee stability for active patients over at least 2 years.
LyonAges 18–50 - NCT06214195RecruitingPhase 3
Shengmai San to prevent heart damage from breast cancer therapy
This trial tests if a traditional Chinese medicine called Shengmai San can protect the heart during chemotherapy and targeted therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer. Patients take the supplement alongside standard treatment to see if it reduces the risk of heart problems.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06215625Recruiting
Smart arm rehab for stroke and spinal cord injury
This study tests a smart home-based upper limb rehabilitation program for people with stroke or spinal cord injury. It uses technology to help improve arm and hand movement.
TainanAges 20–79 - NCT04623593Recruiting
Study of cost and value of neck disc surgery
This study looks at how cost-effective (good value for the money) anterior neck disc surgery is for people with nerve or spinal cord symptoms. If you need this type of operation, it may help doctors better choose treatments and plan healthcare resources.
Maastricht, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07853768Recruiting
Ultrasound imaging for wrist and ankle injuries
This study tests a new ultrasound device that helps doctors see broken bones in the wrist, forearm, ankle, or lower leg, using sound waves instead of X-rays. If you are getting an X-ray for one of these injuries, your images may be checked with this new device to see if it works as well.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 5 years+ - NCT05953051Recruiting
ACL surgery with a tunnel widened using enriched bone
This trial compares two techniques for ACL reconstruction—one uses an enriched, patient’s own bone during surgery and the other uses the standard approach. It may help researchers understand whether the enriched bone method improves knee healing and function.
ZurichAges 18–50 - NCT05904353Recruiting
Care coordination program after hip fracture and osteoporosis
This trial aims to improve how primary care and hospital care work together to treat osteoporosis after a hip fracture. It may help by making follow-up treatment plans and communication clearer after your hip injury.
Lørenskog, AkershusAges 75 years+ - NCT07860840Recruiting
Visual training before robot-assisted walking for stroke survivors
This study tests whether a special visual training program before using a walking robot can improve walking recovery in people who have had a stroke or similar brain injury within the last 6 months and have trouble sensing their affected side. If you join, you might get this extra visual practice to help your brain relearn movement.

Study of health differences in urban and rural communities
This study enrolls consenting adults to understand how health differs between people living in cities versus rural areas. Your participation may help researchers learn what factors influence health over time.
Rosario, Santa Fe ProvinceAges 35–70 - NCT04474106Recruiting
Shock wave therapy for new spinal cord injuries
This study tests whether extracorporeal shock wave therapy (non-surgical shock waves delivered from outside the body) can improve movement and sensation after a recent spinal cord injury. It may help people recover motor (movement) and sensory (feeling) function within months after injury.
Innsbruck, TyrolAges 18–99 - NCT06063577Recruiting
A study to see if a special stitch can prevent hernia after belly surgery
This trial tests whether using a special type of suture (called Stratafix Symmetric) during surgery can help prevent an incisional hernia from forming after abdominal or gastrointestinal cancer surgery. If you are having certain types of major abdominal surgery, this study might be an option for you at the West Michigan Cancer Center.
Kalamazoo, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT04534777Recruiting
