Ear Nerve Stimulation to Protect Kidneys During Heart Surgery
This trial tests whether gentle electrical stimulation applied to your ear can help protect your kidneys during heart surgery that uses a heart-lung machine. Kidney damage after this type of surgery is common, and researchers want to see if this non-invasive stimulation can prevent it.

Pelvic floor stimulation for urinary leakage after prostate surgery
This study tests a non-invasive (no surgery or needles) electrical stimulation device to help men regain bladder control after prostate removal surgery. The device uses gentle electrical pulses on the pelvic floor muscles to retrain them and reduce urine leakage.

Comparing Two Medicines for Male Infertility
This study tests two medicines—isotretinoin and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)—to see if they can improve sperm production in men with low sperm counts or no sperm due to certain causes. It might help if you haven't responded to other treatments before.

Nerve stimulation for overactive bladder in women
This study tests if a mild electrical stimulation on the skin near your ankle (called TTNS) can help calm an overactive bladder. It is for women who haven't had success with or can't take standard overactive bladder medicines.

Predicting cancer return and bladder control after robot prostate surgery
This study looks at factors that can predict whether prostate cancer will come back in the 10 years after robot-assisted prostate removal surgery, and how well bladder control (urinary continence) recovers. It helps doctors understand which patients might do better long-term.
Banská BystricaAges Any age - NCT07437924Enrolling by invitation
Bruxism and pelvic floor health in young women
This study looks at whether teeth grinding (bruxism) is linked to pelvic floor muscle function in young women. If you are 18–30 and either grind your teeth or do not, you may help researchers understand this connection.
KonyaAges 18–30 - NCT07428395Enrolling by invitation
Monitoring during continuous kidney replacement therapy in the ICU
This study tests a new way to monitor patients while they receive continuous kidney replacement therapy (a type of dialysis) in the ICU. It aims to see if this monitoring can be done safely and smoothly, helping doctors track your treatment better.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07421843Enrolling by invitation
Shorter vs longer wait between shockwave treatments for kidney stones
This study compares two different waiting times between shockwave treatments for kidney stones that are 8 to 15 mm. They want to see if a longer or shorter gap between sessions works better to break up the stone.
HelsingborgAges 18 years+ - NCT07405099Enrolling by invitation
Pancreas surgery risks in kidney failure patients
This study looks at the risks of pancreas surgery in people with end-stage kidney disease (kidney failure). It aims to help doctors understand how safe these surgeries are for patients on dialysis or with kidney problems.
Ages 20–75 - NCT07370441Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Amino acid dialysis fluid for better nutrition
This trial tests a special dialysis fluid with amino acids (building blocks of protein) to see if it helps improve nutrition in people on peritoneal dialysis who have low protein levels. If you qualify, it may help boost your nutrition.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07357168Enrolling by invitation
Electromagnetic field therapy vs. exercise for enlarged prostate
This trial compares two non-drug treatments—electromagnetic field therapy and aerobic exercise—to see which works better for improving prostate function in older men with an enlarged prostate causing urinary problems.
