This study is testing a new nutritional drink or powder to see if children like it, tolerate it well, and can stick with it. It replaces your child's current supplement with a new one, and researchers will check how it affects their digestion and overall health.
This study looks at how quickly children chew and eat, and how that might relate to their body weight. By observing children during meals, researchers hope to learn more about healthy eating habits.
This study watches how kids ages 6–12 and adults ages 25–35 chew and break down foods like carrots, cheese, rice, and biscuits. Researchers want to understand how eating habits change as we grow up, which could help develop better foods for different ages.
This study studies how a standardized meal affects digestion using special monitoring in children and young adults with stomach or gut symptom problems (and compares them to healthy controls). It may help doctors understand what causes gut symptoms and guide better treatments.
This study compares a new 3D printed dental crib to the standard one used to stop thumb sucking in children. The goal is to see which is more comfortable and effective.
