The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that a protein-rich nutritional supplement (containing 45 g of dietary protein) prior to surgery acutely increases skeletal muscle and bone protein synthesis rates in older patients undergoing a hip…
Investigate the value of percutaneous radiofrequency heat lesion, applied to the medial branch of the primary dorsal ramus; more specifically try to determine if a significant and long lasting pain reduction can be obtained as compared to a sham-…
Investigate the value of percutaneous radiofrequency heat lesion applied to the ramus communicans; more specifically try to determine if a significant and long lasting pain reduction can be obtained as compared to a sham-operated group. In addition…
The objective of this study is to determine the surplus value of mental imagery on myo-electric prosthesis training Here fore we plan to execute two experiments. The goal of the first experiment is to test if intermanual transfer effects of able-…

To compare pain relief after PV with a sham intervention in selected patients with a chronic osteoporotic VCF ( three months or longer) using the same strict inclusion criteria as in VERTOS II an IV. Secondary outcome measures are back pain related…
To examine the effectiveness of custom made orthotic insoles by a podiatrist, compared to sham orthotic insoles and education alone in patients with plantar fasciitis in terms of pain, function and recovery.
To evaluate the effectiveness of eccentric calf muscle exercise therapy compared to strength training of the upper extremities (control group) in patients with chronic midportion Achilles tendinopathy.
The overall aim of this study is to gain insight into the pathophysiological mechanism of patients with non- specific neck pain and cervical radiculopathy and the influence of MP on these mechanisms. Therefore, different research objectives are…
With this research, we are examining the impact of skin displacement in individuals with chronic low back pain. We are investigating its effects on the mobility of the back and hip, as well as its influence on muscle activity in the back and…
