Lichen planus (LP) is a chronic inflammatory mucocutaneous disease of unknown etiology. Pathogenesis of LP is not completely understood, but it's considered a T-cell-mediated autoimmune disease. Cold-inducible RNA binding protein (CIRP or CIRBP) is a member of the glycine-rich RNA-binding protein family, Recent studies proved that CIRP acts as a tumor promoter through its actions on different cellular proliferation levels, Recently, the role of the damage associated molecular proteins and cytokines was highlighted in the pathogenesis of many disorders including psoriasis, alopecia areata, vitiligo, rheumatoid arthritis, other autoimmune diseases as well as several types of cancer. The aim of this study is to compare serum and tissue levels of CIRP in patients with LP and healthy controls.
The goal of this observational study is to to evaluate the validity and reliability of the "Postural Stability Test", "Stability Limits Test", "Sensory Integration Test" and "One-Leg Standing Test" tests of the newly developed patented balance assessment system in healthy young adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Are the "Postural Stability Test", "Stability Limits Test", "Sensory Integration Test" and "One-Leg Standing Test" tests in the newly developed balance assessment system a valid method for healthy young adults? - Are the "Postural Stability Test", "Stability Limits Test", "Sensory Integration Test" and "One-Leg Standing Test" tests in the newly developed balance assessment system a reliable method for healthy young adults? Participants will be evaluated with the "Postural Stability Test", "Limits of Stability Test", "Sensory Integration Test" and "Bilateral Comparison Test" within the AlBalance Balance Evaluation System and Biodex Balance Evaluation System. Participants will be asked to sit in a chair and rest for 5 minutes before starting the tests. To calculate the test-retest reliability and validity of the devices, these measurements will be made by the same evaluator in two sessions, 7 days apart. To eliminate the learning effect, participants who try AlBalance first in the first session will try Biodex first in the second session (reverse test order will be used). Participants who complete all evaluations with the first device will rest for 5 minutes and move on to the other device. Then, parallel clinical tests will be applied to the participants, "Functional Reaching Test" and "One Leg Standing Test".
Adapted sport is constantly evolving thanks to the technological and scientific advances in the field of sports that are being developed in our era. Until a few years ago, the study of training, loads, volumes and work intensities were the focus of attention, but nowadays, expanding towards recovery of the individual and consequently to an improvement of the assessments and treatments from the point of view of the alteration of the movement. Impaired motor control is a consequence of most central nervous system (CNS) movement disorders, such as cerebral palsy. A common physical examination includes assessment of passive muscle elongation endurance, isometric and isotonic testing. This test is used to judge the degree and nature of muscle hyperendurance, to determine etiology at the muscle tissue and/or motor control level, and to infer consequences for overall motor performance in functional tasks. Although this physical examination is in widespread clinical use and provides clinically essential information, it is still a subjective assessment and depends on several factors such as intra- and inter-examiner variability.this variability and subjectivity calls for a consensus on the interpretation and measurement of muscle neurophysiological responses in patients with neurological diseases.Generally, the assessment instruments used for the analysis of hypertonia in adapted sports are based on standardized tests and trials. Specifically, in CP (Cerebral Palsy)-Football, hypertonia is assessed by the degrees of spasticity of the modified Ashworth Scale. There is a need for instrumental assessment to validate subjectivity and thus facilitate the applicability, objectivity, characterization and monitoring of the pathology, such as surface electromyography (EMS). The tests will be performed in a control group of healthy subjects and an experimental group with subjects belonging to the Spanish National Football Team of cerebral palsy and acquired brain damage. After collecting the records, the behavioral patterns in both groups will be evaluated, establishing possible differences between them for the clinimetric indicators analyzed related to muscle activity, thus allowing a characterization of the sample. Subsequently, by means of the post-exertion assessment of the experimental group, we will analyze the influence of muscle fatigue after an international soccer match. Therefore, the development of the project aims to provide clinical health professionals and professionals in sports physical activity with evaluative tools (EMG) sensitive to clinical changes that allow characterizing, classifying and observing the evolution of their athletes through a simple, fast and agile characterization of indicators based on surface electromyography for patients with cerebral palsy and acquired brain damage.
1. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the correlation between the length of ICU stay and a newly developed FIVE score in neuro-intensive care patients. 2. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the impact of the FIVE score on hospital length of stay, Modified Rankin Scale, and mortality, as well as to determine the correlation between the GCS, FOUR, and FIVE scores
The investigators conducted a validation study for the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)-XpressO compared to the digital-MoCA test (version 8.1) as the gold standard. Participants were recruited from the MoCA clinic and a family practice. Ethics approval was received, and all participants provided informed consent. A crossover study design was applied to the MoCA-XpressO and the digital-MoCA test; participants were randomized for the order of administration. The investigators only recruited participants who did not complete a MoCA test during the 3 months prior to the study. A logistic regression model was built, and the accuracy of the model was evaluated by the sensitivity, specificity, and area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve.
The proposed study aims to examine the usability, utility, and feasibility of the Tulsa Life Chart (TLC) in a sample of patients seeking mental health treatment and their healthcare providers. The TLC is an interactive, web-based application used to create a graphical interface for visualizing a patient's life history.
The aim of the study was to psychometrically evaluate the electronic self assessment Faces Pain Scale (FPS). Validation is performed in relation to golden standard of pain scale assessments Faces Pain Scale Reversed (FPS-R) and Coloured analogue Scale (CAS). 600 children with a range of illnesses on various paediatric healthcare settings in Sweden, Island, Denmark and USA will be included. Pain assessment will take place postoperatively, in relation to procedures or in a setting where acute pain is identified.
The American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society hallux metatarsophalangeal-interphalangeal joint scale (AOFAS Hallux MTP-IP) is originally developed in English to evaluate the pain, function and alignment in patients with hallux deformities. The purpose of this study is to translate and cross-culturally adapt the AOFAS Hallux MTP-IP scale into Turkish and investigate its psychometric properties.
Self- and peer-assessment is one of the important methods among student-centered assessment methods. The ability of the student to evaluate himself and his peers provides many contributions to him in his education and professional life.Nursing education aims to gain many psychomotor skills.Aim is to examine the effects of self and peer assessment training on the success of stoma care skills.
