There are about 238 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Cyprus. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The aim of this study is investigate the effects of progressive relaxation and myofascial release technique on blood flow velocity, pain, premenstrual symptoms and quality of life in premenstrual syndrome patients. There are tree groups in the study. These groups are; progressive muscle relaxation group, myofascial relaxation technique and control group. Evaluations will be made by another physical therapist who is blinded to the groups. Participants will be evaluated within the first 3 days of their menstrual cycle. Baseline assessment and post- treatment assessment will be done. Follow-up evaluation will be done on the fifth cycle, two cycles after the post-treatment evaluation.
The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy of Triflow in the rehabilitation of patients with long covid syndrome hospitalised in a rehabilitation center. Participants will be divided into 2 groups and follow their exercise regime until the day they are discharged from the rehabilitation center. The intervention group will participate in a rehabilitation program which includes upper and lower limbs exercises, cycle ergometer, walking and the use of triflow. The control group will participate in the same program but without the Triflow.
This study will investigate the role of genetic modifiers in hemoglobinopathies through a large-scale, multi-ethnic genome-wide association study (GWAS).
In the present study, the investigators aim to examine the feasibility of a classroom-based emotion regulation skills training within a tertiary curriculum. The primary objective of this study is to assess the acceptability and feasibility of the "ER4ALL", a brief course for enhancing emotion regulation skills for students in higher education. The secondary objective of this study is to collect preliminary evidence for beneficial effects in increasing students' acquired knowledge on adaptive emotion regulation, thus improvement on general psychological wellbeing. A two-arm pilot RCT will be conducted in University of Cyprus.
In the present study, the investigators aim to examine a) the acceptability and feasibility of the "Life Skills Boot Camp", a series of soft skills trainings for students in higher education. The acceptability and feasibility will be explored from the perspective of stakeholders, including students participating in trainings and trainers who provide them; b) to evaluate potential effectiveness of the training by measuring students' acquired knowledge and improvement on self-insight.
Today, the increase in the cost of health services, the development of technology and the shortening of the hospitalization period day by day due to the reasons for preventing complications such as hospital infections have increased the importance of discharge planning. Optimum maintenance of home care of patients who underwent surgery after discharge is possible with an effective discharge education given to the patient and their relatives and the preparation of the patients. In this study, it was aimed to examine the effect of the discharge training given to the patients who underwent Lumbar Disc Herniation Surgery with the method of feedback on their readiness for discharge and their satisfaction with the discharge training. Among the patient groups who were given and not trained by the teach-back method; H01. There is no difference between the scores of readiness for discharge. H02. There is no difference between discharge training satisfaction scores. H11: There is a difference between the scores of being ready for discharge. H12: There is a difference between discharge training satisfaction scores.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of tiragolumab and atezolizumab intravenous fixed-dose combination (IV FDC) in participants with histologically confirmed PD-L1-selected solid tumors whose disease is locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic and for whom an investigational agent in combination with an anti-PD-L1 antibody is considered an acceptable treatment option.
The aim of this study is to examine the effects of core stabilization and PNF exercises on core muscle activation in obese children.In the study, the initial sample size was calculated as 66 people, under the assumptions that the comparisons between groups would be made with one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), 3 groups would be included in the study, α= 0.05, β= 0.20 and the effect size would be f= 0.40. The study will be conducted on children between the ages of 10-13 who have a BMI value above the 95% percentile according to age and gender.After recording the sociodemographic information of the individuals, body composition, core muscle activation level, lumbar region muscle endurance, lumbar joint position sense, body image, static and dynamic balances, level of enjoyment of physical activity, physical activity level and pediatric quality of life scale before treatment, 8 weeks of treatment will be measured by the evaluator at the end of the 12-week follow-up period. The level of core muscle activation will be used as the primary outcome measure in the study.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common performed surgical procedures in urology. Over the past few decades there have been an increasing development of newer surgical treatment options. Additionally, the outcome parameters for BPH treatments have been standardized. While data are available for the initial pivotal studies, post-market release data are lacking. Under the umbrella of uCARE, we have started a prospective, ongoing international registry for recording demographics and outcomes for patients undergoing surgical treatments for BPH.
In the present study, the investigators aim to examine the feasibility of embedding a classroom-based soft skills intervention within a tertiary curriculum. The primary objective of this study is to assess the acceptability and feasibility of the "Life Skills 101", a novel psychoeducational course for students in higher education. The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate potential effectiveness of the course by measuring students' acquired knowledge and improvement on self-insight. Different methodologies will be used as part of the stage model for behavioral intervention development. In specific, three universities (CY, GR, SP) will run a single-arm study, while the fourth university (NL) will run an RCT pilot study.
