There are about 15072 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Turkey. 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.
This study aimed to assess the effects of dydrogesterone on sexual function in women with endometriosis using Female Function Sexual Index (FSFI).
The study is a single-center, double-blind, randomized protocol comparison. The study will be conducted in Marmara University School of Medicine Pendik Training and Research Hospital, Department of Emergency Medicine between April 2020 and October 2020. The population consists of non-pregnant, adult patients (age of 18 or more) who will be confirmed as migraine according to The International Classification of Headache Disorders 3rd edition (ICHD-3) in the emergency department (ED). After the patient was found suitable for the standard treatment protocol, they will be randomized to receive a 1000 ml bolus of normal saline for 1 hour or normal saline at 10 cc/h for 1 hour. The pain level, functional status, and side effects will be assessed before the beginning, at the 1st hour, 2nd hour and at the 24th hour. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of an intravenous (IV) fluid bolus on migraine headache among patients treated in the ED.
The aim of this study was to investigation of knee position sense, balance, and dual task performance in different phases of menstrual cycle in females with multiple sclerosis. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS) affecting young people and leading to demyelination and neurodegeneration. MS affects females more than males with a ratio approximately of 3:1. Important gender differences in progression and inflammatory activity of disease have been observed. Sex hormones have been thought to play an important role in this condition. It is worth noting however that sex hormones not only affect reproduction (menses/pregnancy), they also have direct effects on the nervous and immune system. In the neurologic group, especially in MS patients, it is well known that disease activity, course, and symptoms can be influenced by hormonal fluctuations in different phases of the menstrual cycle. Previous studies have reported that the variation of estrogen and progesterone during the menstrual cycle may have an effect on several neurological functions. However, these studies are mostly subjective, in the form of patient reports and in limited numbers. Smith and Studd reported that there was a premenstrual increase in disease severity as changes in the Th-1 / Th-2 balance occurred in association with decreased circulating estrogen. Withdrawal of hormones from damaged tissues that affect axonal conduction can explain the change in disease activity, course symptoms during the menstrual cycle in female with MS. For all these reasons,investigators think that different phases of menstrual cycle change position sense, balance, and dual task performance in females with MS. Considering hormonal fluctuations occurring in the menstrual cycle, is an important criterion for organizing the rehabilitation program and evaluation in terms of physiotherapy.
Aim: The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of therapeutic touch applied to infants with infantile colic on infant colic scale score, crying and sleep time. Method: The study will be conducted as a single-blind, randomized controlled trial. The population of the study will be infants who come to the Pediatrics Outpatient Clinic and are diagnosed as infantile colic according to the evaluation of the pediatrician and have no other health problems. The infants will be divided into two groups as intervention and control groups according to stratified block randomization in the computer environment. After the randomization, therapeutic touch will be applied to the intervention group. No method will be applied to the control group.
The aim of this study was to determine the effects of complex decongestive physiotherapy (CDP) and home programs on internal/external lymphedema, staging, fibrosis, and three-dimensional (3D) surface scanning and volume evaluation in head and neck lymphedema. Twenty-one patients were randomly divided into three groups: CDP; home program including self manual lymph drainage (MLD) and exercises; and control. CDP included MLD drainage, compression, exercise, and skin care. Self-MLD and exercises were performed by home program group patients. Assessment methods were applied at baseline and 4 weeks later for all groups. MD. Anderson Cancer Center Head and Neck Lymphedema Protocol was implemented to evaluate head and neck external lymphedema, staging, and fibrosis. An Artec Eva 3D scanner and the Autodesk ReCap Photo Studio software were used to determine and calculate the volume of the head and neck region via 3D surface scanning. Head and neck external lymphedema and fibrosis assessment criteria were performed to evaluate visible soft tissue edema and the degree of stiffness. To assess internal lymphedema, Patterson's scale was applied using fiber-optic endoscopic imaging.
The frequency of femoral nerve block and adductor canal block for analgesia after TKA(total knee arthroplasty) increases with the use of ultrasonography in regional anesthesia. In this study, we aimed to compare the effects of femoral nerve block and adductor canal block on postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing unilateral knee arthroplasty.
This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of an infection prevention bundle on surgical site infections in patients undergone brain tumor surgery. The patients were divided into 2 groups: infection prevention bundle group and control group
This prospective randomized controlled trial was planned to be conducted among total laparoscopic hysterectomies performed at Zeynep Kamil Maternity and Children's Diseases Training and Research Hospital during one year period. The effect of drain insertion during the surgery will be assessed by this clinical trial. Patients will be assigned into two groups as cases and controls. Patients who will a drain inserted will be considered as case group and patients without a drain will be considered as control group. Patients will be evaluated according to their post operative VAS scores, hematocrit levels, their drainage volume and manifestation of an infection after the surgery.
This study investigates the effects of plyometric training with blood flow restriction on muscular strength, quadriceps thickness and knee joint function in patients with muscle weakness and atrophy (quadriceps muscle and hamstring muscle) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Persons who completed a 12-week routine rehabilitation program after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction will be included in the study. In the study group, plyometric exercises will be performed with blood flow restriction in the operated side for 8 weeks. In the control group, the same plyometric exercises will be performed without any application.
This study planned to investigate the effects of aerobic training combined with strengthening training and yoga on biochemical factors, physical performance and quality of life in people with pituitary adenoma. The hypotheses are; H1: Aerobic training combined with strengthening training is effective on biochemical factors in people with pituitary adenoma. H2: Aerobic training combined with strengthening training is effective on physical performance in people with pituitary adenoma. H3: Aerobic training combined with strengthening training is effective on quality of life in people with pituitary adenoma. H4: Yoga is effective on biochemical factors in people with pituitary adenoma. H5: Yoga is effective on physical performance in people with pituitary adenoma. H6: Yoga is effective on quality of life in people with pituitary adenoma. H7: Aerobic training combined with strengthening training and yoga is effective on biochemical factors, physical performance and quality of life in people with pituitary adenoma.
