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.
The aim of this thesis study is to examine whether plantar sensory training given in addition to aerobic exercise training has an additional contribution to balance, functional capacity, walking and proprioception in patients with multiple sclerosis. In this direction, the hypotheses of the study are stated below. H0 hypothesis: Plantar sensory training given in addition to aerobic exercise training in patients with multiple sclerosis has no additional contribution to balance, functional capacity, walking and proprioception. H1 hypothesis: Plantar sensory training given in addition to aerobic exercise training in patients with multiple sclerosis has an additional contribution to balance, functional capacity, walking and proprioception. Conventional exercises (with the addition of warm-up and cool-down periods) will be applied to all multiple sclerosis patients participating in the study; In addition, aerobic exercise training will be given. In addition to these exercises, plantar sensory training will be given to the sensory training group. Exercises and plantar sensory training will be given to the participants at intervals of three weeks, with progressively progressive sessions, 2 days a week for 12 weeks. Patients will be evaluated twice, before treatment and at the end of treatment 12 weeks later. Within the scope of the evaluation, balance, functional capacity, gait, proprioception and plantar sensory parameters will be measured in patients. As a result of the study, it will be examined whether plantar sensory training given in addition to aerobic exercise training in multiple sclerosis patients has an additional contribution to balance, functional capacity, walking and proprioception. There is no study in the literature examining the effects of plantar sensory training and aerobic exercise training on balance, functional capacity, walking and proprioception in patients with multiple sclerosis. In this respect, it is anticipated that the study will contribute to the literature.
The restoration of the joint line (JL) is essential for the proper functioning of Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA). The exact position of JL can be determined using anatomical landmarks such as femoral condylar width (TEW), tibial tubercle, fibular head, and adductor tubercle during preoperative planning or intraoperatively. However, in cases of severe varus deformity in Type M gonarthrosis, it is unknown which method is most suitable for accurately determining the precise JL position. The aim of this study is to identify the most appropriate method for determining the JL position in Type M gonarthrosis. To achieve this goal, two groups of patients with Type 1A and Type M gonarthrosis will be compared by measuring preoperative values and comparing them with intraoperative reference values.
This cross-sectional study explores the influence of various types of maxillomandibular deformities on the nutritional status of individuals. Maxillomandibular deformities, which involve the misalignment of the upper and lower jaws, can significantly affect oral functionality, potentially leading to nutritional deficiencies due to compromised food intake. By analyzing the dietary habits and nutritional health of a diverse group of individuals with these deformities, the study seeks to establish the correlation between the severity of the deformity and the individual's nutritional status. Findings from this research can provide a deeper understanding of the additional health risks that maxillomandibular deformities pose and help in the development of nutritional guidelines specifically tailored for individuals suffering from these conditions.
This study aims to investigate the effect of clear aligners and traditional brackets on the nutritional status of orthodontic patients. With the increasing demand for more aesthetic and comfortable orthodontic appliances among adults, clear aligner treatment has gained popularity as an alternative to traditional fixed appliances. However, limited research has been conducted to evaluate the impact of clear aligners on dietary habits and nutrition. The study will include adult participants undergoing orthodontic treatment with either clear aligners or traditional brackets. Anthropometric measurements, dietary assessments, and oral health impact evaluations will be conducted to assess the nutritional status of the participants. The findings of this study will contribute to a better understanding of the influence of orthodontic appliances on nutrition and guide clinicians in providing comprehensive care to orthodontic patients.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of intravenous infusion of lidocaine at different doses (1 mg/kg/h vs. 2 mg/kg/h) in the intraoperative period in patients undergoing lumbar stabilization, whether postoperative pain, postoperative opioid use, opioid-related side effects are reduced, and its effects on intraoperative hemodynamics
The purpose of this Phase 3 study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of iptacopan upon switching from anti-C5 antibody to iptacopan treatment in study participants with aHUS.
The purpose of this study is to learn if V940 which is an individualized neoantigen therapy (INT; formerly, called messenger ribonucleic acid [mRNA]-4157) with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) is safe and prevents cancer from returning in people with high-risk melanoma. Researchers want to know if V940 with pembrolizumab is better than receiving pembrolizumab alone at preventing the cancer from returning.
The main goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of triheptanoin versus Medium-chain Triglycerides (MCT) on frequency of Major Clinical Events (MCEs).
There is not a study in the literature comparing laparoscopic pectopexy and laparoscopic lateral suspension (LLS) surgeries in the surgical treatment of pelvic organ prolapse. However, there are studies comparing the efficacy of other surgery types for pelvic organ prolapse. For example,In a study, the clinical and anatomical success rate in LLS operations was 83.8%, while the success rate in abdominal sacropexy operation was 89.2%.In another study in which pectopexy and vaginal sacro spinous fixation operations were compared, apical prolapse recurrence rates were found to be similar in both groups.
One of the most effective treatment methods of obesity is surgery. Bariatric surgery is classified as a clean-contaminated wound. The expected benefit from surgery is weight loss. However, surgical site infection is among the complications. Although many methods are applied to reduce these rates, it is not very possible to reduce them to zero. It is predicted that the incidence of infection will decrease with surgical care packages created from the combination of evidence-based interventions applied. This study was a randomized controlled trial designed to determine the effect of the Surgical Site Infection (SSI) prevention package on SSI and patient comfort in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. The questions to be answered by the research are; - What is the effect of the care package applied to patients undergoing bariatric surgery on surgical site infection? - What is the effect of the care package applied to patients undergoing bariatric surgery on comfort? .Patients aged 18 and over who have had bariatric surgery (sleeve gastrectomy) will be taken from a private hospital in Kayseri. All surgeries will be performed by the same surgeon. The care package (identification of risk factors, antibiotic prophylaxis, normothermia, normoglycemia and patient education) prepared for the experimental group will be applied. On the 30th day, the patient is called by phone and the surgical site infection findings are questioned.
