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.
In the fight against stigma, the focus should be on the education of individuals diagnosed with mental illness. Psychoeducation has an important place in the treatment and rehabilitation of mental health problems. Psychoeducation is necessary for early recognition of signs and symptoms of diseases, ensuring compliance with treatment, improving coping skills, as well as combating stigma, preventing internalized stigma, and counteracting social stigma. If individuals with mental disorders have adequate knowledge about the causes of stigma, they may be less prone to internalized stigma.
Thirty volunteer patients diagnosed with scoliosis by a specialist physician at Gazi University Hospital Orthopedics and Traumatology Department and subsequently referred to Gazi University Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Department for exercise training will be included in the study. The lumbar Pressure Measurement Test with Stabilizer and Rotation Stability Tests will be utilized to evaluate the spinal stability of the patients. Body awareness will be assessed using the Body Awareness Survey, comprising 18 questions. All assessments will be conducted at the Orthopedic Rehabilitation Clinic within the relevant department. The results obtained from this study will elucidate the relationship between body awareness and spinal stability in individuals with scoliosis.
Self-management of chronic diseases requires the ability to manage the symptoms, treatment, and lifestyle changes inherent in living with a chronic disease. Rational drug use by older adults is of particular importance. Mobile applications are being developed to facilitate the compliance of older adults with chronic diseases with medication treatment and to increase their disease self-management skills. The research was planned to strengthen participation in social life through rational drug use and disease self-care management in older adults with chronic diseases. The research will be conducted in a parallel group randomized controlled manner. In the research, a mobile application will be developed for the use of older adults. Older adults will be asked to use the mobile application for at least 6 months, and the scales will be re-administered face to face or online in the 3rd and 6th months of the intervention.
In the study, Class II restorations will be performed with G-aenial Universal Injectable (GC/ Tokyo, Japan), Grandio Flow (VOCO/ Germany), and Clearfil Majesty Flow (Kuraray/ Japan) composites will evaluated. Restorations will be assessed according to modified USPHS criteria in 1st week, 6th months, and 12th months from the placement date. The Chi-square test will used for statistical analysis of the difference between the groups, and the Cochran Q test will used for the significance of the difference between time-dependent changes within each group (p<0.05).
To evaluate the inflammatory response of participants who will undergo unilateral inguinal hernia surgery at two different times of the day (08.00-12.00 during the day and 18.00-22.00 at night). The main question it aims to answer is; Is the inflammation response higher in participants who undergo surgery later in the day? Serum inflammatory parameters will be measured in both groups at the preoperative 1st hour and the postoperative 24th hour.
In this prospective, randomized, single-blind study, we aim to compare the effects of general anesthesia and spinal anesthesia on postoperative myocardial injury in elderly patients undergoing hip surgery. Cardiovascular events are a leading cause of mortality and morbidity following non-cardiac surgery, with myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) being a significant concern. MINS, characterized by asymptomatic elevation of troponin levels without accompanying ECG findings, is closely associated with postoperative mortality. With the increasing prevalence of comorbidities in the elderly population and the rising frequency of non-cardiac surgeries in this demographic, understanding the effects of different anesthesia types on postoperative myocardial injury is crucial.
According to the information obtained from clinical studies, it has been stated that Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD) is associated with chronic low back pain (LBP). In this study, participants will be divided into two groups. Only Rocabado's exercise will be given to the Rocabado's group (RG), and Rocabado's and therapeutic lumbar exercises will be given to the therapeutic group (TG). Warm-up exercises will be given before starting the exercises with the therapeutic group, and cool-down exercises will be given after the exercises with the therapeutic group. At the end of the sixth week, the effect of therapeutic lumbar exercises on TMD pain and function will be evaluated.
This study aims to investigate the potential factors contributing to the development of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in patients undergoing pulmonary resection with Video Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) for lung malignancy. The study will focus on demographic data, laboratory parameters, perioperative fluid management, and haemodynamics. The research will be conducted at SBÜ Ankara Atatürk Sanatorium Training and Research Hospital. The study will involve patients who have given informed consent and will undergo VATS with standard anaesthesia monitoring. Anaesthesia management will follow our routine protocol in our clinic. Patients will be divided into two groups based on whether they have a more than 25% decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate (t-GFH) and/or a 1.5-fold increase in serum creatinine and/or a 6-hour urine volume of less than 0.5 ml/kg/h. The patients will be divided into two groups based on this definition, and the risk factors between these groups will be analysed. The preoperative routine blood values, demographic data (age, gender, height, weight, and BMI), ASA physical status, smoking and alcohol habits, comorbidities, and regular medication use will be recorded. Intraoperative urine output and haemodynamic parameters will also be monitored. Routine blood gas analysis, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), albumin, haemoglobin, sodium, potassium, chlorine, and magnesium will be measured and recorded, along with urine output and t-GFH. Patients will be evaluated in the hospital on the day the surgeon calls for a postoperative check-up and on the 30th postoperative day to see if there are any complications.
The aim of this study is to design, implement and evaluate the School Health Nursing course in the undergraduate nursing program using the universal design model.
Studies have proven that the Jigsaw learning method, one of the innovative learning methods, is an effective educational learning tool for nursing students. For nursing education to be sufficient to provide students with the modern roles required by the profession, students must actively learn instead of a memorized undergraduate education. -Training programs should enable them to participate in the teaching process. One of these programs is cooperative learning methods. The jigsaw learning technique creates a contemporary learning model by creating a positive learning environment, individualizing students and developing a sense of responsibility. No scientific literature has been found regarding the effect of the Jigsaw learning method on teaching critical article reading skills in nursing research courses in nursing education. It is assumed that the data obtained in this study will contribute to the effect of critical article reading training given using the Jigsaw technique, one of the cooperative learning techniques in nursing education, on students' critical article reviews and opinions about the technique.
