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.
Breast cancer occurs as a result of uncontrolled proliferation of cells in the breast tissue. Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women worldwide and is an important problem that threatens women's lives. The incidence rate has reached approximately 16 Breast cancer treatment consists of local and systemic therapies. While local treatments include surgery and radiotherapy, systemic treatments, which are administered in two different ways, namely adjuvant and neoadjuvant systemic treatments, consist of chemotherapy, hormone therapy and targeted biological therapies. Although the treatment options for breast cancer are increasing day by day, there are many complications during and after treatment. These complications negatively affect functionality and quality of life The 6-minute walk test (6MWD) is a widely used test for indirect measurement of cardiorespiratory fitness in various cancer populations. Studies have proven that the 6MWT is safe and feasible in breast cancer patients. The concept of 'can do, do do' has recently emerged to describe impaired physical functions in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. This concept categorizes participants into four quadrants based on physical activity level and functional capacity measurements and cut-off point. This concept has proven useful for measuring physical function in both asthma and COPD. This concept may be useful in understanding physical functioning in breast cancer patients. Therefore, The aim of this study is to apply the concept of 'can do, do do' in breast cancer patients, to determine the quadrants according to physical activity level and functional capacity measurements in breast cancer patients, to investigate whether and to what extent there is a difference, whether and to what extent there is a difference between demographic information, disease stages, comorbidity level, clinical features, peripheral muscle strength, fatigue and quality of life and upper extremity functionality according to quadrants.
Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women worldwide. The incidence rate has reached approximately 16%. According to 2016 data from the Ministry of Health, the incidence of breast cancer in Turkey is 46.8 per 100,000 people and approximately 17,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer each year. While breast cancer survival rate is 80% in developed countries, this rate varies between 40-60% in low-middle income countries. Survival can be increased with early diagnosis and more effective treatment methods. However, a wide range of treatment-related complications are observed during and/or after breast cancer treatment. Cancer survivors are exposed to a variety of direct (local/regional therapy, systemic therapy and supportive care) and indirect factors (modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors) that can have adverse effects on pulmonary, cardiovascular, hematologic and musculoskeletal components. Oxygen consumption in cancer patients may be adversely affected by aging, deconditioning, existing comorbidities, cancer pathophysiology and cancer treatments (surgery, radiation, chemotherapy and hormone therapy). Although decreased functional capacity is common after breast cancer treatment, there are few studies evaluating maximal arm exercise capacity with oxygen consumption.
Sexual function in low back pain and after lumbar surgery has been evaluated in many studies In a few studies, sexual function problems after surgery have also been reported. In the literature, there is no study that investigates the effectiveness of physical therapy on sexual function in patients with low back pain. In this study, the effectiveness of physical therapy on sexual function in patients with low back pain will be evaluated.
The aim of this study is to investigate the additional effect of Intra-articular Pulsed Radiofrequency (IAPRF) on pain and functional activities in addition to intra-articular steroids in patients with grade II and III knee osteoarthritis.
Distal surfaces of second molars adjacent to wisdom teeth are always at risk for caries and external root resorption. The incidence of caries is high, especially in partially impacted third molars in mesioangular and horizontal positions. In this study, investigators aimed to examine the caries correlation in the distal second molar with the age, gender, side and DMFT scores of the participants.
this study is aimed to determine the effects of video-assisted discharge education of day surgery patients on the perception of quality of discharge Study Hypothesis include the following; H1: The day surgery patients who were exposed to the video-assisted discharge educational intervention will have higher perception on quality of discharge teaching, compared with those who were not exposed to the educational intervention. H2: The day surgery patients who were exposed to the video-assisted discharge educational intervention will have enhanced satisfaction with nursing care quality, compared with those who were not exposed to the educational intervention
Laparoscopic gynecological surgery causes postoperative pain.The primary objective of this study is to compare the effect of ultrasound (US)-guided oblique subcostal transversus abdominis plane block (OSTAP) on 24-hour total analgesic consumption with transmuscular quadratus lumborum block (TQLB).
Parkinson's patients usually have a significant decrease in respiratory muscle strength and respiratory function, which may increase in proportion to the severity of the disease. In addition, peripheral muscles may become dysfunctional by the rigidity caused by the disease. This reduces exercise capacity and may lead to a decrease in oxygen consumption. Respiratory muscle training has increased respiratory muscle strength in people with Parkinson's Disease (PD). However, its effectiveness on other functional outcomes has not been determined and studied.
Bone and skeletal muscle are in a single unit that interacts with each other structurally and functionally. The aim of this study is to determine the contribution of bone myoregulation reflex as a neuronal crosstalk mechanism on the development of sarcopenia in postmenopausal and senile osteoporosis
Sports that require overhead activities (volleyball, tennis, basketball) include components such as rapid displacement, strength and movement control.Volleyball is also called as an overhead sport in terms of the way it is played. In the realization of these sports; Sub-parameters such as proprioceptive sense, strength, throwing rate, flexibility play a role. During these activities, the shoulder and elbow joints are overloaded. To meet this load, the joint must provide the necessary mobility and stability. Proprioceptive sense in increasing the quality and width of movement as well as providing dynamic joint stability in overhead sports; Increasing the range of motion of the joint, reducing muscle stiffness and thus increasing flexibility are effective in providing mobility. That's why it's important to develop them. Likewise, muscle strength should be increased in order to maintain movement performance and prevent injuries. The use of myofascial release techniques as an exercise method has increased in recent years. Application; The effects on parameters such as strength, performance and flexibility were investigated. Studies have focused more on the lower extremities and acute effects. There is no study on the subject examining proprioceptive sensation in volleyball players in the upper extremity. Therefore, our aim is to examine the chronic effects of the application on shoulder and elbow joint mobility, sensorimotor function and performance.
