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 our study, posture in desk workers; it aims to evaluate the relationship between cervical range of motion, proprioception, muscle stiffness, posture and pain.
In rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, the diagnosis of Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) was made based on clinical findings and physical examinations. Then, the cross-sectional areas of the participants' median nerves from different levels were measured. Meidolateral and anteroposterior diameter were measured at the level of the carpal tunnel inlet. Flattening ratio was calculated. wrist to forearm ratio and wrist to forearm difference were calculated. The obtained data were compared between RA with CTS, RA without CTS and healthy control.
Background: The Hall Technique (HT) is a non-invasive, easily applicable minimally invasive dentistry approach for managing dental caries in children. It involves placing a preformed metal crown over a tooth with decay, to seal it in and stop the decay from progressing. However, it alters the occlusion as no tooth substance is removed to make space for the crown. Objective: This study, aims to evaluate the effects of Hall Technique on occlusion in children, to assess whether there are any adverse effects on the temporomandibular joint and masseter muscles, related to changes on occlusion and to evaluate the children's perceptions of the crowns. Materials and Methods: A total of 37 children aged 5-9 years, who have not been treated with the Hall Technique previously and who have dentinal caries that did not reach the pulp (affecting the occlusal or the occluso-proximal surfaces) in their primary molars, will be invited to participate in the study. At the first visit, clinical examination will be carried out and intraoral impressions will be taken for pre-treatment evaluation. The occlusal vertical dimension of the teeth will be measured clinically with callipers. Temporomandibular joint and masseter muscles will be examined clinically. Then, the Hall Technique crown will be placed to treat the carious tooth, the impressions taken again, and measurements repeated. At one and three months following treatment with the crown, the participant will have the measurements repeated. The child and parent will complete a questionnaire after 3 months on their perception of the crown. In the data analysis, frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation analyses will be used for demographic data and description of the clinical data. In numerical data analysis, t-test or Mann-Whitney U test will be used according to the data distribution. Geomagic software will be used to analyse sequential study models of the teeth to measure relative changes in the tooth positions over time.
Myofascial pain is a concept that refers to pain from trigger points. The region of the upper trapezius muscle is the most common region of myofascial pain syndrome (MAS). It is known that MAS is associated with disruptions in the fascia. It has been observed that kinesio taping supports healing by increasing the epidermal dermal distance. It is thought that the EDF (Epidermis Dermis Fascia) technique provides this effect on the fascia. This idea needs to be put forward with objective data and the study was designed for this purpose. It has been observed that kinesio taping with the inhibition technique for the upper trapezius trigger point has a positive effect on pain and function. Therefore, it will be investigated whether the EDF technique and the inhibition technique have any advantages over each other. An exercise program will be applied to all three groups in the study design, so whether taping provides an additional benefit to fascia smoothness, pain and function will be examined and the 4-week long-term effect of taping, which is mostly short-term effect, will be revealed.
The study aims to evaluate the effect of home-based walking program on peripheral neuropathy, fatigue and quality of life in patients receiving taxane and platinum-based chemotherapy.
In this study we compared the intubation success, time needed for intubation, subglottic damage, postoperaitve sore throat, hoarseness and hemodynamic response to orotracheal intubation using three different intubation stylets with C-MAC R videolaryngoscope D- blade.
The aim of this study is to compare the effects of motor imagery focused pelvic floor exercises and relaxation exercises used in the treatment of dysmenorrhea on pain and menstrual symptoms.
In patients who will undergo open thoracic surgery, two different types of drugs will be administered to volunteer patients before surgery in order to relieve postoperative pain, facilitate breathing and reduce hospitalization time. The pain intensity, respiratory capacity, the amount of opioid analgesic needed during and after surgery, side effects such as nausea-vomiting, low blood pressure and shortness of breath will be evaluated.
This study aims to determine the most effective and long-lasting pain relief method for post-operative analgesia in kidney donor and recipient patients in kidney transplantation programme with the least invasive and least drug administration. For this reason, it is planned to perform Quadratus lumborum plane block (QLB) in a group of patients who will be kidney donors and kidney recipients in kidney transplantation and who meet the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status Classification System 1-3 risk classification between the ages of 18-70 years, and to administer intravenous pain medication without block in another group. It is planned to include at least 84 patients in the Quadratus lumborum plan block (QLB) and Intravenous Analgesia group (IVA) without gender discrimination. Postoperative Sedation-Agitation assessment and NRS (numeric pain scale) at 1st hour, 2nd, 6th, 12th and 24th hours, as well as possible side effects such as nausea, vomiting, shoulder pain, respiratory depression, bradycardia and hypotension, total amount of opioid analgesics consumed within 24 hours and duration of hospital stay will be observed and recorded.
This thesis study was conducted in an unblinded, randomized controlled experimental manner in order to analyze the effect of attention-drawing methods that can be used during intramuscular injection in children on pain and anxiety.
