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 this study, our aim is to determine the reference values for the handgrip force and bioimpedance values in healthy Turkish children.
Radiculopathy is a neurological condition in which transmission along a spinal nerve and its roots is limited or inhibited. It is most caused by spondylotic changes such as cervical disc herniation leading to nerve root compression, inflammatory changes, and the formation of bony prominences in this region [1]. Pain is the initial symptom and cervical radiculopathy should be suspected when pain radiates from the neck to the shoulder and arm, accompanied by sensory complaints and motor weakness. It is most commonly caused by spondylotic changes, such as cervical disc herniation and bony prominences in this area, leading to nerve root compression and inflammatory changes. Stenotic changes in the spine, which are often observed with aging, can cause nerve damage and compression in individuals, causing radicular pain. However, there is insufficient study in which the relationship between pain caused by cervical spondylotic radiculopathy caused by stenosis and functional disability, disability and quality of life due to radiculopathy in patients is insufficient. In addition, the lack of a comprehensive outcome scale that evaluates the functional limitation caused by radicular pain has also led to a deficiency in the evaluation of functional limitation. In this context, CRES is a newly developed scale used to evaluate functional limitation associated with radicular pain. In this context, in this study, it was aimed to examine the relationship between pain, functional disability, disability and quality of life in patients with cervical spondylotic radiculopathy.
Volleyball is an interval sport involving consecutive aerobic and anaerobic loads. Strength training based on explosive movements can improve performance in the upper extremities. Strength performance has an important place in this sport. Trunk stabilization is defined as 'proximal stability for distal mobility'. Disorder in any segment of the kinetic chain model will affect the quality of movement in the lower and upper segments.The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the morphological features of the transversus abdominis, lumbal multifidus (L4-5), internal external oblique muscles, and the anaerobic power of the upper extremity and shoulder girdle functionThis study was designed as a cross-sectional. They will consist of 30 volleyball players between 14-30 years of age. Muscle morphological features of the participants by ultrasound; explosive strength will be evaluated by Medicine Ball Throw test, functional evaluation will be evaluated by Closed Kinetic Chain Upper Extremity Endurance test.
This randomized controlled study aimed to determine the effect of foot reflexology on pain and ankle brachial index level in patients with peripheral artery disease
The aim of this study is to test the validity of the Perception of Quality in Anesthesia (PQA) and language compatibility.
Fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB), which is difficult to tolerate while awake, is recommended to be performed by the patient under sedation. The aim of this study is to determine the attitudes and behaviors of chest diseases specialists who do FOB in Turkey about sedation with a 30-question online questionnaire.
PMS is one of the common menstrual disorders affecting many young women, and according to epidemiological data, approximately 75% of women have PMS symptoms and 3-8% have severe PMS symptoms. The prevalence of PMS was different in different countries, with 34% in China , 72% in Turkey , 80% in Pakistan and Jordan. It was detected in the range of 92% in India and 14.3%-74.4% in India. Common premenstrual symptoms include anxiety, lack of concentration, depression, bloating, abdominal cramps, breast tenderness, anger, general body pain, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, decreased concentration, mood swings, headache, anxiety, sleep disturbance, appetite changes. In addition to physical symptoms, studies indicate that individuals reporting PMS experience more stress and anxiety, and their sensitivity to depressive symptoms increases due to hormonal fluctuations. Studies have shown that mindfulness-based cognitive methods are effective in the treatment of mood disorders such as depression. It is thought that modulating many PMS symptoms such as stress and experienced emotional problems through mindfulness-based cognitive methods may be an effective approach for future PMS interventions.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the drug compliance of patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis and, to figure our factors that affect the compliance. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Medication use and compliance in children with chronic diseases is an important problem, but do patients with JIA really use their medications in harmony? - Does the level of adherence to medications affect the quality of life of patients with JIA? Participants will be asked to fill the demographic form which includes personal information and nutritional habbits, Morisky Drug Compliance Scale - 8 and the pediatric quality of life inventory forms, with attending researcher Yesfa Sebnem Ozbay, M.D. This study is not an interventional study.
This study is a randomized controlled sham applied study. Its aim is to evaluate the efficacy of Er:YAG laser for the treatment of atrophic vaginitis in postmenopausal women. In this study, demonstration of the efficacy of Er:YAG laser for the treatment of atrophic vaginitis in postmenopausal women is intended with Maturation Index (MI), vaginal pH measurement, Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), Vaginal Health Index (VaHI), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and ultrasonographic elastography
The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is an increase in the frequency of demodicosis and the density of Demodex mites after 20 sessions of phototherapy. The main question(s)it aims to answer are; - Are Demodex mites higher in patients treated with phototherapy? - In which localization and with what intensity was demodicosis most common? Participants will be assessed using standardized skin surface biopsy technique in four localization on their face. Researchers will compare demodex intensity per cm² to see if the phototherapy effects demodex intensity on patients.
