There are about 14522 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 the study was to examine the effects of the emotional freedom technique and virtual reality glasses applied to individuals receiving hyperbaric oxygen therapy for the first time on anxiety and vital signs. The hypotheses of this research are that there is a difference between the emotional liberation technique and virtual reality glasses groups and the control group in terms of anxiety and vital signs.
Microorganisms are an important factor in the development of periradicular diseases. The goal of non-surgical endodontic treatment is to eliminate microorganisms and their byproducts from the root canal system and to create an effective barrier between the root canal system and surrounding tissues. If there is no healing in the periradicular tissues after non-surgical endodontic treatment or if retreatment becomes impossible, surgical endodontic treatment is required. Apical resection is a surgical technique that involves removing the root tip of the tooth and closing the apical portion of the root canal system. An ideal retrograde filling material should be non-toxic, non-carcinogenic and biocompatible. It must also have dimensional stability and sealing properties. Amalgam, glass ionomer cements, and zinc oxide-eugenol based materials have been used for root end fillings in periapical surgery, but the desired success was not achieved. Today, Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) is preferred as a retrograde filling material due to its superior sealing properties, ability to harden in the presence of blood and moisture, antibacterial effects, biocompatibility and radiopacity. In the researchers' study, the effect of apical resection after orthograde canal filling and retrograde canal filling during apical resection on postoperative recovery will be compared. In both canal filling techniques, Sure-Seal Root MTA (Sure Dent Corporation-Korea) will be used as the filling material. Sure-Seal Root MTA is a calcium silicate based paste that is typically pre-mixed and ready to apply, exhibits excellent physical properties and does not show shrinkage during the curing process. As the manufacturer states, it is hydrophilic, biocompatible, has ideal setting and working time. Our faculty has piezosurgical ultrasonics (Mectron ®, Grassobbio BG, Italy). After the root tip resection is performed, the retrograde cavity will be prepared with Woodpecker ultrasonic tips (Guilin, China) compatible with this device. In our study using these materials and devices, a comparative analysis of the effects of different canal filling techniques on lesion healing and improvement in clinical symptoms will be made.
This study was designed to investigate the effects of Square-Stepping Exercise Training on cognitive functions and quality of life in geriatric individuals. The volunteer participants in the study were randomly divided into two groups: a square-stepping exercise group and a control group. In the study, participants in the exercise training groups received square stepping exercises three days a week for six weeks, while those in the control group did not undergo any training. Both groups were assessed before and six weeks after the training period. The investigators used several assessment tools including Hodkinson's Mental Test, Montreal Cognitive Assessment, Stroop Test, Trail Making Test, and the Turkish World Health Organization Quality-of-Life Scale.
The elderly population is increasing in Turkey and in the world. Many health problems, such as a decrease in physical and psychological abilities and an increase in chronic problems, occur with aging. It is important to encourage and support practices for the development of exercises to increase physical and cognitive capacity in order to early recognize and reduce the effects of problems that develop with aging. To the best of our knowledge, there is no exercise training to increase reaction time in the elderly in the literature.
This study aimed to compare the distribution of subgingival periodontal pathogens following non-surgical periodontal therapy in smoking and non-smoking people with periodontitis. The main question it aims to answer is: - Does smoking affect the results of non-surgical periodontal treatment on subgingival flora in participants with periodontal disease? Researchers performed non-surgical periodontal therapy on 48 participants with stage III/IV periodontitis and recorded clinical measurements. They obtained subgingival plaque samples from periodontal pockets at the onset and after four weeks of treatment, determining the level of periodontopathogens using a polymerase chain reaction-based method.
The main purpose of this study is to determine if retatrutide can significantly lower the incidence of serious heart-related complications or prevent the worsening of kidney function. The trial will enroll adults with body mass index 27 kg/m^2 or higher and Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease and/or chronic kidney disease.
In the study, easy-to-access and easy-to-use reflexologic magnetic insoles were used in women with primary dysmenorrhea who did not want to receive medical treatment; In addition to reducing symptoms such as pain, nausea, dizziness, fainting, vomiting, weakness, constipation/acute gastroenteritis, it is aimed to increase individuals' participation in daily life activities and increase their quality of life by increasing their emotional state.
The aim of this study is to investigate its validity and reliability of the questionarre whose original English name was "Calgary Sleep Apnea Quality of Life Index" which we plan to translate into Turkish as Sleep Apnea Quality of Life Index.
It is aimed to investigate the relationship between anxiety, depression, stress and physical activities of disabled athletes prepared for the paralympic games to be held in Tokyo in 2021, 3 times in total at 2-3 months intervals, and to determine the change over time
This study assesses the test-retest reliability, construct validity, and minimal detectable change of the Ankylosing Spondylitis Performance Index (ASPI) in assessing the physical function of patients with Enthesitis-related arthritis (ERA).
