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.
This study was planned to investigate the effect of TRE on the nutritional status and diet quality of individuals and to compare the effects of TRE and energy-restricted diet (ERD) in healthy overweight individuals. The female individuals were randomly divided into the TRE or ERD groups in an unbiased manner using a computer-generated block randomisation list. Individuals in the TRE group applied a diet limited to 8 hours for 8 weeks (16/8). They were fed ad libitum between 10.00 a.m-06.00 p.m and fasted between 06.00 p.m-10.00 a.m.No restrictions were imposed on the type and amount of food consumed during the feeding period. During the fasting period, individuals consumed water and non-energy drinks (tea, coffee, soda, etc.). Individuals in the ERD group followed a diet specially prepared for them for 8 weeks. At the first encounter with individuals, resting energy expenditure (REE) was measured by the indirect calorimetry method. Physical Activity Level (PAL) was determined by physical activity record. The total energy expenditure (TEE) of individuals was determined using the 'REE x PAL' formulation. 'TEE-500 kcal' formulation was used for the diet to be given to individuals. Individuals were not given a diet containing energy below the REE. Acceptable macronutrient distribution range (AMDR) were taken as dietary content. The diet given to individuals has 45-65% carbohydrate, 20-35% fat, 10-35% protein content. Nutritional habits of individuals were taken into consideration while planning the diet. Each individual consumed 3 main meals and the number of snacks was determined individually. Food exchange lists were given to individuals and nutrient changes were explained in detail. Anthropometric and body composition measurements of individuals were taken. The energy expenditure was measured using indirect calorimetry. Blood pressure and heart rate measurements were made. Biochemical parameters were evaluated and food consumption were taken. The quality of dietary intake was assessed using the Healthy Eating Index (HEI) -2015.
The main aim of this study is to find out whether applying both pain neuroscience education (PNE) and motor imagery-based exercise protocol (MIEP) will primarily reduce the pain of fibromyalgia. These therapies could show an evidence of improvement in fibromyalgia patients. However, there are no studies evaluating their effectiveness in combination. Secondary outcomes: To assess motor imagery ability of PNE in fibromyalgia patients To assess motor imagery ability of MIEP in fibromyalgia patients To evaluate the motor imagery ability of PNE+MIEP combined in fibromyalgia patients To evaluate pain beliefs of PNE in fibromyalgia patients To assess the pain beliefs of MIEP in fibromyalgia patients Combined PNE+MIEP to assess pain beliefs in fibromyalgia patients. To assess fear of movement in fibromyalgia patients of PNE To assess fear of movement in fibromyalgia patients of MIEP Combined PNE+MIEP to assess fear of movement in patients with fibromyalgia PNE to assess anxiety, depression, cognitive and mood in patients with fibromyalgia. To assess anxiety, depression, cognitive and mood in patients with fibromyalgia MIEP To evaluate anxiety, depression, cognitive and mood in patients with fibromyalgia together with PNE+MIEP PNE to assess self-esteem and body awareness in fibromyalgia patients. To assess self-esteem and body awareness in fibromyalgia patients of MIEP Combined PNE+MIEP to assess self-esteem and body awareness in fibromyalgia patients.
Postoperative pain management is one of the important factors to improve rehabilitation and enhance recovery. External oblique intercostal plane block may be used for abdominal wall analgesia to provide effective analgesia for abdominal surgery. The aim of this study is to investigate the postoperative analgesic efficacy of external oblique intercostal plane block and subcostal transversus abdominis plane block in living liver donors. Researchers will compare the external oblique intercostal plane block group with subcostal transversus abdominis plane block to see if the external oblique intercostal plane block is effective for postoperative analgesia in living liver donors.
Surgical extraction of impacted wisdom teeth creates a high level of anxiety on patients. Anxiety in patients can affect the difficulty of tooth extraction, prolong the duration of surgery and increase post-operative pain. With the increasing internet usage in recent years; patients can access different information about surgical procedures by watching videos on various social media platforms in an uncontrolled manner. In the literature, the effects of impacted tooth extraction videos, which are watched by physicians before the operation, on anxiety have been examined. However, studies on the evaluation of the effect of the surgery videos watched by the patients before the surgery on their own will on anxiety and pain perception have been limited.
This study aimed to establish the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Pediatric Haemophilia Activities List (short - PedHALshort) questionnaire.
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an inflammatory skin disease that causes painful lesions in the axilla (underarm), inguinal (groin) and anogenital (anal/genital) regions. This study will assess how safe and effective upadacitinib is in treating adult and adolescent participants with moderate to severe HS who have failed to respond to or are intolerant of anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapy. Adverse events and change in disease activity will be assessed. Upadacitinib is an approved drug for ulcerative colitis, atopic dermatitis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and axial spondylarthritis and is being developed for the treatment of HS. This study is "double-blinded", meaning that neither the trial participants nor the study doctors will know who will be given upadacitinib and who will be given placebo. This study is comprised of 3 periods. In Period 1, participants are randomized into 2 groups called treatment arms where each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 2 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo. In Period 2, participants are placed into 6 different groups depending on their placement and results in Period 1. Period 3 is the long-term extension period where participants will continue treatment from Period 2. Approximately 1328 adult and adolescent participants diagnosed with HS will be enrolled in approximately 275 sites worldwide. Participants will receive oral tablets of upadacitinib or placebo once daily for 36 weeks in Period 1 and Period 2. Eligible participants from Period 1 and Period 2 will enter Period 3 and receive oral tablets of upadacitinib or placebo once daily for 68 weeks. Participants will be followed up for approximately 30 days. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular outpatient visits during the study. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
The study consists of two groups doing resistance exercise for the first and last two hours of the HD session. The investigators are planning to form the sample size of exercise training from 40 participants, which the investigators determined according to the power analysis the investigators have done based on the blood pressure outcome criterion. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria the investigators have set will be divided into two groups. A resistance exercise training will be given three days a week for eight weeks, with a total of 24 sessions. The number of IRCAs occurring in both groups and blood pressure values to be measured at the beginning and end of the HD session will be checked, and both parameters will be compared between the groups before and after the treatment after 8 weeks of training. Thus, the investigators aim to show how the time factor has an effect on blood pressure. In addition, muscle strength, physical performance and quality of life of participants before and after resistance exercise will be evaluated and compared between groups. The participants' blood pressure will be evaluated with a conventional cuffed sphygmomanometer, muscle strength, digital hand dynamometer, physical performance, Short Physical Performance Battery and Timed Up and Go Test, and their quality of life will be evaluated with the Kidney Disease Quality of Life-36 (KDQOL-36) quality of life questionnaire. In exercise training, sandbags will be used as resistance. In our study, which the investigators planned as a randomized controlled trial, stratified randomization method will be used to distribute the gender factor homogeneously in both groups.
This study is being conducted to determine the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of INCB099280 in participants with advanced Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma.
