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 evaluated the clinical and biochemical aspects of flap design in dental implant applications regarding implantation success and patient comfort. In this split-mouth randomized controlled clinical trial, a vertical releasing incision was made at the distal end of the crestal incision on the test side, and the control side received a crestal incision alone. Sixty-eight implants were placed in 17 patients. Peri-implant groove fluid was collected on postsurgical days 3, 7, 30, and 90; OPG and RANKL levels were assessed to determine bone formation and resorption around the implants. Cortisol levels were assessed in peri-implant groove fluid at postsurgical days 3, 7, and 14. Visual analog scale (VAS), and swelling measurements were taken postoperatively. Panoramic and periapical X-rays were obtained immediately post-surgery and at 3 months. No significant marginal bone loss difference was observed between the test and control sides at 3 months. The RANKL/OPG ratio, cortisol levels, VAS scores, and swelling scores were higher in the test vs. control sides. Overall, while the use of a vertical incision has advantages, such as increasing the visual field of the surgeon and improving the ease of the operation, this approach should be used only when necessary, given the disadvantages of increased bone resorption mediators in the peri-implant tissue and reduced postoperative patient comfort.
The aim was to examine the relationship between home literacy of parents whose has children who use cohlear implant and family demographic characteristics and phonological awareness skills of children with cochlear implant.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in the effect of different lifestyle interventions in overweight and obese participants. The main questions it aims to answer are: - effect on anthropometric measurements - effect on lipid profile - effect on weight-related quality of life - observe the differences between interventions The study participants were stratified into three groups: intervention, control-1, and control-2. - Intervention group: They were given a calorie-restricted diet and exercise plan by a dietician or physiotherapist at their first visit, and were followed up by telephone calls at weeks 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 over 12 weeks. - Control-1 group: During the initial medical interview, the participants were given a calorie-restricted diet programme by a dietician and an exercise programme by a physiotherapist; they were followed up over 12 weeks with telephone calls at week 4. - Control-2 group: The participants were not provided with any programme, and the importance of weight loss was emphasised by the family physicians. Dietary and physical activity advice was given according to the recommendations in the Turkish Endocrine and Metabolism Association 2019 Obesity Diagnosis and Treatment Guide, and was followed up with phone calls at weeks 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 over a 12-weeks.
Patients applied to the anesthesia clinics of Health Science University Istanbul Kanuni Sultan Suleyman Training and Research Hospital and Basaksehir Cam and Sakura City Hospital were included in the study. Evaluation forms which will be filled in every preoperative examinations will be saved in the hospitals systems. Patients datas without indentification informations will be asked to ChatGpt to give anesthesiological risc scores. This scores will be compared with the scores already given by anesthesiologists.
Swallowing disorder in stroke patients is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality as it can cause aspiration pneumonia. Electrical stimulation has proven to be effective in post-stroke dysphagic patients.10 patients who have symptoms of post-stroke dysphagia, meet the inclusion criteria and volunteer to participate will be included in the study. Included patients will be randomized into 2 groups. The exercise program will be applied to both groups as a home program for 4 weeks.
Purpose: The physical, physiological, and functional characteristics of archers affect target shooting performance. In our study, we aimed to examine the effect of pulmonary functions and respiratory muscle strength on sports performance in archers. Methods: Our study included 46 (27 female, 19 male) professional archers registered in archery sports clubs. Sociodemographic and physical characteristics were recorded. Pulmonary function test (PFT), respiratory muscle strength, shooting performance test, Moberg-pickup collection test, Nelson hand reaction test, and Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) were applied to all participants.
The study compares the effects of various anesthetic techniques on anterior approach total hip arthroplasty results retrospectively
This study aims to evaluate the effect of blended self-directed learning with concept mapping on the level of knowledge regarding parenteral drug administration in nursing students. With out-of-class, online, interactive teaching methods, a memorable learning away from complex structure is aimed.
The aim of this randomized-controlled study was to determine the effectiveness of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) applied simultaneously to exercise on pain, static endurance of cervical deep flexor muscles, fear of movement and disability in chronic neck pain. The participants were randomly assigned to one group which in only five clinical pilates exercises were performed (Group I) or the other group which NMES was applied on lower trapezius and serratus anterior muscles while the same exercises were performing (Group II).
The purpose of this study was planned to examine the effect of the education given through digital storytelling method on fathers' breastfeeding self-efficacy perception. The research is in a quasi-experimental design with no pretest-posttest control group.
