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.
Bladder and bowel dysfunction (BBD) describes the urinary tract symptoms associated with bowel complaints. Urotherapy and pharmacological treatments are used in conservative BBD treatment. Pilates is an exercise method that includes a series of movements that both strengthen and increase flexibility of the entire body without focusing on a specific muscle. Reformer pilates is a specific type that provides resistance exercise at certain weights with the pulley system relying basically on the same principles. Pilates exercises provide breathing and activation of the deep stabilizing muscles of the trunk in coordination with the pelvic floor muscles (PFMs). Despite the increasing number of health care professionals using the pilates-based approach in rehabilitation. The pilates-based exercises in rehabilitation is still insufficient in the literature7. To our knowledge, none of studies which were investigated the usefulness of pilates-based exercise principle in children with BBD. This study was aimed to investigate the effect of reformer pilates exercises on bladder and bowel dysfunction symptoms and quality of life in children with bladder and bowel dysfunction.
Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) can lead to many clinical conditions and affect oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL).
Stroke is still one of the top causes of death and adult-onset disability in the world. Despite physiotherapy and rehabilitation, a sizable percentage of chronic stroke patients are permanently disabled. These neurological deficiencies include cognitive impairment, sensory impairment, loss of coordination, spasticity, dysphasia, dysphagia, visual field dysfunction, and weakness.
Introduction: Although there are physiotherapy programs that are widely used in the treatment of Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD), there are few studies investigating the effects of home exercises program specifically developed for TMD. Aim: Investigators aimed to investigate the effect of home exercise program on pain and quality of life in TMD treatment. Methods: 20 patients were included in our pilot study and were randomised into two groups. Home exercises program and physiotherapy program were applied to the intervention group (n=10; age 31.4±11.2 years), and only physiotherapy program to the control group (n=10, age 35.3±18.1 years). Physiotherapy program included ultrasound (US), Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) and exercise. Investigators measured pain with the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and quality of life with the Short Form 36 (SF-36) before and after the treatment.
Wireless EFM shortens labor duration, increases birth satisfaction, and reduces perceived pain during labor. With wireless EFM, comfort in labor increases and higher labor comfort increases birth satisfaction. As perceived pain in labor decreases, birth satisfaction increases. Therefore, wireless EFM practice is recommended during the antepartum and intrapartum periods.
Development; It covers the areas of physical, mental, emotional and social development. Development in one area affects other areas as well. Infancy is the period in which children grow and develop the fastest. Babies need many environmental factors and stimulants in order to have a healthy developmental process. For the Covid 19 pandemic, many restrictions have been made in Turkey to reduce the spread of the epidemic and to maintain social distance between people. It has been suggested that individuals practice their own social isolation. It has also caused babies who spend their time at home during the pandemic process to be deprived of environmental stimuli. In current studies in the literature, it has been reported that the COVID-19 pandemic affects infant and child development significantly and negatively. It has been reported that the risk of delay in children who have experienced the COVID-19 pandemic is especially in the fine motor and communication areas. There is a limited number of studies in the literature on this subject. No study was found in Turkey. The aim of this study is to evaluate the neuromotor development of infants in early childhood (6-24 months) in the Covid-19 pandemic and to reveal the effects of the pandemic process. Denver II Developmental Screening Test was used to evaluate the neuromotor development of healthy infants aged 6-24 months, who applied to the healthy pediatric outpatient clinic of Acıbadem Altunizade Hospital, and Alberta Infant Motor Scale was used to evaluate gross motor functions.
The goal of this clinical trial is to analyze implications of two alternative nudge-interventions to increase adherence to palivizumab prophylaxis in children with congenital heart disease. The main questions investigators aim to answer are: - Are well-established cognitive biases effective in increasing patient families' adherence to the palivizumab prophylaxis program? - What are the factors that affect families' adherence to the prophylaxis program and whether and how the effects of interventions depend on these factors? To study these questions investigators planned to utilize four well-established cognitive biases in designing two alternative nudge-interventions and investigators measured the effectiveness of each nudge-intervention against a control group. Patients were randomly allocated to one control and two treatment groups. In the control group, investigators informed participants about the prophylaxis program and provided a schedule. Patients in the first treatment group were additionally called two days before appointments (status quo bias), and were asked to plan the appointment day (implementation intention). Patients in the second treatment group received biweekly messages informing them about the benefits of the program as well as the current adherence rate (availability bias and social norm).
It is aIt is aimed to examine the possible benefits and effects of the use of Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation to be applied in healthy individuals for sportive purposes on recovery and sportive performance level.
This study examines the effects of prosthetic treatment options applied to edentulous geriatric individuals who applied to Marmara University Faculty of Dentistry on chewing function, food consumption status, malnutrition status and oral health-related quality of life.
In this comparative trial, 50 patients with shallow vestibules and Type 1/2 recessions will be treated with either a vertically coronally advanced flap + connective tissue graft or a free gingival graft. At baseline, 3rd-month, 6th-month, and 12th-month visits, the following parameters will be evaluated: buccal vestibular depth, keratinized tissue height, gingival thickness, recession depth, recession width, probing depth, and clinical attachment level. Keratinized tissue change, gingival thickness change, root coverage, clinical attachment gain, and complete root coverage will be calculated. The wound healing index, tissue appearance, patient expectations, aesthetics, and dentin hypersensitivity will be assessed at baseline and at the 6th week.
