The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of plantar two-point discrimination on hip-knee-ankle position sense in children with toe walking.The main questions it aims to answer are: - Are two-point discrimination and light pressure sensation in the plantar region affected in children with idiopathic toe gait? - Does the two-point discrimination in the plantar in general and the heel in particular affect the position sense of the hip-knee and ankle?
Chronic neck pain is a common problem in our society. With the Neck Disability Index, we can classify the functional status of individuals with chronic neck pain as "no restriction, mildly limited, moderately limited, severely restricted, completely limited". In this study, the difference between cognitive functions, kinesiophobia and neck awareness between those who have a functional status according to the Neck Disability Index and those whose functional status is "slightly limited-moderately restricted" and those who are "severely limited-totally limited" will be investigated with questionnaires and evaluations. The study will provide information about whether there is a difference between individuals with chronic neck pain regarding cognitive functions, kinesiophobia and neck awareness according to their functional status. Thus, it will contribute to the literature to provide clinicians with awareness about the functionality levels in chronic neck pain and to consider individuals within this framework.

The main hypothesis is that pregnant women included in the mindful breastfeeding program have higher postpartum breastfeeding awareness, breastfeeding adaptation and breastfeeding self-efficacy.
Peripheral nerve entrapment neuropathies are the most common mononeuropathies in clinical practice. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), n. It occurs as a result of compression of the medianus as it passes through the carpal tunnel, a narrow osteofibrous canal. CTS is the most common entrapment neuropathy of the upper extremity, affecting approximately 3% of the general adult population. This study, which was designed as a randomized controlled study, will include 36 patients with CTS, aged between 18-65, who applied to Kırşehir Ahi Evran University Training and Research Hospital. In our study, both groups will be given 10 minutes of paraffin, 20 minutes of TENS, and 10 repetitions of tendon gliding exercise, 3 days a week for a total of 3 weeks (9 sessions). EESDT will be applied once a week in both groups (one group at 4 bar and the other at 1.5 bar pressure). Measurements will be made before treatment, after treatment, and at 12 weeks post-treatment. In the literature, different pressure parameters were used in studies examining the efficacy of ESDT in the treatment of CTS. Although ESDT has been shown to have a curative effect on CTS, there is no consensus on which pressure parameter is more effective. Therefore, in this study, the effectiveness of ESDT applied at different pressure parameters in the treatment of CTS will be examined.
Objectives: Musculoskeletal problems have been a concern in dentists for years. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between posture and musculoskeletal pain in dentists.
Since gestational diabetes carries the risk of serious complications for the mother and fetus, it is very important to follow up the pregnancy carefully and consciously. Home follow-up and prenatal care of these pregnant women, whose outpatient follow-up is continued without hospitalization, gains great importance. This study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study to determine the effects of home midwifery care based on the continuous midwifery care model for pregnant women diagnosed with gestational diabetes, on the attitudes and self-care of pregnant women. The universe of this research, which will be carried out in a randomized controlled experimental type, will consist of pregnant women who applied to Çukurova University Balcalı Hospital Health Application and Research Center Gynecology and Obstetrics Department Pregnancy Polyclinic. The sample number was calculated by the Sample Size Calculator analysis and it was planned to include 24 participants in the experimental group and 24 participants in the control group. Single-blind randomized assignment and block randomization will be performed to avoid selection bias. The research will be conducted in the form of pre-test and post-test. The pre-test will be applied at the first encounter before the midwifery training, and the post-test will be applied after the 6th training. Data; It will be collected with the Pregnant Introductory Form, Intention, Attitude and Behavior Scale in Gestational Diabetes and Diabetes Self-Care Activities Questionnaire. Statistical Program for Social Science 22 will be used in data analysis. The data will be analyzed with appropriate analysis methods after testing for normality. The main subject of this research is to improve maternal and fetal health by providing continuous midwifery care at home for pregnant women who are diagnosed with gestational diabetes and are in the risky pregnancies group. With individual and continuous midwifery care provided at home, the self-care of women is strengthened and the intention, behavior and attitude towards both pregnancy and the health problem she has experienced are positively affected, contributing to the reduction of possible complications and providing a cost-effective service reveals the importance and necessity of the research.
In this study is the first prospective trial that compares the efficacy of TTNS in antimuscarinic naive and refractory women with idiopathic OAB. In this study, it was aimed to compare the effectiveness of TTNS on quality of life (QoL) and clinical parameters related to OAB in antimuscarinic naive and refractory women. The results of this study would make it easier to understand the place of TTNS among the treatment options in women with idiopathic OAB.
Urodynamic studies are objective diagnostic methods recommended and used in the evaluation and diagnosis of urinary incontinence, which is a very common problem that can significantly affect women's health and quality of life, cause social and economic losses. With these examinations, objective observation of bladder functions, repetition and classification of patients' symptoms, and identification of the underlying pathological cause, if possible, are provided in the evaluation of lower urinary system dysfunctions; In this way, the diagnosis is made, the choice of treatment is affected, the results of the treatment can be predicted and appropriate counseling can be given to the patients. Although conventional urodynamics is currently accepted as the gold standard test in the investigation of lower urinary tract symptoms, non-physiological retrograde bladder filling may adversely affect the test results and patients have to be under observation on the examination table while being examined with the conventional urodynamic method. Conventional method may not be effective enough in revealing the etiopathogenesis of lower urinary system symptoms, because they cannot perform activities where lower urinary system symptoms occur. Although many studies have shown that the diagnostic value of ambulatory urodynamics (AU) is higher in urogynecology clinical practice, it was not found suitable for routine investigation due to its longer duration, time-consuming and cost-effectiveness. For this reason, its routine use has been limited in international guidelines for AU in cases where conventional urodynamics is insufficient in the diagnosis, by indicating its application. In the AU method, all physiopathological changes in the lower urinary system can be observed synchronously, since the bladder filling is orthograde, not retrograde, that is, the lower urinary system is examined while the physiological urine is filled, not liquid, and the patients can perform the activities they want, and the symptoms that occur during these activities can be recorded by the patient. Despite the advantages of performing it under these conditions, it takes a long time to be evaluated with 2-4 voiding cycles and is used as a second step in cases that cannot be diagnosed by conventional urodynamics. In the previous studies performed by us, it was seen that the results of the ambulatory urodynamic examination performed with a single voiding cycle were similar to the studies in the literature using multiple voiding cycles. However, at the moment, there is no study in the literature that determines the optimal duration of this test. For these reasons, this study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the test at the end of a single voiding cycle with that at the end of multiple (2 to 4) voiding cycles.
Objective: Migration status is one of the most important factors affecting perinatal mental health. National and international organizations emphasize the need to improve perinatal mental health. This research was planned as a pretest-posttest control group experimental model in order to determine the effect of midwifery education based on Pender's Health Promotion Model on the perinatal mental health of migrant women under the leadership of midwives. Materials and Methods: The population of this study, which will be conducted in randomized controlled experimental type, will be Syrian immigrant pregnant women living in Seyhan district. The number of samples will be calculated by G*power analysis, and 52 participants in the experimental group and 52 participants in the control group will be included. Single-blind random assignment and block randomization will be used to avoid selection bias. The research will be conducted in the form of pre-test and post-test. The pre-test will be applied during the pregnancy period before the education and the post-test will be applied in the postpartum period after the education. 3 modules of training on perinatal mental health will be given to the experimental group in order to eliminate the lack of knowledge of women and to raise awareness. The control group will be left to routine clinical care. Data; Introductory Information Form, Perinatal Mental Health Education Evaluation Form, Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale and Perinatal Anxiety Screening Scale will be collected. Statistical Program for Social Science 22 will be used in data analysis. The independent variable of the research is perinatal mental health education based on Pender's Health Promotion Model. The dependent variable is the introductory characteristics of women, questions about perinatal mental health education, anxiety and depression levels. The data will be analyzed with appropriate analysis methods after performing normality tests.
