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.
A study to learn about a new medicine called ARV-471 (PF-07850327) in people who have advanced metastatic breast cancer.
Obesity has become an important medical and social problem in western countries today. Although many surgical procedures are performed for obesity, Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has become the most common bariatric procedure in obesity. The absence of digestive anastomosis, the absence of mesenteric defects that may cause internal hernias and foreign materials such as gastric band are among the advantages of this surgical method. Obesity is a complex multifactorial disease. Obesity is not a mental disorder, but is associated with serious serious conditions and increases the risk of mental disorders. The social label of obesity will have long-lasting devastating effects on mental health. In addition, obesity is associated with undesirable conditions; Misperception of dietary needs, self-perceived health status and potential social isolation, negative attitude towards appearance, aggression, depression, anxiety, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, behavioral problem, and bullying are some of the problems associated with obesity. Body changes are important in the experience of being different from their peers and can result in lowered self-esteem and be a barrier to social functioning. Studies on this condition have shown that obese subjects have poor social functioning and social skills. There are many factors that cause aggression, but obesity is one of them. Although there are many studies examining the relationship between overweight and aggression in children and adolescent patient groups, studies examining the adult patient group are limited. Starting from this point, we aimed to determine the change in aggression after weight loss in patients who underwent LSG surgery in the study we created.
Obesity is an important risk factor for postmenopausal breast cancer. A large meta-analysis concluded that obesity is associated with a 20% to 40% increased risk for receptor-positive postmenopausal breast cancer. The International Agency for Research on Cancer working group on obesity and cancer risk drew similar conclusions. Obesity seems to have the opposite effect among premenopausal women, with most studies suggesting that higher BMI is associated with a reduced risk of premenopausal breast cancer. Determining whether deliberate weight loss is associated with a reduced risk of breast cancer is difficult in part because sustained weight loss is difficult to achieve and few studies have sufficient statistical power to address this question. Bariatric surgery is one of the few weight loss interventions in which significant weight loss is maintained. A limited number of previous studies have suggested a reduced risk of cancer following bariatric surgery. Recently, it showed that bariatric surgery is associated with a lower risk of several types of cancer, including an approximately 40 % reduction in the risk of postmenopausal breast cancer. However, whether bariatric surgery affects breast cancer risk in premenopausal women and whether this association is altered by estrogen receptor (ER) status has not been addressed. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between weight loss after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and breast cancer.
Adequate pain management following total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a key component for patient satisfaction and early ambulation. However, due to the complexity of the innervation of the hip joint, the most appropriate anaesthetic and analgesic technique for THA remains unclear. A femoral nerve block is commonly performed and well established but is associated with motor weakness. Recently, the pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block has been introduced as an effective choice which targets the articular branches of the hip. The quadratus lumborum block (QLB) is a relatively new regional block that has been reported to provide effective analgesia for THA. The main objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of the ultrasound-guided PENG block technique compared to QLB block in terms of efficacy of pain control and the safety profile after total hip arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia.
The goal of this retrospective is to investigate the relationship between lesion site and neglect anosognosia in subacute or chronic right hemispheric stroke patients with left hemispatial neglect. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Was any lesion site related to a higher neglect anosognosia rate? - Did any lesion site related to a more severe neglect anosognosia? Participants will be divided into two groups regarding the presence of anosognosia for spatial neglect. Researchers will compare patients with and without anosognosia to see if any lesion site resulted in a higher anosognosia rate and more severe unawareness of neglect symptoms in daily life.
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of pelvic floor muscle exercises on the hemodynamic responses of the vena cava inferior in pregnant and non-pregnant women.
The study is planned to be conducted in a randomized controlled experimental design in accordance with CONSORT. The study is planned to be carried out at X Nursing Faculty between November 2022 and February 2024. The randomization list will be hidden from the students, and the group to which each student will be included will be revealed after they are included in the study. In order to determine which group the nursing students to be included in the study will be in, the "Layered Block Randomization" method will be used and they will be assigned to the experimental and control groups according to the stress scores they get from the DASS-21 scale. Assignment of intervention and control groups to conceal randomization information to avoid study bias; It will be done by an expert who was not involved in the research. The experimental group will consist of 40 students in total, 4 groups of 10 students each, and the students will receive face-to-face psychoeducation for 6 weeks, each session for 60 minutes. The control group will not receive any intervention during the application period and will be put on waitlist. After the psychoeducation, as a post-test, one month, six months and one year later, follow-up measurements will be applied face-to-face and by telephone to the students who have completed the psychoeducation, and the scores will be compared with the control group. Among the sampling criteria; Being a nursing student, getting at least 8 points (mild and above) from the stress sub-dimension of the DASS-21 scale; Exclusion criteria from the sample included starting psychiatric treatment in the last three months, having previously participated in an acceptance and commitment or mindfullness-based program. In the research, descriptive information form will be filled from the students. The level of psychological distress will be measured with the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale Short Form (DASS-21). Psychological flexibility will be measured with the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II , mindfullness with the Mindfull Attention Awareness Scale and the level of valuing with the Valuing Questionnaire . Validity and reliability studies of the scales were carried out. Institutional permission was obtained from the faculty where the research was conducted.
Purpose: The fact that young people starting university during the pandemic period continue this academic period with distance education increases the stress they experience. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine the effect of mindfulness-based psychoeducation program applied with distance education on the psychological well-being, emotional intelligence, and stress levels of youth. Method: This study was conducted in a randomized controlled manner with a pretest-posttest control group random design model. The population of the study consisted of 120 newly enrolled students in the nursing department of a foundation university, and the sample consisted of a total of 59 students who met the inclusion criteria of the study. In the sample, while 29 students formed the intervention group, 30 students formed the control group. Mindfulness-Based Psychoeducation Program (MBPP) was applied to the intervention group twice a week for 4 weeks. Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-14), Psychological Well-Being Scale (PWB), and Revised Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale (SEIS) were used as measurement tools. Further, t-test, Mann Whitney U analysis, and Wilcoxon signed-row test were used in the analysis of the data.
