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.
Introduction: Fatigue is a serious symptom that is seen in a significant portion of IBD patients and negatively affects the patient's quality of life. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of patient education on the management of fatigue, which is common in inflammatory bowel diseases. Material and methods: This study will be planned with nonrandomized control group, pretest-posttest design. It is planned that the sample group will consist of at least 84 patients, 42 of which are in the intervention group and 42 in the control group. The patients in the intervention group will be evaluated in terms of fatigue and factors that may affect it, and an individualized education program will be offered according to the needs of the patient.For the patients in the control group, only the scales used in data collection will be filled, and no education will be planned. One month after the first interviews, both groups will fill in the scales again.
Aim: The aim of this study is to reveal the effectiveness of cognitive stimulation therapy on activities of daily living, depression and life satisfaction in individuals with mild dementia living in nursing homes.
This study aims to assess the impact of real-time ultrasound (US) use on complication rates and procedural success in percutaneous dilational tracheostomy (PDT) opened with forceps dilatation technique using anatomical landmarks.
In this study, it was aimed to determine the effects of listening to music and applying a stress ball on patients' anxiety level and hemodynamic parameters during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
The study will contribute to answering the question of 'in which exercise types of single-leg and double-leg exercise protocols will affect whether fatigue occurs early or not, and muscle activations will occur. In response to this question, clinicians will prefer to focus on which type of exercise produces more muscle activation and late fatigue. Few studies have been done on single and double leg bicycle ergometers in the literature. From these studies; While examining the lactate and EMG threshold values after cycling ergometer training, another study compared the effectiveness of single and double leg cycling ergometers. In the literature, EMG and dynamic balance were not used in the comparison after single and double leg bicycle ergometer training. In this study, the effectiveness of single and double legged bicycle ergometers will be compared by looking at EMG and dynamic balance changes.
The main purpose of this study is to measure how well imlunestrant works compared to standard hormone therapy in participants with early breast cancer that is estrogen receptor positive (ER+) and human epidermal receptor 2 negative (HER2-). Participants must have already taken endocrine therapy for two to five years and must have a higher-than-average risk for their cancer to return. Study participation could last up to 10 years.
In this study, it is aimed to examine the factors that cause knee hyperextension in chronic stroke patients. Although the presence of weakness or spasticity in the quadriceps muscle, weakness or spasticity in the plantar flexors, and weakness of the dorsiflexors, hamstrings and gastrocnemius muscle are shown in the literature as the cause of hyperextension of the affected knee in hemiplegic patients, there is a comprehensive study that shows the effect of both muscle strength and spasticity in the lower extremity muscles. there are no studies. The hypotheses of the study are: Hypothesis 1: H0: There is no relationship between knee hyperextension in the stance phase of gait and lower extremity muscle strength in stroke patients. H1: There is a relationship between knee hyperextension in the stance phase of gait and lower extremity muscle strength in stroke patients. Hypothesis 2; H0: There is no relationship between knee hyperextension in the stance phase of gait and lower extremity spasticity in stroke patients. H1: There is a relationship between knee hyperextension in the stance phase of gait and lower extremity spasticity in stroke patients. Hypothesis 3; H0: There is no relationship between knee hyperextension and electromyographic muscle activations in chronic stroke patients. H1: There is a relationship between knee hyperextension and electromyographic muscle activations in chronic stroke patients.
IT WAS AIMED TO EVALUATE IF MBPC CAN BE USED IN PREDICTION OF EARLY BIRTH. TAKING THE FIRST TRIMESTER FROM PREGNANCY WAS STORED UNTIL THE TIMING OF DELIVERY.THE PARTICIPANTS WERE SEPARATED INTO TWO GROUPS ACCORDING TO THE TIME OF BIRTH, EARLY AND TIMELY. SERUM MBPC LEVELS BETWEEN TWO GROUPS EVALUATED.
OBJECTIVES: The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of drip versus intermittent feeding on splanchnic oxygenation in preterm infants with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). The second objective was to assess the relationship between fetal splanchnic circulation parameters and splanchnic oxygenation during the first week of life. METHODS: A single-center, prospective, randomized study with 51 fetuses/infants was conducted. Fetal Doppler measurements including umbilical artery, middle cerebral artery, and superior mesenteric artery (SMA) were recorded in IUGR fetuses. After preterm delivery the infants were randomly assigned to one of two feeding modalities: drip (3-hour continuous) or intermittent (bolus in 10 minutes). Continuous regional splanchnic saturation (rSO2S) monitoring was carried out during first week of life, simultaneously with continuous oxygen arterial saturation (SaO2) monitoring and the infants' fractional oxygen extractions (FOE) were calculated. These parameters were evaluated as means on a daily basis for the first week of life, as well as pre-prandial and post-prandial measurements on the seventh day. RESULTS: Fetal Doppler flow velocimetry disturbances were present in 72.5% of the study cohort. The Drip (26 infants) and Intermittent (25 infants) groups were similar in demographic and clinical characteristics, as well as the prevalence of feeding intolerance and necrotizing enterocolitis. During the first week of life, there was no difference in daily mean rSO2S and FOE values between the Drip and Intermittent groups, whereas unfed infants had mostly lower rSO2S values. Pre-prandial and post-prandial rSO2S values remained stable in both groups. Also, no association was detected between fetal splanchnic circulation parameters and neonatal splanchnic oxygenation. RSO2S values were strongly correlated to gestational age and birth weight. During the whole week, except for the first two days, infants with umbilical catheters had significantly lower rSO2S values than infants without. CONCLUSIONS: Our data suggests that the key factor in splanchnic oxygenation is feeding, not the feeding modality. In addition, the umbilical vein catheter had a negative impact on splanchnic oxygenation.
