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.
The data of the randomized controlled experimental research were collected at Atatürk University Health Application and Research Hospital Urology Clinics between November 2021 and May 2022. The study sample consisted of 122 patients (61 in the training group, 61 in the control group) who were selected by the simple random sampling method and met the research inclusion criteria.
Parkinson's disease is a chronic, neurodegenerative disorder characterized with the loss of dopamine-producing neurons. This loss is likely to be related with several environmental and genetic factors. One of the most important factor that is responsible for the initation and progression of the disease is oxidative stress. Exercise training, especially aerobic training, can change the levels of oxidative markers because exercise can lead to decrease oxidative stress in patients with Parkinson's disease. Therefore, this study aims to investigate (1) the effect of aerobic training on total antioxidant status, total oxidant status, glutathione, oxidative glutathione, and zonulin levels, (2) the relationship between the change of motor symptoms and disease severity and the change of total antioxidant status, total oxidant status, glutathione, oxidative glutathione, and zonulin levels.
Although obesity is a rapidly increasing epidemic worldwide, it is associated with many health-related comorbidities. As a result of the developments in social life and observes the sedentary life in individuals, an effect of the age of technology the fact that this epidemic will cause even massive health problems in the coming period affecting the health systems of countries and indirectly their economies that, This situation necessitates the creation of alternative treatment methods for the prevention of obesity. This study aims to determine the effect of a therapy approach that can be applied to the vagus nervous system, which is associated with many organs and systems, on weight loss and general health. As an alternative treatment against lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise, individuals have made for weight loss.
Headache is one of the common causes of emergency department admissions and constitutes approximately 2%. Although the exact mechanism is not clear, It is known that high-flow oxygen therapy is effective in headache treatment. There are limited studies related to the use of oxygen therapy in headaches and its derivatives in the literature. In this study, the investigators aimed to compare the high and medium flow oxygen therapies with placebo in primary headache disorders.
Investigators aimed to investigate the effects of video game habits, duration of experience, and training in different surgical clinics on the success of robotic surgery simulators. In this prospective, observational, comparative, and multi-clinic study, all participants played the Temple Run and Piano Tiles 2™ mobile games for one month after responding to a questionnaire including their sociodemographic characteristics, surgical experience, and past and current video game experience. At the end of the study period, participants experienced four different robotic surgery simulator tasks (Camera Targeting 1, Energy Switching 1, Ring & Rail 2, Vertical Defect Suturing) in the da Vinci® Skills Simulator™. Additionally, sociodemographic data were statistically analyzed with mobile game scores, and 13 different performance scores were obtained from the simulator.
In this prospective study, the investigators aim to investigate the role of trophectoderm cells and inner cell mass cells on pregnancy outcomes in blastocyst transferred in-vitro fertilization pregnancy. The investigators will support findings with bilateral uterine artery Doppler measurements to be made between the 11th and 14th weeks of pregnancy.
This research was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the skill training given to nurses on intramuscular injection with the Z technique from the VG region. Research Hypotheses H-0: The skill training given to nurses in applying intramuscular injection with the Z technique from the VG region does not affect the nurses' ability to inject with the Z technique from the VG region. H-1: The skill training given to nurses on intramuscular injection with the Z technique from the VG region affects the nurses' ability to inject with the Z technique from the VG region.
This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of white noise and therapeutic touch on pain in newborn heel blood collection.Questions including the sex of the newborns, postnatal age, gestational age, birth weight, height, head and chest circumference, feeding style, nutritional status in the last half hour, and previous heel blood collection were collected with the "Information Form".The Newborn Infant Pain Scale (NIPS) was used to evaluate the pain levels of newborns.
Regular physical activity is extremely important for the protection and development of physical and psychosocial health. In addition, acquiring regular physical activity habits in the early years of life allows maintaining numerous gains related to physical fitness, functional capacity and psychoemotional health into adulthood. Guided by scientific and technological innovations, focusing on sustainable development goals, the vision of Society 5.0 is based on digital innovation with artificial intelligence, the internet of things, digital technologies and big data, and is to increase the awareness of individuals and encourage individuals to take a role in improving their health status with wearable technology and mobile health applications. In the literature, only one study has been found on the acquisition of big data with wearable technologies for the promotion of physical activity in adolescents. The general aim of our project is to obtain smartwatch-based big data for adolescents, which will be done for the first time in the field of health and sports in our country, and to analyze the obtained data using both statistical methods and big data analytics and artificial learning methods, to develop Pediatric Physical Activity Tracking Platform (Pedi@ktivite) through physical activity algorithms and to reveal the effect of the developed system on the physical fitness of adolescents and the usability of the system with scientific evidence. Within the scope of the project, adolescents with chronic rheumatic disease will also be included in the sample group, and the effects of the system to be developed in adolescents with the chronic rheumatic disease will be demonstrated. Due to the results obtained, we believe that this technology-supported approach will be an example of good practice for other chronic diseases. As the first technology-supported and big data-oriented project for health and sports in adolescents, our project will fill an important gap and provide pioneering results for future projects, paving the way for providing services in the fields of health and sports with big data analytics and addressing physical inactivity.
In pregnancy, cephalal shift of the diaphragm caused by the enlarged uterus reduces the functional residual capacity and may increase the closure volume and predispose the pregnant woman to airway closure, leading to atelectasis. The development of atelectasis due to dermatomes retained in spinal anesthesia and intraoperative supine position may increase further. Oxygen therapy to be applied may also lead to absorption atelectasis by causing hyperoxia. The aim of our study is to evaluate the effect of oxygen support on the lungs in cesarean section operations under spinal anesthesia by lung ultrasound score and oxygen reserve index.
