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.
Aim: In this study, it was aimed to determine the effect of health education given to overweight university students based on the Transtheoretic Model (TTM) on nutrition and physical activity behaviors. Materials and Methods: The research was conducted in a randomized controlled experimental design. The sample of the study consisted of 54 students, 27 of which were in the experimental group and 27 in the control group, who met the inclusion criteria between October 2021 and November 2021. Students were divided into nutrition and exercise change stages groups according to TTM. The students in the experimental group were given one-on-one health education in accordance with the TTM change stages, using the online method. In the study, data were collected using the Sociodemographic Form, Nutrition and Exercise Stage Determination Form according to TTM, Nutrition Change Processes Scale (NCPS) and Exercise Change Processes Scale (ECPS). Chi-square test and t test for dependent and independent groups were used in the analysis of the data obtained. Statistical significance level was accepted as p<0.05.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) in increasing respiratory muscle strength in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis.
The research will be conducted with healthy pregnant women who applied to the Ege University Gynecology and Obstetrics Department Polyclinic, and were referred to the Sports Medicine Department.The study will consist of two groups as the control group and the exercise group.Voluntary pregnant women who are not found to be inconvenient to do moderate-intensity exercise by the doctor will participate in the study.The study was planned as a randomized controlled and single-blind study.The participant's demographic information, obstetric assessment, physical activity level, fall history and pain assessment will be recorded.Foot plantar pressure, static and dynamic balance, center of pressure (COP), subtalar joint evaluation and gait evaluation will be measured by pedobarography at Ege University Orthopedics and Traumatology Department Gait Laboratory.The control group will be offered walking as recommended by ACOG for pregnant women.Clinical exercise training will be given to pregnant women in the study group by a specialist physiotherapist.
Thanks to recent advances in clinical practice and laboratory, embryo cryopreservation has become the first-line procedure in assisted reproductive technology. Improved laboratory techniques have increased the number of available embryos derived from an in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycle. Implementation of a single embryo transfer policy to improve vitrification, improve postwarm embryo survival rates, and reduce multiple pregnancies without reducing cumulative birth rates has contributed to an increase in the number of frozen-warms (1,2) Embryo freezing; It is becoming an adopted practice for an increasing number of indications, including prevention of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, preimplantation genetic testing (PGT), late follicular phase progesterone elevation, and embryo-endometrial asynchrony. In our study, we are investigating the effect of pre-transfer serum progesterone levels on pregnancy outcomes in patients who underwent frozen-thawed embryo transfer.Supplementary progesterone preparations can be used to prevent luteal phase defect and to provide progesterone support in cycle preparations for frozen-thawed embryo transfer(3). The aim in this study is to show the effect of serum progesterone level on the pregnancy results on the day of embryo transfer in natural cycles.
Bening's Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH), which is closely related to aging, is one of the most common diseases in the world. Although it is not a life-threatening condition, lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are seen in many patients, which disrupts their daily activities, sleep patterns, and quality of life of the patients. Examination of changes in sleep and quality of life after transurethral resection of the prostate (TUR-P) in patients with LUTS due to BPH and planning training according to their needs will positively affect the lives of these patients. It is very important for nurses to provide individual training and counseling by making use of innovative technology to ensure that patients manage the surgical process in a healthy way and cope with possible complications. This thesis study was planned as a three-group randomized controlled experimental study in order to determine the effect of e-mobile training and counseling on quality of life and sleep in patients who underwent TUR-P to manage the operative process and cope with possible complications.
Purpose: This study determined the effects of Kinesiotaping and Stretching on pain, cervical joint range of motion and functional status in patients with myofascial pain due to temporomandibular joint disorder. Methods: 33 patients with myofascial pain due to temporomandibular joint disorder were included in the study. The patients were divided into three groups by simple randomization (Kinesiotaping group, Stretching group and Control group). Patients in the Kinesiotaping and Stretching groups received application for their Upper Trapezius and Sternocleidomastoid muscles twice a week for two weeks by the same physiotherapist. No application was made to the Control group. Cervical joint range of motion, muscle strength and pain were evaluated. Additionally, algometry tests and functional evaluation were performed. The tests were performed in the Kinesiotaping and Stretching groups before the applications and at the end of week 1 and week 2, on the other hand Control group evaluated before the application and at the end of week 2.
This prospective observational study aimed to evaluate the relationship between menstrual phase cycles and spinal needle-puncture pain during spinal anesthesia in female patients of reproductive age.
Aim: This research will be carried out to determine the effect of distracting methods on fear and anxiety in children before the COVID test.
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of the tele-exercise program applied to children with cystic fibrosis in the Covid-19 pandemic on the quality of life and the symptoms experienced during exercise
Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) is a complex syndrome that mainly includes the musculoskeletal system and is characterized by many symptoms such as chronic widespread pain, fatigue and sleep disorders, cognitive dysfunctions, regional pain syndrome, psychiatric disorders. The existence and importance of the multidimensional nature of chronic pain in FMS has been demonstrated. Factors such as pain intensity, persistence of pain, pain-related disability, and novelty of onset are all important characteristics of a chronic pain condition. Therefore, there was a need for a global measure of chronic pain severity that summarized different measures of pain and a graded classification of chronic pain was proposed. Patients with chronic pain such as FMS are known to have a greater negative impact than many chronic medical conditions. Chronic pain severity in FMS has been found to be associated with various conditions such as function and health status, and it has been shown that reduction in pain severity provides broadly beneficial results on these conditions. However; there are no studies in which chronic pain severity in FMS is classified by grading and investigating the relationship of different pain severity degrees with disease severity and other symptoms. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether the severity of the disease, kinesiophobia, and concerns about pain differ in individuals with different pain severity by grading the severity of pain in individuals with fibromyalgia syndrome.
