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 aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Therapeutic Neuroscience Education (TNE) in individuals with Fibromyalgia (FM). The study included 25 females with FM, randomly separated into two groups as the intervention group (Clinical Pilates Exercises+TNE, n=11) and the control group (Clinical Pilates Exercises, n=14).
This study was planned as a randomized controlled experiment. It was aimed to examine the effect of progressive relaxation exercises applied to intensive care nurses on fatigue. The sociodemographic information of the participants will be collected with the 'Personal Information Form' and their fatigue levels with the 'Fatigue Severity Scale'. SPSS 22.0 package program will be used in the analysis of the data. p<0.05 will be considered significant.
This study, it was aimed to investigate the relationship between serum regucalcin level and liver fibrosis level in patients with CHB infection.
Purpose: This study will be conducted to determine the effect of digital game supported web-based breastfeeding education and counseling on breastfeeding self-efficacy, breastfeeding success and breast problems. Method: This is an experimental study with a randomized controlled pretest-posttest parallel group, and 30 women will be included in the experimental group and 30 women in the control group. In the study, Pregnant Women's Individual and Obstetric Characteristics Evaluation Form, Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale Short Form (EÖYÖ), LATCH Breastfeeding Assessment Tool, Breastfeeding Evaluation Scale (IBFAT), Breastfeeding Behavior and Breast Problems Evaluation Form will be used. The data will be analyzed in SPSS program. In the Digital Game Supported Web-Based Breastfeeding Education and Counseling Program, the educational content prepared by the researcher will be integrated into the game program designed with the gamification technique. An education program will be applied to the women in the experimental group during pregnancy and postpartum period. Women in the control group will receive the standard breastfeeding training in the hospital. Measurement tools will be applied to all participants for a total of three times, once before birth and twice after birth. Conclusion and Suggestions: In this planned study, it was aimed to teach women about breastfeeding in a digital environment in a fun way. It is thought that web-based breastfeeding education and counseling supported by digital games will have a positive effect on breastfeeding self-efficacy, breastfeeding success and breast problems.
The study aimed to investigate the effects of strengthening and relaxation exercises on pain, anxiety, and sleep quality. 76 post-covid patients were randomized into experimental and control groups. Experimental group patients performed strengthening and relaxation exercises 3 times a week for 8 weeks. Control group patients did not perform any program. All participants were assessed with McGill Pain Scale short form (SFMPQ), short-form 36 (SF-36), Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) before and after the study.
The aim of this study is; detection of interleukin(IL)-38, IL-36 gamma(γ) , IL-17 and matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)-9 levels in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF), saliva and serum samples of periodontally healthy, gingivitis and periodontitis patients and the possible correlation between these values and clinical parameters of periodontal diseases. Materials and methods: Samples were obtained from 90 systemically healthy non-smoker individuals with periodontitis (P, n=30), gingivitis(G, n=30) and healthy periodontium (S, n=30). Full-mouth clinical periodontal measurements including probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), bleeding on probing (BOP), gingival index (GI) and plaque index (PI) were also recorded. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine IL-38, IL-36γ, IL-17 and MMP-9 levels in the biological samples.
This is a randomized controlled trial. The aim of the study is to the effects of Virtual Reality and Local Cold-Vibration applications in reducing anxiety, fear and pain due to intravenous catheterization (PIC) in children aged 5-10 years. PIC was found to be effective in reducing anxiety, fear and pain due to peripheral intravenous catheterization.
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a growing health concern affecting up to 60 % of population with cardiovascular disease. Despite the high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality associated with this syndrome, the substantial inconvenience and cost of polysomnography recordings may delay routine evaluation. Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard for diagnosis. However, this is a costly and time-consuming examination. Sympathoadrenergic balance obtained from the routine Holter monitoring suggesting the presence of OSAS, can enable patients to be guided and their PSGs to be primarily held.Abnormalities in nocturnal cyclical heart rate (HR) variations have previously been described in sleep-related breathing disorders. Compared with PSG, holter electrocardiogram has the advantages of pervasion, lower cost, no need for overnight hospitalization, greater similarity to normal conditions, and good compliance. The observation of changes in heart rate associated with apneic events has a potential to be used as an alternative technique for identification of subjects with OSAS. In regard to the feasibility of screening OSAS by HRV analysis by holter electrocardiogram monitoring, it has already been reported that a 24-h electrocardiographic monitoring might be useful to diagnose OSAS. It became a more feasible technique to use following the development of a convenient recorder for OSAS screening by analyzing changes in heart rate.
The study aims to show the effects of interscalene brachial plexus (ISBP) block on intracranial pressure by measuring optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) and internal vein collapsibility index (IJV-CI).
Pediatric cancer patients and their families experience biopsychosocial difficulties as a result of the long and difficult treatment procedure, which have a severe impact on their quality of life. These difficulties might arise as a result of cancer and its treatment. Fatigue, pain, and an impaired motor skills are all common issues. These issues result in body structure and function deficits, as defined by the International Classification of Functioning-Child and Youth (ICF-CY), and have a negative impact on children's activity and participation levels. Yoga is a form of exercise that incorporates breathing methods, physical postures, and meditation. Yoga appears to relieve fatigue and improve quality of life in pediatric cancer patients, according to preliminary studies. However, no randomized controlled trial has been conducted in this population to determine the effectiveness of yoga. The purpose of this study is to assess children's quality of life, fatigue, pain, motor proficiency, participation, coping, and motivation; also to look at the effects of parents on quality of life, depression, fatigue, and care burden in a randomized controlled study.
