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.
AKI develops frequently in patients hospitalized in the intensive care unit, and the biggest risk factor is sepsis. Creatine, which is traditionally used in the diagnosis of AKI, is affected by many factors, causes the diagnosis to be delayed, and its effect in showing the prognosis is limited. Therefore, there is a need to search for new parameters for early diagnosis and prediction of prognosis. Although many biomarkers studied in blood and urine have been reported in the literature, NGAL has been the most emphasized in terms of both diagnosis and prognosis. Although there are publications on the use of the renal resistive index in the diagnosis in new studies, the place of RRI in the diagnosis has not been determined exactly, and its effect on the prognosis has not been studied. In our study, renal resistive index will be measured by renal ultrasonography at the bedside in patients with sepsis at the time of diagnosis, and NGAL will be studied from the blood of the patients, and their values will be compared in terms of detecting patients with AKI in sepsis and showing prognosis. In summary, if the renal resistive index is superior to serum NGAL and parameters such as creatinine level in showing the diagnosis and prognosis of AKI; Early planning of the patient's treatment with a bedside and non-invasive method will also reduce the cost, considering that ultrasonography is now indispensable for all intensive care units.
Many children may have general disorders such as sleep disorders, lack of appetite, fever, diarrhea, vomiting, coughing and respiratory problems during tooth eruption.These symptoms usually occur in6-36 monthchildren. The emergent symptoms don't affect not only children but also parents try to find solutions to these symptoms. Parents' knowledge level and their way trying finda solution to these symptoms may differ. The aim of this study is to evaluate the perceptions of parents towards the teething signs and symptoms of their children aged 6-36 months-old.As a result of the research, it is aimed to organize educational programs for families by increasing the knowledge level of parents about teething symptoms.
Background: Smoking, which remains one of the biggest public health threats that the world faces and has reached epidemic proportions, continues to cause more than eight million deaths on average per year worldwide. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of motivational interviewing technique on the smoking urge and the success of smoking cessation in teachers. Methods: This was an experimental (randomized controlled) study where motivational interviews were conducted with the individuals in the experimental group. The sample of the study was chosen from the teachers, who met the inclusion criteria, in the secondary schools in the central districts of Manisa. The study was completed with 30 smokers in the experimental group and 31 smokers in the control group. Questionnaire on Smoking Urges, Smoking Cessation Success Prediction Scale and Sociodemographic Data Form were used as data collecting tools. Chi-square test, Mann-Whitney U test, Wilcoxon test, t-test and regression analysis were used to analyse the data.
Aimed to understand if yoga exercises are superior to posture exercises as an alternative exercise therapy for relieving musculoskeletal pain, improving functional status, and improving quality of life during the post- corona virus disease (COVID-19) period?
This is a Phase III, randomised, open-label, 2 arm, multicentre, international study assessing the efficacy and safety of Dato-DXd compared with ICC in participants with locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic TNBC who are not candidates for PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor therapy.
The study design is a single-center 2-arm randomized controlled clinical trial. 10 subjects (teeth) requiring a root canal treatment will be enrolled in 2 groups (5 in each group). The aim of the study is to compare the postoperative pain intensity levels in patients with asymptomatic teeth diagnosed for non-surgical orthograde root canal treatment that are disinfected during the root canal treatment procedure by manual irrigation with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) solution using an endodontic needle or by a inertial cavitation-generating device.
Aims: This study aimed to psychometrically evaluate the Turkish version of the Multiple Sclerosis Intimacy and Sexuality Questionnaire (MSISQ-15) in women with MS. Methods: The study included 130 women with MS. The Turkish linguistic validation process of the original English MSISQ-15 was performed according to standardized guidelines. Reliability analysis was evaluated with test-retest analysis and intra-class correlation (ICC). Internal consistency between the items was analyzed using the Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Item analysis results were used to assess the contribution of the items to the scale. In evaluating the validity of the scale, the relationship between the MSISQ and the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), the Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life Questionnaire-54 (MSQOL-54), and the Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire (PSIQ-12) was investigated. Psychometric properties were analyzed using internal consistency, test-rest reliability, construct validity, and floor-ceiling effect.
The study was planned as a prospective randomized controlled study and was carried out in the Training and Research Hospital burn unit outpatient clinic between 05.7.2021-1.04.2022. The population of the study consisted of the parents of children aged 5-10 years who applied to the burn unit polyclinic for dressing between the dates of the study. A total of 52 people were included in the research group. Data were collected by using the "Survey Form" consisting of 10 questions, "Newcastle Nursing Satisfaction Scale" and "Beck Anxiety Scale".

Patients who are scheduled for laparoscopic hysterectomy will be included in the study. After the operation, those who are well and without major distress will be discharged from the hospital before 24 hours. Those who have pain or have additional health problems will be observed further. Our aim is to compare these two groups in terms of early complications and operation characteristics.
