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.
Little is known about the potential effects of exercise on the underlying disease mechanisms in multiple sclerosis (MS). Although contactin-1 and contactin-2 are known as two proteins involved in axonal regeneration, it is unclear whether these proteins are induced by exercise in persons with MS (PwMS). The aim of this study was to determine the serum levels of contactin-1 and contactin-2 in PwMS and to investigate the change of these markers with exercise. Although contactin-1 and contactin-2 are known as two proteins involved in axonal regeneration, the mechanism of action of these proteins in MS patients has not been fully elucidated in the literature. The investigators' aim was to determine the serum levels of contactin-1 and contactin-2 in a group of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) patients and to evaluate the change of these markers with exercise. Thus, the investigators think that a valuable contribution will be made to the literature to shed light on the role of biomarkers in the mechanism mediating the beneficial effects of exercise in MS. In addition, as far as the investigators know, this study is the first to investigate the effect of exercise on contactin-1 and contactin-2 serum levels in MS patients.
There are many studies in the literature on healthy children with lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD), but there are limited number of studies in children with cerebral palsy (CP) with LUTD. This study aim to contribute to the literature by examining the effectiveness of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and abdominal massage in the treatment of children with CP with LUTD and comparing the superiority of the two treatment methods to each other.
Planned for the purpose to evaluate, breast problems (nipple fissure, nipple pain), breastfeeding self-efficacy, breastfeeding success, and infant feeding attitude of mothers by given breastfeeding education with a laid back (semi-sitting or semi-lying) and upright position (sitting upright) using lactation simulation model.
Atrial fibrillation is a common cardiac arrhythmia affecting 1-2% of the population. This rate is expected to increase in the next 30 years. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of acupressure applied to patients with chronic atrial fibrillation on blood pressure and heart rate. This study was designed as a randomized, placebo-controlled experimental study. As a result of the power analysis, 3 groups were formed, each consisting of 23 subjects. No procedure was applied to the control group before and after the measurements. In patients in the placebo group, an inverted and loose acupressure wristband was attached to the Shenman point to avoid applying pressure to any part of the wrist. Acupressure wristbands were applied towards the Shenmen point to provide adequate pressure to the patients in the intervention group and acupressure was applied twice a day. Acupressure was applied 4 times in two days.
A randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, 2-arm multicenter phase 3 study to assess the efficacy and safety of ianalumab in patients with active Sjogren's syndrome (NEPTUNUS-1)
The aim of this study is to evaluate tanatophobia and rumination in individuals over 65 years of age receiving cancer chemotherapy and to determine the related factors.
Losartan is an antihypertensive drug belonging to the ARB family. It is characterized as the substrate of the Multi Drug Resistance-1 (MDR1) drug-efflux protein (a pump that ensures the removal of drugs/foreign substances out of the cell) encoded by the ATP Binding Cassette Subfamily B Member 1 (ABCB1) gene. A recent line of evidence indicates that potential polymorphisms in this gene tend to alter the absorption, transport, bioavailability of losartan, and, indirectly, its effectiveness in hypertension control. As identified by new research, the C3435T, G2677T, and C1236T polymorphic alleles of the MDR1 gene might alter the bioavailability and thus the effectiveness of losartan
Background: This study was carried out to determine the effect of physical activity program applied to individuals with heart failure on quality of life, functional capacity and mortality risk level. Objective: The study, which was conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study, was completed with a total of 40 HF patients, 20 of whom were interventions and 20 were controls. A physical activity program lasting at least 30 minutes each session was applied to HF patients in the intervention group, three days a week for three months, and the walks of the patients were followed by a pedometer.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of action observation therapy applied using two different telerehabilitation techniques (synchronous and asynchronous) to children with hemiparetic cerebral palsy.
The aim of this study will be to determine the effect of the sexual health education and counseling program, which is given to women in the postpartum period based on the Ex-PLISSIT model, on women's sexual life, including sexual function, sexual distress and sexual life quality.
