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.
Our aim in the study is; Comparison of blood flow restrictive exercises and isokinetic exercises in female football players. 30 female football players between the ages of 18-30 who came to DOIT Health & Sports clinic to receive rehabilitation will be included in the study. Participants will be randomized into 2 groups. Resistant exercise with blood flow restrictive exercise (BFR-RE) will be applied to one group, and resistant exercise with isokinetic device (ID-RE) will be applied to the other group. An 8-week exercise protocol will be created for both groups and exercise training will be given twice a week. Demographic data form, Kineo Intelligent Load Isokinetic Device to measure muscle strength, tape measure to measure circumference, universal goniometer for joint range of motion, Illinois Agility Test for agility and quality of life; World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale-Short Form Turkish Version will be administered before exercise, at the 4th week and at the 8th week. The effectiveness of the applications for female football players and their advantages over each other will be examined. The 4-week and 8-week effects of 2 types of exercise will be examined.
It is to examine the effect of virtual reality and ice application on the pain level due to femoral sheath extraction.
Together with individual predisposition to form vascular clots and clinical conditions that further increase this risk, venous thromboembolism (VTE) poses a significant additional morbidity and mortality risk for the majority of the world's population. Although VTE causes serious disability and death when undiagnosed, it is a medical condition that can be prevented when diagnosed early. Although all hospitalized patients are at risk of DVT, studies have shown that 75% of hospitalized patients are hospitalized in internal clinics.As a result of this observational study, it was aimed to determine the VTE risk levels of the patients from the time of hospitalization and to determine preventive nursing care for VTE.
Background: Rapid developments in the field of artificial intelligence have begun to necessitate changes and transformations in nursing education. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of an artificial intelligence-supported case created in the in-class case analysis lecture for nursing students on students' case management performance and satisfaction. Design: This study was a randomized controlled trial. Method: The study involved 188 third-year nursing students who were randomly assigned to either the AI group (n=94) and control group (n=94). An information form, case evaluation form, knowledge test, and Mentimeter application were used to assess the students' case management performance and nursing diagnoses. The level of satisfaction with the case analysis lecture was evaluated using the VAS scale.
It is aimed to compare dental plaque area measured on images obtained in the clinic by using dental photography and intraoral scanner and to evaluate the correlation of this area with clinical plaque scores. Clinical dental plaque scoring was measured according to the "Turesky Modified Quigley Hein Plaque Index" after applying a plaque staining agent (Tri Plaque ID Gel, GC Corp., Tokyo, Japan) to evaluate the oral hygiene of 20 patients who applied to the university clinic. Following clinical scoring, intraoral photographs of the patients were taken using dental photography equipment of the same standards (EOS700D, Canon; 100mm lens, Canon; twin flash, Yong Nuo) and scan images were taken with an intraoral scanner (iTero Element Flex, Align Tech., USA). In the data obtained, dental plaque area on the buccal surface of 66 lower and upper jaw anterior teeth were measured with Image J (National Institute for Health, Bethesda, USA) software, and the ratio of dental plaque area to the visible surface area of the tooth was measured.
The aim of this study was to examine the association between metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) in participants who had undergone cholecystectomy and those who had not undergone cholecystectomy. MAFLD is defined as hepatic steatosis(with ultrasonography) entity in addition to the presence of overweight or obesity, diabetes mellitus, or evidence of metabolic dysfunction. In this way, the long-term effects of cholecystectomy surgeries, which are commonly performed in the society and thought to be harmless, will be evaluated.
Intrinsic apoptosis pathway plays a critical role in the host immune defense and inflammation and its dysregulation is involved in various chronic diseases. Bcl-2 protein family primarly mediates this mitochondrial pathway. This study aimed to investigate the pro-apoptotic Bax and anti-apoptotic Bcl-xl levels and their association with interleukin-22 (IL-22) and transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of patients with periodontitis. In total 75 systemically healthy and non-smoker individuals consisting of stage III periodontitis (n=23), gingivitis (n=26), periodontally healthy (n=26) were enrolled. Whole-mouth clinical periodontal measurements were recorded. Bax, Bcl-xl, IL-22 and TGF-β1 levels in GCF were determined by ELISA. Data were analyzed using non-parametric statistical tests.
This study aimed to asses predictive factors associated with successful cervical cerclage and poor pregnancy outcomes in all indications.129 pregnant women who underwent cerclage at 12-25 weeks gestation in a perinatal medical center were included. The patients were divided into three subgroups for data analysis. Groups included patients with respectively history-indicated cerclage (group 1), ultrasound-indicated cerclage (group 2), and rescue cerclage (group 3). The investigators defined successful cerclage as postponing birth until after the 28th week of gestation and a 'good outcome' was defined as delivery beyond 34 completed weeks.Factors associated with successful cervical cerclage and perinatal outcomes after the procedure for all three groups were analyzed. The investigators also calculated post-cerclage the cervical length cut-off value required to predict if birth could be postponed until after the 28th week of gestation in women with cervical insufficiency.
Purpose: This research was conducted to determine the effect of breathing exercise and affirmation method used in labor on women's birth self-efficacy and satisfaction. Materials and Methods: The sample of the study, in which the randomized controlled experimental design type was applied, consisted of 128 nulliparous pregnant women. Data were collected with Pregnant Descriptive Information Form, Innate Period Evaluation Form, Visual Analog Scale, Affirmation Statement Evaluation Form, Short Form of the Childbirth of Self-Efficacy Inventory and Birth Satisfaction Scale. Pregnant women who are in the first stage of labor have been using diaphragmatic breathing exercise to one group, affirmation method to one group, both diaphragmatic exercise and affirmation method to one group since the active phase, while pregnant women in the control group have not been given any intervention, they have received routine care. Descriptive statistical methods, chi-square test, one-way analysis of variance, t-test for dependent and independent groups were used in the analysis of the data.
