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.
Sleep disorders are important to place among the symptoms frequently seen in hemodialysis patients. Among sleep disorders, restless legs syndrome is the most common. Restless legs syndrome, seen in patients receiving hemodialysis treatment, causes excessive daytime sleepiness and negatively affects the sleep quality of individuals.
The Motor Activity Log was developed to measure paretic upper extremity use in daily activities in the real-life context (real world) of people with different health conditions, including stroke. Subsequently, the Lower Extremity Motor Activity Diary was developed. This survey is a semi-structured survey in which the participant is asked to rate himself/herself according to each scale over 14 activities.
It is aimed in this study to compare the effect of using local anaesthetics in a higher volume and lower dose on the total anesthetic consumption and quality of labor analgesia with dural puncture epidural technique.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a high-prevalence, preventable and treatable disease characterized by abnormal respiratory symptoms and airway obstruction, often resulting from exposure to hazardous substances due to airway and/or alveolar abnormalities. The disease is an important problem with high morbidity and mortality rates all over the world and in our country. COPD is known as the third disease with a high mortality rate and the sixth disabling disease worldwide. The Global Burden of Disease Study reports 251 million cases of COPD worldwide in 2016. According to World Health Organization (WHO) data, it is estimated that 3.17 million deaths were caused by COPD in 2015. This number constitutes 5% of all deaths. More than 90% of these deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries.It has become common to use medicinal plants together with medical antiviral treatments to reduce the negative effects of COPD. Pulmonary elimination of thymol has been reported to have beneficial effects on respiratory diseases. Our research is the first to investigate in detail the effects of thyme oil on the symptoms and hemodynamic parameters of COPD. The widespread use of the thyme plant among patients shows that the research is important because it is an easily accessible, cheap and reliable essential oil.
The aim of the study is to examine the effect of motor control exercises given through telerehabilitation on shoulder function and quality of life in patients undergoing rotator cuff surgery.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of lymphatic drainage massage on interdialytic weight gain and fatigue in patients undergoing hemodialysis.
Nonspecific low back pain is defined as low back pain that cannot be associated with a specific identified pathology. Many methods such as patient education, medical treatment, physical modalities, exercise, manual therapy, massage, traction and cognitive behavioral therapy are used in the treatment of nonspecific low back pain. Spinal stabilization exercises, which are among the therapeutic exercises, aim to improve and improve muscle control to compensate for any loss of muscle movement caused by degenerative changes or injury. Perturbation training, which is among the neuromuscular exercises, is an intervention that aims to improve the control of rapid balance reactions and involves repetitive postural distortions. In perturbation training, the surface is moved in multiple directions with different forces and moments. The aim of this exercise is to develop the stabilization response that will be created by stresses applied from different directions. It is believed that the number of motor units participating in contraction and proprioceptive input will increase with perturbation exercise. Although the number of studies on low back pain is quite limited, it has been stated that applications that provide perturbation can reduce the incidence of low back pain and provide improvement in neuromuscular control of spinal stability. In the light of these data, the aim of this study is to investigate the effects of perturbation training given in addition to the exercise program on trunk muscle endurance, pain, disability, functionality, fear avoidance beliefs and quality of life parameters in individuals with nonspecific low back pain.
Restless legs syndrome is a symptom that can be seen in all stages of a woman's life, but its frequency and severity increases with menopause. Restless legs syndrome is a neurological problem that occurs usually at night with an irresistible urge to move the legs. It is a progressive muscle relaxation exercise. Progressive muscle relaxation exercise is a systematic practice aimed at providing deep relaxation by exercising large muscle groups in the body along with breathing techniques. This study aims to evaluate the effect of progressive muscle relaxation exercise on the severity of restless legs syndrome, quality of life and sleep quality related to restless legs syndrome in menopausal women with restless legs syndrome.
Women's psycho-social health during pregnancy could influence the course of pregnancy, psychological and emotional life, not only in labor but also during the postpartum period. Women's perception of birth and their self-efficacy may affect the birth and postpartum period, and their delivery preference. The study aims to examine the effect of solution-oriented approach training on traumatic birth perception, vaginal birth selfefficacy, and delivery preference. It was designed in a randomized controlled experimental type. The sample in the study will comprise 80 pregnant women (40 experimental and 40 control groups) with the help of power analysis. The study is going to be conducted with pregnant women applying to KTU Farabi Hospital between May and December 2022. 6-8 sessions of solution-oriented approach training will be given to pregnant women with 28 weeks of gestation and above and willing to take part in the study, and their delivery preferences will be examined, afterward. The pregnant women in the control group, on the other hand, will not be subjected to any training or interview other than routine pregnancy follow-ups. Data will be gathered through the Pregnant introductory information form, traumatic birth perception scale form, and vaginal birth self-efficacy form. Ethics Committee Permission, institutional permission from the institution where the research will be conducted, and written informed consent from the mothers will be obtained before the research. The data will be statistically evaluated through the SPSS 23 program. Student t-test or Mann-Whitney U tests will be applied for two independent groups. One A Way or Kruskal-Wallis tests will be applied for three or more independent groups, depending on whether the data meet the parametric conditions. Paired T or Wilcoxon tests will be used for two dependent groups, and Friedman or Repeat Measure tests will be applied for three or more groups. In statistical evaluation, p<0.05 will be considered significant.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of color therapy on quality of life, anxiety and fatigue levels in patients with Parkinson's disease.
