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.
This is a phase II, open-label study where weekly doses of 80 mg/kg viltolarsen is administered intravenously over a 48-week treatment period to ambulant and non-ambulant DMD patients over the age of 8 years.
This study was planned to determine the effect of hand reflexology on anxiety and vital signs in patients undergoing coronary angiography. In the G-power analysis conducted to determine the sample of the study, experiment and control were calculated as 60 in total, with the sample number of both groups being 30. Since the study is a single-blind randomized clinical trial, in order to determine the randomization , a box with the names of the patients determined according to the participation criteria will be determined by the selection of the healthcare personnel responsible for the service, and the experimental and control groups. "Demographic Data Form" , "Distress Thermometer". "State Anxiety Inventory" , "Vital Signs Form" and Visual Analog Scale will be used to collect research data.
Premenstrual syndrome is an important health problem affecting women of childbearing age. This study is a prospective, single-blinded randomized controlled trial. Participants were randomized into music, and control groups. Immediately post-intervention, the women in the experimental groups had significantly higher reduce premenstraul syndrome levels and increase a quality life.
This study aims to evaluate and compare the inclination of the lower and upper permanent first molars and the transversal width of the lower and upper jaws in individuals of different age groups to evaluate whether the existing anomaly at different ages in individuals with a bilateral posterior crossbite. For this reason, first molar tooth inclination and lower and upper jaw transversal width will be evaluated in adolescent and post-adolescent individuals with a bilateral posterior crossbite.
This study, it was aimed to investigate the relationship between body image, self-stigma, intuitive eating and exercise attitude levels, which are thought to be effective on the mental well-being of overweight and obese individuals. For this purpose, the Body Image Scale, Intuitive Eating Scale-2, Exercise Stages of Change Scale-Short Form and Decisional Balance Scale in Exercise will be used to assess overweight and obese individuals. 100 people will be included in the study.
During COVID-19 pandemic, in the lockdown period, reduced physical activity and obesity were reported in children. In Turkey, face to face education was ceased after March 16, till the end of the previous academic year and education was tried to be substituted remotely. A temporary lockdown was implemented for children and young people under the age of 20, between April 3 and June 5 2020. At 45 days following the lockdown of children, 72% of the parents with children aged 6-13 years stated that their screen time had increased to a mean of 6.4 hours per day. Engaging more time in physical activity, and less in sedentary and leisure screen time was found to be associated with less anxiety during pandemic. Before 2020-2021 academic year, government and educators increased their preparedness for the second and third waves and improved the technological infrastructure. Depending on grades, preferences of the family, primary education continued remotely between November 2020 and July 2021. The aim of this study is to investigate whether musculoskeletal complaints are increased in school-age children during the pandemics and whether there is a relationship between the decreased level of physical activity, increased screen time, poor posture and musculoskeletal complaints.
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a neurodevelopmental dysfunction which is permanent, non-progressive, and caused by brain insult or injury.Although the basic finding of CP is having motor function problems, visual, auditory, cognitive and behavioural problems are also seen in CP.Having these problems interfere the functional independence of children with CP, so their daily life of activities is limited.One of the way of increasing the functional independence of these children is providing them hand rehabilitation.In the event of having hand rehabilitation, children would achieve more daily living skills.Although having hand rehabilitation is crucial for these children, they would lose their motivation on this by the time because rehabilitation is a long process,For that reason, new therapy techniques are tried by therapists to motivate these children during their rehabilitation seances.Virtual reality rehabilitation is one of these new techniques used for designing enjoyable and effective seances.Especially leap motion sensors are preferred to create virtual environment, because they are cheap, portable, touchless and easy to use.These sensors can detect hand movements and recognize hand gestures by using infrared.Our study was aimed to investigate the effect of fine motor grip studies in virtual reality environment on performance based hand skills in children with CP.Thirty two children with CP (6-18) were included in this study.Children were randomly assigned into two equal-sized groups: control and study groups.Participants in both groups received a neurodevelopmental therapy program.The study group additionally received virtual reality rehabilitation programme. In control group, neurodevelopmental treatment was provided 45 mins,2 d/week for 2 successive months.In study group, neurodevelopmental treatment was provided 30 mins and virtual rehabilitation programme was provided 15 mins, 2 d/week for 2 successive months. To evaluate the performance based hand skills; Box and Block Test, Nine Hole Peg Test and Pink Tower (Montessori) Test were used.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, health employees are at high risk of infection. This study aimed to determine experiences with an aerosol box (AB), used with the aim of preventing contamination by droplets during internal jugular vein cannulation which requires close contact with COVID-19 patients, and the necessity to use this device.
Wheelchair users frequently experience shoulder pain. It has been determined that in our country, the subjective assessment methods that will help to determine and monitor shoulder pain severity of wheelchair users are limited. The purpose of this study is to adapt the original English version of the Wheelchair Users Shoulder Pain Index into Turkish and to assess its validity and reliability. Firstly, the original English version of WUSPI was translated into Turkish and culturally adapted, then applied to 100 wheelchair users to investigate the validity of the scale. The reliability of the scale was assessed by internal consistency and test-retest analysis and found a high internal consistency. Validation of WUSPI-Tr was assessed by the concurrent validity method. To establish concurrent validity, WUSPI scores were compared to SPADI and ASES scores by Spearman correlation analysis. There was a positively excellent correlation with SPADI and, negatively excellent correlation with ASES. As a result, it is determined tath the Turkish version of WUSPI-Tr is a valid and reliable tool.
Acute respiratory distress syndrome survivors frequently develop impaired physical function, muscle weakness and quality of life. The aim of this retrospective study is to determine the functional capacity, global muscle weakness and quality of life of COVID-19 survivors after 4 weeks following hospital discharge and the relationship between different tools. COVID-19 related acute respiratory distress syndrome survivors were assessed 4 weeks following discharge from the hospital, 15 patients who attended the evaluation will be included the study. All subjects underwent standardized physical clinical evaluation, Medical Research Council-sumscore, hand-grip strength, 6-minute walk test, chair-stand test, timed up and go test and Short form-36, 4 weeks after hospital discharge.
