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.
Aim: In this study, the types of home-based exercise programs prepared for patients receiving physiotherapy services in different rehabilitation institutions; It is aimed to examine the applicability and effectiveness advantages according to disease status, age, gender, socioeconomic level, education level, confidence in the home program, and functional independence level. Study type: observational study Research question; To what extent do patients participate in home-based exercise programs?
Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is a battery used for injury prediction, identifying asymmetry and weak connections in basic functional movement patterns. The muscles assessed in FMS are also respiratory muscles. Therefore, FMS scores were thought to be related to respiratory muscle strength. The aim of our study was to examine the relationship between Functional Movement Screen and respiratory muscles strength in professional football players and sedentary individuals.
Cervical spine problems are associated with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and related muscles.The aim of the present study was to investigate temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD) and pain in individuals with cervical disc herniation (CDH) according to the level of neck disability.
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients have been found to exhibit cortical asymmetry. This study aimed to examine the impact of conservative treatments on perceptual and cognitive asymmetry in the auditory system assessed by dichotic listening in AIS patients with thoracic major curves.
This study aimed to provide a recipe resource with visuals in line with the low-residue diet recommendations given to patients before colonoscopy, including cooking instructions for the meals in the diet list. In this way, we aimed to minimize confusion regarding dietary restrictions during colonoscopy preparation and ensure full compliance with the diet list. Our hypothesis is that this approach may enhance compliance with current recommendations and improve the quality of bowel preparation.
There are several studies examining the effects of different sensory stimuli on balance in healthy young people. Our study will especially explain how the same environment will affect postural control, when projected into VR environment. In this way, we aim to contribute to the literature and virtual reality programs used in rehabilitation.
Objective: In this study, it was aimed to determine the effect of time-restricted feeding on anthropometric measurements and leptin, ghrelin, adiponectin, insulin and cortisol hormone levels in obese women. Material and Methods: This study was carried out with women who voluntarily accepted to participate in the study who applied to the Baskent University Ankara Hospital Endocrinonogy Outpatient Clinic between September 2019 and October 2020. Women between the ages of 20 and 50, with a body mass index of 29-35 kg/m2, without any chronic disease, who did not have a weight loss diet in the last 6 months, and who had regular night sleep were included in the study. This study was planned as a randomized cross-over design for a total of 9 weeks. Two different dietary interventions, "time-restricted feeding" and "extended-time feeding", were applied to 4 weeks for each group and a week for wash-out period. Anthropometric measurements and hormone levels of individuals were evaluated at the beginning and end of the study.
To evaluate the acute effect of MLD on pressure pain threshold (PPT), pain tolerance, tactile sensation, and muscle strength in healthy young adults. healthy young adults were included in the study. Before and after MLD and plasebo touchs, the same physiotherapist performed PPT and pain tolerance measurements, muscle strength measurements with a hand dynamometer (Jamar®) and pinchmeter (Baseline®), and two-point discrimination (2PD) evaluation with an esthesiometer.
This study aimed to determine the distribution of pain sensitivity according to body segments in patients with central sensitization associated with chronic subacromial pain syndrome (SPS).This cross-sectional study included patients with chronic SPS and central sensitization (patient group) and the same number of healthy participants as controls. The presence of central sensitization was determined using the Central Sensitization Inventory. To determine the segmental distribution of pain sensitivity, pressure pain threshold measurements were performed bilaterally from the shoulder, forearm, and leg.
This prospective randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted between March 2022 and May 2022 and included 60 patients who underwent elective cesarean. The participants were randomized into two groups: abdominal irrigation (n=30) and control group (n=30). Participants undergo a standard cesarean procedure, and general anesthesia was preferred. The patients were questioned regarding nausea, vomiting, highest pain scores, time of flatus, and stool passage during the postoperative period.
