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.
Classical ballet dance has just used therapeutically in recent years and can be a good recreational activity option at occupational therapy. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether participation in classical ballet dance activity for at least 3 months is associated with psychological distress, depression, anxiety, and well-being.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of lenvatinib (MK-7902/E7080) in combination with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in participants with metastatic colorectal cancer. The study will also compare lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab with the standard of care treatment of regorafenib and TAS-102 (trifluridine and tipiracil hydrochloride). The primary study hypothesis is that lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab is superior to standard of care with respect to overall survival.

In the normal development stage, children become ill for various reasons and maybe hospitalised. Illnesses and hospitalization are major sources of stress for any growing child. In addition to being admitted to the hospital, unknown environment, unknown people in this environment, unknown equipment, scary voices, thought of physical harm, fears such as separation from the family, etc. Different degrees of stress occur for reasons. In addition to these, children face many problems related to physical limitations caused by hospitalization due to illness, and they experience negative emotions such as anxiety, fear, and anxiety. On the day the child is admitted to the hospital, the child and his family experience high levels of anxiety. Children's anxiety and fear may negatively affect their ability to understand the explanations to be made correctly, to interpret events realistically, to make appropriate decisions, and to participate in care. Various treatment methods such as therapeutic games, art therapy, drawing, occupational therapy, animal-assisted practices/activities (HDU) are applied in the hospital environment to improve the child's coping skills and to reduce negative emotions such as pain, anxiety, stress, and fear. The animal-assisted practice is activities that offer various opportunities to improve the quality of life and provide entertainment and therapeutic benefits. Although the use of animal-assisted applications is widespread abroad, its use in our country and the rate of reflection on the results of the study is quite limited. In the researches, interaction with such animals; has been determined to be psychologically, emotionally, socially, and physically supportive in children. It is planned to use goldfish in this study. Aquarium fish is one of the ornamental fish sold in more than 125 countries and more than 2500 species globally. No study has been conducted on the effects of aquarium fish, which are reported to have positive effects and provide calming when applied with adult age groups within the scope of animal-assisted practices, on anxiety, fear, psychological and emotional well-being in children treated in a clinical setting. This study will be conducted to examine the effects of animal-assisted practice on anxiety, fear, the psychological and emotional well-being of children hospitalised.
There are limited studies examining kinesiophobia and factors associated with kinesophobia in patients with lower limb amputation. The aim of this study is to illustrate the level of kinesiophobia in patients with traumatic lower extremity amputation and to analyze the correlation between kinesiophobia and associated factors (pain, prosthesis satisfaction, fear of fall, quality of life). This cross-sectional study will involve 52 patients with traumatic lower extremity amputation. Kinesiophobia level will be measured with the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK). All patients will point the severity of sound limb pain, residual limb pain, low back pain and the overall prosthesis, socket system and prosthetic foot satisfaction on a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Falls Efficacy Scale-International (FES-I) will be used for evaluation of falls efficacy under different circumstances. The quality of life (QoL) will be assessed with Nottingham Health Profile (NHP).
This study aims to compare the volume management methods performed by using conventional method and PVI monitoring in intraoperative fluid treatment during bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and total hysterectomy operation.
Spasticity is a positive sign of upper motor neuron syndrome. The frequency of spasticity development in patients with stroke is 38%. Spasticity is one of the important factors that negatively affect the rehabilitation potential and functional recovery of the patient. In the treatment of spasticity, oral antispasticide drugs, phenol, ethyl alcohol, botulinum toxin, and chemical nerve and motor point blocks, physical therapy, and rehabilitation, surgical methods are used. In the physical therapy rehabilitation program of spasticity, stretching and strengthening exercises, cold application, warm application, ultrasound therapy, electrical stimulation, biofeedback, extracorporeal shock therapy are used. Stretching exercises are the cornerstone of spasticity treatment. In many clinical and experimental studies, a decrease in spasticity has been noted after stretching exercises. It has been stated that the application of cold or hot applications before stretching may increase the effectiveness of spasticity treatment. The study comparing the effectiveness of hot and cold treatment applied before stretching exercises clinically and ultrasonographically has not been found in the literature. The purpose of this study is the evaluation of clinical and ultrasonographic comparison of the effect of hot and cold treatment on spasticity before stretching exercises in patients with stroke. This study is unique because it is the first study that evaluates the effect of hot and cold applications on spasticity before the stretching.
In order for the diagnosis of digestive system tumors and their appropriate treatment afterward, the type of these tumors should be determined by the pathologist. Pathology doctors need sufficient tissue (a small part of the organ thought to be diseased) to make a diagnosis. Tissue samples were taken from the patients by biopsy procedure. It is examined with microscopes by performing various staining and occasionally it is reported that sufficient tissue cannot be provided to make a diagnosis. In this case, patients may be subjected to repeated biopsy procedures. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the biopsy material obtained by endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is sufficient for the diagnosis of the pathology physician with the naked eye. Researchers will try to determine to what extent the physician performing the biopsy procedure can predict whether the tissue he has obtained is sufficient for the pathologist. In this way, researchers think that fewer biopsy repetitions will be needed in the future.
Abstract Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a video-assisted discharge education program on activities of daily living, functionality, and patient satisfaction after total hip replacement (THR) surgery. Methods: This study included 31 participants who were randomly divided in the physiotherapy (PT) group (n=18), and the video-assisted discharge education (VADE) group (n=13). Both groups received a physiotherapy program. VADE group was additionally received VADE program. In both groups, all education programs were given face to face. Data were collecting using visual analog scale (VAS), Harris Hip Score (HHS), Nottingham Extended Activities of Daily Living Scale (NEADL), Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK) and Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire at 1st week and 3rd month. Practice Implications: The current study has contributed to the development of video-assisted health technologies.
Study to determine the safety and tolerability profile of durvalumab with platinum (cisplatin or carboplatin) plus etoposide (EP) as first-line treatment in participants with extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer.
