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.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of the newborn's first bath with a cleaning product and only water on the barrier function of the skin.
The ISYQOL questionnaire was translated into Turkish and was assessed the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the ISYQOL in terms of test-retest reliability, internal consistency, and construct validity in this research.
Patients scheduled for elective abdominopelvic laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia were included. Rocuronium was used for the neuromuscular blockade (NMB) and the level of NMB was monitored with train-of-four (TOF) measurements. The participants from whom informed consent had been received were allocated to two groups according to the agent used for reversal of NMB, sugammadex, or neostigmine. The ECG recordings of the subjects were followed with a rhythm Holter device throughout the procedure until the postoperative 12th hour. Additionally, preoperative and immediate postoperative 12-lead ECGs were evaluated for corrected QT calculations and QT dispersion. Proarrhythmogenicity was assessed with QT related measurements. The documented arrhythmic events on the Holter monitoring were designated as clinical end-points.
Lung ultrasonography has been used for diagnosis and treatment in many departments including intensive care before the pandemic. The gold standard method for the diagnosis of pneumonia is still chest tomography. Ultrasonography, which has advantages over tomography, has also been tried to be used in covid 19 pneumonia.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the Boyle-Davis mouth opener, which is routinely used in cleft palate surgery, on intracranial pressure by USG-guided optic nerve sheath diameter measurement, which is a non-invasive method with proven effectiveness and reliability in recent years.
This study aims to identify the nail ultrasonography (NUSG) properties in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and healthy controls by a participant-based evaluation; to assess feasibility, reliability, and discriminative performances; to explore final scorings; and to determine associations between the NUSG scores and participant characteristics, including demographics and disease-related factors.
There is no study investigating the hamstring flexibility and skin temperature after combined warm-up techniques especially PNF and foam rolling. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of foam roller application prior to proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching on hamstring flexibility and thigh skin temperature in healthy subjects.Secondly, it is aimed to compare the effects between non-vibration foam rolling and vibration foam rolling on measured parameters.
Small molecule inhibitors have previously been investigated in different studies as possible therapeutics in the treatment of SARS-CoV-2. In the current drug repurposing study, the investigators identified the leukotriene (D4) receptor antagonist Montelukast as a novel agent that simultaneously targets two important drug targets of SARS-CoV-2. The investigators initially demonstrated the dual inhibition (main protease and Spike/ACE2) profile of Montelukast through multiscale molecular modeling studies. Next, the investigators characterized its effect on both targets by different in vitro experiments including the Fluorescent Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET)-based main protease enzyme inhibition assay, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy, pseudovirus neutralization on HEK293T / hACE2, and virus neutralization assay using xCELLigence MP real time cell analyzer.
The aim of this study is to assess the changes in retinal nerve fiber layer due to SSRI treatment in first-attack major depressive patients.
Anastomotic leakage is serious morbidity that can develop in patients operated on for colorectal cancer and can reach potentially life-threatening dimensions. Many international studies have been conducted to reduce and eliminate this postoperative complication that may have a mortal course. In these studies, preoperative, perioperative and postoperative factors of the patient, operation techniques, structure of the material used in the operation and multiple factors belonging to the surgeon were held responsible. Intraabdominal sepsis secondary to late anastomotic leakage and subsequent multiorgan failure can cost the patient's life. Anastomotic leaks that develop in patients who have been operated for colorectal cancer; In order to detect patients' postoperative clinical findings, laboratory examinations, imaging tests, and to eliminate them before intraabdominal sepsis develops, studies including many different laboratory and imaging methods have been carried out. Although previous studies have shown that there are many laboratory examinations and imaging methods that can predict anastomotic leaks early, they have many advantages over each other in terms of efficiency, sensitivity, specificity, and cost. The investigators aimed to investigate the effectiveness of C reactive protein and blood sodium value, as well as their superiority, among the tests that can predict postoperative anastomotic leakage, especially in patients who have undergone a single anastomosis following resection for non-metastatic colorectal cancer.
