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.
Tonsillar tissue is a significant organ for the performing of immune systems in children. The Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER), is an organelle needed for the care of a stable function of the cells. The purpose of the study was to explore the correlation among ER stress and tonsillar tissue disorders and to explain the structure of diseases related to the immune system.
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a non-progressive disturbance in the development of movement and posture that occurs in the prenatal or postnatal period, causing activity limitations. Most children and adolescents with CP experience limitations in their walking skills. Restrictions in the walking ability of children with CP are an important issue for both parents and healthcare professionals involved in their treatment. The evaluation of walking is of great importance in terms of determining the effectiveness of the physiotherapy program, shaping the program, planning orthopedic and surgical applications, and determining the effectiveness, especially in children with CP who have walking potential. In the literature, easy-to-use, valid and reliable observational gait analysis that can evaluate gait pathologies and clinical gait in children with CP are emphasized. These measurements are of great importance in clinical practice.The ability of backward walking gives the child a different task than normal, allowing the observation of body perception, trunk stability provided by anterior-posterior co-contractions, balance, correction and protective reactions.
Background: Haptic systems represent the highest level of computer based education technologies and enable students to learn at the highest level. These applications increase the student's focus as well as making the education non-monotonous and insuring teaching permanent by ensuring the active participation of the student. Objective: The study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of using haptic technology in teaching urinary catheter application skill on the level of success and satisfaction about this skill.
This is a pivotal phase III study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, and efficacy of inclisiran in adolescents with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) and elevated low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).
For nearly half a century, supraglottic airway devices (SGA) have been used in pediatric patients, which are more practical than face masks, facilitate oxygenation and ventilation without the need for endotracheal intubation, and less invasive than endotracheal tubes. I-Gel is a supraglottic airway management device introduced in 2007, made of a medical grade thermoplastic elastomer, designed to create a non-inflatable, anatomical seal in the pharyngeal, laryngeal and perilaryngeal structures that prevents compression trauma. Recently, the use of I-Gel has become popular in children undergoing surgery that does not require muscle relaxation. It is important to place an I-Gel in the most appropriate position in order to provide adequate ventilation and prevent complications such as mucosal injury, glottic ptosis, and gastric insufflation with potential aspiration. Successful placement is usually clinically assessed by a capnogram with endtidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) value, visual examination and auscultation with appropriate chest elevation, absence of oropharyngeal leakage at 20 cm H2O peak inspiratory pressure. Although Fiberoptic Bronchoscope (FOB) is accepted as the preferred verification tool for direct visualization, some studies on I-Gel position using FOB reported that I-Gel placement should be repositioned in some children (12.8-49%). Ultrasonography (USG), which has recently entered the practice of upper airway examination, has become a valuable, non-invasive, simple and portable technology for evaluating airway management even in upper airway anatomy impaired by pathology or trauma. The aim of this study is to compare the use of USG with the FOB to evaluate I-Gel placement in pediatric patients. The primary endpoint is to compare the incidence of for I-Gel malposition between USG and FOB. Secondary endpoints are to find the correlation between I-Gel's USG and FOB-detected malposition and to determine the diagnostic performance of the USG.
The aim of this study was to determine the subcutaneous connective tissue reactions to these new materials. Materials and Methods These materials were placed in polyethylene tubes and implanted into the dorsal connective tissue of Sprague Dawley rats. The presence of inflammation, edema, necrosis, dystrophic calcification, and thickness of fibrous capsule formation was recorded by histological examination 7, 30, and 60 days after the implantation procedure. Inflammation scores were defined as follows: 0 = no or few inflammatory cells, no reaction, 1 = <25 cells, mild reaction; 2 = 25 to 125 cells, moderate reaction; and 3 = ≥125 cells, severe reaction. Fibrous capsule thickness, necrosis, and formation of calcification were recorded.
It is planned to investigate whether obesity affects the recovery profile after anesthesia in pediatric patients. To evaluate recovery profile, time to spontaneous ventilation (the time between anesthetic discontinuation and beginning of spontaneous ventilation), LMA removal time (the time between anesthetic discontinuation and LMA removal), open eyes (the time between anesthetic discontinuation and eye opening in response to verbal stimulus or painful pinching), and PACU discharge will be also noted.
A single dose of Reference product containing 200 mg favipiravir and a single dose of Test product containing 200 mg favipiravir or vice versa; administered with 240 mL of water at room temperature, in each period under fasting conditions with current pandemic precautions.
A mechanical horse-riding simulator (MHRS) is a robotic device with a dynamic saddle that mimics the movement of a horse for purpose of hippotherapy. By simulating the rhythmic movements of the horse MHRS aims to increase the patient's balance, flexibility and adaptation and to provide postural adjustment. MHRS is supposed to produce walking patterns of a horse in a three-dimensional aspect. Movements in rhythmic repetitions improve postural coordination, allow to produce a reciprocal pattern. By simulating the rhythmic movements of a horse, MHRS aims to increase the patient's balance, flexibility and adaptation and to provide postural adjustment. This study aims to research the potential benefits of the mechanical horseback riding simulator on the postural balance and symptoms of multiple sclerosis patients.
This study is carried out to evaluate and compare the efficiency of acupressure practice applied with pressure or sea-band and their placebo on managing the acute nausea-vomiting symptoms developing due to chemotherapy in pediatric oncology patients.
