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 was to determine the Turkish validity and reliability of Lumbar Spine Surgery Expectations Survey developed by Mancuso.
The aim of the study is to determine the effectiveness of breathing exercises combined with core stabilization exercises in mothers with chronic non-specific low back pain of children with special health care needs.
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Therapeutic Recreation Activities on Aberrant Behavior of Adolescents With Intellectual Disabilities. The research was carried out at Meram Melike Hatun Special Education Vocational School in Konya. The study took place between May 2019 and June 2019. The parents of the participants who participated in the study consisted of the experimental group (n = 16) and the remaining parents (n = 16) formed the control group and the sample group (n = 32). The personal information form which measures demographic characteristics developed by the researchers according to the literature, and The Aberrant Behavior Checklist Scale were used. Data were analyzed in SPSS statistics 23 program. According to Shapiro Wilk test, sample group was not normal. For this reason, non-parametric tests were performed. In descriptive data, the mean, number, percentage will be used; Comparative statistics were made according to the assumptions of non-parametric test (Wilcoxon test, Mann Whitney U test). Therapeutic Recreation Activities was applied as total of 16 sessions, consisting of two sessions per week and each session lasting about 1 hour. The program was implemented by researcher.
ABSTRACT Adolescent pregnancy rates are gradually increasing in the recent decades. As a reason of war nutritional difficulties, language differences and difficulty in applying to the health institution causes lack of prenatal care. As a reason of absence of prenatal care, associated medical complications can occur. 525 adolescent women who gave birth to singletons agreed to participate in this study. Data on maternal demographic and obstetric characteristics as well as neonatal outcomes were analyzed. In conclusion, adolescent pregnancy continues to be an important social problem due to the health support needs. However, the results of our present study are important in terms of showing that the perinatal care is quietly improved in Turkey.
Tension-type headache (TTH) causes a significant negative impact on working and daily life due to the reduction in work productivity and family and social activities causes. There is evidence that manual therapy and exercise reduce nociceptive input from the cervical spine and surrounding muscles, the use of manual therapy in TTH management
Liver transplantation (LT) is a current life-saving procedure performed as an open-abdominal surgery for patients with end-stage liver diseases (ESLD). However, a high risk of post-surgical complications is relevant to major intra-abdominal interventions. In managing post-LT recovery, it is important to consider the extending pre-transplant physical status of ESLD patients concerning an impaired exercise capacity, a prolonged period of deconditioning, fatigue and muscle weakness, which leads to global motor impairment and decreased functional capacity. Sarcopenia and physical deconditioning are known as the hallmark features of ESLD. The quality and the quantity of skeletal muscle mass have been closely correlated with post-transplantation mortality in individuals undergoing LT. In addition to chronic deconditioning or myopathy related to chronic liver failure, post-transplant immunosuppressive medication contributes to increased risk for age-related decline in muscular strength and physical ability. It reportedly persists impaired physical function including reduced muscle strength, which have been consistently associated with impaired quality of life after a liver transplant. Exercise interventions in solid-organ recipients provide improvements in physical function including skeletal muscle strength. The literature has defined many types of exercise-based interventions including aerobic and resistive training or physical activity counselling in improving physical performance tasks, muscle strength and physical domain of quality of life in postoperative liver transplanted adults. Although there are studies in improving muscle performance and functional status, no study conducted in the post-transplant early period and an optimal exercise regimen for post-liver recipients. In the present study, it will be provided a framework for a possible change in practice aiming to improve muscle strength and functionality in liver recipients through a strength training exercise intervention at the early post-transplant period. The purposes of this trial were: 1) to evaluate the feasibility and safety of a strength exercise training program on functional mobility and quality of life of liver transplanted individuals and 2) to initiate physiotherapy protocols in this population. A key component of this approach was that it was individualized, providing one-to-one therapy with tailored progression specific to a person's individual mobility goals.
This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of giredestrant combined with palbociclib compared with letrozole combined with palbociclib in patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2)-negative locally advanced (recurrent or progressed) or metastatic breast cancer.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) profile following multiple subcutaneous (SC) doses of romosozumab in children and adolescents with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI).
Chemotherapy-related fatigue (CRF) is common in patients with breast cancer and it can be seen between 27% and 96% depending on the stage of cancer and treatment method. At the same time, CRF is reported as the most important symptom that reduces the functional capacity of patients with breast cancer and impairs their quality of life. For this reason, there is a need for an intervention that could decrease or prevent of CRF in breast cancer patients. In the literature, it is stated in the evidence-based guidelines that massage, which is one of the non-pharmacological methods, can be effective in CRF management.
A study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fenebrutinib on disability progression in adult participants with Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (PPMS). All eligible participants will be randomized 1:1 to either daily oral fenebrutinib (and placebo) or intravenous (IV) ocrelizumab (and placebo) in a blinded fashion through an interactive voice or web-based response system (IxRS). Approximately 946 participants will be enrolled and will be recruited globally. Participants who discontinue study medication early or discontinue from the study will not be replaced. The Open-Label Extension (OLE) phase is contingent on a positive benefit-risk result in the Primary Analysis of the study.
