Filter by:Effect of Subtle Energy Transmission and Tao Calligraphy Mindfulness Practice on Telomere Length in Peripheral Blood Leukocytes A Follow-up Pilot Study The goal of this Pilot clinical trial is to learn if a Subtle Energy Transmission and Tao Calligraphy Mindfulness Practice works to increase Telomere Length in Peripheral Blood Leukocytes in adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does A Subtle energy transmission and Tao Calligraphy Mindfulness increase Telomere Length in Peripheral Blood Leukocytes in adults? - Will this increase of Telomere Length in Peripheral Blood Leukocytes in adults be statistically significant? Researchers will compare the length of Telomere in peripheral blood Leukocytes at beginning of the mindfulness practices to the length of Telomere in peripheral blood Leukocytes at 3 months and at 9 months of regular daily practices. Participants will: - Receive a transmission of Subtle energy at beginning of practices - Visit the Laboratory for a blood sample taken at beginning, at 3 months and at 9 months of practices. - Fill the Study Questionnaires at beginning, at 3 months and at 9 months of practices. - Practice the Mindfulness with Tao Calligraphy daily 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour in the evening.
Purpose: It was planned to determine the effect of oral whey given before total hip arthroplasty (THA) on postoperative insulin resistance, cortisol, CRP((C reactive protein), albumin level and healing quality. Design: It was planned as Randomized Controlled. Method: Research: The study is planned to include individuals aged 50-70, who are planned for THA in the orthopedics and traumatology clinic of a public hospital, who have undergone spinal anesthesia, who have BMI <40 and ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists)1,2,3. Individuals with endocrine or renal disorders or allergies to whey will be excluded from the study. It was planned to include at least 60 patients in the study (30 in the intervention group, 30 in the control group). It is planned to use the Patient Introduction Information Form, Physiological Measurements Chart (vital findings (blood pressure, pulse, respiratory SpO2 (pulse oximetry) value), blood glucose, cortisol, CRP and albumin value and insulin resistance) and postoperative recovery quality scale in data collection. The intervention group will be given 600 ml of oral whey 6 hours before the surgery, and the control group will be allowed to drink 600 ml of drinking water 6 hours before the surgery. 3ml of blood will be taken for blood glucose, CRP, cortisol, albumin and insulin resistance values 24 hours before the surgery, just before entering the surgery and 24 hours after the surgery. The first part of the healing quality scale is planned to be evaluated immediately before the surgery, and the second part 24 hours after the surgery. Conclusion: When the literature was scanned, it was seen that the number of studies examining the effect of oral whey on metabolic and endocrine values in orthopedic patients was very limited and academic studies were needed. In this context, examining the effect of whey intake given before THA on the patient's blood glucose, CRP, albumin, cortisol, insulin resistance and healing quality is an original research that will contribute to the field.
The aim is to long-term evaluate extraction or restoration therapy, of first permanent molars with extensive treatment needs as a result of severe MIH in a national multicenter study concerning dental fear and anxiety, oral health-related quality of life, jaw development, and health economics.
This study will compare the quality of life between 2 groups, which are group that receive standard moderate acne therapy in addition of lesion extractions, and the second group which only receive standard moderate acne therapy without lesion extractions.
The research will be carried out as a randomized controlled experimental study to examine the effect of a nursing support program supported by a Web-based education program on the management of fatigue symptoms of patients who are under treatment and care in the Multiple Sclerosis clinic of a university hospital.Patients will receive 5 weeks of standard care. At the end of 5 weeks, they will enter a training program. After this online training program, which will be 5 weeks and 2 sessions per week, the change in the patients' fatigue, sleep quality and quality of life will be analyzed.
The study aimed to investigate the effect of breathing exercises in addition to conventional treatment on pain, normal joint movement and quality of life in patients with frozen shoulder. A simple random number table will randomly divide participants into two groups. The study group (20 participants) will be given 15 sessions of respiratory exercises in addition to the 15 sessions of physiotherapy provided routinely for treatment. The control group (20 participants) will receive 15 sessions of physiotherapy services in addition to the routine 15 sessions of the physiotherapy department.
Geriatric problems develop with aging in individuals over 60 years of age. These problems include muscle weakness, balance disorders and changes in quality of life. The aim of our study is to examine the effects of BAPNE (BMe) and qi gong (QG) exercises on balance and quality of life in individuals over the age of 60. In this study, parameters such as fall risk, muscle testing, balance, functional capacity, cognitive functions, depression and sleep quality were evaluated. 56 participants were included in the study. All cases were evaluated for the first time before they were included in the study. In the initial evaluation, Itaki fall risk questionnaire, 6-minute walk test, Berg balance scale, Pittsburg sleep quality index, World Health Organization quality of life scale elderly module, Beck depression scale, mini mental state test, object flipping test, word fluency test, stroop test, muscle strength with Jtech brand myometer and balance on Libra balance board were measured. Participants were divided into groups of 2-6 people, and second assessments were made after a total of 20 sessions of BMe exercises for 6 weeks. After a 2-week rest period, the participants were included in the third assessment and included a total of 20 sessions of QG exercise over 6 weeks. At the end of 6 weeks, the fourth evaluation was made.
The Aim of this independent, parallel, twelve-week clinical study is to assess the efficacy of a commercially available oxygenated mouth rinse and mouth foam on both plaque level and gingival status in addition to assessing the oral health related quality of life.
A cost-utility analysis based on an earlier published RCT comparing surgery with volar locking plate to non-operative treatment for the elderly with a displaced distal radius fracture.
Covid-19 is a disease where both clinical experience and thus knowledge about the long-term effects of the disease are currently sparse. However, current follow-up results indicate a more pronounced cognitive and respiratory impairment than previously seen in a normal ICU population. As we know that the prevalence of impairments in neurocognitive and Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) is increased in a majority of ICU patients, it would be of benefit to gain knowledge about the impact on the recovery trajectory for patients treated for Covid-19, and to increase the understanding of which factors that affect the HRQoL and recovery and in what way these differs between patients treated in ICU for Covid-19 and other causes respectively. This can contribute to better structures for follow-up and possibility to individualisation that better address which patients are in risk for decreased HRQoL and where benefit for the patient, health care and social economic can be achieved.
