Filter by:The knee pain status of the patients who are followed in the rheumatology special branch of the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Outpatient Clinic and who meet the inclusion criteria will be questioned. In patients with or without knee pain, the cartilage thickness measurement of the knee joint will be measured from 3 points by ultrasound. At the same time, Quadriceps and Hamstring muscle thickness measurements of the patients will be made from the midpoints where the muscle thickness is the highest. The physician who performed the ultrasonographic measurements of the knee pain status of the patients does not know.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a disease characterized by autoimmune systemic inflammatory polyarthritis, particularly affecting the joints of the hands. In addition to joint findings, extra-articular symptoms such as muscle pain, fatigue, fever and malaise are also common. Fatigue is characterized by a feeling of extreme tiredness and persistent exhaustion. The prevalence of fatigue is between 14% and 15% in healthy adults. Although fatigue is common in patients with RA, it may remain in the background in clinical evaluation. The etiology of fatigue in RA is related to inflammation, pain, psychosocial factors and sleep disturbance, it has not been fully explained.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential therapeutic effects of the secondary bile acid ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) on synovial inflammation and disease activity when administered as add-on treatments to the current DMARDs treatment for rheumatoid arthritis patients with variant disease activity.
The goal of this case control observational study is to asses anxiety, sleep, depression and quality of life in rheumatoid arthritis patients The main aims are: - asses anxiety, sleep, depression and quality of life in rheumatoid arthritis patients - their relation to disease activity we will compare rheumatoid arthritis patients to healthy subjects.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo and tocilizumab controlled phase II trial in RA patients to evaluate the initial efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic characteristics, and immunogenicity of VDJ001 in RA patients.
The aim of this study is to investigate the sonographic differences in entheses in patients with Rheumatoid arthritis and Axial Spondyloarthropathy.
This research is a clinical trial of administering mesenchymal stem cell secretome to rheumatoid arthritis patients.
Brief Summary: Participants with rheumatoid arthritis with recommendation to physiotherapy. Created 2 study groups: 1. Kinesiotherapy with static magnetic field 2. Kinesiotherapy with low-frequency pulsed magnetic field Pulsed magnetic field give better effects then static magnetic field.
The goal of this prospective cohort study is to learn about whether exercise alters microRNA expression levels in 30 rheumatoid arthritis patients and 30 healthy controls. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does exercise affect microRNA expression levels related to the pathophysiology of rheumatoid arthritis? - Are microRNA levels correlated with disease activity? Participants was applied program consisting of strengthening and stretching exercises 2 days a week for 8 weeks. One day a week, 30 minutes of mild moderate walking was requested. Researchers will compare rheumatoid arthritis patients and healthy controls to see if that the microRNA expression levels of patients with rheumatoid arthritis as a result of exercise training would not make a significant difference with healthy controls.
The goal of this prospective, randomized controlled study was to inverstigate the effect of humor on pain and in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) during IV treatment. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - to compare the effect of humor on pain between two groups of patients with RA who watched a comedy movie (intervention group) and who did not (control group) during IV biological therapy. - to compare the effect of humor on anxiety between two groups of patients with RA who watched a comedy movie (intervention group) and who did not (control group) during IV biological therapy. Participants in the intervention group watched a comedy movie during routine IV biologic treatment in the chemotherapy unit, while the control group received only routine IV biologic treatment as a usual care.
