Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GP-asPNA for in vivo treatment of severe antibiotic resistant bacterial keratitis.
Investigators conducted a single-blind, randomized trial of Taijiquan exercise as compared with a control intervention consisting of wellness education and jogging for youngsters with visual impairments. Sessions lasted 60 minutes each and took place three times a week for 12 weeks for each of the study groups. The primary end point was a change in the Brockport Physical Fitness Test (BPFT) at the end of 12 weeks. Secondary end points included summary scores of the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)at the end of 12 weeks.
The purpose of this research study is to observe the patient's clinical care and how EYLEA® HD is used as a treatment in real-world settings. Patients are asked to join the study because they have either neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD/wet age-related macular degeneration [AMD]) or diabetic macular edema (DME). Patients cannot have used EYLEA® HD in the past and the doctor must be planning to treat nAMD or DME with a new prescription of EYLEA® HD (aflibercept 8 mg).
Biodiversity is essential for nature and human well-being. Land use has reduced biodiversity in cities, which weakens the functionality of the urban ecosystems and the well-being of citizens. This may also increase the risk of immune-mediated disorders among urban dwellers. In Biodiversity interventions for assisted living centers (BIWE 2), microbial biodiversity interventions are performed to increase biodiversity in urban housing units for people with autism spectrum disorder, disabled people and elderly. Results from the intervention trials are combined with publicly available land cover and ecological data. These are analyzed from the viewpoint of shifts in ecosystems and human well-being and immune regulation, ecological quality, and urban planning. The investigators set up an intervention study in which yards of the housing units are rewilded with diverse vegetation and decaying deadwood and plant residuals. The investigators aim to evaluate the effect of rewilding, and yard management practices on commensal microbiome, cortisol levels and well-being and salivary cytokine levels, and gene pathways.
My Space aims to identify the ontogenesis of spatial representation through cross-sectional and longitudinal studies in infants, children, and adolescents with typical and atypical development (visual impairments). The results will serve for the design and development of a novel multisensory device for sensorimotor rehabilitation in blind children from the early stages of life.
The overall objective of this study is to assess if the empagliflozin has the potential to substitute the high fat low carb (HFLC) diet for the preparation of cardiovascular FDG-PET studies.
The broad goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate whether a one-month rehabilitative training with our medical device, iReach, can promote the recovery of spatial and sensorimotor abilities and the cortical reorganization process in children with visual impairment between 3 and 36 months of age.
Purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between the visual impairment degree and the level of children's fundamental motor skills, balance and bilateral coordination.
Purpose: This project aimed to examine the effects of laughter yoga, which is accepted as an international nursing initiative, on loneliness, anger and salivary cortisol levels in visually impaired individuals. When the national and international literature was examined, no project was found that measured the results of laughter yoga as an intervention for visually impaired individuals. For this reason, planning an original project in this field aims to contribute to the literature. Thanks to the evidence obtained, laughter yoga, an innovative approach, can be disseminated in institutions and organizations serving visually impaired individuals as an evidence-based practice that can improve the social skills of individuals. Scope and Target Audience: The project will be carried out with visually impaired individuals receiving services in the Disabled Persons Department within the Atatürk Provincial Public Library located in Konak district of Izmir. In this section, services are provided to 250 members who actively use the library and to visually impaired people from all over Turkey. Method and Expected Result: The project was planned in a randomized controlled, pre-test post-test, single-blind follow-up consultancy design. With this initiative, a social rehabilitation environment will be provided for visually impaired individuals by taking an approach based on respect, understanding and awareness. Laughter yoga is expected to reduce the level of anger and loneliness in visually impaired individuals. At the same time, laughter yoga is expected to reduce cortisol levels, which are known to increase when faced with stress factors, and increase serotonin, which is associated with happiness and vitality, and endorphine, known as the body's natural painkiller. With laughter yoga sessions, a social environment will be created where visually impaired individuals will have an active and independent experience. Thanks to the expected evidence, laughter yoga can be popularized both in visually impaired individuals and in individuals with other disabilities. Within the scope of protecting and improving health, laughter yoga can be planned to be carried out as a routine nursing practice in disabled centers. Thus, by creating an environment where visually impaired individuals and nurses come together, a more accessible health service will be provided to individuals with special needs.
