Its onset is around 40 years of age and it is estimated that over 80% of people over 55 have evidence of radiographic changes in the knee due to osteoarthritis. It has been estimated that the incidence has increased by the increase in life expectancy and it has been identified as a frequent cause for health services demand in patients over 65(2).
The common clinical manifestations of knee OA include pain, stiffness, joint enlargement, crepitus, muscle weakness, deformity, impaired proprioception, reduced joint motion, and disability(3).
Patients with knee Osteoarthritis seems to develop their own gait pattern and try to unload the affected structures during gait. More over patients with less severe knee osteoarthritis develop a gait pattern that differs from patients with severe osteoarthritis and control group of patients (4).
Isometric exercises are types of strength training in which the joint angle and muscle length do not change during contraction, and therefore this approach can be advantageous in the early stages of knee rehabilitation in cases where the range of motion is restricted due to pain (13). No physical work is performed during isometric exercise. Intensity and duration combination reflects the energy consumption of an isometric contraction (14). In addition, muscle strength increases in isometric exercise are specific to the angle applied. It was also concluded that isometric exercise performed at different angles should be especially considered as an alternative strength training since it induces the most noticeable and fastest increase in muscle moment (15). A study was conducted to investigate the effects of isometric quadriceps exercise on muscle strength, pain, and function in knee osteoarthritis, it was concluded that isometric quadriceps exercise program showed beneficial effects on quadriceps muscle strength, pain, and functional disability in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee (16).
Another study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of Isometric exercise and counseling on level of pain among patients with Knee osteoarthritis, the authors concluded that Isometric exercise and counseling program has significantly reduced pain, stiffness and improved physical function and the authors recommended that Isometric exercise and counselling should be adopted as a routine care in the hospitals treating patients with knee osteoarthritis (17) Thus, we hypothesized that a less intensive walking program such as retro walking program could provide an additional benefit more than those experienced by forward walking program in the previous studies. Therefore, the primary aim of the present study was to compare the effect of retro walking versus isometric multiangular exercises group on knee pain and function in geriatric people.

During minimally invasive gynecologic surgeries, the abdomen is inflated with pressurized air for visualization purposes and released at the end of the surgery. Traditionally, TAP blocks are performed by injecting long-acting local anesthetic agents under ultrasound guidance into the abdominal wall after abdominal surgery after the air has been emptied from the abdomen for additional anesthetic coverage post-operatively.

Patients experience high degrees of disability and distress, equivalent to those suffering from degenerative neurological diseases. Rehabilitation is essential in their management. However, the current systems of rehabilitation delivery face two main challenges. Patients are not receiving the amount and kind of evidence-based rehabilitation they need due to the lack of rehabilitation professionals and experts in the field. The rehabilitation setting is not adequate for the long-term management and monitoring of these patients. Digital medicine is a new field that means "using digital tools to upgrade the practice of medicine to one that is high-definition and far more individualized." It can upgrade rehabilitation practice, addressing the existing critical components towards marked efficiency and productivity. Digital telerehabilitation will increase the accessibility to personalized rehabilitation by expert professionals placing tools to monitor the patient's health by themselves.
The increasing development and availability of portable and wearable technologies are rapidly expanding the field of technology-based objective measures (TOMs) in neurological disorders. However, substantial challenges remain in (1) recognizing TOMs relevant to patients and clinicians to provide accurate, objective, and real-time assessment of gait and activity in a real-world setting and (2) their integration into telerehabilitation systems towards a digital rehabilitation transition.
This feasibility study provides preliminary data on the integration of a real-time gait and activity analysis by wearable devices in the real world with a digital platform to improve the diagnosis, monitoring, and rehabilitation of patients with FMDs. conditions: Functional Movement Disorder studyType: INTERVENTIONAL phases: NA allocation: RANDOMIZED interventionModel: PARALLEL interventionModelDescription: This is an experimental single-blind randomized-controlled trial (RCT) with 2-parallel arms comparing the effects between the experimental group (EG) and control group (CG).

However, this treatment will negatively impact different aspects of bowel function and the patients' quality of life. These bowel symptoms often remain prevalent, even at 12 months after RC treatment. Most assessment tools are however not capable of capturing the full range or therapeutic-related evolution of these bowel symptoms. Consequently, the aim is to develop a validated bowel diary for diagnosing and evaluation of all bowel symptoms. conditions: Rectal Cancer conditions: LARS - Low Anterior Resection Syndrome studyType: INTERVENTIONAL phases: NA allocation: NON_RANDOMIZED interventionModel: SINGLE_GROUP primaryPurpose: SUPPORTIVE_CARE masking: NONE count: 118 type: ESTIMATED name: bowel e-diary measure: Selection of items for the newly developed bowel diary measure: Assessment of content validity of the newly developed bowel diary in a post-Delphi patient focus group consisting of 8-12 participants measure: The usability of the newly developed e-diary, assessed with the System Usability Scale (SUS) in patients after rectal surgery for rectal cancer measure: The usability of the newly developed e-diary will be evaluated through conversations with patients who have undergone rectal surgery for rectal cancer, after these patients have used the e-diary for seven consecutive days measure: Construct validity of the newly developed bowel e-diary measure: Criterion validity of the newly developed bowel e-diary measure: Test-retest reliability of the newly developed bowel e-diary measure: Responsiveness of the newly developed bowel e-diary in patients after rectal surgery for rectal cancer.

Biomarkers are measures of what is happening inside the body, shown by the results of laboratory, imaging or other tests.
Biomarkers can help doctors and scientists diagnose diseases and health conditions, monitor responses to treatment and see how a person's disease or health condition changes over time.
The goal of this observational and laboratory study is to develop clinical, neurophysiology and molecular biomarkers in RAI1-related disorders. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:
* to characterize the disease features more precisely and analyze the differentiating and overlapping features of RAI1-related disorders (Smith-Magenis syndrome and Potocki-Lupski Syndrome)
* to identify clinical, neurophysiology, and laboratory biomarkers that differentiate RAI1-related disorders one from another.
Participants will have to complete:
* a clinical examination
* a blood draw
* a skin biopsy (optional)

Prenatal attachment may be experienced differently by parents conceiving through fertility interventions. The rising prevalence of fertility treatments is associated with increased risks such as preterm birth, low birth weight, and perinatal mortality for pregnancies achieved through infertility treatments. Beyond medical implications, post-infertility treatment pregnancies can induce high levels of anxiety and a perception of pregnancy as risky, affecting individuals psychologically. The transition to parenthood after infertility treatment can be psychologically challenging.
Healthy prenatal attachment in expectant mothers fosters the development of a healthy role as both mother and father. Maternal bonding is closely tied to a woman's mental health during the prenatal period and her commitment to her baby. Similarly, prenatal bonding with the father sheds light on the emotional connection developing between the father and the unborn child. Active participation in prenatal experiences, such as attending ultrasound appointments or discussing parenting plans, contributes to a stronger sense of attachment for fathers and establishes a positive foundation for future bonding. Supportive partner relationships during pregnancy enhance paternal bonding and emphasize the importance of a collaborative approach to prenatal care for both parents. The prenatal period is critical for fathers to establish an early emotional connection with their unborn children, laying a positive groundwork for postnatal bonding.
Various interventions aim to enhance communication between parents and augment prenatal attachment. One such practice is haptonomy-haptotherapy. Haptotherapy focuses on restoring emotional connections, especially with one's own body. It helps individuals recognize their emotional capacities and allows them to experience these capacities through insightful conversations, therapeutic touch, and skill exercises. In the context of pregnancy, haptonomy involves physical contact between the pregnant woman, her partner, and the unborn baby. Advocates of haptonomy believe that this touch-based communication can strengthen the bond between parents and the baby, promote a sense of security, and positively influence the pregnancy experience.
Haptonomy is thought to contribute positively to the psychological well-being of women during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period, potentially preventing mental health issues and enhancing the health of both mother and baby. It is emphasized that haptonomy is a distinct practice focused on enhancing communication between parents and the baby. Existing literature suggests that haptonomy can increase emotional bonding during the prenatal period and may be effective for parents showing low attachment. Studies indicate that touch communication develops from the second month, involving vibrations for communicating with the fetus, ultimately increasing bonding through haptonomy. Furthermore, haptonomy is reported to enhance both spousal and parental attachment, as demonstrated in a study emphasizing increased attachment for fathers with their partners and children.
Despite documented benefits of haptonomy in various patient groups, from cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy to pregnant women and those with chronic pain, limited research exists on haptotherapy for pregnant women. This study aims to investigate the impact of partner-administered haptonomy on prenatal attachment and marital adjustment in pregnant women. Conducted through a randomized controlled experimental design, the study seeks to provide evidence by enhancing prenatal attachments in both mothers and fathers.
Research Hypotheses:
H0-1: The application of haptonomy by partners has an effect on maternal attachment in pregnant women.
H1-1: The application of haptonomy by partners does not have an effect on maternal attachment in pregnant women.
H0-2: The application of haptonomy by partners has no effect on paternal attachment in pregnant women.

There are limited studies determining that nursing care provided according to this theory contributes to the increase in patients' comfort levels in various patient groups. This study will be carried out in the hemodialysis center of a public hospital located in the city center of Bingöl. Patients in the intervention group receiving hemodialysis treatment will be given nursing care by the researcher for 12 sessions during the sessions in which the patient receives hemodialysis treatment. In order to provide nursing care, nursing diagnoses suitable for the patient group will be determined in advance and the care the patient needs will be given according to these diagnoses.. If necessary, the researcher will add additional diagnoses to the preliminary diagnosis form and provide care.
In this research, the individual nursing care needs of the researcher patient will be determined. Individualized caregiving is unique to this study. Individually provided care is expected to increase patient comfort and satisfaction. Increased comfort will help the patient cope more easily with the disease and hemodialysis treatment symptoms. In addition, the results of individual care provided can guide nurses in their care behaviors. By adding this research to the literature, the groundwork will be laid for studies that will provide individual care to patients. It is expected that the results of this research will guide the planning of the research and the provision of individualized care in all patient groups, especially patients receiving hemodialysis treatment. conditions: Hemodialysis Complication conditions: Nurse's Role studyType: INTERVENTIONAL phases: NA allocation: RANDOMIZED interventionModel: PARALLEL interventionModelDescription: pretest posttest randomized controlled trial primaryPurpose: SUPPORTIVE_CARE masking: DOUBLE whoMasked: INVESTIGATOR whoMasked: OUTCOMES_ASSESSOR count: 70 type: ESTIMATED name: nursing care measure: General Comfort Scale measure: Dialysis Symptom Index sex: ALL minimumAge: 18 Years stdAges: ADULT stdAges: OLDER_ADULT facility: Ataturk University city: Erzurum state: Diğerleri zip: 25200 country: Turkey name: REVA BALCI AKPINAR, PROF.

It is understood that single injection digital block and double injection digital block techniques do not have significant advantages over each other in terms of pain levels and procedure times.
However, the need for rescue anesthesia was evaluated to be lower in the single injection digital block technique. This difference is especially due to measurements in the volar region incisions.

This study is being conducted to investigate whether transcutaneous spinal stimulation can improve these symptoms. Transcutaneous spinal stimulation is a non-surgical intervention by applying electrical currents using skin electrodes over the lower back and belly.
The investigators want to see how well the intervention of transcutaneous spinal stimulation performs by testing different levels of stimulation pulse rates. Also, transcutaneous spinal stimulation is compared to muscle relaxants such as baclofen and tizanidine, commonly given to people with spinal cord injuries, to reduce muscle stiffness and spasms. By doing this, the investigators hope to discover if transcutaneous spinal stimulation similarly reduces muscle spasms and stiffness or if combining both methods works best.

Derived from cognitive-behavioral therapy, a well-established treatment for depression, behavioral activation uses psychoeducation and skill-building to increase an individual's engagement in valued and enjoyable activities (e.g., socializing with family and friends, exercising, participating in a hobby) in order to improve depressive symptoms. Research has shown that behavioral activation is an effective intervention for depressed youth. Additionally, it has been shown as a promising intervention that can be conducted in a brief, virtual format and can be effectively implemented by both trained clinicians and trained, non-licensed interventionists. This project will provide Behavioral Activation for youth (12-17) experiencing depression or suicidal ideation who are currently enrolled in the Youth Depression Suicide Network study in Texas. conditions: Depression conditions: Suicide and Self-harm conditions: Depression in Adolescence conditions: Depression Mild conditions: Depression Moderate conditions: Depression Severe studyType: INTERVENTIONAL phases: NA allocation: NA interventionModel: SINGLE_GROUP interventionModelDescription: Single group, open-label behavioral activation primaryPurpose: TREATMENT masking: NONE count: 250 type: ESTIMATED name: Behavioral Activation measure: Patient Health Questionnaire 9-modified for adolescents (PHQ-A) measure: Behavioral Activation for Depression-Short Form (BAD-SF) measure: Dimensional Anhedonia Rating Scale (DARS) measure: Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) measure: Duke Social Support Index (DSSI) sex: ALL minimumAge: 12 Years maximumAge: 18 Years stdAges: CHILD stdAges: ADULT facility: Baylor College of Medicine status: RECRUITING city: Houston state: Texas zip: 77030 country: United States name: Eric Storch, Ph.D. role: CONTACT phone: 713-798-3080 email: [email protected] lat: 29.76328 lon: -95.36327 hasResults: False

This study is recruiting participants who recently started treatment for anxiety or a related concern to come in for 3 visits at the Medical University of South Carolina. At the first visit, participants will do interviews and surveys asking about anxiety and related concerns, and they do tasks where they respond to emotional pictures while brain activity is measured using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). At the next two visits, participants again do a task where they see and react to emotional images, and this time the task is done once before and again once after receiving tFUS that either actively causes temporary changes (lasting for about an hour) in a targeted brain area or is not active (no changes elicited). At each tFUS visit, responses are measured with sensors worn on the hand, arms, face, and head (these visits do not involve MRI).
