This study tested two different chemotherapy drugs (Treosulfan and Busulfan) given before a stem cell transplant in 106 children with serious non-cancer diseases like immune disorders, metabolic diseases, blood disorders, and bone marrow failure. The goal was to see which drug le…

This study looked at 50 patients who needed a stem cell transplant from a partially matched donor but had antibodies that could attack the donor cells. Before transplant, they received a blood purification treatment called protein A immunoadsorption to remove those antibodies, so…

This study tested a Turkish version of the Johns Hopkins In-Room Independence Scale, which measures a patient's ability to move, use the toilet, and think clearly while in their hospital room. Researchers worked with 100 adults who had conditions like stroke, Parkinson's, or ampu…

This study tested a new method called global metabolomic profiling to diagnose inborn errors of metabolism, a group of rare genetic disorders. Researchers compared this approach to traditional testing in 240 participants. The goal was to see if the new method could more accuratel…

This study looked at whether touch-massage can reduce anxiety in people with blood disorders (like leukemia or lymphoma) who are hospitalized in a sterile, isolated room. Sixty-two patients received three massage sessions, and researchers measured their anxiety levels before and …

This study looked at how common muscle and posture problems are in physiotherapy students and whether a special physiotherapy program could help. 44 students with back pain and muscle tightness received treatments like trigger point release, stretching, and joint mobilization. Th…

This study tested a monthly online peer support group for young adults (ages 18-39) who had received a stem cell transplant. The group met for one hour over six months, led by a nurse and social worker. The goal was to see if the program was practical and helpful for reducing anx…

This study tested whether montelukast (Singulair), a common asthma drug, can reduce the number and severity of infusion reactions in people receiving monoclonal antibody treatments for blood disorders. Forty adults were given montelukast along with standard premedication before t…

This study looked at whether letting patients control their own sedation during arm surgery under regional anesthesia leads to higher satisfaction compared to having an anesthesiologist control it. 70 adults having upper limb orthopedic surgery were randomly assigned to either pa…

This study created a registry of medical records from women with inborn errors of metabolism—rare conditions that affect how the body turns food into energy. Researchers collected data from past or current pregnancies and followed babies for one year after birth. The goal was to …

This completed study looked at how the social networks of caregivers affect their stress and health when caring for someone with an inherited disease. Researchers surveyed over 680 participants, including family members and formal caregivers, to understand caregiving burden and s…

This study translated the Generic Functional Index, a questionnaire that measures how well people can do daily activities, into Turkish. Researchers tested it with 200 adults who have muscle or joint problems to see if it is accurate and reliable. The goal is to give Turkish-spea…

This study looked for a virus called HHV6 in the skin and blood of 37 adults with blood cancers who developed a rash during hospital stays. The goal was to see if the virus is linked to the rash, which could help doctors diagnose and treat the rash more effectively. The study is …

This study looked at whether it is safe to lower the number of platelets needed before placing a central line (a special IV) in patients with blood disorders. Normally, patients get a platelet transfusion if their count is below 50, but this study tested a lower trigger of 10. Th…

This study explored whether low hemoglobin (anemia) is linked to an enlarged heart (cardiomegaly) in children up to 18 years old. Researchers used chest X-rays and echocardiograms to check for heart enlargement in 56 anemic children. The goal was to better understand how anemia a…
