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 tested whether specially trained physiotherapists can safely diagnose and treat non-urgent muscle and joint pain in the emergency room, compared to standard care from doctors. 102 patients with back, neck, or shoulder pain were randomly assigned to either a physiothera…

This study measured levels of brain chemicals related to oxidative stress and inflammation in people with type 1 Gaucher disease and healthy volunteers. Researchers gave 33 participants with Gaucher disease the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) for about 90 days to see if it cha…

This study looked at 14 men with no teeth in their lower jaw to compare two types of connectors (multiunit abutments vs. OT Equator abutments) for implant-supported dentures. The goal was to see which connector led to less bone loss around the implants over 9 months. X-rays were …

This completed study compared how well people with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), people with other muscle or bone pain, and healthy individuals can imagine movements. Researchers used a questionnaire called the MIQ-RS to measure motor imagery skills. The goal was to see …

This study surveyed 116 adults with chronic pain at a rehabilitation clinic to understand how their pain beliefs, spiritual well-being, and attitudes toward complementary and alternative medicine are related. Participants filled out several questionnaires about their pain, mood, …
