The Effect of Compression Stockings on the Complaints of Pregnant Women With Restless Leg Syndrome...
Restless Legs SyndromePregnancy Related1 moreThe aim of this project is to determine the effect of compression stockings on the complaints, well-being and sleep quality of pregnant women with restless legs syndrome (RLS). The research is a pretest-posttest randomized placebo-controlled experimental study. The study will be carried out with a total of 70 people, 35 in the compression stocking group and 35 in the placebo stocking group. Study data will be collected with RLS Diagnostic Criteria Questionnaire Form, Research Criteria Compliance Form, Personal Information Form, RLS Severity Rating Scale, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PUKI), WHO-5 and Implementation Satisfaction Form. Pregnant women in both groups will wear the stockings given for three weeks after the first interview. Data analysis obtained in the research will be performed in TURCOSA statistical software (Turcosa Analytics Ltd Co, Turkey, www.turcosa.com.tr).In comparisons, a value of p <0.05 will be considered statistically significant. In order to conduct the study, the necessary Academic Committee decision, Ethics Committee approval (December 08, 2021 and number 2021/781) and institutional permission were obtained. The individuals included in the study will be informed about the purpose of the research, their verbal consent will be obtained and the participant's informed consent form will be signed.

Balneotherapy for Patients With Post-acute Coronavirus Disease (COVID) Syndrome
Post-COVID-19 SyndromeThe goal of this randomized controlled study is to evaluate the effects of balneotherapy (BT) and aquatic exercises in patients with post-acute COVID syndrome (PACS). The main question it aims to answer are: • Does BT and aquatic exercises alleviate some of the most prevalent features that characterize post-acute COVID syndrome? Participants allocated to the intervention group will undergo 3 weekly sessions of BT and aquatic exercises on alternate days in groups of 8 during 4 weeks. Prior the beginning of the intervention, patients were asked to complete an array of validated self-reported questionnaires that covered an important part of PACS symptomatology. These patients were asked to complete these same questionnaires immediately after completing the intervention and one month after. They were also asked to report adverse events associated to the intervention. Patients allocated to the control group were asked to complete the same questionnaires at baseline and one and two months post-baseline. They were instructed to not enroll in any kind of BT-related activities during the duration of the study. Questionnaires were analyzed and compared between groups to assess the effects of the intervention.

Effect of Hippotherapy in Children With Down Syndrome
Down SyndromePurpose: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of hippotherapy on balance, functional mobility, and functional independence in children with Down syndrome (DS). Methods: Thirty-four children with DS were randomly assigned to the experimental (hippotherapy) and control groups after initial assessment. Both groups received physiotherapy including balance exercises, and the experimental group also received hippotherapy. Pediatric Balance Scale (PBS), Timed Up and Go Test (TUG), and Functional Independence Measure for Children (WeeFIM) were used before and after the intervention.

EFFECT OF EMOTIONAL FREEDOM TECHNIQUE ON PREMENSTRUAL SYNDROME
Premenstrual SyndromePMS is one of the common menstrual disorders affecting many young women, and according to epidemiological data, approximately 75% of women have PMS symptoms and 3-8% have severe PMS symptoms. The prevalence of PMS was different in different countries, with 34% in China , 72% in Turkey , 80% in Pakistan and Jordan. It was detected in the range of 92% in India and 14.3%-74.4% in India. Common premenstrual symptoms include anxiety, lack of concentration, depression, bloating, abdominal cramps, breast tenderness, anger, general body pain, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, decreased concentration, mood swings, headache, anxiety, sleep disturbance, appetite changes. In addition to physical symptoms, studies indicate that individuals reporting PMS experience more stress and anxiety, and their sensitivity to depressive symptoms increases due to hormonal fluctuations. Studies have shown that mindfulness-based cognitive methods are effective in the treatment of mood disorders such as depression. It is thought that modulating many PMS symptoms such as stress and experienced emotional problems through mindfulness-based cognitive methods may be an effective approach for future PMS interventions.

Monitoring in Intensive Care Unit of Neuromuscular Blocking Agents Used for Acute Respiratory Distress...
Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromeMortality in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is high (40 to 60 %). Protective mechanical ventilation is the cornerstone of the ARDS therapeutic strategies. Recently, a prospective multicenter study demonstrates that short-term infusion of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) reduces hospital mortality. However, the mechanisms through which NMBAs could improve survival remain speculative and the dose of NMBA needed to observe a beneficial effect is still debated. In hypoxemic ventilated patients, continuous cisatracurium infusion with an objective of no response at orbicularis oculi to train-of-four (TOF) stimulation and an objective of two responses had similar effects on respiratory parameters. In their study, Papazian and colleagues used cisatracurium with an initial standard dose of 15 mg followed by a continuous infusion of 37.5mg/h, based on previous results of studies with patients monitored for paralysis. Atracurium and its stereoisomer cisatracurium are non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking drugs, both used in anaesthesia and intensive care units. The aim of this study was to compare in ARDS patients a dose adjustment of continuous-atracurium intravenous infusion with an end point of one or two response at orbicularis oculi to TOF stimulation, and a dose adjustment to achieve clinical goals of protective ventilation without monitoring of TOF stimulation.
