Only a few studies have focused on different kinds of loss other than bereavement. This study aims to examine the relationship between type (bereavement or health loss) and psychological growth. The sample including 116 participants with either bereavement was evaluated Posttraumatic Growth Inventory Hamilton Depression Rating Scale. A linear regression analysis performed in which growth score dependent variable, depression severity, presence post-loss psychiatric treatment, type, age, sex,...
This study aimed to determine whether there was any association between the intensity of intraoperative gaseous microembolic signals (GME), neuropsychological testing and clinical outcome in high-risk patients undergoing coronary artery surgery (CABG).Over a 6-month period, GME activity monitored 102 Euroscore 6+ during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with conventional 32-micron arterial filter by non-invasive, real-time ultrasonic device. Cognitive tests; line bisection, Stroop test, finger...
The complexity of raw functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data with artifacts leads to significant challenges in multioperations these data. FMRI analysis is extensively used neuroimaging fields, but the tools for processing fMRI are lacking. A novel APP DESIGNER conversion, preprocessing, and postprocessing (CPREPP fMRI) tool proposed developed this work. This toolbox intended pipeline analysis, including full data, starting from DICOM then checking quality at each step, ending...
Abstract Recent evidence suggests that the brain intrinsic activity during rest might be as significant task evoked activities and consumes considerable energy linked to neural signaling processes. We performed an fMRI study recently aiming compare differences in between patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder healthy volunteers a simple suppression paradigm. hypothesized would show default mode network (DMN) connectivity dissociations from individuals. OcD had higher (p < 0.05) than...
Background and aims: Treatment adherence is one of the most important factors that may determine treatment response in patients with bipolar disorders (BD). Many have been described to be associated BD. Temperament can influence course BD will an impact on adherence. The aim this study investigate temperament effect euthymic BD-I. Methods: Eighty BD-I participated study. A psychiatrist used Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis-I Disorders diagnosis co-morbidities. Hamilton...
Ergenlik dönemine ilişkin sorunlar tarihsel süreç içerisinde her ne kadar farklılık göstersede tüm toplumlarda günümüze var olmaya devam etmiştir. Çünkü ergenler bu dönemde kimlik oluşumunu yaşamakta, geleceği planlamakta ve son derece zor bir süreçten geçmektedir. Dost edinme arkadaşlık kurmanın önem kazanması, popülerlik, kendini gerçekleştirme, hedefler belirleme en önemlisi çok hızlı biyo-psiko-sosyal değişimler geçirmesi bireyleri farklı problemler sarmalına sürükleyebilmektedir....
To localize and identify chewing-related areas their connections with other centres in the human brain using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).The paradigm of present study was block designed. Spontaneous controlled chewing sugar-free gum used as main task a 3-Tesla fMRI unit 32-channel birdcage coil. Our popu-lation comprised 32 healthy volunteers. determine possible intersections, we also put rosary pulling (silent tell one's beads) movement protocol. The data analyses were...
To investigate whether the autonomic nervous system (ANS) components are suitable biological markers for representing well-being in patients with erectile dysfunction (ED).The present study included 74 male who had applied check-ups cardiology outpatient clinic at Kirikkale University (Kirikkale, Turkey) and been diagnosed as having hyperlipidemia. Of these patients, 26 an additional diagnosis of ED made up patient group. The remaining 48 formed control Well-being was assessed short-form 36...
Aims: This study aimed to evaluate sexual functioning among hemodialysis patients and their spouses. Materials Methods: The was conducted by the Consultation Liaison Psychiatry Division at Hemodialysis Unit of Department Nephrology, Ankara University, School Medicine as well 3 private dialysis centers in Ankara. group consisted 45 All couples filled out a socio-demographic occupational data form validated Turkish version Arizona Sexual Experiences Scale. were also evaluated psychiatrist...
Eye pupil detection systems have become increasingly popular in image processing and computer vision applications medical systems. In this study, a video-based eye system is developed for diagnosing bipolar disorder. Bipolar disorder condition which people experience changes cognitive processes abilities, including reduced attentional executive capabilities impaired memory. order to detect these abnormal behaviors, number of neuropsychological tests are also designed measure abilities. The...
Resilience is the process of overcoming stressors. Being able to examine effect Covid epidemic on healthcare workers (HCWs) has provided us a unique opportunity understand impact trauma resilience. We aimed investigate relationship between stress, mentalization, and an individual's coping capacity against real risk (Covid-19) evaluate predictors 302 HCWs have enrolled in study completed online questionnaire assessing demographics, perceived resilience, coping, mentalization. utilized...
Objective: To investigate the effects of treatments ‘mad honey’, blossom honey and nitrofurazone on infected wound healing. Method: Male albino Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups: honey’ (MH), (BH), (N) control (C). All anaesthetised intraperitoneally. A circular skin incision was made to back regions. Grafts containing slime-producing Staphylococcus epidermidis placed area then sutured skin. Infection in confirmed after 48 hours. Wounds dressed twice daily with various...
Amaç:
Action naming is reported to be more damaged in patients with schizophrenia than object naming. Aim of this study understand the cortical mechanism underlying negative symptoms seen such as inactivity, restricted behavioral repertoire, by using functional MRI (fMRI) determine whether action origin words have a different representation brain regions and healthy individuals. Our hypothesis that restriction repertoire movement behavior failure "action" "object" are interrelated through same...
Background and aims: Although comorbid anxiety disorders (AD) are quite frequent in bipolar (BD), data on how this comorbidity affects BD limited. In the present study, we aimed to investigate frequency of AD Turkish patients with disorder-I (BD-I) effects course BD-I. Methods: 114 BD-I were included study. All diagnosed by a psychiatrist. The divided into two groups as lifetime (BDI-CAD) or those without (BDI). Results: 37 (32.46%) had one more AD. numbers admissions outpatient clinic...
Brachial plexus birth injury (BPBI) may cause permanent disability. It is recently thought to result from the (mal)adaptive reorganizational central nervous system problems.In this study, adult patients with BPBI and age-matched healthy controls were compared for cortical activity during action observation by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).The in was significantly weaker than control group (p < .05). Areas of difference middle temporal gyrus, premotor area, inferior parietal...
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to adapt the “Neuropathic Pain Impact on Quality‐of‐Life Questionnaire” (Ne PIQ oL) into Turkish and test its validity reliability in neuropathic pain patients. Methods We enrolled 200 chronic patients who admitted Neurology Department Kirikkale University, Faculty Medicine, our study. Patients were diagnosed with or nociceptive based medical history, physical examination, electromyography nerve conduction studies, laboratory examinations,...
Eye tracking systems have become increasingly popular in computer vision applications. In this study, a video-based pupil detection system and neuropsychological tests for the are developed diagnosing of neuropsychiatric disorders. An Active Contour Snake model with ellipse fitting algorithm is proposed to extract position (x, y) radius (r) information pupils video sequences. The research applied three different groups, namely; bipolar disorder group, control group schizophrenia group. order...
