The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of biofeedback-assisted short foot exercises and traditional short foot exercises in individuals with flexible pes planus. The study aims to determine whether adding biofeedback to short foot exercises leads to greater improvements in foot biomechanics, balance, and functional ability. …
The climate crisis and environmental pollution are escalating day by day, making the reduction of carbon footprints increasingly important both on an individual and industrial level. Inhalational anesthetic agents are widely used in daily anesthesia practice. However, some of these agents are released into the environment either unchanged or as …

Postoperative pain control plays a crucial role in enhancing recovery and improving early mobilization in living liver donors. The rectus-intercostal fascial plane (RIFP) block is a novel ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia technique that provides anterior abdominal wall analgesia by targeting the intercostal nerves between the rectus abdominis and intercostal muscle fascia. …
Living liver donor hepatectomy at our institution routinely includes ultrasound-guided interfascial plane blocks as part of postoperative analgesia. Although these blocks have become increasingly used in donor hepatectomy, their cutaneous sensory distributions and block-related dermatomal coverage have not been systematically evaluated, with only anecdotal reports available in the literature. This …
The goal of this observational study is to test whether the discontinuation of antidepressant medications for patients with depression can be decided after the normalization of biological parameters. The main questions it aims are: When patients with depression treated with antidepressants, does their brain activity also become normal? If so, …
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a neuromuscular posture training program implemented in butchers on neck pain, posture quality and upper back muscle control.
