Study of Running Injuries and Treatment Habits in Romanian Speakers

This study examines running injuries, quality of life, and treatment habits among Romanian-speaking runners. A key objective is the Romanian language adaptation and validation of the University of Wisconsin Running Injury and Recovery Index (UWRI), a running-specific questionnaire. The purpose is to understand: * What types of running injuries are most common * How injuries affect runners' daily life and well-being * What prevention and treatment methods runners currently use * What healthcare services runners use for injuries * To provide a validated Romanian version of the UWRI questionnaire Participants will complete an online questionnaire about their running experience, any injuries they have had, how these injuries affected their life, and what treatments they tried. The survey takes about 25-30 minutes to complete. All information is confidential and anonymous. This research will help healthcare providers better understand and treat running injuries in the Romanian-speaking community.

Validation of the Dutch Translation of the Prosthesis Evaluation Questionnaire

The aim of our research is to be able to use the questionnaire 'Prosthesis Evaluation Questionnaire' (PEQ) in Dutch. The PEQ is a validated and reliable questionnaire for research into the quality of life in adults with a lower limb prosthesis. The research consists of two phases. The first phase is the translation of the PEQ and the second phase is the validation of this questionnaire. To validate the questionnaire, we want to include 84 participants who have to complete questionnaires three times within a period of three months.

Magnetic Resonance & Optical Spectroscopy Validation

The purpose of this study is to develop and refine techniques for using magnetic resonance and optical spectroscopy to investigate how your body uses energy.

Validity and Reliability of the Turkish Version of the Manual Dexterity Questionnaire

El fonksiyonunun bozulması, özellikle ince motor becerileri gerektiren aktivitelerde önemli zorluklara yol açar. Parkinson hastalığı teşhisi konan bireylerin yaklaşık %90'ı, gömleği düğmelemek, ayakkabı bağcıklarını bağlamak veya bozuk paralarla uğraşmak gibi elli görevleri yerine getirmekte zorluk çeker. Ambülasyon zorlukları ve bilişsel bozukluğun ardından, el fonksiyonundaki eksiklikler Parkinson hastalığı olan bireylerde yaşam kalitesini olumsuz etkileyen üçüncü en önemli faktörü temsil eder. El Beri Anketi (DextQ-24), Parkinson hastalığı olan bireylerde, özellikle günlük aktiviteler bağlamında el fonksiyonunu değerlendirmek için geçerli ve güvenilir bir araç olarak tanımlanmıştır. Bununla birlikte, mevcut literatürün gözden geçirilmesi ve anketin orijinal geliştiricisi ile doğrudan iletişim, bir Türkçe çevirinin henüz doğrulanmadığını veya güvenilirlik açısından test edilmediğini göstermektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Parkinson hastalığı olan bireylerde el fonksiyonunun değerlendirilmesi için El Beceri Anketi'nin (DextQ-24) Türkçe versiyonunun geçerliliğini ve güvenilirliğini değerlendirmek, böylece klinik uygulamada, değerlendirmelerde ve gelecekteki araştırmalarda kullanımını kolaylaştırmaktır.

Evaluation of Validity and Reliability of the Turkish Translation of the Digital Health Readiness Questionaire in Different Chronic Diseases

The World Health Organization (WHO) defines digital health as the field of knowledge and application related to any aspect of the adoption of digital technology in the stages of improvement. The combination of digital health with technology brings about a new transformation in digital media. This transformation allows for the development of communication and information in health services, the ability to conduct health-related research on digital media and the evaluation of this data. The ease of access to information and the provision of a timely feedback mechanism in the face of problems have enabled the spread of digital health systems, and have also enabled chronic disease management and epidemic disease monitoring. It is recommended that the term digital readiness be used to cover the combination of digital access and use, digital literacy and digital health literacy. Digital health readiness is also defined as the main determinant of health and is thought to contribute to the improvement of health processes with the development of digital health literacy and to be a useful solution against health problems that may arise in the follow-up of chronic diseases. Although there are tools in the literature that evaluate digital health readiness, there is no Turkish assessment tool that facilitates the follow-up of non-communicable chronic diseases. Therefore, the aim of our study is to evaluate the translation, validity, and reliability of the Digital Health Readiness Questionaire into Turkish in individuals with chronic non-infectious diseases.
