The Gait Outcomes Assessment List (GOAL) questionnaire: Test-retest reliability and validity in children with cerebral palsy in Türkiye.

Background: Most questionnaires provide little information about children's or parents' views on functioning and do not attempt to understand their priorities or expectations. The Gait Outcomes Assessment List (GOAL) questionnaire was developed to fill this gap by identifying the most important goals of the patient and family for a gait intervention.

Research Question: To investigate the test-retest reliability and concurrent and discriminant validity of the GOAL questionnaire in children with cerebral palsy (CP) in Türkiye.

The Usefulness of Serum Brain Damage Biomarkers in Detection and Evaluation of Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy in Calves with Perinatal Asphyxia.

The purpose of the present study was to determine hypoxic brain damage in calves with perinatal asphyxia using brain-specific damage biomarkers. Ten healthy and 25 calves with perinatal asphyxia were enrolled in the study. Clinical examination, neurological status score, and laboratory analysis were performed at admission, 24, 48, and 72 h.

An investigation of body awareness, fatigue, physical fitness, and musculoskeletal problems in young adults with hypermobility spectrum disorder.

Background And Objectives: Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD) is associated with excessive joint range of motion and the presence of musculoskeletal symptoms. The objective of this study was to examine body awareness, physical fitness parameters, fatigue levels, and musculoskeletal disorders in young adults with HSD and compare them with those without HSD.

Methods: Young individuals in the age range of 18-24 years were included in the study.

Pharmacokinetics of carprofen following single and repeated intravenous administrations of different doses in sheep.

The aim of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetics of carprofen following single and repeated intravenous (IV) administrations at 1.4 and 4 mg/kg doses in sheep. The study was carried out on twelve sheep in two experiments as single- and multiple-dose pharmacokinetics.

Can diarrhea affect the pharmacokinetics of racecadotril in neonatal calves?

This study was aimed to determine the pharmacokinetics of antisecretory-acting racecadotril, used in the treatment of diarrhea in humans and dogs, following oral administration in both neonatal calves with healthy and neonatal calves with infectious diarrhea.

Overview of Cattle Diseases Listed Under Category C, D or E in the Animal Health Law for Which Control Programmes Are in Place Within Europe.

The COST action "Standardising output-based surveillance to control non-regulated diseases of cattle in the European Union (SOUND control)," aims to harmonise the results of surveillance and control programmes (CPs) for non-EU regulated cattle diseases to facilitate safe trade and improve overall control of cattle infectious diseases. In this paper we aimed to provide an overview on the diversity of control for these diseases in Europe. A non-EU regulated cattle disease was defined as an infectious disease of cattle with no or limited control at EU level, which is not included in the European Union Animal health law Categories A or B under Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/2002.

Association of biochemical and clinical parameters with parathyroid adenoma weight. Turkish-Bulgarian endocrine and breast surgery study group, hyperparathyroidism registry study.
