Physical therapy with its advantages may be an alternative method in the treatment, which was not reported previously.Case description: Phonophoresis therapy is applied in nine patients with dysphagia due to cervical osteophytes.Results: The symptom of dysphagia regressed in various degrees in all patients after phonophoresis therapy.Conclusions: Phonophoresis might be an alternative method for the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) treatment in patients with dysphagia due to cervical osteophytes.Keywords: cervical, osteophyte, dysphagia, physical therap

No full textHere is a Turkish paperback narrower than most I have seen, about 4 x 7½. Its 55 pages include a number of black-and-white illustrations, many of them cut off at the top of the page. Many of the same colored illustrations are here as appeared in the Kurtulus Yayinlari paperback La Fontaine Secme Masallar of 1990, only here just a portion of the picture is included. This procedure works fine for TH on 5, except perhaps that the tortoise's head is cut off at the side of the page. It works less well on 32, where it can be difficult for a viewer to get enough gestalt to make out a horse and a donkey. Many are the solutions to the problems of publishing inexpensive fable books! On the colored cover, we find FC. There is no T of C or AI. Like several other Turkish paperback renditions of the fables, this little book has Masallar on its title-page but Masallari on its cover. This one also changes the spelling of La Fontaine from one place to the other.Language note: TurkishOriginal language: freKapak Duzeni: M. Deliogl
Comparison of the Efficacy of Low-Level Laser Therapy and Pulsed Ultrasound Treatment in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: A Placebo-Controlled Study
No full textObjective: To evaluate the effect of low-level laser treatment (LLLT) and pulsed ultrasound (US) treatment in carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and to compare the effects of both treatment modalities. Materials and Methods: 60 patients diagnosed with CTS were randomly divided into four groups as US group (group 1), placebo US group (group 2), LLLT group (group 3) and plasebo LLLT group (group 4). Both treatments were applied five days a week for three weeks. Clinical and electrophysiological assessments were performed before and 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment. Pain, hypoesthesia and handgrip strength were evaluated. The Boston Questionnaire was used to assess the severity of symptoms and functional status. Results: 52 patients with 101 hands completed the study. Demographic and electrophysiological parameters were similar in the four groups. Both pulsed US treatment and LLLT were found to provide significant improvements in clinical parameters such as pain, sensory loss, symptom severity score and functional capacity score (p<0.05). No significant beneficial effect was observed in both placebo groups (p<0.05). Evaluations of the electrophysiological parameters showed no significant difference between the groups (p>0.05). In terms of clinical efficacy, pulsed US was found to be superior to LLLT (p<0.05). Conclusion: The two treatment modalities showed significant improvements in subjective clinical symptoms while no significant changes were observed in any electrophysiological parameters
