Patients in the AI-supported mobile application group will be able to log in with a username and password that will be defined specifically for them. Patients will be informed about how the application is used during their first interview. They will enter their personal and disease characteristics (age, gender, height, weight, HbA1C, HDL, LDL) into the application at the entrance. Other sections of the application will include exercise, nutrition, medication tracking, complication tracking and diabetic foot care sections. The person will be asked to enter relevant information in these fields according to their own life and condition (for example; how many times do you use insulin per day, what are your medication times, how do you spend your day in terms of exercise, how many meals do you eat, what is your diet, do you urinate frequently, are you extremely thirsty, are you hungry often, do you have numbness in your hands and feet, etc.). After the patient enters the necessary information, they will also be asked to enter their daily blood sugar measurement values into the system. Thus, the individual's hypo/hyperglycemia risk, risk analysis, nutrition recommendations, medication reminder system, exercise reminder and incentive warnings will be communicated to the individual thanks to the AI-based mobile application. The aim of this application is to reduce the risk of complications and improve the individual's quality of life by providing personalized recommendations for all the needs of the individual, including alarms and reminders, and to support patients to continue their diabetes education and disease management more actively.

Spinal anesthesia is frequently administered using the conventional landmark technique. Ultrasound is a non-invasive and safe approach. Neuroaxial anesthesia procedures can be conducted using two different ultrasound techniques; Real-Time Ultrasound Guided (USRTG) and Ultrasound-Assisted (USAS). The primary objective of this study is to compare the successes of spinal anesthesia applications using USRTG, USAS, and conventional landmark techniques on the first attempt in obese patients undergoing orthopedic surgery.

The Traumatic Injuries distress Scale is a patient-reported measure that assesses suffering following non-catastrophic musculoskeletal injuries. The original English version demonstrated acceptable accuracy in predicting recovery trajectories up to 12 months later. This study aimed to determine the cultural adaptation, validity and reliability of the Turkish version of TIDS-TR in young and physically active patients with hip pain.
