Of the participating women, 36.7% used an intrauterine device for birth control, 27.8% used condoms, 13.8% used hormonal drugs. No statistically significant differences were determined between the mean scores obtained from the Dyadic Adjustment Scale and between the mean scores obtained from the Sexual Quality of Life Questionnaire-Female in terms of the family planning methods the participants used (p>0.05). However, differences between the mean scores the participants obtained from the affectional expression subscale of Dyadic Adjustment Scale were found to be statistically significant in terms of the family planning methods they used ( Daha fazlası Daha az

In the first of the determined universities, a department with a course related to "Breast milk and Breastfeeding" in their curriculum; a department that did not have any course in the same scope in the curriculum of the other university was determined by randomization. The sample of the study consisted of 381 volunteer participiants stud . . .ying in these two departments. Data were collected using the Personel Information Form and the Breast Milk Perception Scale. The mean age of the participiants is 20.95±1.60, 50.9% of them took course / training related to "Breast milk and Breastfeeding", 49.1% did not take any course / training. The participiants’ scale total score mean is 61.82±15.86 (min:30, max:150). In our study, the breast milk perception scores of the participiants who took courses / training related to breast milk and breastfeeding within the scope of their curriculum were found to be high. The breast milk perception scores of the female participiants were higher than the male, the participiants whose mother's education level was at secondary school and above were higher than those whose mother's education level was primary school or below, and the students who defined their income status as "high level" had higher breast milk perception scores than those who defined their income status as "low/medium level" (p0.05). Health education and counseling services related to breast milk and breastfeeding should be expanded to include not only women but also individuals from all walks of life and all ages. Health professionals should strive to increase the awareness and knowledge level of young people, who are considered to be the parents of the future Daha fazlası Daha az

Background Exercise training after COVID-19 infection may improve functional loss in the post-acute period. Aims We aimed to investigate the effects of 12-week exercise training on pulmonary function, functional capacity, balance, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) six months after intensive care unit (ICU) discharge in patients with severe COVID-19 infection. Methods Fifty post-COVID patients (35 M, 15F) who were followed in the ICU for at least one day and were in the sixth month of ICU discharge were included in the study. Twenty-five patients were in the exercise group (age=52.88±11.95 years, 18M, 7F), and 25 patients (a . . .ge=53.64±11.92 years 17M, 8F) were in the control group. In addition to their routine follow-up, the exercise group received aerobic exercise (30-minute walking training at 70-80% of the 6MWT distance) and strengthening training (upper and lower extremities) for 12 weeks. Patients performed exercise three days per week (twice under the supervision of a physiotherapist and once at home). In the control group, only routine follow-up continued. At baseline, 6th and 12th weeks, pulmonary function and respiratory (MIP and MEP, respectively) and peripheral muscle strength (quadriceps and handgrip), exercise capacity (six-minute walk test, 6MWT), dyspnea (Modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale, MMRC), fatigue (Fatigue Severity Score, FSS), balance (Time-Up Go test, TUG), cognitive function (Mini Mental State Examination, MMSE), anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, HADS), and quality of life (Nottingham Health Profile, NHP, and St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire, SGRQ) were evaluated. Results After 12-week exercise training, FVC, FEV1, MIP, MEP, quadriceps and hand grip strength, and 6MWT distance increased ( Daha fazlası Daha az
