How well a Turkish scale measures spinal cord compression
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests a Turkish translation of a spinal cord function scale (mJOA) in people with degenerative cervical myelopathy. It helps doctors and patients better understand and track symptoms.

This study translates a questionnaire about environmental factors that affect people with spinal cord injuries (SCI). They need volunteers to help make sure the questions are clear and relevant for Turkish speakers.
This study is testing a Turkish version of a questionnaire called SCIPI, which is used to measure pain in people with spinal cord injuries. It aims to see if the questionnaire is reliable and accurate for Turkish speakers.
This study tracks people with wear-and-tear damage in the neck spine that pinches the spinal cord. Researchers will collect medical information and imaging over time to understand how this condition develops and affects people.
This study compares two approaches for mild cervical myelopathy: conservative (non-surgical) care versus decompression surgery. If you have mild symptoms from a squeezed spinal cord in your neck, this trial will help decide whether surgery or monitoring is better.
This study looks at how neck pain affects daily function in Turkish-speaking adults. It involves a simple assessment to measure neck movement and posture.
