The aim of our study is to evaluate the applicability, validity, and reliability of the Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT) in basketball athletes. Given that a significant proportion of injuries in basketball occur in the ankle, our study holds importance for instability assessments conducted in this population. If the Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool is found to be applicable in basketball athletes, it may be utilized in future research.

The research will be conducted to determine the effect of comfort theory-based care and virtual reality glasses on pain and comfort levels in women who have given birth to primiparous babies. The hypotheses of the study are:
H0: Comfort theory-based care and the use of virtual reality glasses have no effect on pain and comfort in the postpartum period.
H1-1: Comfort theory-based care has an effect on pain level in the postpartum period.
H1-2: Comfort theory-based care has an effect on comfort in the postpartum period.
H2-1: The use of virtual reality glasses in the postpartum period has an effect on the level of pain.
H2-2: The use of virtual reality glasses in the postpartum period has an effect on comfort.

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the effects of teriflunomide on walking and cognitive fatigability in individuals with relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS) who are starting this treatment as part of their routine medical care. The main question it aims to answer is:
Does teriflunomide reduce walking fatigability and cognitive fatigability in individuals with relapsing MS over a 12-month period? Participants who have recently started teriflunomide as part of their standard MS treatment will undergo clinical evaluations at baseline, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months. These assessments will include functional tests (6-Minute Walk Test, Symbol Digit Modalities Test, 9-Hole Peg Test, EDSS, and 25-Foot Walk Test), patient-reported outcomes (HADS, TSQM, fatigue and hair-related assessments), and routine clinical data collection (MRI and laboratory tests).
