Item Detection of Visual-Auditory Reaction Rates in Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus(2023) Bilaloglu, Melisa; Ergun, Ahmet; Altay, Feride P.; Iyidir, Ozlem T.; Kiziltan, Erhan; 0000-0002-9994-9405; 0000-0001-6029-3835; 0000-0001-5305-6807; AAL-7975-2021; AAD-6090-2021; K-7904-2019AIM:The primary purpose of our study was to understand the damage in the peripheral nerves of patients with diabetes and to determine the change in patients' reaction rates and perceptions by the age groups, duration of diabetes, fasting plasma glucose and HbA1c values, and compare these with those of the healthy individuals. METHODS: This study was carried out at the Baskent University Hospital Endocrinology and Metabolic Diseases Outpatient Clinic. A total of 64 patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and 64 healthy controls were included in the study. Finger tapping, visual, and auditory reaction time tests were performed on the subjects, respectively. The subjects' fasting plasma glucose and HbA1c levels, and the duration of their diabetes were recorded. Analyses were per -formed using the SPSS version 25. Differences were considered statistically significant when the p-value is <0.05. RESULTS: It was observed that the participants in the control group between the ages of 18-34 showed a faster reaction in all tests (p=0.01), but the difference in reaction rates in both groups decreased as the age increased. There were positive cor-relations between the duration of type 2 diabetes and the visual and auditory examination results (r= 0.69, p<0.05, r=0.52, p<0.05, respectively). There was also a positive correlation between the HbA1c (%) and the visual (r=0.97, p<0.05) examina-tion results. CONCLUSIONS: As the patients' HbA1c levels and the time spent with type 2 diabetes increased, their reaction rate and per-ception skills decreased. Especially in the early stages of the disease, cognitive decline was observed to be rapid. It is thought that diabetic control is significant.Item Evaluating the Effects of Different Cognitive Tasks on Sympathetic Responses: Implementation of a High-Precision, Low-Cost Complementary Method(2023) Karimi, Nazli; Ozgur, Sezgi Firat; Kiziltan, ErhanItem Cognitive Deterioration Following Strength Training in Adolescents(2019) Yargic, MP; Aydin, Leyla; Erdagi, Kenan; Kiziltan, Erhan; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6029-3835; AAD-6090-2021Item Polyphasic Temporal Behavior of Finger-Tapping Performance: A Measure of Motor Skills and Fatigue(2016) Aydin, Leyla; Kiziltan, Erhan; Gundogan, Nimet Unay; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6029-3835; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7784-9641; 25988674; ABC-5392-2020; AAD-6090-2021; AAK-4338-2021Successive voluntary motor movement involves a number of physiological mechanisms and may reflect motor skill development and neuromuscular fatigue. In this study, the temporal behavior of finger tapping was investigated in relation to motor skills and fatigue by using a long-term computer-based test. The finger-tapping performances of 29 healthy male volunteers were analyzed using linear and nonlinear regression models established for inter-tapping interval. The results suggest that finger-tapping performance exhibits a polyphasic nature, and has several characteristic time points, which may be directly related to muscle dynamics and energy consumption. In conclusion, we believe that future studies evaluating the polyphasic nature of the maximal voluntary movement will lead to the definition of objective scales that can be used in the follow up of some neuromuscular diseases, as well as, the determination of motor skills, individual ability, and peripheral fatigue through the use of a low cost, easy-to-use computer-based finger-tapping test.Item Laboratory Animal Tracking in Behavioral Experiments: An Alternative Low Cost Solution(2016) Kiziltan, Erhan; Aydin, Leyla; 0000-0001-6029-3835; AAD-6090-2021; ABC-5392-2020Item The Role of Finger Tapping Task in the Assessment of Central Fatigue(2016) Aydin, Leyla; Kiziltan, Erhan; Ogus, Ersin; Azizagaoglu, Bahadir; Buyukkaraman, Arda; Dogan, Selen; Erturk, Gizem; Kus, Cansel; 0000-0002-9877-421X; 0000-0001-6029-3835; ABC-5392-2020; AAJ-1058-2021; AAD-6090-2021Item Do You Model Yourself: Solid Organ Modelling Using Three-dimensional Printing Technology(2017) Tuleylioglu, Hamit Bora; Kasgoz, Inci Zuhal; Kayikcioglu, Ayca; Seferoglu, Ege; Celik, Taha Ersin; Kiziltan, Erhan; 0000-0001-6029-3835; AAD-6090-2021Item Internal Motivation Modulates Voluntary Repetitive Movements: "Ha gayret" Energy(2017) Kiziltan, Erhan; Aydin, Leyla; Zengin, H.

Fatigue phenomenon is considered to be multidimensional symptom. There have been still discussions on the origin whether it depends primarily on the intrinsic properties of muscle itself (peripheral) or the nervous system that controls muscle (central). This study aimed to investigate the effects of central fatigue on finger tapping performance and discusses the specificity of finger tapping task test as a simple diagnostic tool for fatigue. For this purpose, 27 healthy, male, right-handed volunteer performed four 20-s of finger tapping task tests. The one was for control and the other three were followed by three different central fatigue models. Temporal behavior of tapping performances were evaluated based on inter-tap intervals and the statistical comparison were made by regression analysis. The results showed that the partial evaluation of the task instead of complete test period yielded with statistically significant differences between control and fatigue models (p<0.001) and even in between fatigue models. Approximately the first 5-s of a finger tapping task consists of motor learning processes and dynamics of energy consumption from anaerobic sources therefore, reflects the central components of fatigue, dominantly. We may conclude that the temporal behavior of tapping performance following the induction of specific fatigue model may help making further discrimination for the origin of fatigue.Item Effects of Cognitive Load and State of Vigilance on Sympathetic Skin Response(2022) Karimi, Nazli; Dolu, Nazan; Kiziltan, Erhan; Sirinoglu, Tugce; Gundogan, Nimet Unay
