    (2022-11-25) GÜNAY YAZICI, CANAN; ÖZEN BERKOL, TUĞÇE; ÖZGÜL, BAHAR; KURU ÇOLAK, TUĞBA; SARI, ZÜBEYİR; Günay Yazıcı C., Özen Berkol T., Özgül B., Kuru Çolak T., Sarı Z.
    Purpose: It is important to assess the integrity of the balance system to predict individual balance and coordination abilities. MarBES is a device consisting of 9 led scales and 4 pressure sensor systems developed to evaluate and improve balance and coordination as a TÜBİTAK 3001 project. Weight data is estimated from pressure sensors located in 4 different corners and a score is calculated with computer software for the individual\"s center of gravity (Centre of pressure X, Y) and the amount of deviation from the center for each axis.. The aim of this study is to examine the test-retest reliability of the MarBES device. Methods: Double-leg and single-leg (eyes open-closed) tests were applied to healthy young adult participants for balance testing on the MarBES device. Weight transfer to the target surface was measured for assessment of the participants coordination performance. Participants rested for 10 minutes and all measurements were repeated by the same evaluator. The obtained data were recorded and the reliability of the measurements was evaluated with Pearson correlation analysis. Results: A total of 33 healthy young individuals (24 F; 9 M) with a mean age of 21±0.96 years were included in the study. In the correlation analysis, there was a strong correlation in all measurement parameters of the MarBES device except for X axis measurements of right leg (eyes open) and double leg eyes closed (p<0.005). Conclusion: Objective evaluation of balance and coordination parameters is very important in rehabilitation. Resulde of the study showed that the MarBES device developed by the researchers is a reliable method for the evaluation of balance and coordination in healthy young individuals.

    Effects of rigid and kinesio taping on plantar pressure distribution in patients with Lisfranc fracture sequelae.
    (2023-11-01) ÖZEN BERKOL, TUĞÇE; KURU ÇOLAK, TUĞBA; POLAT, MİNE GÜLDEN; ÖZTÜRK O., ÖZEN T., KURU ÇOLAK T., ECEVİZ E., ÇOLAK İ., POLAT M. G.
    Background: Patients with Lisfranc fractures may regain functional status after anatomical fixation, but they may experience sequelae such as flatfoot deformity and pain associated with foot pressure distribution during weightbearing. Research question:: What is the impact of Lisfranc fracture sequelae on both the injured and uninjured sides, and how does the antipronation taping affect plantar pressure distribution parameters? Methods: Twenty-six patients who underwent anatomical fixation for Lisfranc fracture, displaying pronation on the injured side based on the Foot Posture Index-6 test, as well as 15 healthy subjects, participated in this study. Plantar pressure distribution measurements were conducted during barefoot walking for the healthy subjects. In the patient group, measurements were taken under two antipronation taping conditions (kinesio and rigid taping), as well as during barefoot walking. Results: Participants who received anatomical fixation after Lisfranc fracture exhibited significant alterations in plantar pressure distribution parameters on both the injured and uninjured sides, as compared to the control group. After the application of Kinesio Taping to the injured side, there was no significant change observed in the plantar pressure distribution values (p > 0.05). The analysis of the rigid taping on the injured side revealed statistically worse values in peak pressure of the hindfoot (p = 0.027) and maximum force of the midfoot and toes (p = 0.005 and p = 0.013, respectively) compared to the injured barefoot condition. Significance: Lisfranc fracture sequelae affected plantar pressure distribution on both injured and uninjured sides. Anti-pronation taping (kinesio and rigit), commonly used for foot conditions, did not lead to foot pressure distribution becoming more similar to that of the control group.

    Mapping the most problematic functions in chronic low back pain patients: Analysis of the patient-specific functional scale
    (2023-01-01) ÖZEN BERKOL, TUĞÇE; KURU ÇOLAK, TUĞBA; ÖZEN T., KURU ÇOLAK T., ÇOLAK İ., TATARLI N.
    Aim: Difficulty in functioning is one of the reasons by patients with low back pain (LBP) seek help. The purpose was to identify the problematic functions of chronic LBP patients using the Patient-Specific Functional Scale (PSFS) based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) and investigate the related factors with the PSFS scores. Material and Methods: One-hundred LBP patients were included. The responses obtained from PSFS were linked to the ICF categories based on the linking procedure. Patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) and physical measurements were used for clinical assessment. Correlations were analyzed with Spearman’s rho correlation. Results: The identified 327 meaningful concepts were linked to 28 different 2ndlevel and 40 different 3rd level ICF categories. PSFS was found to correlate with the pain level during activity, perceived disability, and some domains of the health-related quality of life (p<0.05), while kinesiophobia and emotional status did not correlate with PSFS scores (p>0.05). Among physical tests, flexibility measurements correlated with PSFS scores (p<0.05). Discussion: Chronic LBP patients reported various functions. The content analyses showed the need for an extension of the ICF core sets for LBP. This study also revealed that not all PROMs and physical outcomes are able to reflect the difficulty level of the problematic activities. Assessment with PSFS may be beneficial for individually tailored treatment programs. Keywords Low Back Pain, ICF, PSFS, Rehabilitation

    © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Royal Academy of Medicine in Ireland.Background: Balance and coordination are important for performing activities of daily living. Balance and coordination assessment and training are used by physiotherapists in many different rehabilitation areas. Marmara Balance and Education System (MarBES) is a device developed to evaluate and improve balance and coordination. Aims: To examine the test–retest reliability of the MarBES device. Methods: Double-leg and single-leg (eyes open-closed) tests were applied to healthy young adult participants for balance testing on the MarBES device. Weight data is estimated from pressure sensors located in 4 different corners and a score is calculated with computer software for the individual’s center of gravity (center of pressure X, Y) and the amount of deviation from the center for each axis. Weight transfer to the target surface was measured for assessment of the participants’ coordination performance. Participants rested for 10 min and all measurements were repeated by the same evaluator. The obtained data were recorded and the reliability of the measurements was evaluated with Spearman’s rho correlation analysis. Results: A total of 40 healthy young individuals (28 female) with a mean age of 21 years were included. The balance assessments with MarBES showed moderate to good reliability (ICC: 0.535–0.903). The coordination assessment results showed moderate to good reliability (ICC: 0.575–0.712). Conclusions: Objective evaluation of balance and coordination parameters is very important in rehabilitation. Results of the study showed that the MarBES device developed by the researchers is a reliable method for the evaluation of balance and coordination in healthy young individuals.
