Publication Metadata only Cross-cultural translation, validity, and reliability of the Turkish version of the Back Pain Attitudes Questionnaire(ELSEVIER, 2022) ÖZGÜL, BAHAR; Tay, Hilal Ata; Ozgul, Bahar; Darlow, Ben; Sari, ZubeyirBackground: As the Back Pain Attitudes Questionnaire (Back-PAQ), a validated instrument, could be performed to evaluate biopsychosocial dimensions of back pain, it has not been translated and adapted for Turkish population. Objectives: It was aimed to translate and cross-culturally adapt the Back-PAQ (versions of 34-item, 20-item, and 10-item) into Turkish language and analyse the validity and reliability of the Back-PAQ-Turkish version (Back-PAQ-Tr). Study design: Study of diagnostic accuracy/assessment scale. Methods: The translation and cross-cultural adaptation process were carried out in several steps according to international best-practice guidelines. 173 participants with back pain were recruited. Turkish version of the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK-Tr) and Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (FABQ-Tr) were used to investigate the convergent validity. Results: Internal consistency of the Back-PAQ-Tr, Back-PAQ-Tr-20, and Back-PAQ-Tr-10 were 0.82, 0.78 and 0.68, respectively. Test-retest reliability was excellent for Back-PAQ-Tr (ICC = 0.95) and Back-PAQ-Tr-20 (ICC = 0.95), but weak for Back-PAQ-Tr-10 (ICC = 0.50). A weak correlation was found between all versions of Back-PAQ-Tr and TSK-Tr & FABQ-Tr, except for the moderate correlation between Back-PAQ-Tr-10 and TSK-Tr (r = -0.51) & the physical activity score of FABQ-Tr (r = -0.51). Back-PAQ-Tr, Back-PAQ-Tr-20, and Back-PAQ-Tr-10 accounted for 66.2%, 60.5%, and 78.2% of the variance in the data set, respectively. Conclusion: The versions of 34-item and 20-item Back-PAQ-Tr are reliable and valid questionnaire to assess Turkish populations' attitudes and beliefs regarding back pain. Since the reliability of the 10-item version was determined to be quite low, we particularly recommend the use of the versions of Back-PAQ-Tr and Back-PAQ-Tr-20.Publication Metadata only Rotator cuff disorders: A survey of current physiotherapy practice in Turkey(2023-01-01) ÖZGÜL, BAHAR; POLAT, MİNE GÜLDEN; AYBERK B., ÖZGÜL B., BURY J., POLAT M. G.Purpose: One of the most important factors guiding the physiotherapy program for rotator cuff disorders (RCD) is the clinical preferences of the physiotherapist in light of the evidence. However, the management parameters are remarkably variable between physiotherapists. It was aimed to describe the current physiotherapy practice of Turkish physiotherapists for the management of RCD and to explore its parallelism with the research evidence, and with the clinical perspective in European Countries. Methods: A cross-sectional online survey based on a clinical scenario that describes a typical patient with symptoms of RCD was conducted during July/August 2020. Descriptive responses of 104 physiotherapists were reported and analyzed by grouping physiotherapists with special interest (SI) who have further clinical experience or specialized training on RCD and no special interest (NSI). Results: The most preferred approaches were mobilization (82), scapular stabilization exercises (82), advice/education (71), and taping (62) considering all the participants. The preference rate of cold therapy (χ2=4.303, p=0.038) and isometric exercises (χ2=4.248, p=0.039) were significantly higher for physiotherapists with SI rather than NSI group. Conclusions: The most preferred management strategies of mobilization, exercise, and advice/education have been aligned with the preferences of physiotherapists from European countries and the current research evidence. However, passive modalities were also highly preferred. The management strategies differ between the physiotherapists who have SI and NSI. The high degree of practice variability and passive treatment preference of physiotherapists for the patients with RCD might be due to a lack of following the current literature evidence regularly.Publication Open Access Reliability of balance evaluation using Pedalo®-Sensomove Balance device in healthy young individuals(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.

G.Purpose: Since the use of normalized isokinetic strength was recently proposed to analyze sportive performance, it was aimed to examine relative isokinetic muscle strength as well as absolute strength in jump performance. Secondly, the investigation of the relationship between extremity-based and inter-extremity strength asymmetry and selected jump tasks was aimed. Methods: Thirty female professional volleyball players (23.70 ± 5.27 years) who has at least four training sessions per week participated to study during the pre-season period Peak torque (PT) of knee flexors and extensors at the speed of 60º/s and 180º/s were evaluated using isokinetic dynamometer. Jump height (cm) and relative power (W/kg) of vertical countermovement jump (CMJ) and squat jump (SJ) were tested by optojump photoelectric system. Results: A positive moderate correlation between PT and relative PT(rPT) at both speeds with jump height was detected (r = 0.365–0.594). It was found that jump power had a positive moderate to good correlation with PT(r = 0.557–0.731) and low to moderate correlation with rPT (r = 0.314–0.601). No significant correlation was found between hamstring/quadriceps ratio and bilateral muscle asymmetry with jump parameters (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Due to the relatively low level of relationship between normalized strength and performance, we suggest carrying out further studies examining the effects of normalized parameters on performance. Considering the findings based on strength asymmetry, the coordinated action of the relevant muscles may come to the forefront during the performance, rather than muscle strength.Publication Metadata only Kronik bel ağrısı olan bireylerde günlük yaşamda postüral alışkanlıkların incelenmesi(2022-12-16) ÖZGÜL, BAHAR; POLAT, MİNE GÜLDEN; ÖZGÜL B., TOPAL İ., POLAT M. G.Amaç: AraĢtırmanın birincil amacı kronik bel ağrısı Ģikâyeti yaĢayan bireylerin günlük yaĢamda vücut postürünü kullanım alıĢkanlıklarının araĢtırılmasıydı. AraĢtırmanın ikincil sorusu ise; bel ağrısı Ģiddetine göre postür kullanım alıĢkanlıklarının değiĢip değiĢmediği üzerineydi. Yöntem: Bel ağrısı Ģikâyeti bulunan 227 olgu (ortalama yaĢ 31,37±10,74 yıl), araĢtırmacılar tarafından hazırlanan çevrimiçi anketi tamamlamıĢtır. Anket içerisinde son bir aydır istirahat ve aktivite esnasındaki ağrı seviyesi vizuel analog skalası aracılığıyla ve günlük yaĢamda ayakta ve oturma süresi, sandalye ve koltukta oturma, yerden ağırlık kaldırma, ayakkabı giyme ve aĢağıya & yukarıya uzanma gibi aktivitelerde postür tercihleri görsel örnekler ile sorgulanmıĢtır. Bulgular: Günlük yaĢamda ayakta ve oturma süresi tüm olgular arasında %61 oranında 5 saat ve üzerindeydi. Sorgulanan tüm günlük yaĢam aktivitelerinde çoğunlukla (%65 ve üzeri) yanlıĢ postür tercih edilmekteydi. Postür kullanım alıĢkanlıklara göre ağrı Ģiddeti incelendiğinde; koltukta oturmada yanlıĢ postürü tercih edenlerin (t=- 1,674, p=,048), ve yukarı doğru uzanmada doğru postürü tercih edenlerin ağrı seviyesi daha yüksek (t=-1,844, p=,033) olarak saptandı. Sonuç: Bel ağrısı mevcut olan bireylerin günlük yaĢamda yüksek oranda yanlıĢ postürleri tercih ettiği görülmektedir. Ağrısı daha yoğun olan bireylerin yukarı uzanmada doğru postürü kullanmaları dikkat çekiciyken, daha yüksek seviyede ağrısı olan bireylerin koltukta yanlıĢ Ģekilde oturmayı tercih etmeye devam etmekteydi. AraĢtırmanın sonuçları incelendiğinde; kronik bel ağrısı olan bireylere günlük yaĢamda vücut postürünün ideal Ģekilde kullanımına dair eğitimler verilmesi gerektiğini ve bu eğitim programlarının etkinliğine yönelik ileri çalıĢmaların gerçekleĢtirilmesini önermekteyiz.Publication Open Access The relationship between diabetes knowledge level, physical activity, and quality of life in older adults(2023-08-01) KURU ÇOLAK, TUĞBA; ÖZGÜL, BAHAR; Akçay B., Kuru Çolak T., İğrek S., Özgül B., Apti A.Aim: This study aimed to examine the relationship between knowledge about diabetes, physical activity, and quality of life in older adults with type 2 diabetes. Material and Method: A total of 188 geriatric individuals with a mean age of 75.2 years were included in this study. The level of knowledge about diabetes was assessed by the Diabetes Information Questionnaire-24, the Kasari index was used to assess the level of physical activity, and quality of life was assessed by the Diabetes-39 Quality of Life Questionnaire. Results: The participants’ knowledge about diabetes, their physical activity levels according to the Kasari index, and Diabetes-39 quality of life scores were all low. It was determined that level of knowledge was significantly related to physical activity and the Diabetes-39 diabetes control subgroup score (p<0.005). There was a significant relationship between the Kasari index and Diabetes-39 quality of life total score (p<0.005). Conclusion: Level of knowledge about diabetes is related to physical activity and quality of life in elderly adults. It is important to encourage participation in training programs and increase physical activity to improve the quality of life of these individuals, who must live with this chronic disease for many years while also accompanied by geriatric symptoms.Publication Metadata only Ayak postürüne göre ayak bileği çevresi kas yapısının incelenmesi(2022-12-09) ÖZGÜL, BAHAR; DEMİRBÜKEN, İLKŞAN; POLAT, MİNE GÜLDEN; Özgül B., Aygün N. B., Demirbüken İ., Polat M. G.Amaç: Internal ve eksternal yumuşak doku yapıları, kuvvet ve dinamik destek uygulayarak ayak postürü üzerinde etkilere sahiptir. Bu çalışma kapsamında farklı ayak postürüne sahip bireylerde muskuloskeletal ultrasonik değerlendirmesiyle ile seçilen kasların yapısal karakterizasyonun gerçekleştirilmesi ve ayak bileği çevresinde yer alan majör kas gruplarının yapısal özelliklerinin karşılaştırılması amaçlandı. Yöntem: Otuz üç kadın olgunun (ortalama yaş: 21,45±1,60 yıl) dominant ayağı Ayak Postür İndeksi (APİ) uygulanarak değerlendirildi ve pron ayak postürüne sahip 15 olgu (APİ skoru = 6-10) ve normal ayak postürüne sahip 18 olgu (APİ skoru = 0-5) tespit edildi. Olguların tibialis anterior, gastrocnemius medialis ve peroneal kasların kalınlığı ve ek olarak peroneal kasların kesit alanı görüntüleri 5-13 MHz’lik bir prob ve Venue 40 ultrasonografik görüntüleme sistemi aracılığıyla toplandı. ImageJ programı kullanılarak üç farklı görüntünün ilgili yapısal özellikler analiz edildi ve ortalaması alındı. Ultrasonografik görüntüleme, uluslararası sertifikası olan ve beş yıldır muskuloskeletal ultrasonik görüntülemede tecrübesi olan fizyoterapist tarafından gerçekleştirildi. Bulgular: Her iki grupta yer alan olgular demografik özellikler açısından benzerdi (p>0,05). Pron ayak postürüne sahip bireylerin tibialis anterior (p=0,025, z=2,242), peroneus brevis (p=0,013, z=-2,459) ve total peroneus kas kalınlığının (p=0,007, z=2,639) normal ayak postürü grubundan daha fazla olduğu tespit edildi. Gastrocnemius medialis, peroneus longus kalınlığı ve peroneal kasların kesit alanı açısından gruplar arasında fark yoktu (p>0,05). Sonuç: Mevcut çalışmanın bulgularına göre, ayak postürüne göre ayak bileği hareketlerini kontrol eden tibialis anterior ve peroneal kasların kalınlığı farklılık gözlenmektedir. Daha fazla olgunun yer aldığı, ayak postürüne göre tendona aktarılan kuvvet hakkında daha detaylı bilgi verebilen penasyon açısının da değerlendirildiği ileri çalışmaların yapılması planlanmıştır.

G.Publication Metadata only The effects of onlıne yoga program on body balance and psychosocıal factors in unıversıty students(2022-12-01) ÖZGÜL, BAHAR; DEMİRBÜKEN, İLKŞAN; POLAT, MİNE GÜLDEN; ÖZGÜL B., DEMİRBÜKEN İ., ABDOLALIZADEH KHASELOUEI L., POLAT M. G.Publication Open Access Comparison of Two Different Proprioception Measurement Methods in the Shoulder Joint(2024-05-01) KILIÇ, TALHA; KURU ÇOLAK, TUĞBA; ÖZGÜL, BAHAR; Kılıç T., Kuru Çolak T., Tekin A., Özgül B., Çakmak Reyhan A.Aim: Proprioception assessment is important in shoulder rehabilitation. Proprioception sense can be evaluated with different methods in the clinical setting. The aim of this study was to compare shoulder proprioception measurements made with universal goniometer and isokinetic system. Methods: A total of 52 healthy individuals with a mean age of 24.6 ±4.29 years were included in the study. Shoulder proprioception was evaluated three times with a universal goniometer and isokinetic device at 30, 45 and 60 degrees shoulder flexion angles with eyes closed in a sitting position and mean values were recorded. Results: When the results obtained with the two measurement methods were compared, it was determined that there was a significant difference between the mean values (for 30, 45 and 60 degrees shoulder flexion angles, p=0.003, 0.005, 0.000, respectively) and there was no correlation relationship between the results of the two measurement methods (p<0.05). However, when the mean deviation from the target angle was compared with both measurement methods, it was determined that there was no significant difference between the measurement methods (p<0.05). Conclusion: The findings of this study demonstrated that when shoulder proprioception was measured using a goniometer or an isokinetic dynamometer at various angles, different values could be obtained. However, since the differences compared to the target angle are similar for the two measurement methods, both assessment methods can be used for proprioception evaluation.
