Our aim was to investigate the relationship between gross motor function and health status in children with CP based on clinical types and functional levels.
 Methods: This cross-sectional study included 75 children with CP (mean age ± SD 7.59 ±3.86 years). The 66-item Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-66) was used to measure the gross motor functions of children. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) CP Core Set was used to assess the general health status of children including body functions and structures, activity and participation, and environmental factors for obtaining a holistic framework.
 Results: Of the children, 61 (81.3%) were spastic and 14 (18.7%) were dyskinetic. Children were divided into 3 groups based on the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) level as mild (levels 1-2, n=28), moderate (level 3, n=16), and severe (levels 4-5, n=31).

The lack of exercise habits could increase the incidence of unfavorable sleep disorders with depression and fatigue. The aim of this non-randomized controlled study was to investigate the considerable effects of calisthenic exercises on sleep disorders, depression, and fatigue in elder adults. Methods: The study was conducted at Pamukkale University and Hatay Mustafa Kemal University. Sixty-two individuals participated in the study between May 2018-October 2019. While the Calisthenic Group (n=32) performed calisthenic exercises for 30-45minutes/session and 3days/6weeks, and Control Group (n=30) did not performed. Fatigue, depression, and sleep quality levels were assessed using the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), Beck Depression Scale (BDI), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), respectively. Results: Statistically significant differences among FSS (p≤0.001), BDI (p=0.022), and PSQI (p=0.006) scores were found in the Calisthenic Group after the intervention, while there were differences only in fatigue (p=0.035) and total sleep quality (p=0.035) for the Control Group. We found that the Calisthenic Group’s PSQI latency, PSQI sleep duration and PSQI total scores decreased in post-treatment. Both fatigue severity (p≤0.001) and depression levels (p≤0.001) were highly correlated with PSQI-subscores, except for sleep duration subscore (FSS p=0.934, BDI p=0.276). Conclusion: Regular calisthenic exercise programs may enable elders to better manage changes in the aging process. Physiotherapists should consider including calisthenic exercises in the rehabilitation programs for its effects on all parameters of sleep, fatigue, mental and emotional status in this population.","PeriodicalId":289913,"journal":{"name":"Türk Fizyoterapi ve Rehabilitasyon Dergisi","volume":"153 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139342077","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Evidence has shown that PST and the presence of GIRD increase subacromial pain syndrome. Posterior shoulder stretching exercises are used to improve posterior shoulder tightness. Muscle Energy Techniques (MET) are a long-established and effective approach, and the number of studies investigating the effects of MET on GIRD has been increasing in recent years. Despite the use of static stretching techniques in training, GIRD continues to be common in athletes performing overhead activities. Therefore, revealing the effects of MET on GIRD might be effective in determining the type of stretching most appropriate for preventing GIRD in athletes.
 Methods: We performed a systematic literature review, assessing the relevance of studies for inclusion and selecting the studies from appropriate electronic databases (CINAHL, Cochrane Review, Pubmed (MEDLINE), Web of Science as well as Google Scholar©).
 Results: The present systematic literature search generated 178 relevant citations and 8 articles were included in the final review. As an outcome measure, GIRD was assessed in all eight, whereas PST was assessed in four.
 Conclusion: According to this systematic literature review, MET is effective in the improvement of GIRD and PST in overhead athletes.

Technological analysis methods can now be used to evaluate the writing skills of school- age children with low vision. The aim of this case- control study is to analyse the writing skills of children with low vision using a computerized program and to compare their results with those of their typically developing peers with normal vision. Methods: Eighteen school-age children with low vision and 24 children with typical visual development (n=42) participated in the present study. Each of the children wrote a 20-word sample standard sentence; the samples were then analysed using the MovAlyzR (Neuroscript LLC, USA) computerized analysis system (version 6.1) to describe the spatial and dynamic characteristics of their writing. Results: The mean age of the children with low vision were 9.72±2.11 years and the control group were 10±2.02 years. Statistically significant differences were found in the handwriting samples in terms of the average width of the letters, horizontal start, vertical start and length, respectively (p=0.000, p= 0.010, p=0.000, p=0.030). It was found that the results obtained in children with low vision were higher in these variables. This result is in favor of typically developing children with normal vision. Conclusion: The results indicated that the school- age children with low vision wrote letters of larger dimensions than their peers with typical vision. This may be due to the difficulty of discerning the spatial dimensions of handwritten letters or because of the diminished visual acuity in children with low vision.","PeriodicalId":289913,"journal":{"name":"Türk Fizyoterapi ve Rehabilitasyon Dergisi","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139350295","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

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.","PeriodicalId":289913,"journal":{"name":"Türk Fizyoterapi ve Rehabilitasyon Dergisi","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136017098","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
