The agreement between face-to-face and tele-assessment of balance tests in patients with multiple sclerosis.

Background: To investigate the reliability of balance tests administered using a tele-assessment method in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS).

Methods: The participants were assessed both online and face-to-face. The assessments were performed synchronously by two physiotherapists.

The preliminary results of physiotherapy scoliosis-specific exercises on spine joint position sense in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: A randomized controlled trial.

Background: It has been observed that there are difficulties in maintaining spinal harmony in the absence of proprioceptive information, which has an important role in achieving postural control in scoliosis. One of the tests used to evaluate proprioceptive mechanisms is joint position reproduction.

Objectives: The main aim of our study was to investigate the effect of physiotherapy scoliosis-specific exercise (PSSE) on spine joint reposition (JR) sense.

The effectiveness of synchronous tele-exercise to maintain the physical fitness, quality of life, and mood of older people - a randomized and controlled study.

Purpose: The study investigates the effects of synchronized tele-exercise on physical fitness level, quality of life (QoL), loneliness and mood of older people individuals who experience social isolation during the coronavirus pandemic.

Methods: A randomized controlled study was performed with 30 volunteers. A synchronized online exercise protocol was applied to the study group (SG) (n = 15; 10 females, 5 males) (mean age 67.

Comparing the Cognitive Functioning Effects of Aerobic and Pilates Exercises for Inactive Young Adults: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Aerobic exercises (AE) have been found to have short-term positive effects on certain aspects of cognitive functioning. Pilates exercises (PE) may have similar benefits. In this randomized controlled study, we compared the effectiveness of PE and AE on participants' cognitive functions.

The evaluation of static and dynamic postural balance in children with thoracic hyperkyphosis.

Background: To investigate how postural balance is affected by thoracic hyperkyphosis compared to healthy children and elucidate the relationship between balance and strength and tightness.

Methods: A cross-sectional analysis using standardized measures to identify balance function in children with thoracic hyperkyphosis (n = 31) and compare age-matched healthy children (n = 31). Primary outcome measurements were performed for the static and dynamic balance with the biodex balance system and limits of stability with the functional reach test.

Effects of matrix rhythm therapy on primary lymphedema: a case report.

[Purpose] Primary lymphedema occurs because of genetic predisposition and developmental insufficiency of the lymphatic system. Matrix Rhythm Therapy was developed as an external and dynamic method that supplies rhythmic mobilization of the fluids in tissues. The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of Matrix Rhythm Therapy in primary lymphedema.
