Investigation of the reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the Comprehensive Coordination Scale in patients with Parkinson's disease.

Objective: The Comprehensive Coordination Scale (CCS) is a valid, reliable scale for evaluating motor coordination, described as the ability to produce context-dependent movements of multiple body parts in both spatial and temporal domains in patients with chronic stroke. The aim of this study was to develop a Turkish version of the CCS that can be used to evaluate coordination in Parkinson's disease patients and to test its validity and reliability.

Methods: Thirty-four patients with Parkinson's disease (18 females, 16 males) with a mean age of 67.

Effect of nusinersen treatment on quality of life and motor function in adult patients with spinal muscular atrophy.

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of 4 loading doses of nusinersen on motor function and quality of life (QoL) in adult patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Twenty-one adult patients with genetically confirmed SMA who were treated with 4 loading doses of nusinersen were included in this study. All patients were evaluated with the Medical Research Council (MRC) scale, the Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale Expanded (HFMSE), and the Short Form Survey-36 (SF-36) at baseline (V1) and before the first nusinersen maintenance treatment, which was at the 15th month of treatment (V2).
