Öğe Does Total Knee Arthroplasty Positively Affect Body Static-Dynamic Balance and Fall Risk Parameters in Patients With Satisfactory Functional Scores?(Springernature, 2022) Davut, Serkan; Huzmeli, Irem; Hallaceli, Hasan; Kalacı, AydınerObjectiveThe aim of this study was to determine the balance problems and risk of falling by using digital or computerized methods in patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and have satisfactory functional scores in the early postoperative period.MethodologyA total of 31 participants (24 women, seven men; mean age: 61.93 +/- 10.75 years; range: 49-82 years) who underwent unilateral TKA were included. The fall risk was evaluated using the time up-and-go (TUG) test and computerized platforms. Patient-reported pain, stiffness, and physical functional outcome measures [Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and Oxford Knee Score (OKS)] and posture (New York Posture Rating Chart) were evaluated.ResultsBased on the WOMAC scores, there was a significant impact on self-reported pain (p`0.001), function (p=0.001), and stiffness (p=0.001) between preoperative and postoperative results. The OKS (p=0.006) and the TUG score (p=0.004) improved significantly, but the posture scores remained the same after the surgery. There was a statistically significant difference between the preoperative and third-month postoperative test results of the stabilometric test, bipedal opened eye, bipedal closed eye, monopedal right, and monopedal left foot static balance tests (p`0.05). However, the disequilibrium and equilibrium dynamic balance values remained unchanged three months after TKA.ConclusionsSatisfactory functional scores according to WOMAC or OKS were achieved in the early postoperative period. However, posture and dynamic balance problems related to falling risk continued to persist in the same period. Although the TUG test results were statistically significant, they also showed fall risk values. Fall risk and postural problems should be analyzed objectively using computerized methods. Early rehabilitation programs after TKA in elderly individuals should be designed accordingly and close attention must be paid to fall risks.Öğe Evaluation of Respiratory Function in Patients with Epileptic Seizures(Kare Publ, 2021) Gokcek, Ozden; Huzmeli, Irem; Hallaceli, Hasan; Melek, Ismet; Okuyucu, Esra E.Objectives: Respiratory problems increase the number of epileptic seizures in individuals with epileptic seizures. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the number of seizures, sleep quality, and respiratory problems by evaluating the changes in respiratory parameters of epileptic patients. Methods: Thirty individuals aged 18-40 years with generalized epilepsy were included in the study. Demographic data, number of seizures per week, pulse and blood pressure measurements, age of seizures, and body mass index were recorded. Dyspnea with mMRC; pulmonary function test; level of physical activity (PA) with International physical activity assessment survey (IPAQ); mouth pressure measuring device with respiratory muscle strength; and sleep quality with Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were evaluated. Results: Thirty patients with epileptic seizures (mean age: 26.56 +/- 6.64 years) were included in the study. The mean; % maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) 67.44, %Maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) 35.14, MIP 70.47, and MEP 62.24 cmH(2)O were found.The forced expiratory volumes/ forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) (41.01%) and FEV1 (62.50%; 2.56 L) was found lower than the standards. The positive correlation between the MEP, MIP, FEV1 (L), and severe PA was found. FVC with sitting, FEV1 (L) with moderate PA, and FEV1/FVC (%) with PSQI, sitting with educational status were positively correlated (p<0.05). There was a negative correlation between the %MIP and a systolic blood pressure; MIP, MEP (% and cmH(2)O) with diastolic blood pressure (p<0.05), and a positive correlation between the %MEP and SpO(2) (p<0.05). Conclusion: As a result, respiratory function, PA, and the sleep quality of individuals with epilepsy were affected. Respiratory muscle training, PA programs, and behavioral changes should be added to the medical treatment programs of these individuals.Öğe Evaluation of respiratory functions in patients with epileptic seizure(European Respiratory Soc Journals Ltd, 2019) Gokcek, Ozden; Huzmeli, Irem; Hallaceli, Hasan; Melek, Ismet[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Immediate Effect of Kinesiology Tape on Functionality, Static and Dynamic Balance, Exercise Capacity, and Posture in Users of High-Heeled Shoes(Amer Podiatric Med Assoc, 2023) Huzmeli, Irem; Sari, Zubeyir; Hallaceli, Hasan; Gokcek, Ozden; Davut, SerkanBackground: Using high-heeled shoes in daily life affects the stability of walking, body posture, and functionality. We aimed to determine the immediate effect of kinesiology taping (KT) on functionality, static and dynamic balance, exercise capacity, and posture in young women using high-heeled shoes.Methods: Thirty-seven women who wore high-heeled shoes (mean +/- SD age, 20.32 +/- 1.37 years) were divided into control (n = 20) and study (n = 17) groups. Both limbs of study group participants were taped medially, laterally, and dorsally with KT; no application was made to the control group. Balance (TecnoBody postural line), functionality (vertical jump and functional reach tests), exercise capacity (6-Minute Walk Test), and human body posture (New York Posture Rating Chart) were assessed.Results: Median use of high-heeled shoes was 8 hours daily, 5 days weekly, and 3 years in the study group versus 6 hours daily, 4 days weekly, and 4 years in the control group. Significance in functional reach distance was found within the control (P = .010) and study (P = .005) groups but not between the groups. Stabilometric monopedal right foot ellipse area (P = .016) and perimeter (P = .009); left foot ellipse area (P = .016), perimeter (P = .023), and front/back standard deviation (P = .018); and dynamic balance area gap percent-age (P = .030) were significant within the study group. Posture, vertical jump distance, exercise capacity, stabilometric test results, and bipedal closed-eye and opened-eye results were similar within and between groups (P > .05).Conclusions: Kinesiology taping has no immediate effect on exercise capacity, vertical jump function, posture, and bipedal static balance but can modulate functional reach function, static monopedal leg balance, and dynamic equilibrium. Further studies are recommended to investigate the additive effect of KT with high-heeled shoes and after 45 min, 24 hours, and 72 hours.

Methods: Sixty-four paired sheep humeri were harvested from 32 male sheep aged 18 months. Specimens were divided into an augmented group and non-augmented group. FASTIN RC 5-mm titanium screw anchors (DePuy Mitek, Raynham, MA) double loaded with suture material (braided polyester, nonabsorbable USP No. 2) were used in both groups. Osteoporosis was simulated by over-drilling with a 4.5-mm drill. Augmentation was performed by fixing 1 of the sutures 1.5 cm inferior to the anchor insertion site with a washer screw. This was followed by a pull-to-failure test at 50 mm/min. The ultimate load (the highest value of strength before anchor pullout) was recorded. A paired t test was used to compare the biomechanical properties of the augmented and non-augmented groups. Results: In all specimens the failure mode was pullout of the anchor. The ultimate failure loads were statistically significantly higher in the augmented group (P < .0001). The mean pullout strength was 121.1 +/- 10.17 N in the non-augmented group and 176.1 +/- 10.34 N in the augmented group. Conclusions: The described augmentation technique, which is achieved by inferior-lateral fixation of 1 of the sutures of the double-loaded anchor to a fully threaded 6.5-mm cancellous screw with a washer, significantly increases the ultimate failure loads in the over-drilled sheep humerus model. Clinical Relevance: Our technique is simple, safe, and inexpensive. It can be easily used in all osteoporotic patients and will contribute to the reduction of anchor failure. This technique might be difficult to apply arthroscopically. Cannulated smaller screws would probably be more practical for arthroscopic use. Further clinical studies are needed.
