Spine Position and Neural Sensitivity
Sciatic NervePostural Lordosis1 moreThe purpose of this research study is to see if there is a relationship between the tightness of the hamstring muscles (muscles on the back of the thighs), reported sensations related to stretch of the nerves of the lower extremity, and different positions of participants' backs. We will investigate the qualitative differences as provided verbally by participants (sensation felt at maximum knee extension angle) and quantitative differences as provided by surface electromyographic (EMG) measurements of hamstring activity and inclinometer measures of the knee angle.
The Relationship of Trunk Position Sense and Spinal Posture With Balance in Parkinson's
Parkinson DiseasePostural Kyphosis5 moreThe 4 main motor symptoms seen in Parkinson's patients are tremor, rigidity, postural instability and bradykinesia. In addition to these, another common symptom investigators encounter is balance problems. Increasing balance problems can lead to falls and fractures over time, which will further reduce the independence of Parkinson's patients who are not already active enough and reduce their quality of life. For these reasons, it is very important that balance is achieved and sustainable. It has been found in previous studies that spinal posture and body position sensation are affected in Parkinson's patients. But to our knowledge, no study has been found in the literature to address the effect these have had on balance function. In our planned study, investigators aim to investigate the effects of spinal posture and body position sensation on balance function.

Examination of Lower Urinary System Symptoms With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Duchenne Muscular DystrophyLower Urinary Tract Symptoms5 moreThe aim of this study is to examine the prevalence of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in children with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and the relationship between functional level, posture, muscle strength, pelvic floor muscle control, participation in activities of daily living, and quality of life that may be associated with these symptoms. Forty-five children with DMD between the ages of 5-18 (Age: 9.00±3.32 years, Weight: 31,10±12,59 kg, Height: 125,87±18,46 cm) and their families were included in the study. LUTS was assessed with Dysfunctional Voiding And Incontinence Scoring System, functional level with Brooke Upper Extremity Functional Classification and Vignos Scale, posture with the New York Posture Assessment Questionnaire, Baseline Bubble Inclinometer (10602, Fabrication Enterprises Inc. New York, USA) and Baseline Digital Inclinometer (12-1057, Fabrication Enterprises Inc, New York, USA), participation in activities of daily living was assessed with the Barthel Index and quality of life was assessed with the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 3.0 Neuromuscular Module. Also, using the Hoggan microFET2 (Hoggan Scientific, LLC, Salt Lake City UT, USA) device, hip flexors, quadriceps femoris muscles, shoulder flexors, elbow extensors, elbow flexors, trunk extensors and flexors were evaluated in terms of muscle strength. Evaluations were made once, and the associated factors were compared in the group with and without LUTS, and the relationship between the factors and the severity of LUTS was examined.
Correlation of Cervical Lordosis Degree Detected on Cervical X-Ray Image With Clinical, Demographic...
Neck PainCervical Lordosis2 moreIn this study we are investigating whether there is a relationship between the lordosis angle measured on cervical X-RAY images on the severity and level of cervical disc herniation detected by cervical MRI, demographic characteristics and the duration and posture of the person's daily life activities.
