    (Aves Press Ltd, 2017) Ozkoslu, Manolya Acar; Tonga, Eda; Daskapan, Arzu; Karatas, Metin; Tekindal, M. Agah
    Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the physical activity and physical fitness levels in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) and to compare the data with those in healthy individuals. Methods: The study included 82 patients with FMS and 110 healthy individuals. In order to compare physical activity levels, all the subjects responded to the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, Long Form (IPAQ). The health-related physical fitness of the subjects was evaluated by body composition, muscle endurance, cardiorespiratory endurance, flexibility, and balance. Body mass index (BMI), sit-up test, 6-min walk test, sit and reach test, body lateral flexion, and Kinesthetic Ability Trainer 3000 (KAT 3000) were used to determine body composition, muscle endurance, cardiorespiratory endurance, flexibility, and balance, respectively. Results: Of the patients with FMS, 36.6% were inactive, 45.1% were insufficiently active, and 18.3% were active. Of the healthy individuals, 40.9% were active, 36.4% were insufficiently active, and 22.7% were inactive. Significant differences were found (p<0.05) in IPAQ walking and total scores between the groups. The sit-up test scores (p<0.001) and right and left body lateral flexion scores (p<0.001) were significantly different between the FMS patient and control groups. Conclusion: Our results showed that the physical activity and physical fitness levels of patients with FMS were lower than those of healthy individuals.

    Effects of different back health education on fear avoidance belief and occupational performance in chronic low back pain
    (Turkey Assoc Physiotherapists, 2012) Tonga, Eda; Daskapan, Arzu; Duger, Tulin; Ozunlu, Nihan
    Purpose: The aim of our study was to compare the effects of three different back education methods on fear avoidance belief and occupational performance in patients with low back pain. Methods: Sixty patients with chronic low back pain were included in study. Patients were divided into three groups with simple random method. Two sessions of back health education was given to patients in the education group. A detailed back education booklet was given to the patients in the booklet group. Verbal advice was given to the patients in the advice group. Fear Avoidance Belief Questionnaire was used to assess the fear avoidance belief in daily activities and occupational activities. Patient's activity limitations were evaluated with Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire. Activity performances and satisfaction were determined with Canadian Occupational Performance Measurement. Results: There was a difference between the three groups in regards to fear avoidance belief and activity performances (p<0.001). Activity performance increased more and fear avoidance beliefs decreased more in education and booklet group than in group who was given advice (p<0.05). It was determined that improvement on activity performance and fear avoidance belief scores was statistically better in booklet group than education group (p<0.05). Conclusion: According to the results of this study, decreasing effects of seminar or booklet education on fear avoidance belief and increasing effects on activity performance were clearly seen. It is thought that long term effects should be investigated in the study in which short term effects of different education methods investigated in chronic low back pain.

    Effects of two different quadriceps strengthening exercise approaches on cardiovascular fitness in healthy female subjects: A single blind randomized study
    (Ios Press, 2012) Daskapan, Arzu; Tonga, Eda; Duruturk, Neslihan; Tuzun, Emine Handan
    Objective: There are limited number of documents showing the relations between cardiovascular fitness and muscle strength. This study aimed to determine the effects of two different quadriceps strengthening exercise approaches on cardiovascular fitness in healthy female subjects. Methods: Forty female university students participated in this study on a voluntary basis. The participants were randomly assigned to do either isokinetic exercise (IE) or progressive resistive exercise (PRE) in two different groups. Both training schemes were performed three times a week for a period of two weeks. The subjects were given a maximum symptom limited exercise test on a treadmill before and after (each) training period. Results: Total exercise duration increased and Borg scale level decreased significantly after training in the two groups (p < 0.05). Maximal systolic blood pressure, recovery heart rate, and recovery diastolic blood pressure decreased significantly in the IE Group (p < 0.05). Resting and recovery systolic blood pressure decreased significantly in the PRE Group (p < 0.05). Compared to PRE group, improvement for Borg Scale level, recovery heart rate and recovery diastolic blood pressure were more obvious in IE Group (p < 0.05). Conclusions: This study demonstrated that both quadriceps strengthening methods have displayed improvements in cardiovascular fitness. Further research with larger sample groups may need to be carried out.

    Fibromyalji Sendromlu Hastalar ile Sağlıklı Bireylerin Fiziksel Aktivite ve Fiziksel Uygunluk Düzeyi Farkları
    (2017) Özköslü, Manolya Acar; Tonga, Eda; Daşkapan, Arzu; Karataş, Metin; Tekindal, M. Agah
    Amaç: Çalışmanın amacı fibromyalji sendromlu (FMS) hastalarda fiziksel aktivite ve fiziksel uygunluk düzeyini belirlemek ve sağlıklı bireylerin verileri ile karşılaştırmaktır. Yöntemler: Çalışmaya 82 fibromyalji hastası ve 110 sağlıklı olgu dahil edildi. Fiziksel aktivite düzeyini karşılaştırmak için tüm olgular Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi'nin (UFAA) uzun formatını cevaplandırdılar. Olguların sağlıkla ilişkili fiziksel uygunluk düzeyini belirlemek için vücut kompozisyonu, kassal endurans, kardiorespiratuar endurans esneklik ve denge ölçümleri değerlendirildi. Vücut kitle indeksi, mekik testi, 6 dakika yürüme testi, otur-uzan test, gövde lateral fleksiyon, KAT 3000 testleri sırasıyla vücut kompozisyonu, kassal endurans, kardiorespiratuar endurans, esneklik ve dengeyi belirlemek için kullanıldı.Bulgular: FMS'li hastaların %36,6'sı aktif, %45,1'i minimal aktif, %18,3'ü aktifti. Sağlıklı olguların %40,9'u aktif, %36,4'ü minimal aktif, %22,7'si inaktifti. Gruplar arasında UFAA yürüme ve toplam skoru arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulundu (p<0,05). Sağlıkla ilişkili fiziksel uygunluk düzeyinde mekik testi (p<0,001) ve her iki gövde lateral fleksiyonu (p<0,001) skorunda fibromyalji ve kontrol grubu arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark gözlendi. Sonuç: Sonuçlarımız FMS'li hastaların fiziksel aktivite ve fiziksel uygunluk düzeyinin sağlıklı bireylere göre daha düşük olduğunu gösterdi
