- Abstract
Background/Objectives: Secondary problems in BPBI occur due to decreased muscle strength in the upper extremities. Comprehensive assessment methods are necessary to understand structural problems and to plan appropriate interventions in children with BPBI. We investigated the relationship between distal muscle strength, range of motion (ROM), and functionality by comparing distal muscle strength on the affected and unaffected sides in patients with BPBI who underwent shoulder tendon transfer. Methods: A total of 25 children with BPBI, 13 (52%) girls and 12 (48%) boys, aged 4–7 years (mean age: 5.98 ± 1.27 years), who had undergone shoulder tendon transfer surgery at least one year prior to the study were included. The muscle strength of the elbow, forearm, and wrist were assessed using the MicroFET
® 2 Digital Hand Dynamometer. The ROM of the elbow, forearm, and wrist were measured using the universal goniometer. The Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory (PEDI) was used for functionality assessment. Results: The strength of the elbow flexor–extensor, forearm pronator–supinator, and wrist extensor muscles on the affected side was greater than on the unaffected side in all children (p < 0.001). No correlation was found between muscle strength, ROM, and functionality in the affected extremity (p > 0.005). Conclusions: Although children with BPBI have good shoulder function after shoulder tendon transfer, structural problems in the distal joints may affect their functionality during daily life. Distal joint strengthening and ROM exercises, as well as bimanual functional activities, should be included in the rehabilitation programs of children with BPBI after shoulder tendon transfer.

- Abstract
The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory-Cognitive Functioning Scale (PedsQLTM-CFS) was developed as a brief, general, symptom-specific tool to measure cognitive function. The 6-item PedsQL™ Cognitive Functioning Scale and PedsQL 3.0 Cancer Module answered 369 parents and 330 children with 5–18 years. Parents also completed Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function (BRIEF). The PedsQL™ Cognitive Functioning Scale evidenced excellent reliability (parent proxy-report α = 0.980/Fleiss Kappa: 0.794; children self-report α = 0.963/Fleiss Kappa: 0.790). Both child self-report and parent proxy-report PedsQL™ Cognitive Functioning Scale scores exhibited significant correlations with all parent-report BRIEF summary and subscale scores (
p < .05). Both child self-report and parent proxy-report PedsQL™ Cognitive Functioning Scale scores exhibited significant correlations with PedsQL 3.0 Cancer Module total score and subscale scores (p < .05). The PedsQLTM-CFS can be used in high-risk populations with substantial to perfect reliability, both in regards to total/subcategory scores as well as in children with cancer.

Background The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory™ (PedsQL™) Neuromuscular Module (PedsQL™ 3.0 NM) evaluates the health-related quality of life in children who are affected by neuromuscular diseases. This study's aim is to assess the adaptation of the PedsQL™ 3.0 NM Turkish version (PedsQL™ 3.0 NM-TR) for 2- to 4-year-olds in spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Methods The procedure of translating the PedsQL™ 3.0 NM into Turkish was conducted in accordance with the translation methodology outlined by the PedsQL™ measurement model. The PedsQL™ 3.0 NM-TR was administered to 54 parents of children with SMA aged 2 to 4 years. The test–retest reliability and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were measured for reliability analysis. Cronbach's α coefficient and item score correlations were calculated for internal consistency. Concurrent construct validity was evaluated by Pearson correlations between the outcomes of the PedsQL™ 4.0 Generic Core Scale (PedsQL™ 4.0 GCS) and the PedsQL™ 3.0 NM. Results The PedsQL™ 3.0 NM-TR total score shows excellent reliability. The Cronbach's α values for the PedsQL™ 3.0 NM ranged between 0.871 and 0.906, while those for the PedsQL™ 4.0 GCS ranged between 0.843 and 0.897. Test–retest ICC values for the PedsQL™ 3.0 NM-TR ranged between 0.812 and 0.917, and for the PedsQL™ 4.0 GCS ranged between 0.773 and 0.899. The relationship between the PedsQL™ 3.0 NM-TR and the subscores of the PedsQL™ 4.0 GCS demonstrated a range of correlations from excellent to fair, indicating the interplay between two scales. Conclusion This study established the PedsQL™ 3.0 NM-TR as reliable, valid, and feasible for use in children aged 2 to 4 years with SMA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BRACHIAL plexus neuropathies , *ARM , *CHILDREN - Abstract
The aim of study was to investigate the relationship between upper extremity skill quality and disability inventory according to manual ability classification system in children with neonatal brachial plexus palsy (NBPP). Children with NBPP were included between the ages of 4–7.5 years. Children were classified in Manual Ability Classification System (MACS). Upper extremity skill quality was evaluated with Quality of Upper Extremity Skills Test (QUEST), disability status was assessed with Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory (PEDI). Total of 63 children (girls:31/boys:32), and mean age was 6.32 ± 1.73 years. 37 (58.73%) of children were at MACS Level-2. According to MACS classification, significant differences were noted in PEDI scores (p = 0.001), dissociated movements (p = 0.016) and grasp (p = 0.002) domains of QUEST. However, no significant differences between QUEST total scores (p = 0.079). PEDI (ROC; AuC = 0.762) and QUEST total score (ROC; AuC = 0.714) were sensitive to difference between groups across MACS in children with NBPP. The PEDI and QUEST are sensitive in distinguishing the disability of children with NBPP at different MACS levels. Assessment of children with NBPP is not limited to functionality, disability, and quality of movement, it is multidimensional. Outcomes measures studies of movement's quality in children with NBPP are needed. Functionality evaluation in children with neonatal brachial plexus palsy is multidimensional. Appropriate assessment of functionality in children with neonatal brachial plexus palsy provides accurate information about daily living activities and disability levels. We propose using Quality of Upper Extremity Skills Test (QUEST) and Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory (PEDI) to evaluate the relationship between the quality of upper extremity movements and disability in school-aged children with neonatal brachial plexus palsy at different Manual Ability Classification System (MACS) levels.

B. , Karantay Mutluay F., -Efficacy of a virtual reality-based intervention in children with medulloblastoma] ,Case Series ,Medulloblastoma - Abstract
Medulloblastoma accounts for 20% of all paediatric brain tumours as the second most frequent type. It arises from the embryonic neuroectodermal cells of the cerebellum, and itis characterized by decreased speech, mutism, cerebellar dysfunctions, and apathy.1 Children with medulloblastoma can experience a broad range of functional problems dueto the effects of the primary tumour and complications of treatment. There is a dearth of evidence on balance rehabilitation in children with medulloblastoma. Ospina et al.found no trials comparing the effects of physical therapy interventions focused on symptom relief and compensation of adverse effects of treatment in children and adolescentswith cancer. Thus, there are no standardised rehabilitation exercise programmes for children with brain tumours.2 At present, approaches to rehabilitation are frequentlyattempted in children with brain tumours. The assessment of physical activity and performance in functional skills and activities daily living of children is useful in clinicalpractice. The correct implementation of rehabilitation therapy requires accurate and reliable evaluation. This paper focuses on the effect of the Nintendo Wii Fit Plus® (NWFP),which we have and use in our clinic as an intervention to improve balance in children with medulloblastoma.

Purpose: We aimed to investigate the relationship between active rowing time, pain, function, and strength in rowers. Methods: Forty volunteer rowers from Turkish National Rowing Team participated in the study. Rowers’ gross and fine grip strength, muscle strength, and symptoms of lateral epicondylitis was evaluated by the same physiotherapist. Results: The mean age was 21.4±4.3 year of rowers. The mean results of right gross grip was 91.3±25.2 kgf, left gross grip 89.7±18.0 kgf, right fine grip 24.6±5.2 kgf, left fine grip 23.0±4.6 kgf. The manual muscle testing results were for extensor carpi radialis longus on right 5.0±0.0, on left 4.9±0.3, extensor carpi radialis brevis on right 5.0±0.0, on left 4.9±0.3, extensor pollicis longus on right 5.0±0.0, on left 4.9±0.3, extensor digitorum communis on right 4.6±0.5, on left 4.3±0.7. The Patient-Rated Tennis Elbow Evaluation pain subscale score was 10.5±6.2, function subscale score was 7.9±3.4 and total score was 18.4±8.6 points. There was statistically significant relationship between grip, muscle strength and “Patient-Rated Tennis Elbow Evaluation” scores (p>0.05). Conclusion: There was no statistically significant relationship between lateral epicondylitis symptoms, grip strength and muscle testing in rowers. The reason for this, we conclude that the number of cases was low and active rowing times of the cases are not uniformly distributed. Reducing symptoms with equipment modifications is recommended as protective rehabilitation., Amaç: Çalışmamızda kürekçilerde kürek çekme süresi ile ağrı, fonksiyon ve kuvvet ile ilişkili semptomları araştırmayı amaçladık. Yöntem: Türkiye Ulusal Kürek Takımında yer alan 40 gönüllü kürekçi çalışmaya dahil edildi. Kürekçilerin, kaba ve ince kavrama kuvvetleri, kas kuvvetleri ve lateral epikondilit ile ilişkili semptomları aynı fizyoterapist tarafından değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Kürekçilerin ortalama yaşları 21,4±4,3 yıl idi. Değerlendirme sonuçlarına göre kavrama ve kas testi ortalamaları, sağ kaba kavrama 91,3±25,2 kgf, sol kaba kavrama 89,7±18,0 kgf, sağ ince kavrama 24,6±5,2 kgf, sol ince kavrama 23,02±4,64 kgf idi. Manuel kas testi sonuçlarında, extansor carpi radialis longus için sağ 5,0±0,0, sol 4,9±0,3, extansor carpi radialis brevis için sağ 5,0±0,0, sol 4,9±0,3, extensor pollicis longus için sağ 5,0±0,0, sol 4,9±0,3, extensor digitorum communis için sağ 4,6±0,5, sol 4,3±0,7 idi. “Patient-Rated Tennis Elbow Evaluation”in iki alt başlığından ağrı 10,5±6,2, fonksiyon 7,9±3,4 ve total skoru 18,4±8,6 olarak bulundu. Çalışmamızın sonuçlarına göre kürekçilerin, kavrama kuvveti, kas testi ve “Patient-Rated Tennis Elbow Evaluation” sonuçları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ilişki bulunmadı (p>0,05). Sonuç: Kürekçilerde lateral epikondilit semptomları, kas gücü ve kavrama kuvvetleri arasında ilişki bulunmadı. Bunun nedeninin, olgu sayısının az olması ve olguların kürek çekme sürelerinin homojen dağılmaması olduğu görüşündeyiz. Ekipman modifikasyonlarıyla semptomların azaltılması koruyucu rehabilitasyon olarak önerilir.

Objectives: The Impact of Childhood Neurological Disability Scale (ICNDS) was developed by Carol Camfield in 1999. The assessment evalu-ates the effects of various conditions on overall health, relationships, social life, academic success, the child’s self-esteem, hopes for the child and caregiver, and family activities in children with epilepsy. At the end of the assessment, a visual scale is provided to orally score quality of life between 1 (very poor) and 6 (excellent). The aim of this study was to translate and adjust the ICNDS scale for use in Turkey, and to ensure the validity and reliability of the tool. Methods: The scale was translated into Turkish using the appropriate translation methods. Internal structure consistency and test-retest reli-ability were measured. Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was calculated for all of the subscales, and scale and item-total correlations were deter-mined. Test-retest reliability was assessed statistically using the Pearson correlation test for validity. The demographic data of 80 young patients with epilepsy were recorded. The scale was administered twice. Results: A total of 28 girls (35%) and 52 boys (65%) were included in the study. The mean age was 6.94±1.45 years, and the mean birth weight was 3049±520 g. A 95% confidence interval for Cronbach’s coefficient alpha ranged from 0.973 to 0.989 in the different sections of the tool, and the intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.983 (r=0.966; p=0.000). Conclusion: The Turkish version of the ICNDS is a valid and reliable measurement to assess the impact of epilepsy in children. Amaç: “Çocukluk Çağı Nörolojik Bozukluk Etki Ölçeği (ÇNBÖ)” 44 maddelik 1999’da Carol Camfield tarafından geliştirilmiştir. Değerlendirmenin skorlanması genel sağlık, ilişkiler, sosyal yaşam, okul-akademik başarı, çocuğun benlik saygısı, çocuğun kendi için umutları ve aile aktiviteleri başlıklarını içerir. Ölçeğin sonunda yaşam kalitesini sözel olarak sorgulayan 1 (çok kötü) – 6 (mükemmel) şeklinde skorlanan bir visüel analog skala yer alır. Bu çalışmada amacımız, ÇNBÖ’nün Türkçe geçerliliğini araştırarak, ülkemizdeki epilepsili çocuklarda güvenirliliğini belirlemektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Skalanın uygun validasyon adımlarını takip ederek Türkçe validasyonu yapıldı. Hastaların demografik bilgileri kaydedildi. İç yapı tutarlılığı ve test-tekrar test güvenirliliği hesaplandı. Cronbach alfa katsayıları, her maddenin tüm alt ölçekleri için ayrı ayrı ve ölçek ve madde-toplam korelasyon hesaplandı. Test-tekrar test güvenilirliği için, skala başlangıç ve iki hafta sonra aynı fizyoterapist tarafından tekrar uygulandı. Test-tekrar test güvenirliği, ‘geçerlik geçerliliği’ için Pearson korelasyon testi kullanılarak istatistiksel olarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Yirmi sekiz kız (%35), 52 erkek (%65) 80 hasta dahil edildi. Ortalama yaşları 6.94±1.45 yıl, doğum ağırlıkları 3049±520 gr idi. %95 güven aralığı değerlendirmesinde Cronbach alfa 0.973–0.989 arasında; Intraclass Correlation Coefficiancy (ICC) ise 0.983 (r=0.966; p=0.000) bulundu. Sonuç: ICNDS, Türkiye’de epilepsili çocuklarda fonksiyonların değerlendirilmesi için geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçümdür.

Chemotherapy affects the diet and feeding habits of children with cancer. They experience side effects such as vomiting, diarrhea and constipation. Feeding disorders occur during treatment period of chronic illnesses such as during the chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The purpose of this study was to determine their feeding habits of the children with cancer. We applied a questionnaire concerning the feeding habits of 21 patients with cancer who received chemotherapy. The questionnaire included where, how, how often and how much children were fed. Nine (42.9%) female patients and 12 (57.1%) male patients participated in the survey. Six (28.6%) lymphomas, 5 (23.8%) sarcomas, 3 (14.3%) kidney tumors, 3 (14.3%) neuroblastomas, 2 (9.5%) brain tumors, 1 (4.8%) acute leukemia and 1 (4.8%) bone tumor were diagnosed. There was a positive statistically significant relationship between regular vegetable consumption and the measurement of body mass indexes (r=-0.601; p<0.05). Fast food consumption at least once a week was inversely correlated with the measurements of weight and height of the patients (r=0.683; p<0.05). Body mass index was found to decrease during the acute gastroenteritis periods (r=-0.470; p<0.05). There was a positive statistically significant relationship between constipation periods and the skinfold thickness measurements (r=0.714; p<0.05). Healthy feeding is especially important for every child in this patient group. Fast food consumption is one of the factors that negatively affects the health, which adversely affects the patients in the treatment process even more adversely. In the literature, there is no protocol established for the feeding of children with cancer and no guideline has been developed as a result of these studies. Our study is planned to determine this need and it might shed light on the literature with the results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: The General Movement Assessment (GMA) is a video analysis method developed by Heinz Prechtl that examines the infant's spontaneous movements. In recent years, although many studies have been performed in preterm infants by applying GMA, few studies have shown the effects of early intervention on GMA.Aims: Current study was planned to determine the acute effects of a single-session early physiotherapy approach on preterm infants' general spontaneous movements, and to reveal the change in Motor Optimality Scale (MOS) score including FMs.Study Design: Prospective, single-blind study.Subjects: Current study was carried out with 32 preterm infants at postterm 12-16 weeks.Outcome Measures: The infants included in the study were videotaped by a physiotherapist during 10-15 min before the physiotherapy session at postterm 12-16 weeks for GMA. After a single physiotherapy session, the same physiotherapist performed the same video footage second time. A blind evaluator assessed the videos taken before and after session and scored Motor Optimality Scale (MOS).Results and Conclusions: There was no statistically significant difference between MOS sub-category and total score of the infants before and after the session (p > 0.05). According to the results of present study, a single-session early physiotherapy intervention did not have an acute effect on the spontaneous movements of preterm infants at postterm 12-16 weeks. Future studies are needed to demonstrate the short and long-term effects of early physiotherapy approaches to risky infants. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The aim of study was researching the relationship of pain in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome on Quality of Life (QoL) and upper limb functionality. METHODS: Demographical and physical measurements were performed by a physiotherapist. Pain levels were measured by Visuel Analog Scale at rest, on motion and in fatique, and the patients' results were recorded. Functionality levels were evaluated by 'Boston Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Questionnaire' and QoL by 'Short Form 12' (SF-12). Patients had 10 sessions of the physiotherapy and rehabilitation program. Assessments were repeated 1 month later. RESULTS: The mean age 49.97 ± 11.15 years of 28 patients were included. While pre- and post-treatment between pain and functionality evaluation found a significant relationship (p < 0.05); there was no significant relationship in QoL (SF-12 p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: As a result while we found statistical differences between pain and symptomatic status; there were no statistical differences between functionality, daily living activities and QoL. Appropriate rehabilitation programs should be taken into consideration to help patients obtain functionality, daily living activities and QoL. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Abstract: Complications of head and neck cancers and their treatment can lead to dysphagia. Two fifty-seven-year-old male cases, one with laryngeal cancer and one with tongue cancer, were included in the study. After 16 weeks of swallowing rehabilitation, positive changes were observed in the physical parameters, quality of life, and nutritional status of the patients. In conclusion, patients with head and neck cancer should be evaluated by physiotherapists for dysphagia. The participation and motivation of the patients in the rehabilitation program are highly effective in the outcome of the treatment., (Copyright © 2024 Copyright: © 2024 Journal of Cancer Research and Therapeutics.)
