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]

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.

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]
