    Amaç: Myers tarafından tanımlanan fasyal\rzincirlerden biri olan Süperfisyal arka zincir\r(SAZ) ayak parmaklarından başlayıp supraorbital\rçıkıntıya kadar uzanan fasyal bir\rbanttır. SAZ öne eğilme (fleksiyon) hareketini\rlimitleyen ya da işlev bozukluğunda aşırı\rarkaya eğilme hareketine (ekstansiyon) sebep\rolan, primer olarak sagital planda postürü ve\rhareketi sağlayan başlıca zincirdir. Sağ ve\rsol tarafta olmak üzere iki SAZ vardır ve iki\rtaraf arasında etkileşim olduğundan dolayı\rdengesizliklerin gözlemlenip düzeltilmesi\rgerekir. Bu çalışmada aktif komponentler\rarası etkileşimi değerlendirmek için; Mekanik\rBoyun Ağrılı bireylerde Hamstring ve\rGastroknemius kaslarına uygulayarak Foam\rRoller (FR) Self Miyofasyal Gevşetme (SMG)\rtekniğinin servikal bölge Eklem Hareket\rAçıklığı’na (EHA), ağrıya ve kas kuvvetine\rolan akut etkisi araştırılmıştır.

    Ethanolic Extract of Cotinus Coggygria Leaves Attenuates Crystalluria and Kidney Damage in Ethylene Glycol-Induced Urolithiasis in Rats
    (Kare Publishing, 2023) Gumru, S.; Ozgur, G.; Ertas, B.; Sen, A.; Eker, P.; Sener, T.E.; Sener, G.
    OBJECTIVE: Nephrolithiasis is a common cause of kidney insufficiency. Nephrolithiasis is proven to be the result of various biochemical and inflammatory processes that result in crystal formation and subsequent aggregation. Cotinus coggygria L. (CCog) is a plant extract which has been used as a Turkish remedy for kidney stones. With this study, we planned to evaluate the effects of CCog extract in ethylene glycol (EG)-induced nephrolithiasis model in rats. METHODS: The study group comprised 32 Wistar albino rats which were divided into Control (C), EG, CCog Prophylaxis (CC+EG+CC), and CCog Treatment (EG+CC) groups. Stone formation was induced by adding EG (0.75%) into rat’s drinking water. Normal drinking water was given to Control group for 8 weeks. Throughout the study period of 8 weeks, EG group was given only EG (0.75%) and CC+EG+CC group was given both EG and CCog. In EG+CC group, EG (0.75%) was given for 8 weeks whereas CCog was given for the past 4 weeks. After the 8th week, 24-h urine samples were collected. Rats were then sacrificed and kidney tissue samples were harvested. RESULTS: Metabolites (calcium, citrate) and creatinine in 24 h urine samples were decreased in CC+EG+CC and EG+CC groups. While hyperoxaluria was observed in the EG group, oxalate levels were similar to control levels in the P-CCog and C-CCog groups. The N-acetyl-β-glucosaminidase and myeloperoxidase activities were both increased in EG group and these parameters were significantly decreased on CCog treatment. CONCLUSION: We can conclude that C. coggygria extract can have beneficial effect on lowering concentration of stone-forming metabolites in urine and consequently protect renal tissues from damage due to nephrolithiasis. C. coggygria extract can be considered as a potential prophylactic and therapeutic option in high-risk stone formers. Furthermore, our data confirm ethnobotanical use of CC against nephrolithiasis. © 2023 by Istanbul Provincial Directorate of Health.

    Is Plantar Foot Sensation Affected in Patients With Gonarthrosis
    (Turkish Assoc Orthopaedics Traumatology, 2021) Tascilar, Lacin Naz; Utlu, Defne Kaya; Sayaca, Cetin; Polat, Gokhan; Kuyucu, Ersin; Erdil, Mehmet Emin; Utlu, Prof.dr. Defne Kaya
    Objective: The aim of this study was to compare pain, plantar foot sensation, postural control, fear of movement, and functional level between women patients with early-stage gonarthrosis and those with late-stage gonarthrosis. Methods: A total of 62 women with gonarthrosis were included in the study. Patients were then divided into two groups: early-stage gonarthrosis group (31 women) and late-stage gonarthrosis group (31 women) according to Kellgren Lawrence criteria. Light touch-pressure sensation (Semmes Weinstein Monofilaments), two-point discrimination sensation (esthesiometer), and vibration sensation (128 Hz diapason) were used to evaluate plantar foot sensation. Pain intensity was assessed by the numeric rating scale, postural control by Berg balance scale, fear of movement by the Tampa kinesiophobia scale, functional mobility by the Timed Up and Go test and knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score. Results: Early-stage patients were found to have higher light-touch pressure sensation on 1st metatarsal head of dominant side, 5th metatarsal head of non-dominant side, heel of non-dominant side than late stage patients. Early-stage patients had a higher sensation of vibration than late stage patients. The patients in the early stage were found to have higher two-point discrimination sensation on middle of dominant side, heel of dominant side, trans-metatarsal of non-dominant side, middle of non-dominant side, heel of non-dominant side than late stage. Postural control of early-stage patients were found to be higher than late-stage patients. Early-stage patients had lower kinesophobia and higher functional levels than late-stage patients. Conclusion: The light touch sensation, vibration sensation, and two-point discrimination deteriorated by the progression of the disease should be important criteria in patients with gonarthrosis.
