Article Turkish Translation and Cross-Cultural Adaptation of the Pelvic Floor Dysfunction-SENTINEL Screening Tool: A Methodological Study(Springer London Ltd, 2025) Celenay, Seyda Toprak; Dusgun, Elif Sena; Arslan, Mesut; Kaya, Derya OzerIntroduction and Hypothesis To translate and perform cultural adaptation of the Pelvic Floor Dysfunction-SENTINEL (PFD-SENTINEL) screening tool into Turkish and to establish its reliability and validity for female athletes. Methods The study included 200 female athletes (mean age 22 +/- 4 years). The translation of the PFD-SENTINEL, which comprised the symptoms related to PFD and item sections related to general risk factors and sports-related risk factors, was performed in accordance with international recommendations. The severity of PFD symptoms was assessed with the Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory-20 (PFDI-20). Psychometric analyses consisted of assessing the following: internal consistency reliability using the Kuder-Richardson-20 (KR-20) coefficient, construct validity using confirmatory factor analysis, and criterion validity. Results The reliability was acceptable for the PFD-SENTINEL items assessed using the KR-20, at 0.581, indicating moderate internal consistency. All fit indices except standardized root mean square residual indicated a perfect fit for the final models. Criterion validity was supported by positive correlations between the PFD-SENTINEL symptom score and the PFDI-20 score (r = 0.724, p < 0.001) and between the PFD-SENTINEL item score and the PFIQ-20 scores (r = 0.334; p < 0.001). Conclusions The Turkish version of the PFD-SENTINEL is a reliable and valid instrument to screen for PFD in female athletes.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms and Toileting Behaviors in Turkish Adult Women(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2023) Celenay, Seyda Toprak; Dusgun, Elif Sena; Karaaslan, Yasemin; Urus, Gulcin; Karadag, Mehmet; Ozdemir, Enver; Toprak Celenay, SeydaThis study aimed to investigate lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in Turkish adult women and to compare toileting behaviors in women with and without LUTS. This cross-sectional study was conducted in 815 women. The International Consultation on Incontinence Modular Questionnaire - Female LUTS and a toileting behaviors form, created by the authors, were used in evaluations. Nearly 50 % of the women had at least one LUTS, 45.8 % had storage symptoms, 7.4 % had voiding symptoms, and 20.2 % had incontinence symptoms. The rates of premature urination, straining during urination, delayed urination, and sitting on the toilet while urinating were higher in women with LUTS than in women without LUTS (p < .05). The rate of squatting on the toilet while urinating was lower in women with LUTS than those without LUTS (p < .05). Various LUTS were common in adult women. Some toileting behaviors such as premature urination, straining during urination, delayed urination, and sitting on the toilet while urinating were higher in women with LUTS compared to women without LUTS. Since the rate of unhealthy toilet behaviors is higher in women with LUTS, it is important to know unhealthy toilet behaviors in the management of LUTS and to organize training programs to prevent these behaviors and LUTS.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 7Respiratory Muscle Endurance in Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome(Daedalus Enterprises inc, 2022) Dusgun, Elif Sena; Aslan, Goksen Kuran; Abanoz, Ebru Seker; Kiyan, EsenBACKGROUND: An increase in respiratory work load and resistance to respiration cause a decrease in respiratory muscle endurance (RME) in patients with obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS). We aimed to evaluate and compare RME in subjects with OHS and a control group using an incremental load test and compare the RME of subjects with OHS in whom noninvasive ventilation (NIV) was and was not used. METHODS: Forty subjects with OHS (divided according to body mass index [BMI] as group I: 30-40 kg/m(2); and group II: 6 40 kg/m(2)) and 20 subjects with obesity (control group: 30-40 kg/m(2)) were included in the study. RME was evaluated using the incremental load test, and respiratory muscle strength (RMS) was evaluated using mouth pressure measurements. The 6-min walk test, Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), EQ-5D Health-Related Quality of Life Questionnaire (EQ-5D), and the Obesity and Weight-Loss Quality of Life Instrument (OWLQOL) were performed. RESULTS: RME and RMS (%) in group I were lower than the control group (P=.001, P=.005, and P=.001, respectively). No significant difference was found between the 3 groups in terms of 6-min walk distance (6MWD) percentage predicted values (P=.98). RME in the NIV user group was higher than the non-user group (P 5.006). ESS, total PSQI, and FSS scores in the control group were less than group I (P=.01, P=.009, and P=.005, respectively) and group II (P 5.01, P <.001, and P <.001, respectively). The EQ-5D scores of the control group were higher than group II only (P=.005 and P=.005, respectively). There were no differences in OWLQOL between the groups (P=.053). CONCLUSIONS: RME was low in subjects with OHS but higher in those who used NIV. The incremental load test could be performed easily and safely in a clinic setting.
