    Access to digital health information has increased for women diagnosed with breast cancer; however, searching, understanding, and interpreting this information requires adequate e-health literacy. This study aimed to determine the e-health literacy levels of women diagnosed with breast cancer and to examine the relationship between e-health literacy and selected sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. In addition, women's awareness of e-health and telerehabilitation concepts, as well as their internet use patterns, were evaluated to inform future digital health initiatives. Data were collected through face-to-face and online methods using an Information Form to assess participant characteristics and the E-health Literacy Scale to measure e-health literacy. The study included 336 voluntary Turkish-speaking women aged 18 years and older diagnosed with breast cancer.The median e-health literacy score on the E-health Literacy Scale was 25 (range: 8-40), with a mean score of 24.6 +/- 7.62. E-health literacy levels were significantly associated with age, educational level, time since diagnosis, and awareness of e-health and telerehabilitation concepts (p < .05), with lower scores observed among older women. In multivariable linear regression analysis, these sociodemographic and care-related factors jointly explained approximately 47% of the variance in e-health literacy levels. Overall, the findings indicate that women with breast cancer in Türkiye have limited awareness of e-health and telerehabilitation concepts, and that e-health literacy levels are significantly associated with age, educational level, time since diagnosis, and awareness of telerehabilitation. These results underscore the importance of developing targeted digital health education initiatives and awareness-based interventions to enhance e-health literacy and support equitable access to digital health services among breast cancer survivors.

    Determination of Post-Earthquake Trauma Level and Investigation of the Relationship with Physical Activity Status
    (Turkish Physiotherapy Association, 2025) Tosun, Anil; Yılmaz, Nergis; Luque, Demet Tekın De Las Penas; Tekin De Las Penas Luque, Demet
    Amaç: Çalışmanın amacı; 06 Şubat 2023’te meydana gelen Pazarcık-Elbistan merkezli depremler sebebiyle kişilerde oluşan travma düzeyinin, kişinin fiziksel aktivite durumu ile ilişkisini incelemektir. Aynı zamanda, kişilerde deprem sonrası ağrı varlığının sorgulanması ve bu durumun travma düzeyi ile ilişkisini ortaya koymaktır. Yöntem: Veriler çevrimiçi olarak Google formları aracılığıyla toplandı, 18-65 yaş arası 388 gönüllü katılımcı (299 kadın, 89 erkek) çalışmaya dahil edildi. Katılımcıların genel özelliklerini belirlemek için “Sosyodemografik Bilgi Formu”, travma düzeyini değerlendirmek için “Deprem Sonrası Travma Düzeyini Belirleme Ölçeği” (DSTDBÖ) ve fiziksel aktivite durumlarını belirlemek için “Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi Kısa Formu” (IPAQ-KF) kullanıldı. Bulgular: Deprem bölgesinde bulunma durumuna göre DSTDBÖ genel puan ortalamaları arasında anlamlı fark saptandı (p<0,001). Deprem bölgesinde bulunan 126 kişinin DSTDBÖ genel puan ortalaması 57,66±19,87 iken, bölgede bulunmayan 262 kişinin ortalaması 49,00±18,49 olarak bulundu. Spearman korelasyon analiziyle deprem bölgesinde olan ve olmayan bireylerin IPAQ-KF toplam puanları, DSTDBÖ alt faktör ve toplam puanları arasındaki ilişki incelenmiş olup sadece “Bilişsel Yapılandırma” alt faktörü ile IPAQ-KF toplam puanları arasında anlamlı bir ilişkiyi yansıtmayan negatif zayıf ilişki bulundu (deprem bölgesinde olanlar için Spearman korelasyon katsayı değeri =-0,18, p=0,042). Ve deprem sonrası ağrı yaşayan bireylerin DSTDBÖ puanları, ağrı yaşamayanlardan daha yüksek olarak saptandı (p=0,000). Sonuç: Bu çalışma ile deprem sonrası travma düzeyinin, fiziksel aktivite ile negatif ilişki gösterdiği belirlendi. İnaktif bireyler daha yüksek travma düzeylerine sahipken, minimal aktif bireylerde travma düzeyleri daha düşük bulundu. Bu bulgular, deprem sonrası fiziksel aktivitenin artırılmasının travma düzeylerini azaltmada etkili bir strateji olabileceğini göstermektedir. Bu alanda daha fazla araştırma, eğitim ve proje çalışmalarının yapılması gerekmektedir.

    (Marmara Univ, inst Health Sciences, 2022) Eroglu, Nermin; Tosun, Anil
    Objective: Multiple sclerosis (MS)is among the most influential environmental factors. Quarantine days during Covid-19 outbreak can cause conditions such as anxiety, isolation stress, financial and long-term economic stress, including health concerns.The descriptive study was planned and applied with the aim of examining the impacts of Covid-19 pandemic on the styles of coping with stress of individuals with multiple sclerosis. Methods: The study was carried out on 246 volunteer individuals during April2020-May2020 following the approval of the Turkey MS Association and the briefing provided to the individuals.The data were acquired via Personal Information Form and The Styles of Coping with Stress Scale. Results: The mean age of individuals with MS was 39.41 +/- 9.06 years. Statistically significant increase was found in the sub-dimensions of optimistic and helpless approach with gender, submissive approach with marital status, helpless and submissive approach with education status, helpless, submissive and seeking social support sub-dimensions with working status (p<0.0, p<0.05). Conclusion: It was determined that individuals with MS use the helpless approach and submissive approach most frequently in coping with stress during the Covid-19 pandemic.It was determined that those living with their families mostly use the optimistic approach and selfconfident approach.It is thought that MS associations will be effective in coping with stress in reducing symptoms and social and physical support through informative meetings, home visits, psychotherapies, yoga and organized trainings.
