    The Effects of Diaphragmatic Breathing Exercises on Individuals with Premature Ejaculation: A Randomized Controlled Trial
    (Oxford University Press, 2025) Erkut, Umit; Karagözoğlu Coşkunsu, Dilber; Erkut, Kubra; Özden, Ali Veysel
    Background There are no standardized, evidence-based rehabilitation protocols for premature ejaculation (PE) which hinders effective management, the development of validated patient-reported outcomes, regulatory oversight, and the potential benefits of targeted interventions. Aim To investigate the effect of diaphragmatic breathing exercises (DBE) on PE. Methods Sixty-two participants with PE were randomly assigned to Group I (n = 31) or Group II (n = 31). Both groups received behavioral therapy (BT) and pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) twice daily, three days a week, for eight weeks. Additionally, Group I recieved DBE twice daily, every day, for eight weeks. Intravaginal ejaculation latency time (IELT) was calculated with a stopwatch, at the end of the 8th week (post-treatment), and at 1-year follow-up. Pelvic floor muscle (PFM) strength and endurance were evaluated with ultrasound, and changes in the in the autonomic nerves system (ANS) parameters (including the root mean square of successive differences [RMSSD], proportion of NN50 [PNN50], low-frequency [LF] power, and high-frequency [HF] power) were evaluated with an Elite HRV device at pre-treatment and post-treatment by a blinded assessor. Outcomes Primary outcome measurements were IELT, PFM strength and endurance, and changes in ANS paramaters. Results The study was completed by 29 participants (mean age = 31.4 ± 6.5 years) in Group I and 30 (mean age = 31.3 ± 7.6 years) in Group II. At post-treatment, all outcome measures showed significant improvements in both groups (P <.001 for all). Compared to Gropu II, Group I showed significantly greater improvements in IELT(P=0.12), RMSDD (P<.001), PNN50 (P=.003), LF Power (P<.001), HF Power (P=.003), strength(P<.001), and endurance (P<.001). The median IELT increase from baseline to post-treatment was 283 seconds (range: 84-870; 900%) in Group I and 204 seconds (range: 44- 581; 690%) in Group II. While IELT declined significantly from post-treatment to 1-year follow-up in Group II, no statistically significant change was found in Group I. Clinical Implications The effect of DBE on the ANS may help regulate the ejaculatory reflex. Strengths and Limitations This is the first study to apply breathing exercises with BT and PFMT in men with PE. Limitations include the lack of exercise adherence records beyond 8 weeks and the estimation-based IELT measurement at baseline. Conclusion Adding DBE, to BT and PFMT, yields better results in IELT (at 8 weeks and 1 year) and inreases PFM strength and endurance of PFM (at 8 weeks) in men with PE. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Validity and Reliability of a New Method To Measure Cervical Proprioception
    (Georg Thieme verlag Kg, 2022) Koseoglu, Aygul; Coskunsu, Dilber Karagozoglu; Mutlu, Ebru Kaya
    Objective An accurate and reliable measurement of proprioception is important in the evaluation of the cervical. The aim of this study is to investigate the validity and reliability of a new method using Horizontal Plane Target Platform (HPTP) to assess Head Repositioning Accuracy (HRA) for Cervical Proprioception (CP). Methods HRA values of 86 healthy volunteers (21.01 +/- 2.16 yrs.) were measured through AOS PropPoint laser apparatus device on HPTP, Frontal Plane Target Platform (FPTP), and also CROM device to assess test-retest reliability and validity. Results The test-retest measurements of HPTP reliability was (ICC (left) =0.69, ICC (right) =0.74; SEM (left) =0.28, SEM (right=) 0.36; MDC (left) =1.85, MDC (right) =2.02 95%CI) were moderate for both side. Correlation with the CROM device results was moderate for both side (r=0.75 for left size, r=0.83 for right side), and the absolute values demonstrate concordance between results using the Bland-Altman method. Conclusions HRA measurements performed with a laser apparatus on HPTP which we developed can be used as an alternative method in CP evaluation.

    Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy Versus Graston Instrument-Assisted Soft-Tissue Mobilization in Chronic Plantar Heel Pain a Randomized Controlled Trial
    (American Podiatric Medical Association, 2022) Pisirici, P.; Cil, E.T.; Coskunsu, D.K.; Saylı, U.; Subasi, F.
    Background: Although there are studies showing that extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) and instrument-assisted soft-tissue mobilization methods are effective in chronic plantar heel pain (CPHP) treatment, there is a need for studies comparing these techniques. We compared the effectiveness of ESWT versus instrument-assisted soft-tissue mobilization using Graston Technique (GT) instruments in addition to stretching exercises (SEs) in CPHP. Methods: Sixty-nine patients were randomly assigned to three groups: ESWT+SEs (group 1), GT+SEs (group 2), and SEs only (control group) (ratio, 1:1:1). The SEs, twice daily for 8 weeks, were standard for all. Group 1 received low-intensity ESWT; in group 2, GT was the selected method. Visual analog scales (for initial step and activity pain), the Foot Function Index (FFI), the 12-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12), and the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia were used pretreatment, posttreatment, and at 8-week and 6-month follow-up. Results: Visual analog scale and FFI scores improved posttreatment and during follow-up in all groups (P < .001). Although effect sizes were greater in groups 1 and 2 than in the control group in initial step pain posttreatment and at 8-week follow-up, group 2 had the highest effect size at 6 months. Mean SF-12 scores in groups 1 and 2 improved on the post-treatment assessment. Furthermore, group 2 showed significant improvements in FFI scores compared with the other groups at 6-month follow-up (F = 6.33; P = .003). Conclusions: Although ESWT+SEs and GT+SEs seem to have similar effects on initial step pain posttreatment and at 8-week follow-up, GT+SEs was found most effective for improving functional status at 6 months in the management of CPHP. © 2022, American Podiatric Medical Association.

    (Hanley & Belfus-elsevier inc, 2023) Ogul, Ozden Erkan; Coskunsu, Dilber Karagozoglu; Akcay, Sumeyye; Akyol, Kubra; Hanoglu, Lutfu; Ozturk, Necla
    Objective: To investigate the effect of electromyography (EMG)-driven robotic therapy on the recovery of the hand in a stroke case lasting 9 years.Case: An 18-year-old patient with hemiparesis due to the ischemic lesion was admitted to our clinic with hand impairment. Fifteen sessions (5 weeks x 3 times) of robotic rehabilitation were applied with the Hand of Hope. Average EMG (mV) of flexor digitorum superficialis (FDS) muscle, average force (N) and the rate of force development (RFD)(N/s) were also assessed before and after the treatment following the 5th and 10th sessions and at the end of treatment. Also, Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Upper Extremity Scale (FMU-UE), Motor Activity Log (MAL), Canadian Occupational Performance Score (COPM) and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) were used for assessment before and after the treatment.Results: The average EMG measured from FDS increased from 0.093-0.133 mV. The average force and average RFD increased from 45.6-97.7 and from 135.6-172.6 respectively. While affected and/or unaffected side force ratio increased dramatically from 54%-82%, the FMA-UE score increased from 56-59. The MAL quality of use score increased from 3.93-4.13. Performance and satisfaction scores of COPM changed from 5.25-7.25 and 4.5-8.25 respectively. VAS score for fatigue changed from 6 to 4.Discussion: The improvement achieved 9 years later with 15 sessions of rehabilitation suggests that im-provement may be possible for chronic stroke patients.(c) 2021 Elsevier Inc.

    (2024) Tosun, Anıl Tekeoğlu; Eryıldız, Ezgi; Eryıldız, Ezgi; Aklar, Ayça; Coşkunsu, Dilber Karagözoğlu; Yılmaz, Nergis; Yılmaz, Nergis
    Amaç: Üriner inkontinans (Üİ), Multipl Skleroz (MS) hastalarında yaygın görülen ve günlük aktiviteleri olumsuz etkileyen bir semptomdur. Bu çalışmada MS tanılı bireylerde Üİ şikayetleri ile günlük yaşam aktivitelerini gerçekleştirme becerisi arasındaki ilişkinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Araçlar ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya MS tanılı ve Üİ’ye sahip, yaş ortalaması 42.06±1.42 olan 45 katılımcı dahil edildi. Katılımcı verileri çevrimiçi bir platform olan Google Forms aracılığıyla toplandı. Uluslararası İdrar Kaçırma Konsültasyon Sorgulaması-Kısa Form (ICIQ-SF) Üİ şikayetlerini, İnkontinans Etki Sorgulaması (IIQ-7) anketi ise günlük yaşam aktiviteleri üzerindeki etkiyi değerlendirmek için kullanıldı. ICIQ-SF ile IIQ-7 fiziksel aktivite, sosyal aktivite, sosyal ilişkiler ve duygusal sağlık alt skorları ve total skoru arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirmek için Spearman korelasyon analizi yapıldı. Bulgular: Katılımcıların %26.7'si günde 8 kereden fazla idrara çıkmaktaydı. Mesane günlüğü hakkında bilgi sahibi olmayan bireylerin oranı %75.6 ve işemeye başlamakta zorluk çekenlerin oranı ise %44.4'tü. ICIQ-SF ile IIQ-7 fiziksel aktivite ve sosyal aktivite alt boyutları ile total skoru arasında güçlü ilişki bulurken (sırasıyla rho=0.64, p<0.001; rho=0.53, p<0.001; rho=0.56, p<0.001), sosyal ilişkiler ve duygusal sağlık alt boyutları arasında orta derecede ilişki bulundu (sırasıyla rho=0.45, p=0.002; rho=0.38, p=0.009). Sonuç: Üİ semptomlarının MS'li bireylerin günlük aktiviteleri üzerindeki olumsuz etkileri göz önüne alındığında, Üİ için kapsamlı bir değerlendirme yapılarak MS’lilerin, Üİ’nin şiddetine, tipine ve sıklığına göre uyarlanmış bir rehabilitasyon programına dahil edilmesi önemlidir.

    The Association of Demographic, Psychological, Social and Activity Factors With Foot Health in People With Plantar Heel Pain
    (Wiley, 2024) Gulle, Halime; Morrissey, Dylan; Tayfur, Abdulhamit; Coskunsu, Dilber Karagozoglu; Miller, Stuart; Birn-Jeffery, Aleksandra V.; Prior, Trevor
    Background: Plantar Heel Pain (PHP) can be a debilitating musculoskeletal condition from which only 50% recover within a year due to poor understanding of the mechanisms explaining severity and predicting outcomes specific to PHP. Objective: To explore associations between biopsychosocial variables and the severity of people with PHP. Secondly, to determine what combination of self-reported factors distinguishes people with PHP from other foot pain (OFP). Methods: We collected data from 235 participants, including 135 (%57) PHP (age 44 +/- 12 years, 66% female) and 99 OFP (%43) (age 38 +/- 11 years, 57% female) using 5 demographic, 13 biomedical, 8 psychological, 3 social and 8 activity-related factors. These were tested in linear and logistic regression models. Results: Quality of life (QoL) (beta = 0.35; p < 0.001), education (beta = -0.22; p = 0.003), gender (beta = -0.20; p = 0.007), morning pain duration (beta = -0.18; p = 0.01) and disease duration (beta = -0.15; p = 0.040) were significantly associated with severity of PHP. The second model, without QoL, showed that having sensitisation (beta = -0.18; p = 0.002) and a higher level of morning pain (beta = -0.20; p = 0.01) are associated with severity. The logistic regression results revealed that people with PHP tend to have a systemic disease (OR = 3.34; 1.53-7.76), express more kinesiophobia (OR = 1.02; 1.01-1.14), are less likely to have previous injuries (OR = 0.40; 0.19-0.81), worse morning pain (OR = 1.02; 1.01-1.03) and standing pain (OR = 2.60; 1.39-4.87) compared to people with OFP. Conclusions: People with PHP have higher associated levels of a range of psychological, social and activity related factors than people with OFP. The findings highlight the importance of considering psychosocial assessments alongside physical examination.

    Effects of Robotic Rehabilitation on Recovery of Hand Functions in Acute Stroke: a Preliminary Randomized Controlled Study
    (Wiley, 2022) Coskunsu, Dilber Karagozoglu; Akcay, Sumeyye; Ogul, Ozden Erkan; Akyol, D. Kubra; Ozturk, Necla; Zileli, Fusun; Krespi, Yakup
    Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of EMG-driven robotic rehabilitation on hand motor functions and daily living activities of patients with acute ischemic stroke. Materials & Method A preliminary randomized-controlled, single-blind trial rectuited twenty-four patients with acute ischemic stroke (<1 month after cerebrovascular accident) and randomly allocated to experimental group (EG) and control group (CG). Neurophysiological rehabilitation program was performed to both EG and CG for 5 days a week and totally 15 sessions. The EG also received robotic rehabilitation with the EMG-driven exoskeleton hand robot (Hand of Hope (R), Rehab-Robotics Company) 15 sessions over 3 weeks. Hand motor functions (Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremity (FMA-UE) and Action Research Arm Test (ARAT)), activities of daily living (Motor Activity Log (MAL)), force and EMG activities of extensor and flexor muscles for the cup test were evaluated before treatment (pretreatment) and after the 15th session (posttreatment). Results Eleven patients (59.91 +/- 14.20 yr) in the EG and 9 patients (70 +/- 14.06 yr) in the CG completed the study. EG did not provide a significant advantage compared with the CG in FMA-UE, ARAT and MAL scores and cup-force and EMG activities (p > .05 for all). Conclusion In this preliminary study, improvement in motor functions, daily living activities and force were found in both groups. However, addition of the EMG-driven robotic treatment to the neurophysiological rehabilitation program did not provide an additional benefit to the clinical outcomes in 3 weeks in acute stroke patients.

    Relationship Between Coronaphobia, Cognitive Functions, Sleep Quality, and Diet Quality in Older Adults During Covid-19
    (Galenos Publ House, 2024) Balci, Leyla Atas; Polat, Selda; Coskunsu, Dilber Karagoezoglu; Altuncevahir, Ilayda; Koc, Bilge Meral; Ozkul, Ecenur
    Objective: The relationship between the quality of diet and sleep, cognitive function, and fear related to coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) among older adults in Turkey during the pandemic remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between diet quality, cognitive function, sleep quality, and levels of coronaphobia in individuals aged 65 and above, to understand the impact of COVID-19. Materials and Methods: Sleep quality, diet quality, coronaphobia, and cognitive status of 72 older individuals were evaluated using the Pittsburgh sleep quality index, healthy eating index 2010, Montreal cognitive assessment scale, and coronavirus-19 phobia scale, respectively. Results: The participants had poor diet quality (54.2%), poor sleep quality (62.5%), obesity (41.7%), higher levels of coronaphobia, and cognitive impairment. There was a moderate negative relationship between sleep quality and coronaphobia and between cognitive status and coronaphobia (p <= 0.00); and a weak positive relationship between diet quality and cognitive status (p<0.05). However, no relationship was found between sleep quality and diet quality, and between coronaphobia and diet quality (p>0.05). Conclusion: Our study highlights the significant challenges faced by older adults during the COVID-19 pandemic, including poor nutrition quality, sleep disturbances, coronaphobia, and cognitive impairment. Our findings suggest a potential interplay between nutrition quality, sleep patterns, and cognitive function among older adults, with those experiencing coronaphobia exhibiting additional cognitive and sleep-related concerns. We advocate the implementation of targeted interventions aimed at mitigating cognitive impairment, addressing nutritional deficiencies, and improving sleep quality among older adults, irrespective of COVID-19 infection status, to enhance overall well-being during these challenging times.
