ABSTRACT Sacroiliac joint dysfunction(sijd) is created by repetitive stresses and is ligaments and muscles cause compressive and elastic forces [1].Muscles ligaments and joints are mechanoreceptors and retains stability and bearings of the body movements sense proprioception. [9].However there is a little research investigating the relationship between sijd and balance. Aim: To investigate the relationship between sijd and static/dynamic balance. Methods: 20 subjects with sijd and 20subjects without SIJ dysfunction(control group-CG)were evaluated by standing flexion,sitting flexion and Gillet's Test.In addition to sociodemographic features, visual analog scale(VAS) was used for pain assessment.Manuel Muscle Testing (MMT) was used for assessing strength of rectus abdominis and lumbar extensors.Static balance was evaluated by single leg stance test (SLST) with open and closed eyes.Dynamic balance was evaluated by Prokin PK200. Results: For statistical analysis SPSS program was used.There were significant difference in static balance of the lower extremities without visual feedback between subjects with sijd and CG(p
Objective: It has been theorized that changes in the lower extremity mechanics may lead to develop Patellofemoral Pain (PFP) in the young population. The present study aims to investigate the effects of lower extremity mechanics on Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome in private university students. Material and Methods: Kujala Pain Score (KPS) of 400 Yeditepe University students ages of 18-30 years was performed. Students having a less or equal point of 85 in KPS (n=30) and healthy groups randomly selected in students with KPS=100 (n=30) were measured in terms of Feiss Line, navicular drop, subtalar angle, tibial torsion, knee valgus angle, Q angle in standing and supine position and hamstring tightness. Results: The prevalence of PFP among students was found to be 10.5%(n = 42). In case and control groups were found 2nd Pes Planus (PP) as 16 (%53,3) and 3 (%10) respectively. A statistically significant difference was found between groups in navicular drop, subtalar angle, tibial rotation, Q angle in supine and hamstring tightness (p-value
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
