“…Although there are studies that independently relate stress with the PF [ 21 , 22 ] and stress with increased tone in the orofacial region [ 4 , 23 ], no study has been found that proves whether there is a statistically significant relationship between the tone of both regions.…”

Introduction Stress is characterized as a challenging occurrence that triggers a physiological and/or behavioral allostatic response, alongside the demands typically encountered throughout the natural course of life. A sustained state of stress gives rise to secondary effects, including insomnia and neck pain. Also, the risk of musculoskeletal problems in the cervical and lumbar spine can be increased due to a sustained state of stress. The present study main objective is to study the association between orofacial and pelvic floor muscles in women in Spain. Methodology An observational, cross-sectional, retrospective analytical study was designed and carried out in the laboratories of the European University of Madrid. Sixty-five participants were recruited with a mean age of 29.9 ± 7.69. Measurements were taken by myotonometry on natural oscillation frequency (Hz), dynamic stiffness (N/m), elasticity (N/m2), mechanical stress relaxation time (ms) and creep, for the following muscles: right and left masseter, right and left temporalis and central fibrous nucleus of the perineum (CFPF). On the other hand, the subjects completed the following questionnaires: perceived stress scale (PSS-14), anxiety scale (STAI), self-reported bruxism questionnaire (CBA), Fonseca Anamnestic Index and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Scale (PSQI). Results Significant correlations were found in several parameters between the right temporalis and CFPF (p<0.05). Highlighting the correlation between TMDs and lubrication r = -0.254 (p = 0.041) and bruxism with pain in sexual intercourse r = 0.261 (p = 0.036). Conclusion The results support the proposed hypothesis. To the author’s knowledge, this is the first study which relates both locations, and it is suggested to continue with the research and expand the knowledge of it.

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) affects 30%–70% of women’s health to varying degrees, and numerous risk factors have been confirmed. For patients with moderate to severe POP, surgical intervention is the primary solution. The application of mesh materials, especially tissue-engineered materials, is more desirable for surgical outcomes. Compared to those for traditional surgery, the recurrence and reoperation rates for mesh implantation are low. The continuous development and improvement of tissue engineering technology and various related procedures offer good prospects. However, there is still no consensus on the criteria for POP treatment. Therefore, in this review, we describe the effects of different types of mesh materials and several related representative implantation procedures, explore the potential concerns and future remedies, and provide information for optimizing mesh implantation and formulating POP clinical protocols.

Background Every year, millions of women worldwide suffer in silence from pelvic floor disorders (PFDs) as an annoying health problem. Despite the high prevalence rate and negative effects of PFDs on the quality of life, the validity and reliability of pelvic floor distress inventory-short form (PFDI-20) has not been confirmed for Iranian women of reproductive age. Hence, this study aimed to determine measurement properties of PFDI-20 among women of reproductive age in Tabriz, Iran. Methods The current study was cross-sectional research that selected 400 women of reproductive age referring to health centers in Tabriz City, by using cluster random sampling from May 2022 to September 2022. Measurement properties of the Persian version of PFDI-20 were determined and evaluated through five steps, including content and face validity within two quantitative and qualitative parts, structural validity by using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and reliability testing through internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and measurement error. Moreover, ceiling and floor effects were investigated. Results In this research, CVI (content validity index) and CVR (content validity ratio) of PFDI-20 equaled 0.94 and 0.97, respectively. In addition, the EFA process was applied to 20 items and derived the structure of three factors, which explained 58.15% of the total variance. In CFA phase, values of fit indicators (RMSEA = 0.07, SRMR = 0.07, TLI = 0.97, CFI = 0.99, x2/df = 3.19) confirmed the model validity. To determine reliability, Cronbach’s alpha = 0.84; McDonald’s omega (95% CI) = 0.84 (0.82 to 0.87) and Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (95% CI) = 0.98 (0.97 to 0.99) were obtained. Also, the SEM was 2.64, and the SDC indicating the smallest individual change was 8.91. Regarding the inventory feasibility, the ceiling effect was not observed in total value and subscales, while the floor effect in the total score of PFDI-20 equaled 24.0. The latter rate equaled 45.8, 38.3, and 50.8 for subscales POPDI-6, CRADI-8, and UDI-6, respectively. Conclusions Persian version of PFDI-20 is a valid and reliable scale used to evaluate PFDs in Iranian women of reproductive age. Healthcare professionals can use this scale to screen PFDs, and researchers can consider it a reliable tool for their studies.
