“…IPAQ is used in many recent studies to measure physical activity level of post-menopausal women [21] breast cancer patients (Canário, et al,1992), cardiovascular disease patients [22] and diabetes [23,24]. Turkish versions of the IPAQ short and long forms are found reliable and valid in assessment of physical activity [5].…”

Aim of this study was to assess the reliability and validity of RT6 in healthy, young, sedentary adults. A total of 41 healthy, young, sedentary adults were recruited to this study. Sociodemographic data and IPAQ were collected from the subjects. Subjects wore RT6 accelerometer and pedometer on their pelvises. Subjects were asked walk at their normal and brisk walking speeds for 10 minutes. These activities were repeated on a treadmill using the individual speeds from normal ground walking on two settings 1 week apart. Bland-Altman analyses were performed to determine the mean difference and the levels of agreement. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the questionnaire was used. There was a 63.2% agreement between the treadmill and the normal ground at normal speed measurements. There was no statistically significant correlation between the pedometer and other measures. This study found that RT6 is a valid measurement tool at normal and active walking speeds in measurement of physical activity.

“…Subsequently, obesity, and particularly central adiposity, is common among persons with chronic SCI and is more prevalent than in able-bodied persons [16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. The sedentary lifestyle can also result in low levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), an additional CHD risk factor [23,24].…”

This commentary considers the implications of the findings related to the effect of a study related to coronary heart disease (CHD) risk assessment in individuals with a chronic spinal cord injury (SCI). The findings from the study suggest that there is poor agreement in CHD risk assessment between the previously used guidelines, the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) Guidelines, and coronary artery calcium scores (CACS). Since this publication, a new atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk estimator has been developed. This has not been used in any study with SCI participants. The study also showed that 18 (47.4%) of the participants had some element of CAC, indicating the presence of CHD. Many previous articles have discussed CHD risk factors and mortality in the SCI population. Despite this, there have been very few interventions to decrease the CHD risk in the chronic SCI population.

BackgroundFibromyalgia (FM) has been conceptualised as a central nervous system (CNS) disorder, characterised by augmented sensory processing and inability to modulate pain effectively[.1 Global mean prevalence of FM is 2.7% with female/male ratio of 4:1. Several studies highlight the importance of central sensitisation (CS) as a significant manifestation of neuropathic pain symptoms in knee osteoarthritis (OA).2–3 Possible similar mechanisms of chronic pain maintenance in OA – structural pathology, and FM – central sensitivity syndrome, provoke further interest in investigation of any links between these conditions. Therefore, prevalence of FM in patients with painful knee OA is of considerable interest.ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of fibromyalgia (FM) in patients with painful knee OA.MethodsThe study involved 92 patients (63 females and 29 males) with painful knee OAACR 1986 Osteoarthritis Knee Criteria) with non-surgical management aged 59.4±14.3 (M±SD) yrs.4 Radiographic findings for OA were classified according to Kellgren-Lawrence scale grading.5 FM was diagnosed in these subjects if both ACR 1990 and 2010 criteria were met.5–6 ResultsFM was diagnosed in 21painful knee OA patients (22.83%). Among female patients FM was confirmed in 19 from 63 subjects (30.16%) compared to 2 from 29 male patients (6.90%). No relationship was found between the radiologic stage of the knee OA and FM prevalence in the investigated subjects.ConclusionsFM prevalence is relatively high in painful knee OA patients, mostly female. Further studies investigating possible FM impact on pain modulation, functional disability and quality of life in painful knee OA are needed.References[1] Petersel DL, Dror V, Cheung R.
