“…The survey addresses two main components: mental health and physical functioning. The reliability of the SF‐36 has been rigorously tested and verified in Sheffield, England . Heydecke et al found that functional limitations, physical pain, physical limitations and mental disability dimensions in SF‐36 were important variables for OHRQoL and oral health effects in elderly patients receiving implant therapy and prosthetic treatment.…”

Objectives:To investigate the effect of generalized aggressive periodontitis (GAP), generalized chronic periodontitis (GCP) and gingivitis (G) on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) with Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) and Short Form-36 (SF-36) questionnaires. Methods:One hundred GAP patients, 114 GCP and 109 G patients were included in the study. Age, gender, number of missing teeth, probing depth (PD), bleeding on probing (BOP), plaque index (PI) and clinical attachment level (CAL) of patients were recorded. The Turkish versions of OHIP-14 and SF-36 questionnaires were filled before any medication and dental treatment were approved. The one-way ANOVA test was used to compare three groups.Results: Generalized aggressive periodontitis and GCP groups were similar to each other (P > 0.05) in most subscales except functional limitation and social disability of the OHIP-14 questionnaire (P = 0.034 and P = 0.018, respectively); conversely, there was no statistically difference between GAP and G groups in functional limitation and social disability subscales (P = 0.856 and P = 0.242, respectively). GAP group gave higher scores than GCP group in all subscales of SF-36 (P < 0.05). There was a negative correlation between OHIP-14 and SF-36 subscale scores in all groups. Conclusion:Study findings indicate that different forms of periodontal disease have different effects on quality of life of patients when measured by OHIP-14 and SF-36.Patients with GCP and GAP had poorer OHRQoL than G patients.

“…7,8 Evidence regarding the ability of the 6MWT to predict patient outcomes in the perioperative setting is limited to cohort studies with sample sizes of approximately 100 patients. In patients having thoracic or major general surgery, the 6MWT distance was predictive of postoperative complications 7,9,10 and hospital length of stay 10,11 in some but not all studies, 12 and was predictive of mortality in patients undergoing bilateral lung volume reduction surgery for severe chronic airways disease. 11 Its ability to predict cardiovascular or patientcentred outcomes in a large surgical cohort is not known.…”

Background: The 6-min walk test (6MWT) is a common means of functional assessment. Its relationship to disability-free survival (DFS) is uncertain. Methods: This sub-study of the Measurement of Exercise Tolerance for Surgery study had co-primary outcome measures: correlation of the preoperative 6MWT distance with 30 day quality of recovery (15-item quality of recovery) and 12 month WHO Disability Assessment Schedule scores. The prognostic utility of the 6MWT and other risk assessment tools for 12 month DFS was assessed with logistic regression and receiver-operating-characteristic-curve analysis. Results: Of 574 patients recruited, 567 (99%) completed the 6MWT. Twelve months after surgery, 16 (2.9%) patients had died and 444 (77%) had DFS. The 6MWT correlated weakly with 30 day 15-item quality of recovery (r¼0.14; P¼0.001) and 12 month WHO Disability Assessment Schedule (r¼e0.23; P<0.0005) scores. When the cohort was split into 6MWT distance tertiles, the adjusted odds ratio of low vs high tertiles for DFS was 3.13 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.54e6.35]. The only independent variable predictive of DFS was the Duke Activity Status Index (DASI) score (adjusted odds ratio: 1.06; P<0.0005). The area under the receiver-operating-characteristic curve for DFS was 0.63 (95% CI: 0.57e0.70) for the 6MWT, 0.60 (95% CI: 0.53e0.67) for cardiopulmonary-exercise-testing-derived peak oxygen consumption, and 0.70 (95% CI: 0.64e0.76) for the DASI score. Conclusions: Of the risk assessment tools analysed, the DASI was the most predictive of DFS. The 6MWT was safe and comparable with cardiopulmonary exercise testing for all predictive assessments. Future research should aim to determine the optimal 6MWT distance thresholds for risk prediction.

“…In der Praxis kann diese Leistungsfähigkeit auch mit einfacheren Tests, wie z. B. Steep-ramp-Test und Gehtests (6Minuten-Gehtest [6MWT]), ohne den Gasaustausch gemessen werden [21,22]. Außerdem können auch andere Tests, wie der Stair-rise-time-und Handgrip-strength-Test, zur Vorhersage der postoperativen Mortalität und beim Entlassungsmanagement verwendet werden [23,24].…”
