🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Objective: Impaired balance is one of the most important risk factors for falls in persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS).
📊
Key Findings & Data:The aim was to evaluate balance andgait performance in pwMS with the absence of clinical disability (pwMS-AD) compared with pwMS with minimal disability (MD) and healthy controls (HC).Materials and Methods: Nineteen pwMS-AD were assessed using the Expanded Disability Status scale (EDSS) score ≤1.5, 16 pwMS-MD (2.0≤ EDSS ≤3.0),and 39 HC were assessed using a posturography.

Abstract

Objective: Impaired balance is one of the most important risk factors for falls in persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). The aim was to evaluate balance andgait performance in pwMS with the absence of clinical disability (pwMS-AD) compared with pwMS with minimal disability (MD) and healthy controls (HC).Materials and Methods: Nineteen pwMS-AD were assessed using the Expanded Disability Status scale (EDSS) score ≤1.5, 16 pwMS-MD (2.0≤ EDSS ≤3.0),and 39 HC were assessed using a posturography. Limits of stability (LOS), postural stability (PS) and fall risk index tests were performed. The Brief-BalanceEvaluation Systems Test (Brief-BESTest), Activities-Specific Balance Confidence (ABC) scale, timed 25 foot walk test (T25FW) and 12-Item MS walking scale(MSWS-12) were used.Results: Significant differences were observed between pwMS-AD and pwMS-MD in terms of PS (overall, anteroposterior, mediolateral), Brief-BESTest, T25FW,and MSWS-12 (p

Özet

Amaç: Denge bozukluğu, multipl sklerozlu bireylerde (pwMS) düşmeler için en önemli risk faktörlerinden biridir. Çalışmamızın amacı, klinik yeti yitimi olmayan MS’li bireylerde denge ve yürüyüş performansını değerlendirmek, minimum yeti yitimine sahip MS’lilerle (pwMS-MD) ve sağlıklı kontrollerle (HC) karşılaştırmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Genişletilmiş Engellilik Durum ölçeği (EDSS) skoru ≤1,5 olan 19 MS’li birey, minimal yeti yitimine sahip (2,0≤ EDSS ≤3,0) 16 MS’li ve 39 sağlıklı kontrol posturografi kullanılarak stabilite limitleri (LOS), postural stabilite (PS) ve düşme riski açısından değerlendirildi. Ayrıca Brief-Balance Evaluation Systems Test (Brief-BESTest), Aktiviteye Spesifik Denge Güvenlik skalası (ABC), Zamanlı 25 adım yürüme testi (T25FW) ve MS Yürüyüş Ölçeği (MSWS-12) kullanıldı. Bulgular: Yeti yitimi olmayan ve minimal yeti yitimine sahip MS grupları karşılaştırıldığında, postüral stabilite (genel, anteroposterior, mediolateral), Brief-BESTest, T25FW ve MSWS-12 açısından anlamlı farklılıklar gözlendi (p
