Öğe Anthropometric, Morphometric and Posture Evaluation of the Tallest Living Person in the World: A Case Report(2020) Kara, ErhanThis study aims to identify the anthropometric and morphometric characteristics and reveal the postural disorder of the malecase called S.K who was diagnosed with Gigantism (pituitary gigantism) caused by hypersecretion of pituitary tumor-relatedgrowth hormone and entitled as the tallest person alive in the world with a height of 2.51 cm in the Guinness World Records in2009. Height, weight, body mass index, upper extremity lengths, lower extremity lengths, skinfold thickness, upper and lowerextremity diameters, upper and lower extremity perimeters, chest depth and hand grip strength were measured foranthropometric measurement. 8 different body segments were calculated and analyzed using The Posture Screen Mobile®application for posture evaluation. Disorders in these segments were identified based on forwarding tilt of head(Anterior/Lateral -AL), position of head (A-L), tilt and position of shoulder (A-L), position of ribcage (left-right), position ofpelvis (left-right), pelvic tilt (left-right) and load on the head (lb. and kg) (Figure 1.). The measurements revealed that the casesurprisingly had anthropometric and morphometric values above normal human dimensions and that, there was also no otherliving human being with numerically the same values. (Table 2-8). As a result, since the fact investigated has an extreme lengthdue to gigantism, he has taken his place in the Guinness Book of Records as the world's longest living person with a longlength.Öğe Artistik Cimnastikçilerde Büyüme ve Olgunlaşma(Kilis 7 Aralık Üniversitesi, 2021) Kara, ErhanAmaç: Artistik cimnastik erken yaşta özelleşmeyi gerektiren estetik sporlar arasında yer almaktadır. Cimnastiğin doğası gereği erken çocukluk döneminden itibaren yapılan mekanik yüklenmeler tüm dünyada yaygın bir uygulamadır. Ancak kadın ve erkek cimnastikçiler her ne kadar benzer antrenman yüküne maruz kalsalar da antrenman yoğunluğu ve algılanan zorlanma düzeyi cinsiyete göre farklılık gösterebilir. Bu farklılıklar cimnastikçilerin biyolojik büyüme ve olgunlaşma sürecini etkileyip etkilemediğine dair tartışmalar yaratmıştır. Bu nedenle bu derlemenin amacı, özellikle artistik cimnastik antrenmanlarının büyüme ve olgunlaşma üzerine olası etkilerini özetlemektir.

COVID-19 pandemic has become a great problem lately for the whole world population because of its fatal effect. Staying at home for months can cause sedentary behaviors and some changes in people's immune responses by restricting their physical and social activities. The databases such as PubMed, Elsevier, Scopus and Science Direct and Google Scholar have been used for scientific surveys while working on this review. The sources cited in this review include reports on past or current public health by more than one health institution, online information, and a total of 59 scientific articles published in refereed journals. In this review, the interaction of physical activity and exercise practices with immune responses during COVID-19 pandemic has been presented and it has been indicated that according to the data obtained from the studies conducted in previous years, physical activity and moderate exercise practices have a positive effect on immune system responses, but high-intensity and long term exercises suppress the immune system. As a consequence, social isolation during COVID-19 pandemic may cause sedentary behaviors. Therefore, individualized proper exercise practices are strongly recommended.Öğe Corrective effect of gymnastic training on sternocleidomastoid muscle(Edizioni Minerva Medica, 2021) Kara, ErhanThe aim of this study was to contribute to future studies and sports health science literature by examining the corrective effect of regular gymnastics exercises on sternocleidomastoid muscle and cervical posture. 5.5-year-old case with story of premature birth at the thirty-second week having 1600 grams of low birth body weight (LBBW) and 40 centimeters of height remained in the incubator in the newborn Intensive Care Unit due to the infection she had after birth. She was constantly laid on her left side and her nutrition was carried out by a nasogastric tube attached from the right side due to medical indication during her stay in the incubator. Therefore, she was diagnosed with torticollis which was caused by shortening in the left sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscle. The case participated in the gymnastics training for 10 months and pre-post test active range of motion (AROM) and radiography of the cervical region were taken. Ten months and as a training effect, it was observed that the limitation of the left lateral flexion and left rotation active joint range of motion in the cervical region decreased, and the neck posture improved. As a result, gymnastics training with an experienced trainer can be recommended for cases with similar findings, provided that individual differences are also taken into account.Öğe Effect of Specific Core Training On Strength And Balance Performance of Elite Tennis Players(Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart Üniversitesi, 2021) Kara, Erhan; Çelik, Yunus EmrePurpose: The aim of this research is to investigate the effect of specific core training on the strength variables and static balance performance of elite tennis players. Method: Fourty tennis players living in the province of Isparta and training at the Suleyman Demirel University Tennis Center were voluntarily included in the study. The subjects were divided into two groups randomly. Pre-test post-test experimental method was used in the research. Three days a week for 12 weeks to the study group 30 min. while applying core training with duration, the control group only continued to practice tennis. Strength and static balance test measurements of the study and control groups were performed as the pre-test and the post-test. Spearman correlation and Mann-Whitney U tests were used for statistical analysis of the data, and the significance level was accepted as p<0.05. As a result of the 12-week core training program applied, a positive significant difference was found in the static balance average of the study group (p<0.05). In addition, a significant difference was found in all measurements of the strength parameters of the study group before and after training (p<0.05). In the control group, a significant difference was observed in the measurements of the strength parameters before and after the training in push-up, hand grip and back strength (p <0.05). Result: As a result It has been observed that core training has a positive effect on strength and balance stability of tennis athletes in terms of sportive performance. In addition, this study can shed light on new research that will reveal the impact of core training applied with different methods and techniques on static and dynamic balance performanceÖğe INFLUENCE OF 12-WEEK ARTISTIC GYMNASTICS TRAINING ON CHILDREN'S STRENGTH AND BALANCE PERFORMANCE(Univ Ljubljana, Fac Sport, 2021) Kara, ErhanThe purpose of the present study was to investigate the influence of 12-week artistic gymnastics training on children's strength and static balance performance. A total of 32 children attending gymnastic club for kids with mean age 6.09 +/- 7.45 years; height 106.81 +/- 5.47 cm, body weight 17.00 +/- 2.72kg and body mass index (BMI) 14.98 +/- 2.57 kg/m2 were included in the study. A training program with 270-minute intensity at a frequency of 3 days a week for 12 weeks has been implemented for all participants. Hand grip strength test, stretched arm hanging duration on high bar and stork balance test for dominant and non-dominant legs were applied to the participants. SPSS 21.0 statistical program was used in the statistical analysis of the data and the statistical significance level was accepted as p<0.05. As a result of the study, while a statistically significant difference has not been observed between Non-dominant leg stork balance pre-test and the post-test (p=0.06>0.05), a statistically significant difference was observed between the Dominant leg stork balance pre-test and the post-test (p=0.00<0.05). However, a significant difference was found between both hand grip strength pre-test and post-test (p=0.00<0.05) and stretched arm hanging duration on high bar pre-test and post-test (p=0.00<0.05). There was a statistically significant difference between the participant's pretest sit and reach and the post-test (p= 0.00<0.05). It can be said with this study that 12-week artistic gymnastics training increased children's forearm flexor muscle isometric strength and balance performance.Öğe Investigation of the Relationship Between Acceleration, Speed and Agility Performance of Well Trainned Female Volleyball Players(Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart Üniversitesi, 2021) Kara, Erhan; Arslangörür, Aslıhan; Özmutlu, İlker; Hakverdi, ErmanPurpose: In this study, it was aimed to examine the relationship between the acceleration, speed and agility performances of volleyball players. Method: A total of 13 athletes from the 2nd League women's volleyball team were included in this study voluntarily. The age, height, weight and body mass index of the participants were 25.23 ± 5.18 years, 68.45 ± 10.76 kg, 178.61 ± 6.95 cm and 21.37 ± 2.37 kg/m2, respectively. All tests were carried out on two different days. Anthropometric measurements were performed on the first day, while on the second day; 10 km acceleration, 20 m Sprint and T‒ drill agility tests performed. Pearson product moment correlation analysis were used to determine the relationship between performance tests as a result of the normal distribution of the data and the significance value was accepted as p<0.05.Result: According to the results, a high level of positive correlation (r = ,864, p<0.01) was observed between acceleration and speed. It was found that there was a moderately positive correlation (r = .553 p <0.05) between speed and agility performance, but no correlation was found between acceleration and agility performances (p> 0.05).Conclusion: As a result, it can be said that female volleyball players in this study have a significant relationship between acceleration and speed, and a moderately significant relationship between speed and agility performance. But there were no correlation between acceleration and agility performance.Öğe Relationship between functional movement screening and static balance scores: Increasing the educational level of elite female wrestlers(Univ San Ignacio Loyola, 2021) Kara, Erhan; Öncen, Sercan; Sağıroğlu, İsa; Dinçer, ÖzgürThe importance of balance is considerably high in many sports that require struggle and close contact such as wrestling. Some losses in maintaining the balance due to the movements requiring high intensity during competitions and increase in the risk of injury due to these losses may occur in wrestling athletes. The aim of this study is to Increase the educational level of elite female wrestlers by examining the relationship between Functional Movement Screening Test Scores and static balance performance scores of elite young female wrestlers. 19 elite female wrestlers having average age of 22.94 +/- 2.67 years, body weight 61.63 +/- 7.25 kg, height 165.37 +/- 5.17 cm and BMI 22.46 +/- 1.60kg / m2 participated in the study. Functional Movement Screen Test (TM) (FMSTT) battery was used in determining the functional movements of the participants, while Tecnobody Prokin 200 Bergamo/Italy was used to determine the total postural stability index values. All static balance measurements were evaluated as standing Double-Leg Eyes Open (DLEO), Eyes Open Single-Leg Dominant Non-Dominant (EOSL-DM and EOSL-ND). Since higher stability index values indicate lower stability, the participants were found to have a negative correlation between non-dominant leg static balance and HS. SM. and TSPU, and between dominant leg static balance and HS. SM. and TSPU. In addition, it was found out that, there was a negative correlation between non-dominant leg static balance, dominant leg static balance and double leg static balance and the FMST (TM) scores of the participants. The results of this research can be very effective in improving the educational process in the field of wrestling.Öğe The Relationship between Functional Movement Screening Scores and Motor Performance of Physical Education and Sports Department Students(Int Journal Applied Exercise Physiology, 2020) Kara, ErhanThe aim of this study was to examine the relationship between functional movement screening test (FMST (TM)) and motor performance. A Total of 23 participants in Physical Education and Sports Teaching department with the mean age 21.13 +/- 0.91 years; height 179.86 +/- 4.88 cm, body weight 74.21 +/- 8.81kg and body mass index (BMI) 22.93 +/- 2.48 kg/m(2) were included in the study. A total of 7 movements were evaluated for the FMST (TM) according to the test protocol. In determining the motor performances of the participants; hand grip strength test, seat and reach test, 505 agility test, vertical jump and anaerobic power test, 10m sprint test, 100m speed test and dynamic balance board test were used. Spearman correlation and Mann-Whitney U tests were used for statistical analysis of the data, and the significance level was accepted as p<0.05. As a result, a positive relationship was found between the flexibility and FMST (TM) scores of the participants (p<0.05). No relationship was found between motor performance with FMST (TM) scores (p>0.05). When the variables of the motor performances and the FMST (TM) test scores of the participants were compared according to the variable of success, a significant difference was found between the flexibility and the FMST (TM) scores success variable (p<0.05). As a result, it can be said that the success of FMST (TM) has a relationship with and effect on flexibility, which is one of the components of motor performance, and it has no relation with and effect on strength, speed, agility, sprint.Öğe The Risk Factors Associated with Grip Lock Injuries in Artistic Gymnasts: A Systematic Review(MDPI, 2023) Kara, Erhan; Sağıroğlu, İ.; Vurgun, H.; Eken, Ö.; Ceylan, H.İ.; Gabrys, T.; Barasinska, M.Artistic gymnastics (AG) is a sport that demands grace, strength, and flexibility, leading to a broad spectrum of injuries. The dowel grip (DG) is widely used by gymnasts to securely hold onto the high bar or uneven bars. However, incorrect usage of the DG can result in grip lock (GL) injuries. This systematic review aims to (1) identify studies that have investigated the risk factors related to GL injuries among gymnasts and (2) synthesize the key evidence. A comprehensive electronic search was conducted in the following databases: PubMed, ScienceDirect, Elsevier, SportDiscus, and Google Scholar, covering the period from their inception until November 2022. The data extraction and analysis were independently completed by two investigators. A total of 90 relevant studies were initially identified, out of which seven clinical trials met the eligibility criteria. For the quantitative synthesis, five studies were included. The details extracted from each article include: the sample characteristics (number, gender, age, and health status), the study design, the instrumentation or intervention used, and the final results. Our results revealed that the underlying causes of the risk factors of GL injuries were the irregular checking of the dowel grip and the mating surface of the bar, the tearing of the dowel of the leather strap, and the use of the dowel grip in different competition apparatuses. In addition, GL injuries may occur either as severe forearm fractures or mild injuries. Excessive flexion of the forearm and overpronation of the wrist during rotational movements, such as the swing or backward/forward giant circle, may increase the possibility of GL injury on the high bar. Future studies should focus on GL injury prevention strategy and rehabilitation protocol for GL injuries. Further high-quality research is required to establish the validity of these findings. © 2023 by the authors.
