    Finding Stability-A Case Report on the Benefits of Adapted Kata Training for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
    (Mdpi, 2024) Orhan, Bekir Erhan; Uzuncayir, Dilek; Canli, Umut; Karacam, Aydin; Ozdemir, Ali Selman; Popa, Cristian; Iconomescu, Teodora-Mihaela
    This study investigated the efficacy of an Adapted Kata Training Program (AKTP) in enhancing balance for a 10-year-old child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), employing a mixed-model approach for data collection. Over 12 weeks, the AKTP demonstrated significant improvements in the child's balance abilities, with an 11% increase in static balance, 8% in proprioceptive, 12% in horizontal, and 14% in vertical balance performance. These improvements persisted in a follow-up assessment after four weeks. Observations by the child's mother corroborated the above findings. Consequently, this research suggests the AKTP as a valuable non-pharmacological intervention to improve balance in children with ASD. However, further studies are necessary to validate these results and explore the impact on additional developmental domains, such as cognitive and motor skills.

    Predicting functional movement capacity in adults: the effect of range of motion and isometric strength
    (Bmc, 2024) Ozkan, Mazhar; Canli, Umut; Alwhaibi, Reem; Ustamer, Kubra; Karacam, Aydin; Orhan, Bekir Erhan; Bohn, Lucimere
    The aim of the study was to determine the role of isometric strength and range of motion in predicting Functional Movement Screen (FMS) scores of adults. A total of 120 participants (age = 34.62 +/- 11.82 years; height = 170.56 +/- 9.63 cm; weight = 73.62 +/- 15.39 kg) volunteered to participate in the study. Anthropometric measurements were performed, including height, body weight, muscle mass, and body fat. Following this, the ranges of motion of the shoulder, hip, knee, and ankle joints were measured sequentially. Isometric strength and FMS tests were then performed. Hip extension isometric strength explained 23% of the variation in FMStotal. The common effect of knee flexion, shoulder flexion, and dorsiflexion joint range of motion explained 34% of the change in FMStotal (F ((3-116)) = 20.375, p < 0.001). A significant relationship (R = 0.658, R-2 = 0.413) was found between hip extension isometric strength, knee flexion, shoulder flexion, and dorsiflexion range of motion and FMStotal (F ((4-115)) = 21.952, p < 0.001). The common effect of all these variables explains 43% of the change in FMStotal. The results indicate that the FMS test scores, which are utilized to evaluate the risk of injury in sedentary adults, can be significantly predicted by the effect of hip extension isometric strength and parameters related to knee flexion, shoulder flexion, and dorsiflexion joint range of motion. At this time, it is advised that range of motion and isometric strength be taken into account when determining a person's functional movement capacity.
