  Background Walking difficulties are common among pregnant women with pelvic girdle pain. This cross-sectional study investigated the influence of pelvic girdle pain, pregnancy and speed on spatiotemporal and trunk, pelvic and hip kinematics during gait in the 2nd trimester of pregnancy. Methods Three-dimensional gait analysis at self-selected speed was performed in 25 pregnant women with pelvic girdle pain, 24 asymptomatic pregnant and 24 non-pregnant women. Linear mixed models were used to investigate between-group differences in gait variables. Adjustment for gait speed was included in the analysis. Correlations between speed and fear of movement, disability and pain were examined using Spearman correlation coefficient (rs). Findings Pregnant women with pelvic girdle pain walked 18% slower (estimated marginal means (95% confidence intervals) 1.18 (1.22, 1.24) meter/s) compared to asymptomatic pregnant women (1.44 (1.38, 1.50) meter/s) (P < 0.001). Moreover, with longer double limb support (5%, P = 0.04), shorter contralateral step length (3%, P = 0.03) and more restricted pelvic and hip kinematics (0.001 ≤ P ≤ 0.01) adjusted for speed. Only stance, double limb support and thoracic rotation (0.001 ≤ P ≤ 0.04) differed between asymptomatic pregnant and non-pregnant women. Speed was negatively correlated with fear of movement (rs = −0.63, P = 0.01) and disability (rs = −0.46, P = 0.03) in the pelvic girdle pain group. Interpretation Gait is primarily influenced by pelvic girdle pain and less by pregnancy. Pregnant women with pelvic girdle pain walked slower and with a more rigid gait pattern compared to asymptomatic pregnant women, presumably related to altered load transfer. Our results may assist clinical evaluation of pelvic girdle pain, as well as direct future research.

  Background: The Timed Up and Go (TUG) test, a standardized functional mobility test, has been proposed as aphysical performance-based measure in pregnant women with pelvic girdle pain (PGP).Objectives:This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate physical function by the use of TUG in pregnantwomen with PGP compared to asymptomatic pregnant and non-pregnant women, and to identify factors asso-ciated with increased TUG.Methods:In total, 25 pregnant women with PGP, 24 asymptomatic pregnant and 25 asymptomatic non-pregnantwomen participated. One-way analysis of variance was used to explore difference in TUG between the groupsand multiple linear regression analyses to explore associations between TUG and potential explanatory variables.Results:The time on TUG varied among pregnant women with PGP, and was significantly higher (mean (95% CI)6.9 (6.5, 7.3) seconds) than for asymptomatic pregnant (5.8 (5.5, 6.0), p < 0.001) and non-pregnant (5.5 (5.4,5.6), p < 0.001) women. In the total study sample, group, increased BMI and sick leave were significantlyassociated with increased TUG (p-values≤0.02). In pregnant women with PGP, pain intensity was the onlysignificant clinical factor associated with increased TUG (p= 0.002).Conclusion:Pregnant women with PGP used longer time and showed larger variation in TUG than asymptomaticpregnant and non-pregnant women, this underpins that TUG targets activities relevant to PGP. Our resultsprovide new knowledge about factors influencing TUG time. Importantly, multivariable analyses suggest thatpain intensity should be considered when interpreting TUG time in pregnant women with PGP.

  Background Higher age is associated with reduced physical capability in the general population. The role of age and gender for physical performance in older adults who exercises regularly is, however, not clear, and there is also a lack of recommendations for outcomes to address physical performance for this population. Aims To explore the associations between physical performance, age and gender, and to examine the suitability and feasibility of clinical field tests for physical performance in active older adults. Methods In this cross-sectional study we included 105 persons, 70–90 years of age, who had exercised regularly for ≥ 12 months. The field tests were Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), Timed Up and Go and gait speed for mobility; One-leg standing (OLS) test and Mini-BESTest for balance; Stair test for endurance, 30 s sit-to-stand, and grip strength for muscle strength. Results We found associations between age and physical performance, and the associations were slightly stronger for women. Men performed better on tests of muscle strength, balance and endurance, while no gender differences were found in mobility. Grip strength was not associated with mobility tests for men. All tests were feasible, while SPPB and OLS had ceiling and floor effects that limit their suitability in this population. Conclusions Both age and gender were associated with physical performance. We recommend using the gait speed, Mini-BESTest, 30 s sit-to-stand, grip strength and stair tests to assess physical performance in physically active older adults.

  Hensikt: Undersøke hva som karakteriserer personer som står på venteliste hos avtalefysioterapeuter, hvilken prioritet de får og hvor lenge de venter på behandling, sett opp mot prioriteringsnøkkel med maks anbefalt ventetid. Design: Tverrsnittstudie. Materiale: Personer som ble satt på ventelistene til 6 fellespraksiser i to østlandskommuner i løpet av 6 måneder. Metode: Ventelisteskjema med informasjon om demografi, prioritet og ventetid for hver person. Resultater: Totalt 837 personer sto på ventelistene. Av disse var 68% kvinner, 66% var i yrkesaktiv alder og 88% var fra egen kommune. Henvendelsene ble gitt prioritet fra 1-4 etter hastegrad, der 73% fikk prioritet 1 eller 2. Personer som fikk tilbud innenfor maks anbefalt ventetid etter prioriteringsnøkkelen: Prioritet 1: 48%, prioritet 2: 25%, prioritet 3: 14% og prioritet 4:18%. Tjueto prosent av alle på ventelistene ventet over 6 måneder uten å få tilbud. Ventetiden var signifikant lengre til psykomotorisk fysioterapi sammenlignet med annen fysioterapi. Konklusjon: Avtalefysioterapeutene vurderte et stort flertall av henvendelsene til å få høy prioritet. Totalt sett ble under halvparten tatt inn innen maks anbefalt ventetid. Resultatene tyder på at man bør se nærmere på gjeldende inntakspraksis, prioriteringsnøkkel, og tiltak for å redusere ventetiden.

  Background and aims: Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) is an enzyme that may affect degradation of several extracellular matrix (ECM) components in the pelvic ligaments during pregnancy. Previous studies indicate that genetic variations in the gene encoding MMP9 may affect the enzymatic activity. One such genetic variant is a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs17576 A>G. In this study we investigated whether the MMP9 SNP rs17576 A>G may be associated with increased lumbopelvic pain in 838 pregnant woman. The study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT 00476567) on May 21, 2007. Methods: Lumbopelvic pain-intensity was measured by visual analog scale (VAS) at two time points during pregnancy, T1 (18–22 weeks), T2 (32–36 weeks) and 3 months after delivery. Blood samples were collected at each point and SNP genotyping was carried out using predesigned TaqMan SNP genotyping assays. Results: The results showed a significant association between the number of G alleles and pain-intensity in the evening at T2. The pain among G/G carriers was higher than among A/G carriers, which in turn was higher than among the A/A carriers. The most pronounced association between the G allele and pain-intensity was observed in primiparae. Conclusions: We conclude that the MMP9 rs17576 A>G polymorphism is associated with increased lumbopelvic pain-intensity during pregnancy. The present data support the hypothesis that lumbopelvic pain during pregnancy may be related to a relaxin – MMP9 – tissue remodeling mechanism.

  Spørsmål: Er Back Performance Scale (BPS) egnet til å vurdere funksjon hos pasienter som behandles for ryggproblemer hos fysioterapeuter i primærhelsetjenesten? Design: Tverrsnittsstudie. Materiale og metode: To fysioterapeuter samlet data på flere fysioterapiklinikker i Hedmark og Oslo fra til sammen 52 pasienter med ryggplager. Pasientene utførte BPS-testene og rapporterte sin funksjon på spørreskjemaet Hannover på to tidspunkt med en til tre dagers mellomrom (test-retest). Resultat: Ryggpasienter som ble behandlet av fysioterapeuter i primærhelsetjenesten hadde moderat grad av funksjonsproblemer i daglige aktiviteter, både ut fra skårene på testbatteriet BPS og på spørreskjemaet Hannover. En stor andel av pasientene hadde ingen eller lite problemer med å utføre de enkelte fysiske testene i BPS, men sumskåren ga et bredere bilde av funksjonsevnen. BPS har en betydelig takeffekt for denne gruppen. De fysiske testene korrelerte høyt med pasientenes egenrapporterte funksjon, og ser derved ut til å fange opp relevante funksjoner. Test-retest stabiliteten for BPS var svært god og målefeilen akseptabel. Konklusjon: BPS er et valid testbatteri som er egnet til å kartlegge funksjonsevne relatert til dagliglivsaktiviteter hos pasienter som behandles for sine ryggplager i primærhelsetjenesten. Testbatteriet har god test-retest stabilitet og målefeilen er akseptabel, men på grunn av takeffekt, er det ikke egnet som effektmål hos alle pasienter i primærhelsetjenesten.

  This study aims to investigate how fatigue affects adults with verified Marfan syndrome (MFS) in their daily lives, by examining fatigue levels and prevalence of severe fatigue compared to the general Norwegian population and individuals with other comparable chronic conditions. We investigated associations between socio-demographic characteristics, Marfan-related health problems, pain and fatigue. A cross-sectional study was conducted, using a postal questionnaire including the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) and questions on socio-demographic characteristics, Marfan-related health problems and pain. One hundred seventeen persons with MFS were invited to participate, 73 answered (62%). Participants reported significantly higher FSS scores and prevalence of severe fatigue compared to the general Norwegian population and patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but lower than for other chronic conditions. Participants with chronic pain reported higher fatigue scores than those without chronic pain. Participants on disability benefits reported higher fatigue scores than participants who were working or enrolled in higher education. Marfan-related health problems like aortic dissection and use of blood pressure medication were not significantly associated with fatigue. In multivariable regression analyses chronic pain and employment status were significantly associated with fatigue. The final multivariable model explained 24% of the variance in fatigue scores. Our results show that fatigue is common in MFS patients and that it interferes with their daily lives. Chronic pain and employment status show significant associations to fatigue. This implies that fatigue is important to address when meeting MFS patients in clinical practice. There is need for more research on fatigue in Marfan syndrome. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

  Published before print 2008. Adresser OK./tøf ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Abstract The objective was to examine inter-tester reliability and validity of two therapists identifying the spinous processes (SP) of C7 and L5, using one predefined surface palpation procedure for each level. One identification method made it possible to examine the reliability and the validity of the procedure itself. Two manual therapists examined 49 patients (29 women). Aged between 26 and 79 years, 18 were cervical and 31 lumbar patients. An invisible marking pen and ultraviolet light were used, and the findings were compared. X-rays were taken as an objective measure of the correct spinal level. Percentage agreement and kappa statistics were used to evaluate reliability and validity. The best inter-therapist agreement was found for the skin marks. Percentage agreement within 10 mm and 20 mm was 67% and 85%, respectively. The inter-tester reliability for identifying a radiological nominated SP by palpation was found to be poor for C7 and moderate for L5, with kappa of 0.18 and 0.48, respectively. The results indicated acceptable inter-therapist surface palpation agreement, but the chosen procedures did not identify the correct SP. This indicates that the procedures are not precise enough. Future reliability studies should test other non-invasive palpation procedures, both individually and in combination, and compare these with radiological investigation.

  Hensikt: Hensikten med denne studien er å få en forståelse av fenomenet opplevd fatigue (tretthet) og hvordan det arter seg for voksne med verifisert Marfans syndrom (MFS). Jeg vil undersøke grad av fatigue og forekomst av alvorlig fatigue hos voksne med MFS, og sammenligne dette med rapportert forekomst i den generelle befolkningen og for noen aktuelle kroniske tilstander. Assosiasjoner mellom fatigue og sosiodemografiske karakteristika og selvrapporterte helseproblemer hos voksne med MFS vil bli undersøkt i multivariable analyser. Metode: Tverrsnittsstudie med postutsendt spørreskjema. Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), sosio-demografiske forhold og selvrapporterte helseproblemer ble undersøkt hos 72 voksne personer med MFS. Resultater: Deltakerne rapporterte signifikant høyere FSS gjennomsnittsskår og høyere forekomst av alvorlig fatigue (gjennomsnittsskår ≥ 5), sammenlignet med rapportert nivå for den generelle befolkningen og noen kroniske tilstander. Kronisk smerte og arbeidstilknytning hadde signifikant assosiasjon til fatigue i multivariable analyser. Personer med smerte hadde høyere fatigueskår enn personer uten kronisk smerte. Personer som mottok trygdeytelser hadde høyere fatigue enn personer som var i arbeid/ under utdanning. Den endelige multivariable modellen forklarte 24 % av variasjonen i fatigueskår. Dette indikerer at det også er andre assosierte faktorer til opplevd fatigue hos voksne med MFS. Konklusjon: Personer med MFS har høyere grad av fatigue og høyere forekomst av alvorlig fatigue, sammenlignet med den generelle befolkningen og noen kroniske tilstander som rheumatoid artritt. I multivariable analyser var kronisk smerte og arbeidstilknytning de faktorene som var signifikant assosiert med fatigue. Det er behov for videre forskning om fatigue ved MFS.

  Aims: The aims for the present study is to investigate Sense of Coherence (SOC); the central concept in salutogenesis and its relation to people with psoriasis by exploring the effect on SOC as a result of climate therapy and investigate factors that predict change in SOC among people with psoriasis. Method: The present study has a prospective design, including a baseline assessment and one follow up in relation to a 3 week climate therapy program. A total of 254 adults with psoriasis participated. SOC was measured by the Sense of Coherence questionnaire (SOC-13), illness perception by using the Revised Illness Perception Questionnaire (IPQ-R) and positive and active engagement in life was measured by the positive and active engagement subscale from the Health Education Impact Questionnaire (HeiQ) (all Norwegian versions). To evaluate possible change in SOC score from baseline to follow-up paired samples T-test was performed. With regard to investigate the predictive value of illness perception versus positive and active engagement in life on SOC, multiple linear regression analysis was used. Results: SOC improved significantly before to after climate therapy. Results show a significant statistical change (p < 0.001) in SOC from baseline to follow-up with a difference of 2.6, (95% C.I: 1.6-3.6). Furthermore, the attitude of positive and active engagement in life (standardized beta coefficient .22, P =. 0.002) and illness perception –coherence dimension (standardized beta coefficient .15, P =. 0.04) predict change in SOC. Conclusion: This is the first study that investigates the effect on SOC as a result of climate therapy. SOC significantly improved before to after climate therapy. Further the results indicate that improving positive and active engagement in life and a coherent understanding of the illness might provide important opportunities to improve SOC among people with psoriasis. We need more studies that investigate SOC among people with psoriasis undergoing climate therapy and what factors that predict positive change in SOC.
