Background/aim: To evaluate the effects of pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) on symptoms of overactive bladder (OAB) as well as uroflowmetry parameters and functional bladder capacity.Materials and methods: Fifty-nine female patients with OAB symptoms were included. Patients were assessed by SEAPI-QMM, uroflowmetry, and abdominal ultrasound. A specially designed PFMT program using a Pilates ball was generated for patients. The training period was 1-h sessions twice a week for 6 weeks and aerobic home exercises to be performed at home 4 or 5 times every other day. Following training, subjects were reevaluated for body mass index, SEAPI questionnaire, and uroflowmetry.Results: Initial mean SEAPI score, mean maximum and average flow rates, and mean voided volume were 9.8 ± 7.2, 29.8 ± 16.4 mL/s, 16.3 ± 8.7 mL/s, and 211.6 ± 173.5 mL, respectively. After completion of the training program, SEAPI scores improved significantly to 3.4 ± 6.4 (P < 0.05). Maximum and average flow rate results did not show significant changes, whereas voided volume seemed to have improved in conjunction with patients' symptom scores (Pearson correlation coefficient: 0.86). Conclusion:According to our results, we think that proper PFMT results in increase of functional bladder capacity as well as improvement in OAB symptoms and can be recommended as first-line therapy or in conjunction with medical therapy in severe cases.

In this study. The research was conducted with the aim of examining the visual reaction values of deaf elite wrestlers (D) and normally hearing elite wrestlers (H). To work. 9 deaf wrestlers (height 179,55±3,74, body weight 78±11, 09) and 9 normally hearing wrestlers who participated in national and international competition were voluntarily joined the research. All of the athletes who are deaf subjects consist of at least 55 dB hearing loss in both ears. The visual hand reaction values of the wrestlers were measured using the electronic reaction time meter Newtest 1000. In the study. all participants' dominant hand were right hand. The data were analyzed using the SPSS (Version 22.0) program. Independent T test was performed to determine the difference between the two groups in which the obtained data showed normal distribution. The significance level was evaluated as p <0.05. In the study findings. The average of right and left hand reaction timing between groups and between intergroup were similar. D group had significantly higher height and body weight averages than group N (P <0.05). As a result, deaf athletes have similar reaction times to normal athletes so it is seen that loss of hearing does not make a difference at least in the result of this study.

Aim: In the aim of this study is to examine the effects of 12-week boxing training once a week on some physical parameters. Material and Methods: In the study, 13 recreation students (age 19.04±8.15 years, weight 66.75±6.85kg, height 175.46±4.44cm) were participated. First of all, the height and weight measurements were taken, and then biceps diameter measurements were done to participants. After anthropometrics measurements, a standard 15-minute warm-up protocol was applied before the measurements followed by tests. Lastly standard 30 seconds push-up test, passive bar hang, right and left hands reaction time were applied to participants. Basic boxing training was given to the volunteers for a total of 2 hours per day in a week for 12 weeks. After the 12week boxing training program, the second measurements were made under the same conditions again and recorded. Results: The result of the study is that it was found that there was a significant change in some parameters of the individuals who did boxing training 1 day a week. A significant difference (p<0.05) was found in the right biceps' diameter of the group and the reaction time of the right hands of the group. Only a significant difference in the right arm was seen, it can be caused the majority of the group was right-handed. Conclusion: 12-week boxing training period was increased the number of push-ups and passive bar hanging times. As a result, one-day boxing training in a week for 12 weeks can improve individuals' abilities.

ÖZETMenstruasyon bayanların over fonksiyonlarındaki gelişmeler sonucu üreme yeteneğinin faaliyete başladığı bir yaşam sürecidir. Üreme fonksiyonunun gerçekleşmediğini gösterir özel bir durumdur.Yapılan çalışmanın amacı bayanlarda menstruasyon döneminde ve normal dönemdeki anaerobik gücün tespit edilerek, karşılaştırılıp iki dönem arasındaki farkı tespit etmek ve dolayısıyla tüm spor kamuoyuna bu konuyla ilgili bilimsel ve sağlıklı sonuçlar sunmaktır.Araştırma Selçuk Üniversitesi Beden Eğitimi ve Spor Yüksek Okulunda okuyan, menstruasyon dönemi ağrısız ve az ağrılı geçen, yaş ortalamaları 19,66 ve vücut ağırlığı ortalamaları 56,33 ve boy ortalamaları 164,6 olan 30 adet bayan öğrenci denek olarak seçilmiştir.Yapılan wingate test sonuçlarında elde edilen anaerobik güç ortalamaları "t" testi ile karşılaştırılmıştır.İki dönem arasında elde edilen parametrelerde farklılık gözlenirken, istatistiki açıdan anlamlı bir farklılık bulunamamıştır.Sonuç olarak menstruasyon ve normal dönemdeki anaerobik güç ölçüm sonuçlarında birbirine yakın değerlere rastlanmıştır ve menstrual dönemde anaerobik performans açısından olumsuz bir bulguya rastlanmamıştır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Menstruasyon, anaerobik EFFECT OF MENSTRUATION ON ANAEROBIC STRENGHT ABSTRACTMenstruation is life process in which female productivity begin to operate because of developments in the ovary functionings. It is a special instance indicating that the reproduction is not taking place.The objective of this project are to determine and compare the anaerobic stregth in females in the menstruating and nonmenstruating periods, to determine the difference between them ,and to inform the general sports community about this issue with scientific and reliable information .The project was undertaken at the School of Phyisical Education and Sport at Selcuk University. Thirty female students were selected as subjects from among those who have their menstruation without or little pain and whose avarege age , weight and height are respectively 19.66 yıs, 56.33 kg, 164.6 cm.The anaerobic stregth averages obtainedin the Wingate test were compares with the 't' test .While differences were obseved between parametres belonging to the two periods, these differences were meaningful from a statistical pointof wiew.As a result, because of the smilar findings in the menstrual and normal periods, no ngative effect on anaerobic strength of the menstrual period has been detected.
