“…Few studies have stated that the cultural activities such as squatting and kneeling along with a maximum knee flexion range of motion are common in the Middle East, [27,28] linked to knee OA and such cultural activities lead to the development of knee osteoarthritis [29]. Our sports/rec domain values with an older age group are nearly similar to the values produced in a KOOS cross-cultural study conducted recently by Ateef M et al (2017) in India [30]. One Japanese study by Zhang Y.…”

Background: Several studies have evaluated the effects of knee osteoarthritis on general and specific activities of the population using various health-related questionnaires in their original/native form, but very few have reported in Saudi Arabian population using Arabic versions. The target of the study is to observe the degree of knee difficulties during pivoting, kneeling and squatting in bilateral knee osteoarthritis male patients using disease-specific Arabic Version Knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score physical function (KOOS-PS) short form questionnaire in Saudi Arabian population. Methods:A cross-sectional study exploring 109 male primary bilateral knee osteoarthritis patients in Saudi Arabia. Subjects were assigned to three different groups based on their age after meeting the American College of Rheumatology criteria. Demographic data were obtained, and subjects were asked to rate their degree of knee difficulty during pivoting, kneeling and squatting activities using the disease-specific Arabic short-form questionnaire. Results:The statistical description introduced in the mean, standard deviation, median, 95% confidence interval (95% CI). The statistical parameters such as mean and standard deviations were 84.08±8.81, 76.58±11.49, 28.05 ± 8.4 in the three age groups such as 50-60, 61 to 70 and above 70 years old along with 95% confidence intervals 78. 2-84, 72.6-80.47, and 25.17-30.94 respectively. The statistical significance found between 50-60years and above 70years p < 0.001, 61-70years and above 70years p < 0.001 but statistical insignificance found between 50-60years and 61-70years age groups p < 0.14. Conclusion:High degree of knee difficulty has been observed in male bilateral knee osteoarthritis during pivoting, kneeling and squatting activities among 61-70years and above 70years of age groups.

“…The developer of the KOOS-Short Form (12 items) have recently stated that different short forms with diverse content provide domain specific joint impact scores ( Gandek et al, 2019a ; Gandek et al, 2019b ) which supports the concept of Arabic KOOS-PF cultural adaptation and validation. One KOOS-Urdu validation study ( Ateef, Kulandaivelan & Alqahtani, 2017 ) also supports this Arabic KOOS-PF stiffness (PF1) Cronbach’s alpha (0.81) where it was marginally higher than their symptom Cronbach’s alpha 0.788. The other two item domains (pain, 0.87 and QOL, 0.72) are supporting the results keeping the values within the standard psychometric values ( Terwee et al, 2007 ).…”

“…The Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) of KOOS-PF was 0.959 and higher to the symptom domain 0.94 (corresponding to Arabic KOOS-PF1), pain domain 0.93 (corresponding to Arabic KOOS-PF2-10) and QOL domain 0.93 (corresponding to Arabic KOOS-PF11) of long-form of KOOS Arabic version ( Alfadhel et al, 2018 ). The Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) of KOOS-PF was 0.959 and similar to the symptom domain 0.96 (corresponding to Arabic KOOS-PF1), lower to pain domain 0.978 (corresponding to Arabic KOOS-PF2-10) and similar to QOL domain 0.968 (corresponding to Arabic KOOS-PF11) in long-form of KOOS Urdu version of India ( Ateef, Kulandaivelan & Alqahtani, 2017 ).…”

Background No Arabic or its dialect questionnaire is available to evaluate the anterior knee pain in the Saudi Arabian religious population. This study aims to translate, adapt, and psychometrically validate the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS-PF) Patellofemoral scale in the Arabic language in Saudi Arabic dialect. Method Translation has been done as per standard guidelines. The questionnaire was administered to 95 patients to determine the psychometric properties including on two different occasions, with a 48-hour gap in-between; to ensure that their answers were reliable; 84 patients (88.4% compliance rate) responded for test and retest reliability, ceiling-floor effects, validity and other psychometric criteria. Results Cronbach’s alpha (internal consistency) and test–retest reliability was good and excellent (∞ = 0.81; ICC > 0.95). None of the items showed >30% floor or ceiling effect and the minimal detectable change was within the acceptable range (<30%). The KOOS-PF subscale showed a moderate correlation (−0.568) with pain-visual analog scale for its construct validity. Conclusion The Arabic dialect of KOOS-PFis reliable and valid to be used to evaluate isolated knee pain of patellofemoral origin in Muslim patients in Saudi Arabia.

Background: The most common assessment tool used in clinical settings to detect changes in balance performance is the Berg Balance Scale (BBS). Thus, the purpose of this study was to translate the BBS into Urdu and investigate the psychometric properties (acceptability, internal consistency reliability, interrater reliability, construct validity) for individuals with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Methods: Eighty patients of either gender with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease, stages I–III on the modified Hoehn–Yahr (H&Y) scale, with intact cognition according to the Mini Mental Score Examination (MMSE) score (greater than or equal to 24) and independent of transfers, were included in this study. The BBS was translated according to international guidelines based on forward and backward translation processes. The test-retest reliability as well as intra- and inter-observer reliability was assessed by calculating the intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC). The internal consistency of the entire BBS score was assessed by calculating Cronbach’s α. The convergent validity was assessed by correlating the scale with the Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) parts II and III and the Activity-specific Balance Confidence Scale (ABCS). The construct validity was assessed using a factor analysis. Results: The mean age of the subjects was 62.35 ± 5.74 in years (range: 60–87 years). The ICC for intra- and inter-observer reliability was 0.95 (p < 0.0001) and 0.99 (p < 0.001), respectively. Cronbach’s α was calculated as 0.81, which showed acceptable internal consistency of the Urdu version of the BBS. The test-retest reliability (ICC) of the Urdu version of the BBS was determined as 0.97 for the total score, and ranged from 0.66–0.95 for individual items. In terms of validity, the Urdu version of the BBS was correlated with the ABCS (in the positive direction) and UPDRS-II and III (in the negative direction) (r = 0.53, p < 0.001; r = −0.68, p < 0.001, r = −0.78, p < 0.0001), respectively. Conclusion: The Urdu version of the BBS is a reliable and valid scale to be used in balance assessment of population diagnosed with PD with excellent psychometric properties.
