    Aim: Physical inactivity is associated with the increased incidence of hospitalizations, increased risk of mortality due to heart diseases in hemodialysis patients. The aim of study was to evaluate the functional and physical activity levels of chronic renal failure patients receiving hemodialysis treatment. Material and Methods: 96 of whom were hemodialysis patients (63,22 ± 12,84 years) and 107 (51,07 ± 8,33 years) healthy people, participated to the study. The functional activity level was assessed with the Human Activity Profile. The level of physical activity was determined with the Turkish version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form. Results: When the hemodialysis patients and the control group were compared in terms of the functional activity and physical activity level after controlled the age variable, Maximum Activity Score (MAS) and the Adjusted Activity Score (AAS) values and Turkish version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) levels of the hemodialysis group were significantly lower (p<0.05). When the activity levels of the hemodialysis group were compared by gender, the Adjusted Activity Score values of females were significantly lower (p<0.05), and the Turkish version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form daily activity levels and Maximum Activity Score values were similar (p> 0.05). Conclusion: The functional and physical activity levels of chronic renal patients receiving hemodialysis treatment were significantly lower. We believe that the results of our study give a small idea of the possible functional limitations and physical inactivity of the dialysis patients in our country.

    Evaluation of the functional capacity, respiratory functions and musculoskeletal systems of the children with chest pain for non-cardiac reasons
    (Turkish J Pediatrics, 2017) Daskapan, Arzu; Sanli, Cihat; Aydogan-Arslan, Saniye; Ciledag-Ozdemir, Filiz; Korkem, Duygu; Kara, Ugurcan
    Chronic chest pain in healthy children and adolescents generally arises from non-cardiac factors. The purpose of our study was to compare the evaluation results of effort test, respiratory function and musculoskeletal system in children and adolescents with chest pain for non-cardiac reasons with healthy children and adolescents. Physical activity level was determined by the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. The respiratory function test was performed using a spirometer. The posture analysis was performed to determine the upper body deformities. The effort test was performed on a treadmill. The two groups were similar in terms of the physical activity levels, respiratory function and effort test results (p>0.05). The rate of the rounded shoulder, kyphosis was significantly higher in the patient group with chest pain (p<0.005). Consequently, the musculoskeletal system findings including the pectoralis minor shortness, rounded shoulder, and thoracic kyphosis could have a role in non-cardiac chest pain.
