Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Osteoporosis is a condition that describes compromised skeletal microarchitecture in general, with clinical signs of decreased bone mineral density. Multiple sclerosis patients are at increased risk for developing osteoporosis. Identifying whether multiple sclerosis patients have information and awareness about this disease is crucial. This study is aimed to investigate awareness and knowledge of osteoporosis in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. The study also aimed to assess potential differences and correlations in osteoporosis knowledge and awareness among MS patients based on gender, education levels, and risk of falls

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Osteoporosis is a common disease of bone loss. The reduced bone strength predisposes an increased risk for fractures in older individuals. It can affect people from different ethnicity. Many factors increase the risk of osteoporosis, including age, postmenopausal state, glucocorticoid use, low body weight, calcium, vitamin D, immobility, and chronic inflammation. Patients with multiple sclerosis are at high risk of developing osteoporosis due to chronic inflammation and their medications. Patients' knowledge and awareness about osteoporosis are essential for early detection, implementation of lifestyle changes, and treatment compliance. This study aimed to investigate osteoporosis awareness and knowledge about osteoporosis in patients with multiple sclerosis.The study also aimed to assess potential differences and correlations in osteoporosis knowledge and awareness among MS patients based on gender, education levels, and risk of falls

Patient Participation Form

Intervention Type OTHER

A form that consists of revised osteoporosis knowledge test and osteoporosis awareness scale

Timed up - and - go test

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

. The timed up-and-go test involves rising from a seated position, walking a distance of 3 meters, pivoting, returning to the initial point, and resuming a sitting position. It demonstrates strong inter-rater and intra-rater reliability, offering a reliable means of quantifying functional mobility and balance.
