Brief Summary

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

This study aims to evaluate kinesiophobia levels in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis compared to a healthy control group and to explore the relationships between kinesiophobia and various psychosocial factors, including quality of life, fear of falling, and symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Detailed Description

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

This cross-sectional, controlled study aims to explore kinesiophobia levels in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis compared to healthy age-matched controls. Postmenopausal osteoporosis is a systemic condition characterized by reduced bone mineral density, which increases fracture risk and can significantly affect individuals' physical activity and overall quality of life. Kinesiophobia, or the irrational fear of movement due to perceived injury risk, can further exacerbate this issue by restricting physical activity, which is vital for maintaining bone health. The study will involve 60 postmenopausal women diagnosed with osteoporosis and 60 healthy age-matched women without osteoporosis or osteopenia. Participants will be recruited from the outpatient clinics of İstanbul Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Training and Research Hospital between January 21, 2024, and February 21, 2024. The study will assess kinesiophobia using the Turkish version of the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK), quality of life with the Quality of Life Questionnaire of the European Foundation for Osteoporosis (QUALEFFO-41), and symptoms of depression and anxiety using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Additionally, the Tinetti Falls Efficacy Scale (TFES) will evaluate fear of falling, and bone mineral density will be measured using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA).
