Fear of falling, gait capacity, and dual task performance in multiple sclerosis patients with and without neurogenic overactive bladder.

Background: Overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms significantly affect the independence and quality of life in patient with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) by limiting daily activities. This study aimed to explore differences in fear of falling (FoF), gait, dual-task performance, and self-perceived impact of disease among PwMS with and without OAB.

Method: Participants were divided into two groups based on their Overactive Bladder Questionnaire (OAB-V8) scores: OAB (score ≥ 8) and non-OAB (score < 8).

Cross-cultural adaptation, validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Cognitive Functioning Self-Assessment Scale (CFSS).

The Cognitive Functioning Self-Assessment Scale (CFSS) is a scale that enables individuals to assess their subjective cognitive performance. The study aimed to cross-culturally adapt the CFSS to Turkish (CFSS-TR) and prove its psychometric properties. The study included 180 community-dwelling adults over 18 years of age with no psychological or neurological disorders.

Reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the core lower urinary tract symptom score in multiple sclerosis.

Background: In multiple sclerosis, lower urinary tract symptoms are frequently observed depending on the site of involvement. A comprehensive assessment of these symptoms is crucial for their effective management.

Objective: This research was designed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Turkish adaptation of the Core Lower Urinary Tract Symptom Scale (CLSS) in patients with multiple sclerosis (PwMS).
