    Pes planus is a condition that can cause pain along the innerfoot due to the absence or abnormal depression of the longitudinal arch. There are few studies available that compare therapy modalities used in these patients. In our study, those treated with conservative therapies-internal and external shoe modifications and pes planus exercises -were compared clinically and pedobarographyically. 60 pes planus patients were included in the study. In the first group; internal modification was performed by placing a medial longitudinal arch support inside the shoe. In the second group, external shoe modification was performed using the Thomas heel. In the third group of patients however, only an exercise program was executed. The patients' foot pain levels, functional asssessment, satisfaction and quality of life were recorded. Pedobarography was used in measuring both static and dynamic plantar pressure. Assessments were carried out at baseline and at the end of the first and third months respectively where intra-and inter-group comparisons were performed. Each group was composed of 20 subjects. While improvement in terms of foot pain, foot function index and quality of life was observed in all the study groups (p < 0.05), the most improvement was observed in the group of patients treated with internal modification (p < 0.016). This was followed by the external modification and the exercise groups respectively. No difference was observed between the internal and external modification groups in terms of patient satisfaction. Cross-sectionally; clinical assessments, pedobarographic analysis were correlated. The changes observed after static and dynamic pedobarographic studies were not significantly different between the study groups. At the end of the study it was observed that internal modification yielded the most significant clinical improvement. In the literature, there are limited publications comparing the conservative treatments with each other. In this study we aimed to compare the conservative treatments for flatfoot.

    The Effect of Disease Duration on Foot Plantar Pressure Values in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
    (Baycinar Medical Publ-Baycinar Tibbi Yayincilik, 2014) Tuna, Hakan; Birtane, Murat; Guldiken, Sibel; Soysal, Neslihan Atile; Taspinar, Ozgur; Sut, Necdet; Tastekin, Nurettin
    Objective: Diabetic foot problems and consequent ulceration in older patients are a major cause of morbidity and permanent disability. One of the major risk factors for ulceration is foot pressure changes. We, in this study, aimed to identify any relation between disease duration and plantar pressure of patients with type 2 diabetes. Material and Methods: This study was done on 168 feet of 84 diabetic patients. Demographic parameters and body mass index were noted. The patients were allocated according to disease duration as being more (Group 1) or less than 10 years (Group 2). Static and dynamic pedographic evaluation was performed for each of the patients, and results were compared between the groups. Results: The static pedobarographic evaluation revealed significantly higher forefoot plantar force percentage values in the left feet of patients in group 1. We found that peak phalanx pressure was significantly higher in the left foot, while the contact area was lower in the right foot of group 1 patients, by dynamic pedobarographic evaluation. Conclusion: Contact area decreases and peak pressure increases during walking in forefoot after 10 years of disease duration in type 2 diabetic patients.

    The effect of magnetic field therapy and electric stimulation on experimental burn healing
    (Baycinar Medical Publ-Baycinar Tibbi Yayincilik, 2019) Keskin, Yasar; Tastekin, Nurettin; Kanter, Mehmet; Top, Husamettin; Ozdemir, Ferda; Erboga, Mustafa; Taspinar, Ozgur
    Objectives: : In this study, we aimed to compare morphological and histological differences between magnetic field and electric stimulation therapies in an experimental burn injury model in rats. Materials and methods: Between February 2011 and July 2011, a total of 21 Sprague-Dawley female rats were used in this study. Second-degree burns were induced on the back areas of the rats. All rats were equally divided into three groups including seven in each: the first burn group was treated with antibacterial pomade (Group 1, control group); the second group was treated with both antibacterial pomade and pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (Group 2); and the third group was treated with antibacterial pomade and electric stimulation for 14 days (Group 3). Results: Earlier re-epithelialization, wound area contraction, reduction of edema, and hyperaemia were observed on gross examination in the pulsed electromagnetic fields and electric stimulation therapy groups compared to the control group. Neovascularization, collagen density, granulation tissue formation, cell proliferation, and inflammatory cell response of the pulsed electromagnetic fields and electric stimulation group increased, compared to the control group, in the histopathological evaluation (p<0.05). Conclusion: Our study results showed the positive healing effects of electric stimulation and pulsed electromagnetic fields on burn injury. Pulsed electromagnetic fields therapy produced more positive signs of healing than the electric stimulation group.
