Brief Summary:
The study is designed as a cross-sectional clinical study A total of 156 postmenopausal women who visited the Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation outpatient clinic at Beylikdüzü State Hospital and have had Dual X-ray Absorptiometry DXA measurements taken within the last 6 months will be included The sociodemographic data of the patients will be recorded Femoral neck and lumbar L1-L4 T-scores and femoral neck bone mineral density BMD values obtained from DXA measurements will be collected To calculate fracture risk the percentages for major and hip fracture risks will be calculated using the Fracture Risk Assessment Tool FRAX The one-leg stance test used to assess static posture and balance and the 30-second sit-to-stand test used to evaluate endurance and lower extremity strength will be applied to the patients
Detailed Description:
This study is designed as a cross-sectional clinical investigation aimed at assessing fracture risk in postmenopausal women A total of 156 postmenopausal women who attended the Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation outpatient clinic at Beylikdüzü State Hospital and had undergone Dual X-ray Absorptiometry DXA measurements within the past six months will be included Sociodemographic data such as age weight height and medical history will be recorded for each participant
The study will gather femoral neck and lumbar L1-L4 T-scores as well as femoral neck bone mineral density BMD values obtained from DXA scans To evaluate the risk of fractures major and hip fracture percentages will be calculated using the Fracture Risk Assessment Tool FRAX a widely accepted method for predicting fracture risk in osteoporosis patients
Two functional tests will be applied the one-leg stance test which measures static balance and postural stability and the 30-second sit-to-stand test which assesses lower extremity strength and endurance These simple quick tests will be used to determine whether they can serve as practical predictors of fracture risk in postmenopausal patients The study aims to evaluate whether these two functional tests can provide rapid and effective fracture risk assessments in clinical practice offering a valuable tool for clinicians in identifying high-risk patients early and implementing preventive measures
