Abstract

Background Flatfoot is a musculoskeletal abnormality commonly found in children that could result in a reduction of quality of life because of its related symptoms and functional abnormalities. This study aimed to determine the association between flatfoot and the quality of life among children 5-18 years of age. Methods A cross sectional design was used in this study of children aged 5-18 years. The diagnosis of flatfoot was made in accordance with the Chippaux-Smirak Index classification, whereas general and domain-specific quality of life were measured using the Indonesian version of PedsQL™ that has been previously validated. Mann Whitney test was used to compare quality of life between children with flatfoot and normal feet, along with other variables that potentially may influence a child’s quality of life. Results A total of 79 out of 120 subjects was used to analyze the data. There was a statistically significant difference in the quality of life score in the school functioning domain between children with flatfoot (64.46 ±18.22) and those with normal feet (75.90 ±17.29) in children &lt;11 years of age (p=0.029). Apart from this, the study did not find any statistically significant differences in the total quality of life score or in other quality of life domains between the two groups. Conclusions Flatfoot significantly decreases children’s quality of life in the school functioning domain. Early detection and correction of flatfoot may be necessary to improve the educational attainment of children suffering from this condition.

Abstract

BackgroundSalat has been linked to physical, cognitive, emotional and psychological health benefits. This scoping review classifies the health benefits of salat based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) conceptual framework. The ICF illustrates how Salat may be used as a multi-modal and multidisciplinary framework to rehabilitate clients with different conditions tailored to their clinical, psychosocial and environmental contexts.PurposeTo conduct a scoping review on the health benefits of salat (muslim prayer) based on the ICF conceptual framework.MethodsA literature review was conducted from February to April 2023 using PubMed, EBSCO, and the Scopus Library databases. Articles published between 2012 and 2023 were retrieved using the following keywords: "impact" OR "effect" OR "health benefit" OR "functional outcome" AND "shalat" OR "Muslim prayer" OR "Salat”. Health benefits of salat were subsequently categorised into five domains of the ICF.ResultsA total of 596 articles were identified through PubMed (404), EBSCO (124), and Scopus (68).  Thirty-one records met the predefined inclusion criteria: 21 original articles, two systematic reviews, five literature reviews, one case study, one case series, and one short report. Salat had positive benefits on the cardiorespiratory, haematological, immunological, mental and neuromuscular functions. Salat may serve as a coping mechanism to reduce stress and depression. The frequency and duration of salat had positive associations with maintaining employment, social support and better quality of life.ConclusionSalat is associated with many health benefits, which can be categorised systematically and summarised using the ICF conceptual framework.
