Abstract Background Postpartum runners report musculoskeletal pain with running. Because of inadequate research, little is known about the origin and pain-related classification. Through expert consensus, this study is the first attempt to understand the musculoskeletal impairments that these runners present with. The objective of this survey was to gather expert consensus on characteristics of reported impairments in postpartum runners that have musculoskeletal pain. Methods A web-based Delphi survey was conducted and was composed of five categories: strength, range of motion, alignment and flexibility impairments, as well as risk factors for pain in postpartum runners. Results A total of 117 experts were invited. Forty-five experts completed round I and forty-one completed rounds II and III. The strength impairments that reached consensus were abdominal, hip and pelvic floor muscle weakness. The range of motion impairments that reached consensus were hip extension restriction, anterior pelvic tilt and general hypermobility. The alignment impairments that reached consensus were a Trendelenburg sign, dynamic knee valgus, lumbar lordosis, over-pronation and thoracic kyphosis. The flexibility impairments that reached consensus were abdominal wall laxity, and tightness in hip flexors, lumbar extensors, iliotibial band and hamstrings. The risk factors for pain in postpartum runners were muscular imbalance, poor lumbopelvic control, too much too soon, life stressors, pain during pregnancy and pelvic floor trauma. Conclusion This study presents a framework for clinicians to understand pain in postpartum runners and that can be investigated in future cohort studies. Level of evidence 5

Objective We sought to investigate whether women present adequate knowledge of the main pelvic floor disorders (PFDs) (urinary incontinence – UI, fecal incontinence – FI, and pelvic organ prolapse – POP). Data sources A systematic review was performed in the MEDLINE, PEDro, CENTRAL, and Cochrane databases for publications from inception to April 2018. Selection of studies A total of 3,125 studies were reviewed. Meta-analysis was not possible due to the heterogeneity of primary outcomes and the diversity of instruments for measuring knowledge. The quality of the articles included in the analysis was evaluated with the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) adapted for cross-sectional studies. Data collection Two authors performed data extraction into a standardized spreadsheet. Data synthesis Nineteen studies were included, comprising 11,512 women. About the methodological quality (NOS), most of the studies (n = 11) presented a total score of 6 out of 10. Validated questionnaires and designed pilot-tested forms were the most frequently used ways of assessing knowledge. Some studies were stratified by race, age, or group minorities. The most used questionnaire was the prolapse and incontinence knowledge questionnaire (PIKQ) (n = 5). Knowledge and/or awareness regarding PFD was low to moderate among the studies. Urinary incontinence was the most prevalent PFD investigated, and the most important risk factors associated with the lack of knowledge of the pelvic floor were: African-American ethnicity (n = 3), low educational level (n = 4), low access to information (n = 5) and socioeconomic status (n = 3). Conclusion Most women have a gap in the knowledge of pelvic floor muscle dysfunctions, do not understand their treatment options, and are not able to identify risk factors for these disorders.

<p><strong>Objective:</strong> The aim of this study was to assess whether cigarette smoking weakens the pelvic floor and to determine its effective impact relative to other factors.</p><p><strong>Study Design:</strong> Between September 2017 and September 2018, 250 patients admitted to an outpatient gynecology clinic were examined by a single physician and their anamnesis was taken. As a result of the examination, the pelvic floor muscle strength was evaluated according to the Modified Oxford Scale and the patients evaluated as 1/5 and 2/5 were grouped as having weak muscle strength and the rest were grouped as having high muscle strength. The intention was then to compare these two groups. The SPSS 21.0 for Windows program was used to perform statistical evaluations. Comparative analysis was performed with regression analysis.</p><p><strong>Results:</strong> 250 women participated in the study. 4 patients had muscle strength of 1/5; while 40 patients had muscle strength of 2/5 (17.6%). Patients with muscle strength of 1/5 and 2/5 were grouped as weak muscle strength. Advanced age, increased parity, smoking, and obesity are risk factors for a decrease in pelvic floor muscle strength (p &lt; 0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis was performed to determine which of these factors has the greatest impact on pelvic floor muscle strength. Smoking has a 7-fold effect on decreased muscle strength (OR: 7.925) and obesity has a 5-fold impact (OR: 5.374).</p><p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Although the mechanism of the effect of cigarette smoking on the pelvic floor is not known, it should be remembered that this effect has an adverse impact together with other factors which also have proven detrimental effects.</p>

Abstract Introduction and Hypothesis To evaluate the pelvic floor muscle function (PFMF) of cervical cancer patients after type QM-C hysterectomy and to explore the relationship between decreased PFMF and related factors.. Methods This was a multi-centered retrospective cohort study. 181 cervical cancer patients underwent type QM-C hysterectomy were enrolled from 9 tertiary hospitals. Strength of PFMF were measured by using neuromuscular apparatus (Phenix U8, French). Risk factors contributed to decreased PFMF was analyzed by univariate and multivariate ordinal ploytomous logistic regression. Results Totally 181 patients were investigated in this study.0-3 level of type I muscle fibre strength(MFSI) was 52.6%(95/181),0-3 level of type ⅡA muscle fibre strength(MFSⅡA) was 50%(91/181). Subjective stress urinary incontinence was 46%(84/181),urinary retention was 27.3%(50/181),dyschezia was 41.5%(75/181),fecal incontinence was 9%(18/181).①MFSI:Multivariate ordinal ploytomous logistic regression shows that the follow-up time(p<0.05),chemotherapy and radiotherapy (p=0.038) are independent risk factors of MFSI’s reduction after type QM-C hysterectomy.② MFSⅡA:Multivariate ordinal ploytomous logistic regression shows that the follow-up time(p<0.05) are independent risk factors of MFSⅡA’s reduction after type QM-C hysterectomy. The pelvic floor muscle strength(PFMS) increased after 9 months than in 9 months after operation, which showed that the PFMS could be recovered after operation. Conclusions We advocate for more attention and emphasis on the PFMF of Chinese female patients with cervical cancer postoperation. Contribution of the Paper The key messages of the article is that PFMF after QM-C hysterectomy have not been analyzed by current study.The new knowledge added by this study is that 3 months after radical hysterectomy patients’ should do pelvic floor rehabilitation exercises.

The literature review presents domestic and foreign data on the relationship between pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) and cervical diseases found in PubMed, Scopus, Embase and eLibrary systems over the past 10 years. This relationship is mainly realized due to alterations in vaginal biocenosis as the earliest clinical manifestation of PFD. The article describes PFD prevalence, classification, and risk factors for PFD. It also describes main methods of treatment and their side effects. The article provides data on changes in the vaginal biocenosis in PFD. Attention is paid to the risk for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical cancer in PFD.
