Summary

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, autoimmune and neurodegenerative disease characterized by inflammation and progressive demyelination of the central nervous system. It is characterized by muscle weakness, balance and coordination disorder, which is more common in the lower extremities and trunk muscles. Over time, these symptoms decrease the individual's level of physical activity, mobility and quality of life, leading to further deterioration of the disorder. One of the most important problems that cause these problems in individuals with MS is reduced core stabilization. Decrease in core stabilization affects the quality of limb movements as well as trunk stability when considering the kinetic chain in the body. Pilates-based core stabilization training (PBCST) are a controlled exercise form used to improve the stabilization of trunk muscles. There are no studies on the effect of this training on lower extremity isokinetic muscle strength in individuals with MS. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of PBCST on lower extremity muscle strength, postural sway and kinetic chain in individuals with MS.
