About this study
Official title: Effects of Turkish Traditional Dances on Bone Mineral Density, Bone Turnover Markers, Balance, Aerobic Capacity and Quality of Life in Postmenopausal Osteopenic Women
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of regular Turkish regional dances, in addition to conventional exercises given with a home program, on the quality of life, balance, aerobic capacity, bone mineral density (femoral neck, total and lumbar L1-4 and L2-4 T scores) and bone turnover markers (Type 1 collagen C-telopeptide [CTX-1] and Serum Procollagen 1 N-terminal peptide [P1NP]) of postmenopausal osteopenic women aged 50-60 years. Our study also aims to evaluate the compliance of patients to the exercise programs given to postmenopausal osteopenic women.
-What is the effect of regular Turkish regional dances on balance, aerobic capacity, muscle strength, quality of life, Bone Mineral Densitometry and Bone Turnover Markers in postmenopausal osteopenic women?
Read the detailed description
Patients who meet the criteria of our study will first be divided into 2 different groups by a closed envelope drawing method performed by a clinic secretary who is not involved in the study. Both groups will be asked to do a home exercise program 3-5 days a week. This home program will include the movements in the attached exercise sheets (Warm-up, Cool-down, Balance and Strengthening exercises, which were created from the sheets taken from https://theros.org.uk). It will be shown by the physiotherapist at the beginning of the study.
In addition to home exercises, participants in the first group will be asked to dance to dance videos from various regions, lasting 30 minutes, at a tempo determined by the study team before the study.
The dance videos will consist of rhythmic and tempo Turkish Regional Dances such as horon, Ankara Dance Tunes, and halay varieties. These videos have been uploaded to the ''Osteopeni folk dances'' YouTube channel and the links to these videos will be shared with the participants. (The videos will be closed to access during the study and only the video link owners will be able to access these videos. Links https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxRTiZv_4GGMtNYzIuGVsde6T_bzLt0V\&si=W XRPO-GA1iWtGHuw, https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxRTiZv_4GGMVXcRx7uhntLdU4LtvmVC5\&si =nvxk1VGbPia04xQF, https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxRTiZv_4GGMccS_iYDW3I_ ODCODEdTx\&si=lD-7_fU1vWJ-ZQOn)
Before dancing, 10 minutes of warm-up, 30 minutes of dancing, and 10 minutes of cooling down exercises will be performed. It is planned that patients will dance at least 2 days a week for a minimum of 50 minutes. In addition, it is planned to reach a minimum of 150 minutes/week aerobic exercise target by having them walk briskly for at least 50 minutes once a week.
Participants in the 2nd group will not be prescribed dance, in addition to the home exercise program, they will be recommended to walk only 3 days a week, for a total of 150 minutes per week.
Participants in the 1st group will be given the FORM-1, and participants in the 2nd group will be given the FORM-2, and they will be asked to fill out these forms daily. The form-1 in will ask for the duration of the home exercises or Turkish folk dances that were performed that day. The form in FORM-2 will also ask for the duration of the home exercises that were performed that day. Both groups will also be given the FORM-3, and they will be asked to write down the complications that occurred during the daily exercise.
Only the study group (1st group) will be called monthly and issues such as whether the forms are filled out daily and compliance with the exercises will be discussed.

Normal bone mass is above -1 standard deviation point relative to the mean bone mineral density of the young adult reference population (T score -1 and above). Osteopenia (low bone mass) is when the bone mineral density is below -1 standard deviation score and above -2.5 standard deviation points compared to the average bone mineral density of the young adult reference population (T score between -1 and -2.5).

BALANCE
Static and balance indicators will be checked with Tecnobody PK 252 isokinetic balance measurement system and additionally functional reach test will be noted.
Measured: 3 and 6 months
muscle strength
Quadriceps muscle strength of the dominant side will be checked with the Lafayette device.
Measured: 3 and 6 months
aerobic capacity
Aerobic capacity will be measured with a 6-minute walk test
Measured: 3 and 6 months
quality of life measurement
Quality of life will be measured with the Quality Of Life Questionnaire of the European Foundation for Osteoporosis-41 (QUALEFFO-41) Scale.
QUALEFFO-41 consists of 5 subscales examining the five dimensions of health, such as pain (5 items), physical function (17 items), social function (7 items), general health assessment (3 items) and mental function (9 items). Validity and reliability for Turkish was done by Koçyiğit and his colleagues.
The answers to the questions in the QUALEFFO-41 scale are scored from 1 (healthy) to 5 (unhealthy) in the order of options. The section score and total score are calculated by transferring the scores to a measurement out of 100. For each subgroup and total result in the scale, a score of 0 indicates the best health status, while a score of 100 indicates the worst health status
Measured: 3 and 6 months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing DANCE GROUP and EXERCISE GROUP in people with Osteopenic Women, run by Ankara Etlik City Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Bone Turnover Markers(Type 1 collagen C-telopeptide) (time frame: 3 and 6 months). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
