Brief Summary:
Core stabilization exercises developed by McGill have been shown to be one of the physiotherapy techniques aimed at reducing pain, increasing aerobic capacity, enhancing muscle strength, and thereby improving bone health in children with JIA. However, there is no study that has investigated core stabilization training for different types of JIA. In our study, we aim to compare the effectiveness of core stabilization training and a daily physical activity program in children with spondyloarthropathy, to help identify the most effective strategy for clinical practice. Additionally, highlighting the specific effects of core stabilization training on the treatment of juvenile spondyloarthropathy (pain, functional status, fatigue, and quality of life) will make a significant contribution to the literature.
Taking into account the gaps in the literature, our study will investigate the effect of core stabilization training on pain, functional status, fatigue, and quality of life in patients with juvenile spondyloarthropathy.

Detailed Description:
Core stabilization exercises are one of the physiotherapy techniques aimed at reducing pain, increasing aerobic capacity, enhancing muscle strength, and thereby improving bone health in children with JIA (1). Spondyloarthropathy typically begins as asymmetric oligoarthritis in children, and enthesitis and axial skeleton involvement may develop over the course of the disease (4). Since juvenile spondyloarthropathies can lead to severe functional impairments and long-term sequelae, the primary goal in treatment should be to suppress inflammation as early as possible and to prevent sequelae (5). Physiotherapy is recommended for children and adolescents with enthesitis or sacroiliitis, or those with functional limitations (6). Yoga exercises focusing on the core region have shown significant effects on lower extremity functional status, pain levels, and quality of life in patients with enthesitis-related conditions (2). Studies have supported that core stabilization exercises, combined with traditional physical therapy aimed at improving bone health status and functional capacity, serve as an effective combination therapy for children with JIA involving multiple joint involvement (3).
Therefore, this study aims to fill the knowledge gap regarding core stabilization training in children with spondyloarthropathy.
