Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Quality of life. Timepoint: Quality of life measurement before intervention and immediately and one months after intervention. Method of measurement: Quality of life questionnaire (SF-36).	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Functional capacity. Timepoint: Measurement of functional capacity before intervention and immediately and one months after intervention. Method of measurement: Evaluated by TUG, 2-10MWT, STS5-3, OLS tests.;Anthropometry. Timepoint: Measurement of anthropometric indicators before intervention and immediately and one months after intervention. Method of measurement: Measuring body dimensions in a static state, which includes height, weight, body mass index, waist circumference, pelvic circumference, waist-to-height ratio, waist-to-hip ratio, mass and body fat percentage of patients. Weight will be measured using a digital scale made in Iran with an accuracy of 100 grams, height, waist circumference, pelvic circumference using a tape measure made in Iran with an accuracy of 0.1 cm. Body fat percentage will be measured using the BIA by the OMRON BF-511.	—
