Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: Considering that there is no specifically designed scale to measure quality of life (QoL) and level of functioning among Turkish-speaking patients with thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS), the aim of this study was to adapt the Thoracic Outlet Syndrome Index (TOSI) to the Turkish language (TOSI-TR) and analyze its psychometric properties in patients with TOS.
UNASSIGNED: Thirty-nine patients with symptomatic TOS were included in the study. The participants were assessed using the following measures: the QuickDASH, the Western Ontario Rotator Cuff Index (WORC), and a visual analog scale (VAS). The psychometric properties of the TOSI-TR were examined in terms of test-retest reliability, construct validity, convergent validity, and feasibility.
UNASSIGNED: The ICC2,1 of the TOSI-TR was 0.949 (95% CI: 0.903-0.973). The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin value was found to be 0.716 with a significant result for Bartlett\'s sphericity test (p < 0.001). The TOSI-TR had a one-factor solution explaining 74.05% of the total variance. There was a significant correlation between TOSI-TR scores and QuickDASH (r = 0.762, p < 0.001), WORC (r =0.794, p < 0.001), and VAS (r = 0.663, p < 0.001) scores. The WORC and VAS scores were significant determinants of the TOSI-TR score, explaining 65.3% of the variance. There were no floor or ceiling effects.
UNASSIGNED: The TOSI-TR is a reliable, valid, and feasible questionnaire for the QoL and functional status in Turkish-speaking patients with TOS. We recommend this 15-item scale for optimal assessment in patients with TOS.

摘要：
■考虑到没有专门设计的量表来衡量讲土耳其语的胸廓出口综合征（TOS）患者的生活质量（QoL）和功能水平，这项研究的目的是使胸廓出口综合征指数（TOSI）适应土耳其语（TOSI-TR），并分析其在TOS患者中的心理测量特性。
■39例有症状的TOS患者被纳入研究。参与者使用以下措施进行评估：QuickDASH，西安大略省旋转袖带指数(WORC)，和视觉模拟量表(VAS)。根据重测可靠性检查了TOSI-TR的心理测量特性，构造效度，收敛有效性，和可行性。
■TOSI-TR的ICC2,1为0.949(95%CI:0.903-0.973)。Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin值为0.716,Bartlett球度试验结果显著(p<0.001)。TOSI-TR具有解释总方差的74.05%的单因素解。TOSI-TR评分与QuickDASH有显著相关性(r=0.762,p<0.001),WORC(r=0.794，p<0.001)，和VAS(r=0.663,p<0.001)评分。WORC和VAS评分是TOSI-TR评分的重要决定因素，解释了65.3%的方差。没有地板或天花板的影响。
■TOSI-TR是一种可靠的，有效,土耳其语TOS患者的QoL和功能状态的可行问卷。我们建议使用此15项量表对TOS患者进行最佳评估。
