Method: Semantic network analysis was conducted using the titles of 272 articles published in the Journal of IAPTR from 2001 to 2010.
Results: Frequency analysis revealed following most frequently used key words; Stroke (27 times), Balance (21 times), Elder (13 times), Forward head posture (FHP, 11 times), Muscle activity (9 times). The relationship between the presented keywords is divided into six subgroups (FHP and pain, walk and quality, elder and balance, stroke and apoptosis, muscle strength and function) according to their correlation and frequency to be used together.
Conclusion: The study is considered to be of help to researchers who want to identify research trends in physiotherapy.
