Background: It is well documented that cigarette smoking has negative impacts on body health, as well as social health, economy, culture, etc. Nowadays, there is a large body of evidence that smoking is the cause of numerous life-threatening diseases like cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases along with different kinds of cancer. The aim of this study was to compare the physical fitness of smok...
abstract background: the measurement of hand grip strength has several clinical applications to evaluate chronic hand disability, response to treatment, and work capacity after hand injury. methods: we measured hand grip strength of 41 adults and compared their maximum strength with radiographic indices. results: there was a significant relationship between hand grip strength and carpal height,...
Background: Several studies have examined the effects of resistance training on muscle strength of people with cerebral palsy. There is no study about effects of integration practices on children with cerebral palsy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of two months of resistive and balance training on extensor strength of the dominant hand and sit and rich of children with cerebra...
Low muscle strength is associated with mortality, presumably as a result of low muscle mass (sarcopenia) and physical inactivity. Grip strength was longitudinally collected in 1071 men over a 25-year period. Muscle mass was estimated by using 24-hour creatinine excretion and physical activity values, obtained by questionnaire. Survival analysis examined the impact of grip strength and rate of c...
Musculoskeletal disorders which are introduced with back pain are now the most common cause of chronic incapacity in industrialized countries. One of the important causes of low back pain is, spinal instability. A recent focus in the physiotherapy management of patients with back pain has been the active spinal stabilization exercises of muscles surrounding the spine considered to provi...
Purpose: Most studies have examined the effect of stretching and strength exercises on the glenohumeral joint (shoulder joint), on the other hand, due to the importance of the relationship between core stability and pectoral girdle, especially in archery athletes, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of six weeks of core stability exercises on the glenohumeral joint internal rota...
OBJECTIVES To examine whether low serum albumin is associated with low muscle strength and future decline in muscle strength in community-dwelling older men and women. DESIGN Population-based cohort study. SETTING The Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam. PARTICIPANTS Six hundred seventy-six women and 644 men aged 65 to 88. MEASUREMENTS Serum albumin was determined at baseline. Muscle str...
BACKGROUND Muscle morphology, age and gender may be determinants of muscle strength in older adults. However, very few research studies have directly examined such correlation in the ageing spine. The aim of the study was to examine the correlation between lumbar extensor muscle strength, its muscle fibre angles, thoracolumbar curvature, age and gender in the older and younger adults. METHODS...
Electrical stimulation of muscle is a commonly used, well-substantiated strategy that physical therapists use to augment strength in patients with muscle weakness. Two distinctly different theories of strength augmentation using percutaneous muscle stimulation are presented. The first theory proposes that augmentation of muscle strength with electrically elicited muscle contractions occurs in a...
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES There are very few studies that have investigated the muscle strength and endurance of upper limbs (UL) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We undertook this study to measure and compare the skeletal muscle strength and endurance of UL in COPD patients and age matched healthy controls and to study the association between lung function parameters and UL muscl...
