Effects of exercise intervention on health-related physical fitness and blood pressure in preschool children: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
(Springer, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: No previous systematic review has quantitatively examined the effect of physical exercise interventions on health-related physical fitness and blood pressure in children younger than 6 years old. Objective: To ...
Effectiveness of HIIT compared to moderate continuous training in improving vascular parameters in inactive adults
(BMC, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Strong evidence shows that physical inactivity increases the risk of many adverse health conditions, including major non-communicable diseases, such as cardiovascular disease (CVD), metabolic syndrome, and ...
Changes in muscle power after usual care or early structured exercise intervention in acutely hospitalized older adults
(Wiley, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: A classic consequence of short-term bed rest in older adults is the significant loss in skeletal muscle mass and muscle strength that underlies the accelerated physical performance deficits. Structured exercise ...
Reference values for handgrip strength and their association with intrinsic capacity domains among older adults
(Wiley, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Objective The purposes of this study were three-fold: (i) to describe handgrip strength in older individuals aged >= 60 years in Colombia; (ii) to identify sex-specific and age-specific muscle weakness cut-off points in ...
Schoolbag weight carriage in Portuguese children and adolescents: a cross-sectional study comparing possible influencing factors
(BMC, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background Schoolbags and the consequences of carrying them, particularly those associated with overload, are often studied as a health concern. Modifications in gait and posture were reported when children carried loads ...
Effects of exercise interventions on inflammatory parameters in acutely hospitalized older patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
(MDPI, 2021)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to appraise the acute effects of exercise training on inflammatory parameters in hospitalized older adults. We conducted a systematic review using the Preferred ...
Can physical activity attenuate the negative association between sitting time and cognitive function among older adults? A mediation analysis
(Elsevier, 2018)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The purpose of this study was to examine the combined association of sitting time and physical activity with cognitive function and to determine whether moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) is a mediator of the ...
Cardiorespiratory fitness cut-points are related to body adiposity parameters in Latin American adolescents
(MDPI, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background and Objectives: A deficiency exists in the criterion-referenced cut-points for field-based cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in Latin American youths. The aims of the present study were two-fold: (1) To identify ...
Feasibility and reliability of physical fitness tests among Colombian preschool children
(MDPI, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The aim of the study was to assess the feasibility and reliability of physical fitness field tests used in the 'Fuprecol kids' study among Colombian preschool children aged 3-5 years. A total of 90 preschoolers aged 3-5 ...
Handgrip strength and its relationship with white blood cell count in U.S. adolescents
(MDPI, 2021)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: The role of muscular fitness (as a protecting factor for an optimal immune system) and WBC count remains unclear. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate the relationship between ...
