Normative values for the short physical performance battery (SPPB) and their association with anthropometric variables in older Colombian adults. The SABE Study, 2015
(Frontiers Media, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: The short physical performance battery (SPPB) is a physical performance test of lower extremity function designed for non-disabled older adults. We aimed to establish reference values for community-dwelling ...
Higher cardiorespiratory fitness levels may attenuate the detrimental association between weight status, metabolic phenotype and C-reactive protein in adolescents—a multi-cohort study
(MDPI, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Results from several studies show that only obese, unfit subjects, but not obese, fit subjects, are at higher mortality risk than are normal-weight fit subjects. The aim of the study was two-fold: (1) to examine the ...
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 ...
Normal-weight obesity is associated with poorer cardiometabolic profile and lower physical fitness levels in children and adolescents
(MDPI, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Normal-weight obesity (NWO) syndrome has been shown to be associated with cardiometabolic dysfunction. However, little is known regarding this potential relationship in Latin American children and adolescents. The aim of ...
Relative handgrip strength diminishes the negative effects of excess adiposity on dependence in older adults: a moderation analysis
(MDPI, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The adverse effects of fat mass on functional dependence might be attenuated or worsened, depending on the level of muscular strength. The aim of this study was to determine (i) the detrimental effect of excess adiposity ...
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 ...
Handgrip strength attenuates the adverse effects of overweight on cardiometabolic risk factors among collegiate students but not in individuals with higher fat levels
(Nature Research, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The aims of this study are to (i) examine a clustered metabolic syndrome composite score (MetScore) and fatness among college students across body mass index (BMI) categories, and (ii) determine whether fit individuals ...
Effects of exercise training on glycaemic control in youths with type 1 diabetes: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Artículo / Artikulua,
The aim of the study is to evaluate whether exercise interventions are associated with improved
glycaemic control in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), and to
examine its relationship with the ...
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 ...
