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 ...
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 ...
Gait speed as a mediator of the effect of sarcopenia on dependency in activities of daily living
(Wiley, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Sarcopenia in older adults is strongly associated with an increase in dependency in activities of daily living (ADL) and with a decline in gait speed. Interestingly, gait speed has been shown to independently ...
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 ...
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 ...
Physical activity trajectories, mortality, hospitalization, and disability in the Toledo Study of Healthy Aging
(Wiley, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Physical activity (PA) is a recognized contributor to healthy aging. However, the majority of studies exploring its associations with adverse outcomes in cohorts of older adults use single-time PA estimates, ...
Exercise as therapeutic agent to improve intrinsic capacity in older adults
(Asociación Española de Ciencias del Deporte, 2018)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Frailty has emerged as one of the most relevant clinical syndromes, due to its direct relationship with adverse health effects such as physical and functional decline and institutionalization. Physical inactivity has been ...
Muscle fitness to visceral fat ratio, metabolic syndrome and ideal cardiovascular health metrics
(MDPI, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
This study aimed to investigate the association between the muscle fitness to visceral fat level (MVF) ratio and the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics among college ...
Muscle strength cut-offs for the detection of metabolic syndrome in a nonrepresentative sample of collegiate students from Colombia
(Elsevier, 2018)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Evidence shows an association between grip strength and health; however, grip strength cut-offs for the detection of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in Latin American populations are scarce. The purpose of this study ...
Ejercicio físico en el anciano frágil: una manera eficaz de prevenir la dependencia
(Universidad Europea de Madrid, 2014)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Los beneficios del ejercicio físico en el envejecimiento y, específicamente, en la fragilidad han sido objeto de reciente investigación científica. En el anciano, la práctica de actividad física regular se asocia a una ...
