Abstract In recent years, studies have found that Sarcopenia alters inflammatory biomarkers. However, the behavior of biomarkers at different stages is not well understood. This study aimed to compare a broad panel in older women Sarcopenia. The included 71 Brazilian community-dwelling women. Muscle Strength was assessed by using handgrip strength (Jamar dynamometer). Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) performed assess physical performance, and body composition DEXA. diagnosed...
The study objectives were to evaluate the effects of adding whole-body vibration squat training on functional performance and self-report disease in elderly individuals with knee osteoarthritis (OA).This was a prospective, randomized trial which selected variables evaluated at three periods: 3 weeks prior training, immediately prior, after end training.Twenty-three (23) subjects using four tests: Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Timed Get Up Go Test (TGUG), Chair Stand (CST), 6-Minute Walk (6MWT),...
Background: Osteoarthritis of the knee (kOA) is a chronic, progressive, degenerative health condition that contribute to imbalance between synthesis and destruction articular cartilage. Recently, whole body vibration (WBV) training has been recommended as an effective alternative for strength in elderly people various physiological effects are obtained response exercise performed on vibratory platform, such increase muscle activation improved performance. However, WBV particularly quadriceps...
Abstract Objective Chagas disease can cause several complications, such as cardiomyopathy, the most severe clinical form of disease. cardiomyopathy is complex and involves biological psychosocial factors that compromise health‐related quality life. However, it necessary to establish interactions significantly impact life this population. Therefore, we aimed develop present a theoretical model on patients. Methods This cross‐sectional study with multi‐methodology approach. The model's...
While physical performance is closely linked to cardiovascular health, further research essential elucidate the association of tests in early screening for risk (CVR), underscoring potential these assessments enhance preventive healthcare strategies. To investigate between Handgrip Strength (HGS) test and CVR women with obesity, as well evaluate predictive value HGS a tool this population. Fifty-five eligible aged 40 65 years, were studied. The Framingham Global Risk Score was used classify...
ABSTRACT Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is characterized by airway abnormalities, resulting in persistent airflow obstruction. Treatment involves pharmacological and nonpharmacological interventions which are supported several COPD consensus guidelines. YouTube can often be used to share information about treatments for chronic diseases like COPD; however, the credibility of such may not adequate. This study evaluates reliability concerning treatment disseminated on YouTube,...
RESUMO A Doença Pulmonar Obstrutiva Crônica (DPOC) é caracterizada por anormalidades das vias aéreas, resultando em obstrução persistente do fluxo aéreo. O tratamento dessa doença envolve intervenções apoiadas vários consensos e diretrizes sobre DPOC. YouTube pode muitas vezes ser utilizado para partilhar informações o de doenças crônicas, no entanto a credibilidade informação não adequada. Este estudo tem como objetivo avaliar confiabilidade relativas ao da DPOC YouTube, plataforma mídia...
BACKGROUND Chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy (CCC) is the most severe clinical form of disease. There a strong correlation between soluble tumor necrosis factor receptors (sTNFR1 and sTNFR2) cardiac functional parameters in CCC, but their prognostic value remains unknown. OBJECTIVE To verify sTNFR1 sTNFR2 CCC. METHODS A longitudinal study was conducted. Sixty-nine patients with CCC (53.70 ± 9.66 years, NYHA I-II) were submitted to blood collection echocardiography, followed for 43.81 1.21...
Objective Evaluate and compare the isolated combined effects of Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) Aerobic (AT) on respiratory functional parameters, inflamatory biomarkers, redox status health-related quality life (HRQoL) in hemodialysis patients. Methods A randomised controlled trial with factorial allocation intention-to-treat analysis was performed Volunteers were randomly assigned to performe 8-weeks IMT at 50% maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP), low intensity AT or training (CT). Before...
Certain cut-off points for sarcopenia screening and diagnosis are arbitrary based on European populations, with normative references often obtained from healthy young adults. Although respiratory skeletal muscle strength tests represent low-cost clinical measures commonly performed in practice by health professionals, a gap remains regarding whether adequate sensitive screening. This study aimed to verify the value of handgrip as possible discriminators identify establish community-dwelling,...
