Our aim was to evaluate whether or not alcohol consumption in the form of binge drinking is associated with alterations memory and executive functions a population university students. At same time, we have studied role potential modulating factors, such as APOE genotype physical exercise.University students enrolled academic year 2013-2014 at Escuelas Universitarias Gimbernat-Cantabria, affiliated University Cantabria, were invited participate study. We gathered sociodemographic data...
Background In recent years, the study of benefits that physical exercise has on brain health acquired special relevance. order to implement as an intervention protect brain, it is important have a more clear idea its effect in young population. However, there are few studies carried out these ages. Objective The main objective our was evaluate association between activity (PA) with memory and executive function, university students, analyzing modulatory sex. Methodology We collected...
There is a need for biomarkers to monitor the earliest phases of Parkinson's disease (PD), especially in premotor stages. Here, we studied whether there are early gait alterations carriers G2019S mutation LRRK2 that can be detected by means an inertial sensor system.Twenty-one idiopathic PD patients, 20 LRRK2-G2019S PD, 27 asymptomatic (AsG2019S) and 36 controls walked equipped with 16 lightweight sensors three different experiments: i/normal gait, ii/fast iii/dual-task gait. In AsG2019S...
Depression is a mental disorder that causes great discomfort, associated with unhealthy lifestyle habits, and affects the quality of life. People pain show high depressive symptoms prevalence physical inactivity. This study aimed to analyse associations between depression (self-reported depression, status, symptoms, types) activity frequency (PAF) in leisure time middle-aged older people different levels (low, medium, severe) living Spain. A cross-sectional based on European Health Survey...
(1) Background: Fibromyalgia (FM) is a syndrome marked by chronic widespread pain, fatigue, sleep issues, and other symptoms. Interventions like physical exercise can potentially enhance function in individuals with FM. This study aimed to assess function, perceived fitness, balance confidence, fear of falling women FM based on their levels depression, problems. (2) Methods: Participants underwent series tests questionnaires evaluate perceptual aspects. These included the Time Up Go, Four...
To analyze how balance and other physical capacities evolved after surgery in patients with a bimalleolar fracture these clinical variables (immobilization or unloading time) contribute to restoring patients' functionality, 22 10 healthy people (HC) were assessed for static dynamic (Y-Balance test, YBT), dorsiflexion ankle mobility (ADFROM) hip strength at 6 12 months surgery. Patients' functional status was through the Olerud Molander Ankle Score (OMAS) American Orthopaedic Foot Society...
Introduction. One third of the world’s population suffers from some form pain. Physical inactivity is one causes that reduces physical fitness and may lead to an increase in prevalence pain population. Aims. To analyse relationships between level activity (PAL) degree pain, limitations impact on daily activities use medication Spanish Hypothesis. PAL related among Spaniards. Methodology. A cross-sectional study design was used, based data obtained National Health Survey 2017 with 17,777...
Introduction Trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis (TMC OA) is a common condition frequently related to instability and hypermobility. Many factors are involved in the development of this degenerative process. Recent research suggests that position metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint may influence TMC contact wear patterns subsequent OA. The aim study explore alignment MCP thumb during lateral pinch order describe naturally occurring group healthy volunteers without symptoms. Methods One hundred...
Ankle fractures can cause significant functional impairment in the short and long term. In recent years, gait analysis using inertial sensors has gained special relevance as a reliable measurement system. This study aimed to evaluate differences spatiotemporal parameters clinical−functional measurements patients with bimalleolar ankle fracture healthy subjects, correlation between different variables, analyze test−retest reliability of single sensor our population. Twenty-two subjects six...
There is a global ageing of the world's population. Ageing associated with multiple pathologies, reductions in physical activity, and losses cognitive function. This study aimed to analyse associations between frequency leisure-time activity (PAF) middle-aged Spaniards subjective limitations (SCLs): self-reported problems for remembering or concentrating (data extracted from 2017 National Health Survey 2020 European Spain). Furthermore, evaluate risk factors that could be related higher...
: Habits including regular physical activity are necessary for maintaining good health. Functional mobility, walking and going up down stairs, is essential personal autonomy well-being. Pain a condition related to biological psychosocial aspects that influence people's lives.
Ankle fractures can lead to issues such as limited dorsiflexion, strength deficits, swelling, stiffness, balance disorders, and functional limitations, which complicate daily activities. This study aimed describe neuromuscular adaptations at 6 12 months post-surgery during static dynamic tasks, specifically using the Y-Balance Test (YBT). Additionally, relationship between patterns, balance, musculoskeletal deficits was evaluated. In 21 participants (14 months) with bimalleolar fractures,...
Background Physical inactivity has been identified as a risk factor for pain. Objective The main objective was to analyze the relationships between leisure time physical activity frequency (PAF) and pain prevalence, level, impairment, daily life analgesic use in Spanish adults. In addition, factors such sex, body mass index, marital status social class were assessed these variables addition PAF. Method Cross-sectional study based on data from 2014 2020 European Health Surveys Spain...
Recovery after ankle fracture surgery can be slow and even present functional deficits in the long term, so it is essential to monitor rehabilitation process objectively detect which parameters are recovered earlier or later. The aim of this study was (1) evaluate dynamic plantar pressure status patients with bimalleolar 6 12 months surgery, (2) their degree correlation previously collected clinical variables. Twenty-two subjects fractures eleven healthy were included study. Data collection...
Abstract Background: Ankle fractures can cause significant functional impairment in the short and long term. In recent years, gait analysis using inertial sensors has gained special relevance as a reliable measurement system. Objectives: patients with bimalleolar ankle fracture, to identify differences between operated healthy spatial-temporal parameters plantar pressures; likewise, study their relationship clinical scales. Finally, assess reliability of single sensor, placed on lumbar...
Population growth and physical inactivity have led to health social consequences derived from chronic diseases decreased quality of life in the elderly. Some research suggests that overweight older people may not be associated with negative effects on some indicators. This study analysed associations between Self-Perceived Health (SPH), Depression status, Pain Level, Body Mass Index (BMI) over 70 years who are residents Spain, a final sample composed 13,895 participants. A cross-sectional...
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is often detected only in later stages, when about 50% of nigrostriatal dopaminergic projections have already been lost. Thus, there a need for biomarkers to monitor the earliest phases, especially those that are at higher risk. In this work, we explore use machine learning methods diagnose PD by analyzing gait alterations via an inertial sensors system participants study wear while walking down 15 m long corridor three different scenarios. To achieve goal, trained...
