However, effect composition a ludic-motor concurrent proposal adults Down syndrome not quantified yet. The aim this study was to determine program based motor games indicators cardiometabolic risk schooled male syndrome. Methods: sample is composed 15 from Chile. Body variables such as mass index, waist circumference, height ratio, skin folds,...
The accumulation of body fat is an important cardiometabolic risk factor; however, there no consensus about which measure more reliable for the assessment in people with intellectual disabilities. aim present study was to primarily validate submandibular skinfold as anthropometric measurement children, adolescents, and adults disabilities, using a cross-sectional made up 131 (67.2% men) mild moderate disability. indicators used were: mass index (kg/m2), neck circumference (cm), waist calf...
Lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted social, psychological, and physical well-being of world population. In case people with intellectual disabilities, impact lockdown on their condition functionality is not completely clear. This study aimed determine effects anthropometric indicators cardiometabolic risk, muscle strength, schoolchildren disabilities. The sample was composed 132 students both sexes (n = 74 pre-lockdown; n 58 lockdown) belonging two special education...
Handgrip strength is a simple measure of general muscle and related to functionality in people with intellectual disabilities. The objective this research was describe the normative values absolute relative handgrip children, adolescents adults according sex. sample made up 264 schoolchildren (n = 168 men) belonging five special education schools Santiago Chile. results show higher levels males compared females. maximum peak manual reached females adolescence decrease adulthood.
