Filter by:Globally, the prevalence of total joint replacement (TKR) procedures has been rising, providing patients with better joint function, decreased pain, and enhanced quality of life. A thorough and successful postoperative rehabilitation program, which attempts to restore optimal function and lower the risk of problems related to the treatment, is necessary for the success of total knee replacement (TKR) procedures. After total knee replacement, postoperative rehabilitation is a crucial stage in the patient's healing process. Normal knee function is frequently hampered by issues like pain management, muscular weakness, joint stiffness, and proprioceptive deficiencies. Therefore, choosing a suitable rehabilitation regimen is crucial.
Menopause is a period of time with increased risk for muscle and bone loss. Very few people strength train regularly at least 2 times per week, and commonly reported barriers include inadequate time and resources, worries of safety, inadequate knowledge base of what moves to do and how to do them. Menopause-aged women may report unique barriers - or perceived facilitators - to strength training. This pilot study will develop and test the feasibility and acceptability of an at-home, band-based, expert-supported strength training intervention.
The purpose of this study is to collect preliminary data on the feasibility, acceptability, and potential effects of a novel, remotely delivered resistance training program.
Breast cancer stands as the foremost cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide, with the highest incidence of any cancer type. The choice of therapeutic interventions hinges upon factors like cancer stage, cell subtype, and tumor size. Consequently, individuals with more aggressive tumors, such as HER+2 and Triple Negative, or larger tumors often undergo neoadjuvant chemotherapy before breast surgery. However, these anticancer treatments come with side effects like cancer-related fatigue, reduced functional capacity, and changes in body composition, notably skeletal muscle atrophy. Skeletal muscle loss correlates with heightened mortality rates, cardiotoxicity, and diminished quality of life, underscoring the need for early therapeutic interventions. One such promising strategy is prehabilitation, which involves resistance-exercise training aimed at bolstering skeletal muscle mass from the outset of the disease, even preceding breast surgery. Resistance-exercise training has shown favorable effects on women undergoing adjuvant therapy or survivors of breast cancer, however, its molecular and clinical effects in women with breast cancer undergoing neoadjuvant therapy are unknown.
The aim of this study is to determine whether the distribution of internal load predicts the distribution of muscle hypertrophy among hamstring heads after a 10-week resistance exercise program. The hypothesis is that the distribution of internal muscle load among the hamstring is related to the distribution of muscle hypertrophy.
Strength, and proprioception training of upper body following injuries is commonly recommended. However, there are no previous studies investigated the effects of Biodex balance training on the strength, stability and function of the upper quarter. So, the purpose of this study will investigate the effect of Biodex balance training on improving the strength, dynamic stability and function of the upper quarter in young recreational weightlifters.
This is a randomized controlled trial investigating the effect of variable load training in patients with knee osteoarthrosis. The intervention will consist of resistance training with variable load in knee extension- and flexion. The control group will receive conventional strength training with rubber band. Outcome measures will be the Knee Osteoarthrosis Outcome Score, functional capacity measured in a sit to stand test, 30m. pace walk and a 9 step stair climb test. Additionally isometric strength in knee flexion- and extension will be measured.
Introduction: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is considered an important public health problem, with prevalence of 9.6% in our population. The CKD has as main symptoms fatigue, muscle weakness and poor exercise tolerance, which directly contribute to physical inactivity and low mobility, increasing the risk of morbidity and mortality in CKD patients with significant impact on quality of life of these patients. Thus, patients with CKD have poor quality of life, high incidence of cardiovascular diseases, high prevalence of endothelial dysfunction, the consequent increase in arterial stiffness and serum concentration of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA). It is believed that the conditioning of these patients may reduce cardiovascular risks and improve the quality of life. Aim of the study: Evaluate the impact of exercise training in relation to functional capacity, quality of life, pulse wave velocity and ADMA in patients with CKD on dialysis. Materials and methods: Is a randomized controlled study, with 34 CKD patients on conservative treatment, divided into control group (with stretching exercises and metabolic exercises) and training group, those undergoing physical training, aerobic and resistance during six months. Before and after exercise training, patients will be assessed using the SF-36 and IPAQ. Also be held assessment of pulse wave velocity, measurement of serum ADMA and spirometry testing. Statistical analysis consisted of t test for independent data or chi-square when appropriate.
