Factors Associated with Functional Capacity in CKD Patients

Clinical Nursing Research, 2020
To evaluate the factors associated with functional capacity in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). All patients were submitted to six-minute walk test (6MWT), 10-repetition sit-to-stand test (STS-10) and SF-36 health-related quality of life questionnaire (HRQoL).

Epigenetic factors of individual radiosensitivity and adaptive capacity

International Journal of Radiation Biology, 2020
Purpose: Studying the relationship between epigenetic variability with different individual radiosensitivity and adaptive capacity.Material and method: Using a simple and convenient experimental model - maize seedlings with different germination terms and epigenetic patterns - the hypothesis was tested that homogeneous genetically but epigenetic ...

Respiration as a Limiting Factor for Working Capacity

1976
Diseases of the cardiorespiratory system often considerably limit the physical work performance. However, to what extent is the respiratory system a limiting factor for exercise tolerance without manifest respiratory disease? What factors should be taken into consideration?

Seismic bearing capacity factors for spread foundations

Géotechnique, 2002
The effect of horizontal earthquake body forces on the bearing capacity of foundations has been examined computationally in a rigorous manner by employing the method of stress characteristics. The bearing capacity factors Nc, Nq and Nγ, due to the components of soil cohesion, ground surcharge pressure and soil unit weight respectively, have been ...

FACTORS INFLUENCING VITAL CAPACITY

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1924
Various considerations regarding vital capacity, as observed in a study of 225 men and 238 women at the Mayo Clinic, have already been presented. It became apparent that certain more general factors were repeated with such constancy that they must be considered in the interpretation of all estimations. Our observations regarding the relative importance

Factors Influencing the Diffusing Capacity of Each Lung

Respiration, 2009
18 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and ventilatory insufficiency had a differential spirometry with determination of the following parameters in each lung: oxygen uptake, ventilation, vital capacity and diffusing capacity. Lung scintigraphy was also performed. The factors influencing the diffusing capacity of each lung were the ventilation and the

Factors Associated With Functional Capacity in Hemodialysis Patients

Artificial Organs, 2017
Abstract Hemodialysis patients have a marked decrease in functional capacity when compared to healthy individuals. We evaluated the factors associated with functional capacity in hemodialysis patients. A total of 102 hemodialysis patients were evaluated. The patients were submitted to a 6‐min walk test, peripheral

[Limiting factors of aerobic capacity].

Orvosi hetilap, 2002
High aerobic capacity is necessary to maintain high intensity, wholebody physical exercise for several minutes. Any steps in the chain of the oxygen delivery and mitochondrial consumption can be a rate-limiting factor of the aerobic functional system.

Impact of orthogonality factor on umts capacity simulation

Proceedings of the 2nd ACM workshop on Performance monitoring and measurement of heterogeneous wireless and wired networks, 2007
Radio network planning for the Universal Mobile telecommunication System (UMTS) is generally based on simulations, because it is convenient to represent various combinations of input parameters graphically. The accuracy and reliability of the simulated results, however, depend on the accuracy of the inputs (eg.

Factors explaining debt capacity

Management Research News, 2007
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to provide empirical support for micro‐economic theory respecting debt capacity and develop a practically useful model for assessing debt capacity for firms seeking to minimize credit risk and the cost of debt (interest rate).Design/methodology/approachTheoretically important factors explaining the variation in debt ...
