Trabalho e potência dos músculos extensores e flexores do joelho de pacientes com osteoartrite e com artroplastia total de joelho Work and power of the knee flexor and extensor muscles in patients with osteoarthritis and after total knee arthroplasty

Revista Brasileira de Reumatologia, 2012
INTRODUÇÃO: As manifestações inflamatórias decorrentes da osteoartrite (OA) de joelho provocam inibição muscular, levando à hipotrofia muscular e à consequente diminuição do trabalho e da potência musculares.

Alterations of hand muscle strength in children due to schoolbag carriage

BLDE University Journal of Health Sciences, 2022
BACKGROUND: Heavy schoolbag carriage induces pain and fatigue in children. It can alter the handgrip strength (HGS) in children – an important parameter given that most activities in school curriculum require hand dexterity.
