Low muscle strength and increased arterial stiffness go hand in hand [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 AbstractLow handgrip strength and increased arterial stiffness are both associated with poor health outcomes, but evidence on the relationship between handgrip strength and arterial stiffness is limited. In this cross-sectional analysis of combined baseline datasets from the LipidCardio and Berlin Aging Study II cohorts we aimed to examine whether ...

Norms for hand grip strength. [PDF]
Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1984 Norms for hand grip strength of healthy children are presented. Sex and age specific centiles for age 5 to 18 years have been determined using a portable strain gauge dynamometer with an accuracy of 0.5 N. The test group comprised 1417 healthy, urban school children from a middle class suburb of Brisbane.

The relationship between Revised Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory (rRST), handedness and indecision [PDF]
, 2013 Indecisiveness is an inability to make a decision, manifest across a number of behaviours. We explore the influence that both direction and strength of hand preference may have on this construct, examining it in relation to the revised Reinforcement ...
