Can isokinetic muscle strength training with hip abduction and adduction improve muscle strength, balance, and gait in patients with functional ankle instability? A randomized controlled trial

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Previous studies have confirmed that patients with functional ankle instability (FAI) have inadequate hip abductor muscle strength. Muscle strength training is a commonly used intervention in people with FAI.

Isokinetic leg muscle strength relationship to dynamic balance reflects gymnast-specific differences in adolescent females

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
Balance, together with other motor qualities, plays an important role in the successful execution of specific gymnastic skills. However, it is also not clear whether different demands on dynamic balance and power produced by lower limb can be observed in

Treatment With the Shaker Head‐Lift Exercise in Head and Neck Cancer Patients With Radiation‐Induced Dysphagia: 12‐Month Results on Swallowing Function From a Randomized, Controlled Trial

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dysphagia is a common side‐effect after radiotherapy in head and neck cancer patients. This randomized study aimed to evaluate the effect of the shaker head‐lift exercise (HLE) after 12 months with flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). Methods Patients were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 30) or the control

A comparison of isokinetic and functional methods of assessing bilateral strength imbalance [PDF]

, 2010
Muscle strength imbalances have been linked with poor agility performance and higher injury risk. Isokinetic dynamometry has been used to investigate such imbalances; however, this method is impractical and inaccessible for most strength and conditioning
