Isometric exercise for knee osteoarthritis: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Asian Journal of Surgery
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a common degenerative disease that severely affects patients' quality of life and imposes a heavy economic burden. Exercise therapy is widely applied due to its minor side effects and significant efficacy. Isometric exercise,

Age-related differences in skeletal muscle microvascular response to exercise as detected by contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
BACKGROUND:Aging involves reductions in exercise total limb blood flow and exercise capacity. We hypothesized that this may involve early age-related impairments of skeletal muscle microvascular responsiveness as previously reported for insulin but not ...

Isometric Handgrip Exercise Training Improves Spirometric Parameters and Pulmonary Capacity

Pathophysiology, 2021
Decline in normal physiological pulmonary function has been attributed to premorbid conditions such as prehypertension. Research evidence suggests that physical activity reduces age-related decline in pulmonary function and improves the efficiency of the

Short-term vascular hemodynamic responses to isometric exercise in young adults and in the elderly

Clinical Interventions in Aging, 2018
Background Vascular aging is known to induce progressive stiffening of the large elastic arteries, altering vascular hemodynamics under both rest and stress conditions.

Factors mediating the pressor response to isometric muscle contraction: An experimental study in healthy volunteers during lower body negative pressure.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Whilst both cardiac output (CO) and total peripheral resistance (TPR) determine mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), their relative importance in the pressor response to isometric exercise remains unclear.

Hemodynamic Responses to a Handgrip Exercise Session, with and without Blood Flow Restriction, in Healthy Volunteers

Physiologia, 2023
Exercising at submaximal intensity with a hand dynamometer causes mild hemodynamic adaptations that can improve cardiovascular function. However, hemodynamic responses and fatigue have not been adequately studied in an isometric exercise protocol ...
