Journal of Neurology, 1984
A dynamometer that can be held in the hand and that was designed to measure muscle strength in a simple way in the range 2-5 of the MRC scale, was tested in order to establish to what extent differences in results can be attributed to the observer, the subject and replication.

Association between tongue muscle strength and masticatory muscle strength
Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2018SummaryBackgroundThe tongue is responsible for compressing food against the palate and squeezing it into the pharynx during the oral preparatory phase of swallowing. Tongue pressure (TP), an indicator of tongue muscle strength, has been observed to decline with age; maximum occlusal force (MOF), an indicator of chewing ability, is correlated with TP ...

Calf Muscle Strength in Humans
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 1995In an effort to measure strength characteristics of the calf muscles, 18 subjects (14 male, 4 female, age =34.3+/-2.4yrs) were tested using a specially designed torque velocity device (TVD). This TVD is a hardware interface with the subject's lower leg which stabilizes the leg for calf muscle strength measurements.

Muscle strength in myasthenia gravis
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2013Myasthenia gravis (MG) is characterized by fatigue and fluctuating muscle weakness as a result of impaired neuromuscular transmission (NMT). Although MG is a prototypic fatiguing disorder, little is known about how the condition affects fixed weakness, and if present, whether weakness is related to disease duration or gender.

Respiratory Muscle Strength in Hypothyroidism
Chest, 1992To investigate respiratory muscle strength in patients with hypothyroidism, global respiratory muscle strength was assessed by measuring mouth pressure during PImax and PEmax efforts. Maximum pressures, VC, FEV1, FVC, T3, T4, and TSH were measured in 43 hypothyroid patients.

Strength Measurements of the Lumbrical Muscles
Journal of Hand Therapy, 1996This study was designed to measure the strength of the lumbrical muscles in the index and long fingers in patients with ulnar nerve paralysis. A hand-held dynamometer was used. The results show that in ulnar nerve damage the index and long fingers have a mean metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint flexion strength of 0.8 kg (range 0.3-1.5), compared with 6.4 ...

Muscle Strength and Fiber Typing
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1984The authors discuss fiber typing and morphologic changes resulting from training and how these affect athletic performance. Also considered is the concept of strength, its measurement and development, and how strength affects athletic performance, activity, and injury.
