Physical activity intervention for elderly patients with reduced physical performance after acute coronary syndrome (HULK study): Rationale and design of a randomized clinical trial [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Reduced physical performance and impaired mobility are common in elderly patients after acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and they represent independent risk factors for disability, morbidity, hospital readmission and mortality.

ASSOCIATION BETWEEN PHYSICAL FUNCTIONING WITH COGNITION AMONG COMMUNITY-DWELLING OLDER ADULTS: A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY

Geriatrics, Gerontology and Aging, 2021
OBJECTIVE: Declines in physical and cognitive functioning often co-exist through aging. Gait-related parameters have been related to cognitive function, although it is unclear whether other measures of physical functioning are similarly related to ...

Assessing physical functioning in otolaryngology: feasibility of the short physical performance battery [PDF]

American Journal of Otolaryngology, 2014
Objective measures of physical functioning and mobility are considered to be the strongest indicators of overall health and mortality risk in older adults. These measures are not routinely used in otolaryngology research. We investigated the feasibility of using a validated physical performance battery to assess the functioning of older adults seen in ...

Psychological status and physical performance are independently associated with autonomic function [PDF]

BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2022
Abstract Background Falls among older adults have become a global concern. While previous studies have established associations between autonomic function indicator; heart rate variability (HRV) and blood pressure variability (BPV) with fall recurrence, as well as physical inactivity and psychological disorders as risk ...

Variations in Postmenopausal Body Composition: A Cross-Sectional Comparison between Physical Activity Practitioners and Sedentary Individuals

Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology, 2023
Physical activity is broadly recognized for promoting weight reduction and bestowing numerous health benefits. Nonetheless, robust evidence concerning the impact of physical activity on postmenopausal women, undergoing physiological shifts, remains scant.
