  1. 11. Long-term effects of growth hormone replacement therapy in growth hormone deficient adults

    Författare :Galina Götherström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :growth hormone; body composition; bone mass; bone density; muscle strength; lipids; glucose metabolism; adult onset GHD; childhood onset GHD; gender;

    Sammanfattning : Deficiency of growth hormone (GHD) in adults results in abnormal body composition, reduced bone mass and muscle strength, deteriorated cardiovascular risk factors. Short-term GH replacement reverses many of the symptoms associated with adult GHD. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Physical performance, pain and pool exercise in individuals with late effects of polio

    Författare :Carin Willén; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Post-polio syndrome; pain; muscle strength; walking capacity; dynamic exercise in water;

    Sammanfattning : The overall purpose of the studies was to obtain knowledge about physical performance and related factors in individuals with late effects of polio. The specific aims were to provide a description of pain and how it is related to the effects of polio and the physical activity of the individual; to evaluate physical performance, the effect of reduced muscle strength on walking performance, and to study the impact of pool exercise.

  4. 13. Dynamic knee stability after anterior cruciate ligament injury : Emphasis on rehabilitation

    Författare :Sofi Tagesson (Sonesson); Joanna Kvist; Birgitta Öberg; Suzanne Werner; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Rehabilitation; anterior cruciate ligament; knee joint; joint instability; muscle strength; electromyography; ACL reconstruction; Physiotherapy; Sjukgymnastik fysioterapi;

    Sammanfattning : Anterior cruciate ligament injury leads to increased sagittal tibial translation, and perceptions of instability and low confidence in the knee joint are common. Many patients have remaining problems despite treatment and are forced to lower their activity level and prematurely end their career in sports. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Upper extremity disability after stroke. Psychometric properties of outcome measures and perceived ability to perform daily hand activities

    Författare :Elisabeth Ekstrand; Människan i rörelse: hälsa och rehabilitering; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Activities of Daily Living; Association; Dexterity; Muscle strength; Outcome Assessment; Rehabilitation; Reproducibility of results; Self-report; Somatosensory disorders; Stroke; Touch perception; Upper extremity; Activities of Daily Living; Association; Dexterity; Muscle strength; Outcome assessment; Rehabilitation; Reproducibility of results; Self-report; Somatosensory disorders; Stroke; Touch perception; Upper extremity;

    Sammanfattning : Disability of the upper extremity is common after stroke. To be able to evaluate recovery and effects of interventions there is a need for stable and precise outcome measures. In order to design and target efficient rehabilitation interventions it is important to know which factors that affect the ability to perform daily hand activities. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Exercise-induced muscle soreness : a qualitative and quantitative study of human muscle morphology and function

    Författare :Jan Fridén; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Human; exercise; exertion; eccentric contractions; muscles; muscle strength; muscle soreness; fibre types; myofibrils; muscle proteins; histocy to chemistry; ultrastructure; stereology;

    Sammanfattning : Exercise-induced muscle soreness is characterized by stiffness, tenderness and pain during active movements and weakness of the affected musculature the days after unusually or particularly heavy work. The most pronounced subjective symptoms do not arise immediately but rather between a couple of hours to some days after the exercise (a delayed-onset of muscle soreness), the intensity of pain is greatest about 48 hours after the work.
