  1. 21. Maximal step-up height as a novel assessment of leg muscle strength and function : methodological and clinical studies

    Författare :Lillemor Amanda Nyberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Physical performance is a strong predictor for morbidity and premature death and there is an increasing interest in the role of sarcopenia in many chronic diseases. There is a need for simple, robust and valid tests for assessing muscle strength and function in clinical practice. LÄS MER

  3. 22. The Effects of Aerobic Exercise on Human Skeletal Muscle Adaptations to Resistance Exercise

    Författare :Tommy Lundberg; Per Tesch; Hans Hoppeler; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :concurrent training; endurance; gene expression; hypertrophy; muscle strength and power; protein phosphorylation;

    Sammanfattning : Aerobic exercise (AE) may interfere with muscle adaptations induced by resistance exercise (RE). Three experimental campaigns were conducted to explore the influence of AE on molecular, functional and muscular adaptations to acute and chronic RE. Twenty-nine men performed unilateral knee extensor RE preceded by AE (AE+RE). LÄS MER

  4. 23. The post-polio syndrome : studies of immunology and immunomodulatory intervention

    Författare :Henrik Gonzalez; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Post-polio syndrome; PPS; inflammation; cytokines; muscle strength; quality of life;

    Sammanfattning : Late effects in patients with prior poliomyelitis were first reported in the nineteenth century and have been referred to as the post-polio syndrome (PPS). PPS is characterized by new muscular deterioration, fatigue and pain after a stable period of at least 15 years. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Muscle mass and function after total hip arthroplasty

    Författare :Anton Rasch; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Osteoarthrosis; arthritis; joint disease; hip muscle strength; hip muscle function; outcome; elderly; attenuation; fatty infiltration; gait analysis; balance;

    Sammanfattning : Osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip is a common disease among elderly causing pain, joint stiffness and reduced mobility. Outcome studies have shown total hip arthroplasy (THA) to be a successful surgical procedure. Studies of muscle strength and function after THA are more scarce and results vary. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Exercise capacity with special reference to type 2 diabetes

    Författare :Åsa Tornberg; Människan i rörelse: hälsa och rehabilitering; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Physical inactivity and obesity is a growing health problem world wide. Three different samples with a wide range of glucose tolerance were included in the thesis to represent a wider population. The exercise capacity was studied in one group of healthy sedentary middle aged men with normal glucose tolerance in study I and II. LÄS MER
