Global cognitive impairment was associated with slower gait speed in older adults.
- •
Impaired global cognition increased slower gait prevalence by 63%.
- •
Verbal fluency and delayed memory showed the strongest associations with gait.
speed.
- •
Higher education attenuated the association between cognitive impairment and gait speed.
- •
Supervised, moderate-intensity, multimodal training delivered over 16 weeks improves sleep in older adults.
- •
Those who underwent training experienced an increase in sleep efficiency, achieved by reducing sleep latency, average awakenings, sleep fragmentation, and WASO.
- •
Older adults showed high adherence to the training programme. Therefore, these findings provide valuable information for decision-making when choosing the most appropriate exercise modalities for older populations.
- •
These findings could contribute to the recommendation of multimodal training as a strategy to improve sleep.
- •
The DPEBBS-BP presented adequate measurement properties.
- •
Overall, participants scored benefits higher than barriers.
- •
Younger and physically active individuals perceived greater benefits.
- •
Barriers showed moderate correlations with DASI and the functional capacity domain (SF-36).
- •
This is a valuable tool for Brazilian professionals to evaluate people on hemodialysis.
- •
BacKS was successfully translated into Brazilian Portuguese (BacKS-BR).
- •
The BacKS-BR has adequate content, construct, and structural validity.
- •
Internal consistency and reliability were both acceptable (>0.70).
- •
BacKS-BR showed acceptable cross-cultural measurement invariance.
- •
BacKS-BR can be used to assess evidence-based understanding of low back pain.
- •
Patients achieved similar reductions in knee pain with single- and three-set resistance training.
- •
Patients improved self-reported function to a similar extent with single- and three-set resistance training.
- •
Both training approaches produced comparable gains in muscle strength and hop performance.
- •
Single-set resistance training represents an effective and time-efficient intervention for the initial management of patellofemoral pain (PFP).
- •
New 3-test cluster showed stronger diagnostic utility than original CPR.
- •
New cluster includes Spurling, Shoulder Abduction test, ≥2 positive ULNTs.
- •
Positive cluster (3/3) rules in CR with 100% post-test probability.
- •
Negative (0/3) cluster rules out cervical radiculopathy diagnosis.
- •
Modified Shoulder Abduction test showed higher post-test probability.
- •
Nepalese women showed low knowledge about UI, the PFM and PFMT.
- •
Most women in the sample perceived they could contract the PFM.
- •
Less than one-third of the women performed a correct PFM contraction.
- •
Ability to contract the PFM were not related to knowledge on PFMT or the PFM
- •
Self-perception on contraction was contradicting the clinical inability to contract
- •
RT in patients in breast cancer therapy es effective for reduce fatigue and pain intensity.
- •
The maximum effect in reducing fatigue is achieved at 2800 repetitions in breast cancer.
- •
The maximum effect in reducing pain intensity is achieved at 8800 repetitions in breast cancer.
- •
No significant effect in favor of RT was seen in prostate cancer.
- •
Better reporting on resistance exercises is needed.
