Adolescent childbirth is associated with worse physical function over the long-term. Differential loss of muscle strength during pregnancy and postpartum for adolescents compared to adults may be one explanation for this, but research examining these differences is lacking. The objective of this study as to assess hand grip strength and hip adduction muscle strength in adolescents and adults during pregnancy and postpartum. A prospective cohort study was carried out with adolescent (13 to 18 years) and adult (23 to 28 years) primigravid women...

Impaired muscle parameters may further compromise the already compromised skeleton in individuals with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI). This cross-sectional study aimed to compare muscle function and body composition in adults with various OI types and healthy controls. Sixty-eight adults with OI (mean age 42.2 years; 27 men) and 68 healthy age- and sex-matched controls were recruited in Belgium and Australia. Maximal isometric muscle force was assessed by handheld dynamometry (hand grip, hip flexors, shoulder abductors, and ankle dorsiflexors), muscle endurance by posture maintenance tests (shoulder abduction, hip flexion, and wall sit), and functional lower limb strength by 30 second chair rise test...

Functional assessments are crucial for the evaluation of rehabilitation after total knee (TKA) and hip (THA) arthroplasty. Muscle strength, a key determinant of physical function (PF), is often measured with isokinetic dynamometry (ID), which is considered the gold standard. However, studies lack evaluations of responsiveness-the ability to detect changes over time. This study aims to determine the responsiveness of ID in measuring PF in TKA and THA rehabilitation-is muscle strength a valid indicator for assessing improvement in rehabilitation processes? The pre- and post-surgery PF of 20 osteoarthritis patients (age 55-82) was assessed, using ID, performance-based and self-reported measures...

This study aimed to determine which muscle the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, gluteus minimus (Gmin), or tensor fasciae latae (TFL) contributes most to hip abduction strength and to identify effective sites for cross-sectional area (CSA) Gmin and TFL measurement in hip osteoarthritis (OAhip) patients. Twenty-eight patients with OAhip were included. The muscle CSA and volume were determined using magnetic resonance imaging. Peak isometric strength was determined using hand-held dynamometry. Muscle volumes were normalized to the total muscle volume of hip abductors...

BACKGROUND: Patients with chronic low back pain may present changes in hip muscles. However, there is still limited and controversial evidence of the association between hip muscle weakness and chronic low back pain and whether this weakness can be assessed with functional tests. The purpose of this study was to assess whether there is hip muscle weakness in patients with non-specific chronic low back pain and whether there is an association between the positive Trendelenburg and Step-Down tests and hip muscle strength...

BACKGROUND: Individuals with patellofemoral pain (PFP) have kinesiophobia and hip and knee strength deficits. These factors may be related to kinematic alterations of pelvic, hip and knee during a more demanding functional activity, such as jumping landing. The aim was to investigate the relationships between kinesiophobia and hip/knee torque to pelvic/hip/knee kinematics during the single-leg drop vertical jump in women with PFP. METHOD: Thirty women with PFP were assessed with Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia; isokinetic dynamometry of the hip extensor, hip abductor, and knee extensor; and three-dimensional motion analysis system during the single-leg drop vertical jump...
