Sarcopenic obesity and its association with respiratory disease incidence and mortality
(Churchill Livingstone, 2020-11)Background: Sarcopenic obesity is defined as a combination of sarcopenia and obesity. Previous studies have shown a positive association between sarcopenia and respiratory disease, while other studies have identified that ... -
Socio-demographic patterning of objectively measured physical activity and sedentary behaviours in eight Latin American countries: Findings from the ELANS study
(Chile. Universidad Mayor, 2020)Physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviours (SB) are two independent risk factors for non-communicable diseases. However, there is a lack of objectively measured information on PA and SB in low- and middle-income ... -
Socio-demographic patterns of public, private and active travel in Latin America: Cross-sectional findings from the ELANS study
(Elsevier BV, 2020-03)Background: Active travel such as walking or cycling has been associated with more favorable health outcomes. However, evidence on patterns of transportation in Latin America is scarce. Therefore, the aim of this study was ... -
Strength Training to Prevent Falls in Older Adults: A Systematic Review with Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
(MDPI, 2021-07-31)We performed a systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to assess the effects of strength training (ST), as compared to alternative multimodal or unimodal exercise programs, on the number ... -
Strength Training versus Stretching for Improving Range of Motion: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
(MDPI, 2021-05-11)Background: Stretching is known to improve range of motion (ROM), and evidence has suggested that strength training (ST) is effective too. However, it is unclear whether its efficacy is comparable to stretching. The goal ... -
Sudden gait perturbations elicit sex-specific neuromuscular trunk responses in persons with low back pain
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020-03)Persons with low back pain (LBP) exhibit delayed trunk muscle onset and increased co-contractions as a response to quasi-static and dynamic sudden trunk loading in comparison to back-healthy controls. Although LBP is more ... -
Tapering strategies applied to plyometric jump training: a systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized-controlled trials
(Edizioni Minerva Medica S.p.A., 2021-01)Introduction: The purpose of this systematic review was to analyze the effect of plyometric jump training (PJT) applied in conjunction with tapering strategies on the jump performance of team-sport athletes. Evidence ... -
The Effectiveness of Post-exercise Stretching in Short-Term and Delayed Recovery of Strength, Range of Motion and Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-05-05)Background: Post-exercise (i.e., cool-down) stretching is commonly prescribed for improving recovery of strength and range of motion (ROM) and diminishing delayed onset muscular soreness (DOMS) after physical exertion. ... -
The Effects of Combined Balance and Complex Training Versus Complex Training Only on Measures of Physical Fitness in Young Female Handball Players
(HUMAN KINETICS PUBL INC, 2021-10-03)Purpose: To examine the effects of balance exercises conducted prior to complex training (bCT) versus complex training (CT) only on measures of physical fitness in young female elite handball players. Methods: Participants ... -
The effects of plyometric jump training on physical fitness attributes in basketball players: A meta-analysis
(Elsevier BV, 2020-12-24)Background: There is a growing body of experimental evidence examining the effects of plyometric jump training (PJT) on physical fitness attributes in basketball players; however, this evidence has not yet been comprehensively ... -
The Hamstrings: Anatomic and Physiologic Variations and Their Potential Relationships With Injury Risk
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-07-07)The incidence and recurrence of hamstrings injuries are very high in sports, posing elevated performance and financial-related costs. Attempts to identify the risk factors involved in predicting vulnerability to hamstrings ... -
The joint association of sarcopenia and frailty with incidence and mortality health outcomes: A prospective study
(Churchill Livingstone, 2021-04)Background: Sarcopenia and frailty are strongly associated with disease incidence and mortality. However, there is limited evidence regarding their joint association with health outcomes. This study aimed to investigate ... -
Understanding How Much TV is Too Much: A Nonlinear Analysis of the Association Between Television Viewing Time and Adverse Health Outcomes
(Chile. Universidad Mayor, 2020)Objective: To inform potential guideline development, we investigated nonlinear associations between television viewing time (TV time) and adverse health outcomes. Methods: From 2006 to 2010, 490,966 UK Biobank participants, ... -
Unilateral versus Bilateral Landing after Spike Jumps in Male and Female Volleyball: A Systematic Review
(MDPI, 2021-08-06)Background: The spike is a key action in volleyball, and the landing technique and its asymmetries are commonly associated with an increased risk of injury. Objectives: The aim of this systematic review was to assess how ...
