Effects of strength training versus power training on physical performance in prefrail community-dwelling older adults.
BACKGROUND It has been unclear which training mode is most effective and feasible for improving physical performance in the risk group of prefrail community-dwelling older adults. OBJECTIVE The purpose of the present study was to compare the effects of strength training (ST) versus power training (PT) on functional performance in prefrail older adults. This study was registered at clinicaltri...
متن کاملPrevalence of Cognitive Impairment in Community-Dwelling Older Adults
Introduction: Mild cognitive impairment can be considered as an intermediate clinical state between normal cognitive aging and mild dementia. Elderly people with this impairment represent an at-risk group for the development of dementia. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of cognitive impairment in community-dwelling older adults by Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and ...
متن کاملPredictors of Social Isolation Among Community-Dwelling Older Adults
Introduction and objective: Social isolation can lead to depression, decline in life expectancy, and increased death anxiety among older adults. Therefore, the present study was conducted to determine the predictors of social isolation in community-dwelling older adults residing in Qazvin, Iran. Materials and Methods: This descriptive and cross sectional study was conducted on 301 older adults...
متن کاملAccelerometer‐determined physical activity, muscle mass, and leg strength in community‐dwelling older adults
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to describe the relationship between accelerometer-determined physical activity (PA), muscle mass, and lower-limb strength in community-dwelling older adults. METHODS Six hundred thirty-six community-dwelling older adults (66 ± 7 years) were studied. Muscle mass was measured using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, whilst lower limb strength was measured ...
متن کاملResidual effects of muscle strength and muscle power training and detraining on physical function in community-dwelling prefrail older adults: a randomized controlled trial
BACKGROUND Although resistance exercise interventions have been shown to be beneficial in prefrail or frail older adults it remains unclear whether there are residual effects when the training is followed by a period of detraining. The aim of this study was to establish the sustainability of a muscle power or muscle strength training effect in prefrail older adults following training and detrai...
