Associations between 10-second standing balance tests and mild cognitive impairment in older adults in Colombia
Very little is known about the associations between balance and cognition in Latin America. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate associations between 10-second standing balance tests and mild cognitive impairment using data from a large nationally representative study of older adults in Colombia. The sample included 23,443 community-dwelling adults aged 71 (8) years [mean (SD)] from the National Survey of Health, Wellbeing an…
Handgrip Strength-Related Factors in a Colombian Hypertensive Population
(1) Background: This study determined the factors associated with manual grip strength in people with high blood pressure (HBP); (2) Methods: 219 subjects participated in this cross-sectional study, which evaluated muscle strength (manual dynamometer), sociodemographic factors, clinical characteristics, level of physical activity (International Physical Activity Questionnaire-IPAQ score), and depression (Zung's Depression Self-Rating Scale); (3) …
Associations between the Severity of Sarcopenia and Health-Related Quality of Life in Community-Dwelling Middle-Aged and Older Adults
(1) Background: The aim of this study was to analyze the associations between severity of sarcopenia and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among community-dwelling middle-aged and older adults. (2) Methods: A cross-sectional study involving 304 older-adult participants was used to assess the severity of sarcopenia by measuring muscle strength (handgrip dynamometer), muscle mass (bioelectrical impedance analysis), and physical performance (Ti…
Effectiveness of A Pilates Training Program on Cognitive and Functional Abilities in Postmenopausal Women
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of a Pilates exercises program on the cognitive and physical functioning of older Spanish women. This study is a randomized clinical trial; a total of 110 women aged ≥60 years were initially allocated to either a Pilates group (PG, n = 55), who underwent a 12-week Pilates exercise program, or to a control group (CG, n = 55), who did not receive any intervention. Global cognitive function (Min…
