It should be noted that grip strength for these athletes was lower than previous reports for NCAA Div. I baseball athletes (Spaniol 2005). This may be due to the prior training status of the athletes in the present study, or to the different hand grip dynamometer used, or both. Finally,...
So far, two genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of maximal grip strength have been conducted7,8. The largest study, also conducted in the UK Biobank, included 195,180 individuals and identified 16 loci associated with grip strength. In this study, we conducted traditional and gene-based GWA...
There is no conclusive evidence determining whether grip strength (GS) correctly represents total muscular strength (MS) in young university students. To determine the correlation between GS and total MS of a sample of university students from the city of Bogotá, Colombia, a descriptive and cross...
sphygmomanometer test: association between upper limb global strength and motor function Background: Grip strength, commonly evaluated with the handgrip dynamometer, is a good indicator of upper limb (UL) function in stroke subjects and may reflect the global strength deficits of the whole paretic UL...
dynamometerhand-grip strengthmuscle strengthThe hand-grip strength was measured as part of the 5-year neurodevelopmental assessment of 24 very low birthweight (VLBW) and 18 normal birthweight (NBW) children. Hand-grip strength was significantly lower in the VLBW children for left and right hands ...

Electromyogram machine and grip dynamometer was used to measure the muscular stresses of ...
Hand grip strength is a widely used proxy of muscular fitness, a marker of frailty, and predictor of a range of morbidities and all-cause mortality. To investigate the genetic determinants of variation in grip strength, we perform a large-scale genetic d
Our study confirmed the preliminary data previously reported regarding feasibility, reliability of the MyoSet and correlation between the distal strength and clinical variables. We demonstrated that the use of sensitive dynamometers could capture a 12-month change in non-ambulant Duchenne muscular ...
[160–162]. Merlini et al. showed reliable measurements of muscle strength in SMA with a hand-held dynamometer [163] and linked muscle strength to motor function [164]. Under nusinersen, handgrip strength significantly improved in patients with SMA type 3 and 4 and correlated with motor ...
Methods: A total of 172 men (age 19.7±2.4 years; weight 65.5±10.7 kg; BMI 22.6±2.8 kgm(-1)) were invited to participate in the study. They had no indication of cardiometabolic problems, as evaluated by clinical interview. MF was measured by isometric handgrip (dynamometer)....
