Hand function as measured by the Jebsen Hand Function Test and the Purdue Pegboard Test was compared with Jamar dynamometer grip strength recordings. Moderate to weak correlations have been reported on a variety of patient populations. Due to small sample sizes, the information may not be ...
handgrip strength (HGS) and performance tests (sit-to-stand-chair-test and 6-min-walk-test) were significantly lower in the older senior CKD patients [52]. A study based on the EQUAL study (n = 1334) showed that the risk of PEW in CKD patients with eGFR < 20 ml/min incre...
