Muscle thickness of the rectus femoris is lower in patients with copd than in healthy patients matched for sex, age and stature: an exploratory study

Sealy, Martine (Malnutrition And Healthy Ageing); Plas, Jelmer; Hobbelen, Johannes (Ageing And Allied Health Care); van der Vaart, Hester; Jager-Wittenaar, Harriët (Malnutrition And Healthy Ageing)

Rationale: Currently use of muscle thickness measured with ultrasound is suggested as an indicator for overall muscle mass in nutritional assessment. However, not much is known about how the muscle thickness measured in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) compares to the muscle …

Hip fracture patients in geriatric rehabilitation show poor nutritional status, dietary intake and muscle health

Groenendijk, Inge; Kramer, Charlotte S.; Den Boeft, Laura M.; Hobbelen, Hans S.M. (Ageing And Allied Health Care); van der Putten, Gert Jan; de Groot, Lisette C.P.G.M.

The aim of this study was to gain insight into the nutritional status, dietary intake and muscle health of older Dutch hip fracture patients to prevent recurrent fractures and to underpin rehabilitation programs. This cross-sectional study enrolled 40 hip fracture patients (mean ± SD age 82 ± 8.0 years) …

Early high protein intake and mortality in critically ill ICU patients with low skeletal muscle area and -density

Looijaard, Wilhelmus G.P.M.; Dekker, Ingeborg M.; Beishuizen, Albertus; Girbes, Armand R.J.; Oudemans-van Straaten, Heleen M.; Weijs, Peter J.M. (Faculteit Bewegen, Sport En Voeding)

Background & aims: Optimal nutritional support during the acute phase of critical illness remains controversial. We hypothesized that patients with low skeletal muscle area and -density may specifically benefit from early high protein intake. Aim of the present study was to determine the association …

Intramuscular short-chain acylcarnitines in elderly people are decreased in (pre-)frail females, but not in males

Marjanne van der Hoek (Onderzoeker); Arie Nieuwenhuizen (Onderzoeker); Ondřej Kuda (Onderzoeker); Paul Bos (Onderzoeker); Veronika Paluchová (Onderzoeker); Lars Verschuren (Onderzoeker); Anita van den Hoek (Onderzoeker); Robert Kleemann (Onderzoeker); Nic Veeger (Onderzoeker); Feike van der Leij (Lector); Jaap Keijer (Onderzoeker)

We tested the hypothesis that in human ageing, a decreased intramuscular acylcarnitine status is associated with (pre-)frailty, reduced physical performance, and altered mitochondrial function. Frailty was assessed according to the Fried criteria and physical performance was determined by 400 m walk …

Identifying critically ill patients with low muscle mass

Looijaard, Willem G.P.M.; Stapel, Sandra N.; Dekker, Ingeborg M.; Rusticus, Hanna; Remmelzwaal, Sharon; Girbes, Armand R.J.; Weijs, Peter J.M. (Faculteit Bewegen, Sport En Voeding); Oudemans-van Straaten, Heleen M.

Background & aims: Low muscle mass and -quality on ICU admission, as assessed by muscle area and -density on CT-scanning at lumbar level 3 (L3), are associated with increased mortality. However, CT-scan analysis is not feasible for standard care. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) assesses body …

Knee extensor muscle steadiness in relation to maximal torque and physical functioning in patients with knee osteoarthritis

Satam, A.; Van der Leeden, M.; De Zwart, A.; Verberne, S.; Schrijvers, J.; Dekker, J.; Lems, W.; Haarlaar, J.; Van der Esch, M. (Lectoraat Interdisciplinaire Zorg Voor Chronische Gewrichtsaandoeningen)

Steps to recovery

Kwakman, Robin C.H. (Faculteit Gezondheid); Sommers, Juultje; Horn, Janneke; Nollet, Frans; Engelbert, Raoul H.H. (Urban Vitality (Fg/Fbsv)); van der Schaaf, Marike (Urban Vitality (Fg/Fbsv))

BACKGROUND: Early mobilization has been proven effective for patients in intensive care units (ICUs) to improve functional recovery. However, early mobilization of critically ill, often mechanically ventilated, patients is cumbersome because of the attachment to tubes, drains, monitoring devices and …

Healthy subjects with lax knees use less knee flexion rather than muscle control to limit anterior tibia translation during landing

Keizer, Michèle N J; Hijmans, Juha M; Gokeler, Alli; Benjaminse, Anne; Otten, Egbert

PURPOSE: It has been reported that there is no correlation between anterior tibia translation (ATT) in passive and dynamic situations. Passive ATT (ATTp) may be different to dynamic ATT (ATTd) due to muscle activation patterns. This study aimed to investigate whether muscle activation during jumping …

Inconsistent descriptions of lumbar multifidus morphology: A scoping review

Hofste, A (Anke) (Phd)

Background: Lumbar multifidus (LM) is regarded as the major stabilizing muscle of the spine. The effects of exercise therapy in low back pain (LBP) are attributed to this muscle. A current literature review is warranted, however, given the complexity of LM morphology and the inconsistency of anatomical …

Changes in inflammation and musculoskeletal tissue-derived biomarker serum levels in response to high- and low-intensity resistance training in individuals with knee osteoarthritis

Jansen, N.E.; Engstrøm, A.; Thudium, C.S.; Bay-Jensen, A-C.; de Zwart, A.H.; Dekker, J.; Lems, W.F.; Gerritsen, M.; van Spil, W.E.; Jaspers, R.T.; Turkstra, F.; van der Leeden, M.; van der Esch, M. (Lectoraat Interdisciplinaire Zorg Voor Chronische Gewrichtsaandoeningen)

Purpose: Exercise therapy with a focus on muscle strengthening has proven to be effective for the management of knee osteoarthritis (OA). Yet it is not known whether high-intensity resistance training (RT) is more effective in improving upper leg muscle strength and physical performance than low-intensity …
