Skeletal muscle performance and ageing

Tieland, Michael (Lectoraat Voeding En Beweging); Trouwborst, Inez; Clark, Brian C.

The world population is ageing rapidly. As society ages, the incidence of physical limitations is dramatically increasing, which reduces the quality of life and increases healthcare expenditures. In western society, ~30% of the population over 55 years is confronted with moderate or severe physical limitations. …

Defining anabolic resistance

Morton, Robert; Traylor, Daniel; Weijs, Peter (Lectoraat Voeding En Beweging); Philips, Stuart

Purpose of reviewSkeletal muscle mass with aging, during critical care, and following critical care is a determinant of quality of life and survival. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms that underpin skeletal muscle atrophy and recommendations to offset skeletal muscle atrophy with aging and during, …

Agreement between rectus femoris muscle thickness by ultrasound and skeletal muscle mass by bio-electrical impedance analysis: a pilot study

Nijholt, Willemke; Sealy, Martine (Healthy Ageing, Allied Health Care And Nursing); van der Schans, Cees; Hobbelen, Hans (Ageing And Allied Health Care); Jager-Wittenaar, Harriët (Malnutrition And Healthy Ageing); Rodenburg, Iris

Rationale: Sarcopenia is a major problem and is common in community-dwelling elderly. In daily practice, there is need for low cost and easily assessable measurement tools to assess depletion of skeletal muscle (SM) mass, for example as one of the indicators of sarcopenia. Bio-electrical impedance analysis …

Surviving critical illness: what is next?

Major, M.E.; Kwakman, R. (Faculteit Gezondheid); Kho, M.E.; Connolly, B.; McWilliams, D.; Denehy, L.; Hanekom, S.; Patman, S.; Gosselink, R.; Jones, C.; Nollet, F.; Needham, D.M.; Engelbert, R.H.H. (Faculteit Gezondheid); van der Schaaf, M.

BACKGROUND: The study objective was to obtain consensus on physical therapy (PT) in the rehabilitation of critical illness survivors after hospital discharge. Research questions were: what are PT goals, what are recommended measurement tools, and what constitutes an optimal PT intervention for survivors …

Exergaming

Lars Veenendaal (Student); Arno Kamphuis (Begeleider)

The project ‘Exergaming for active healthy ageing and rehabilitation’ (EXACT) aims to develop a new generation exergames for the elderly to help them stay active in general and as an exercise tool in rehabilitation settings in particular. This is important because the elderly population is outgrowing …

Skeletal muscle quality as assessed by CT-derived skeletal muscle density is associated with 6-month mortality in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients

Looijaard, Wilhelmus G.P.M.; Dekker, Ingeborg M.; Stapel, Sandra N.; Girbes, Armand R.J.; Twisk, Jos W.R.; Oudemans-van Straaten, Heleen M.; Weijs, Peter J.M. (Lectoraat Voeding En Beweging)

BACKGROUND: Muscle quantity at intensive care unit (ICU) admission has been independently associated with mortality. In addition to quantity, muscle quality may be important for survival. Muscle quality is influenced by fatty infiltration or myosteatosis, which can be assessed on computed tomography …

Evaluation of bioelectrical impedance analysis in critically Ill patients

Kuchnia, Adam; Earthman, Carrie; Teigen, Levi; Cole, Abigail; Mourtzakis, Marina; Paris, Michael; Looijaard, Willem; Weijs, Peter (Lectoraat Voeding En Beweging); Oudemans-van Straaten, Heleen; Beilman, Gregory; Day, Andrew; Leung, Roger; Compher, Charlene; Dhaliwal, Rupinder; Peterson, Sarah; Roosevelt, Hannah; Heyland, Daren K

BACKGROUND: In critically ill patients, muscle loss is associated with adverse outcomes. Raw bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) parameters (eg, phase angle [PA] and impedance ratio [IR]) have received attention as potential markers of muscularity, nutrition status, and clinical outcomes. Our objective …

Human intent forecasting using intrinsic kinematic constraints

Hu, Ninghang; Bestick, Aaron; Englebienne, Gwenn; Bajscy, Ruzena; Kröse, Ben

The performance of human-robot collaboration tasks can be improved by incorporating predictions of the human collaborator's movement intentions. These predictions allow a collaborative robot to both provide appropriate assistance and plan its own motion so it does not interfere with the human. In the …
