Obesity in older adults is associated with postural imbalance on unstable surfaces.
- •
Obesity in older adults is not associated with increased fear of falling.
- •
Overweight is not associated with imbalance on unstable surfaces.
- •
This is the statistical analysis plan for the RESOLVE trial for chronic low back pain.
- •
RESOLVE compares graded sensory-motor precision training to sham-control.
- •
We will use mixed-effects models to analyse the primary and secondary outcomes.
- •
The JH-HLM has excellent reliability when used by physical therapists in the ICU.
- •
The JH-HLM has excellent reliability across several types of ICUs.
- •
Trained physical therapists can use the JH-HLM to reliably measure observed patient mobility in the ICU.
- •
The CMTPedS-Br is culturally appropriate for the Brazilian population.
- •
The CMTPedS-Br showed adequate reliability and face validity.
- •
The CMTPedS-Br will allow Brazil to be part of multicentered studies on such a rare but debilitating condition.
- •
Phenotypes of individuals with COPD vary according to body composition and (in)activity.
- •
Different clinical impacts are present in patients according to these phenotypes.
- •
Obesity associated to sarcopenia and inactivity is the most debilitating phenotype.
- •
Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a primary cause of pain and disability.
- •
Mechanical diagnosis and therapy (MDT) is a suitable approach for CLBP.
- •
Improvements with MDT in CLBP are similar to other physical therapy approaches.
- •
The SBST can be used to stratify baseline characteristics in patients with chronic LBP.
- •
Outcomes over a 6-month period were consistently greater in high risk patients.
- •
The SBST itself predicts disability in both short and medium terms.
- •
The SBST does not add predictive value to basic baseline characteristics.
- •
6MWT is the most frequent and well-established test used in clinical settings and research.
- •
6MWT distance has strong positive association with age, arm span, height, and weight.
- •
Arm span, similar to height, is a strong predictor of 6MWT distance in healthy children.
