Age-related changes in hand dominance and functional asymmetry in older adults
TL;DR: Significant differences between the dominant and non-dominant hand were obtained in both sexes across all age groups, except in the oldest female group (age >70) for the aiming and postural tremor tasks.
Journal Article
Postural stability and body posture in older women: comparison between fallers and non-fallers.
TL;DR: Fallers demonstrate poorer body balance in the standing position and poorer body posture than non-faller elderly women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hematological parameters, and hematopoietic growth factors: EPO and IL-3 in response to whole-body cryostimulation (WBC) in military academy students.

TL;DR: There was a small, but statistically significant increase in the concentration of EPO stimulated erythropoiesis which could facilitate a return of erythrocytic system indices to initial levels after 30 WBC treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of thermovision for estimation of the optimal and safe parameters of the whole body cryotherapy
TL;DR: It was demonstrated that 3-min exposure in the cryochamber and the temperature −120 °C are the optimal and safe cryotherapy parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differences in muscle strength depend on age, gender and muscle functions
TL;DR: The values of the peak torque was incrementally reduced with age, more so in men and with respect to the extensors of the trunk, pointing out to a selective reduction in trunk muscles function.
