Cardiorespiratory effects of warm water immersion in elderly patients with chronic heart failure.

TL;DR: The aim of this study was to assess the acute cardiorespiratory effect of immersion in warm water, in a clinical setting, in elderly patients with CHF compared with healthy age and sex matched persons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cross-diagnostic validity in a generic instrument: an example from the Functional Independence Measure in Scandinavia

TL;DR: The present seven category scoring system for the FIM™ motor items was found to be invalid and the removal of items that do not fit the underlying trait would improve the validity of the scale in these groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is walking endurance associated with activity and participation late after stroke

TL;DR: Walking distance several years after stroke was partly associated with self-reported difficulties in activity and participation, and a regression model including physical activity level and 6MWT explained 21% of the variation in activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Baseline characteristics and the effects of two years of growth hormone replacement therapy in adults with growth hormone deficiency previously treated for Cushing's disease.

TL;DR: The objective was to determine baseline characteristics and the effects of 2 years of GH replacement therapy on body composition, muscle strength, bone mass, and metabolic indices in GH‐deficient (GHD) adults previously treated for pituitary‐dependent Cushing's disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Computer game-based upper extremity training in the home environment in stroke persons: a single subject design.

TL;DR: Results indicate that computer game-based training could be a promising approach to improve upper extremity function in the late phase after stroke, since in this study, changes were achieved in motor function and activity capacity.
