TLDR
Isokinetic assessments of thigh muscle strength in postmenopausal women with osteopenia are of high reliability, with a level of agreement comparable to the levels found in previous reliability studies concerning both the healthy elderly and elderly with different health conditions.

Randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effects of progressive resistance training compared to progressive muscle relaxation in breast cancer patients undergoing adjuvant radiotherapy: the BEST study

TL;DR: The BEST study is the first randomized controlled trial comparing progressive resistance training with muscle relaxation training in breast cancer patients during adjuvant radiotherapy, and based on the analysis of physiological, immunological and inflammatory parameters it will contribute to a better understanding of the physiological and psychosocial effects and the biological mechanisms of resistance training.
Journal ArticleDOI

Progressive resistance versus relaxation training for breast cancer patients during adjuvant chemotherapy: design and rationale of a randomized controlled trial (BEATE study).

TL;DR: The investigation of progressive resistance training parallel with chemotherapy, the choice of a control group that enables an evaluation of the physiological effects of exercise beyond potential psycho-social effects, and the comprehensive and high-quality assessment of physiological factors and biomarkers potentially related to fatigue are investigated.

Intraclass correlations: uses in assessing rater reliability.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present guidelines for choosing among six different forms of the intraclass correlation for reliability studies in which n target are rated by k judges, and the confidence intervals for each of the forms are reviewed.

The design and analysis of clinical experiments

TL;DR: The Parallel Groups Design as mentioned in this paper is a special case of the Parallel Groups Study, and it is used to control for prognostic variables in linear regression analysis of linear regressions of linear models.

Quantifying test-retest reliability using the intraclass correlation coefficient and the SEM.

TL;DR: In this review, the basics of classic reliability theory are addressed in the context of choosing and interpreting an ICC and how the SEM and its variants can be used to construct confidence intervals for individual scores and to determine the minimal difference needed to be exhibited for one to be confident that a true change in performance of an individual has occurred.
