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 (Healthy Ageing, Allied Health Care And Nursing); 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. (Lectoraat Fysiotherapie - Transitie Van Zorg Bij Complexe Patiënten); 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 …

Short-term muscle disuse lowers myofibrillar protein synthesis rates and induces anabolic resistance to protein ingestion.

B.T. Wall; M.L. Dirks; T. Snijders; Jan-Willem van Dijk; M. Fritsch; L.B. Verdijk; Luc van Loon

Disuse leads to rapid loss of skeletal muscle mass and function. It has been hypothesized that short successive periods of muscle disuse throughout the lifespan play an important role in the development of sarcopenia. The physiological mechanisms underlying short-term muscle disuse atrophy remain to …

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 …

Skeletalmuscle training for spinalmuscular atrophy type 3

Jacqueline Montes; Bart Bartels; W.Ludo van der Pol; Janke F. de Groot (Lid Lectoraat)

This is the protocol for a review and there is no abstract. The objectives are as follows: To assess the effects of skeletal muscle training on functional performance in people with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) type 3 and to identify any adverse effects

A 3-day EGCG-supplementation reduces interstitial lactate concentration in skeletal muscle of overweight subjects.

J. Most; J.G. van Can; Jan-Willem van Dijk; G.H. Goossens; J. Jocken; J.J. Hospers; I. Bendik; E.E. Blaak

Green tea, particularly epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), may affect body weight and composition, possibly by enhancing fat oxidation. The aim of this double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled cross-over study was to investigate whether 3-day supplementation with EGCG (282 mg/day) stimulates fat oxidation …

Screening young adults for risk factors for chronic diseases.

Steven Onkelinx (Begeleider); Andrea Gustafsson (Student)

Strength training is a part of the physical therapy for COPD patients, in particular to keep the lungs functioning optimally and to retain the strength of skeletal muscle tissue. It would be interesting to see whether there is a relation between overall body strength and lung capacity. Therefore, we …
