Effect of a Gamified Family-Based Exercise Intervention on Adherence to 24-Hour Movement Behavior Recommendations in Preschool Children: Single-Center Pragmatic Trial

Effect of a Gamified Family-Based Exercise Intervention on Adherence to 24-Hour Movement Behavior Recommendations in Preschool Children: Single-Center Pragmatic Trial

The development of these motor skills tends to contribute to overall PF by enhancing cardiovascular health, muscular strength, and endurance; increasing a child’s confidence and enjoyment of physical activities; and encouraging the development of positive attitudes toward regular PA.

Building Strong Foundations: Nonrandomized Interventional Study of a Novel, Digitally Delivered Fall Prevention Program for Older Adults

Building Strong Foundations: Nonrandomized Interventional Study of a Novel, Digitally Delivered Fall Prevention Program for Older Adults

We used a quasi-experimental design to determine the efficacy of digitally delivered exercise for improving physical function specific to balance, postural control, and muscular strength among older adults at low or moderate risk of falling.

Comparing In-Person, Standard Telehealth, and Remote Musculoskeletal Examination With a Novel Augmented Reality Exercise Game System: Pilot Cross-Sectional Comparison Study

Comparing In-Person, Standard Telehealth, and Remote Musculoskeletal Examination With a Novel Augmented Reality Exercise Game System: Pilot Cross-Sectional Comparison Study

For each joint movement completed, the patient’s strength determines the momentum of a virtual bowling ball for each completed joint movement. VIRTEPEX records and transmits force estimates for each joint movement to a health care provider, who can asynchronously assess the patient’s strength.

A 4-Week Mobile App–Based Telerehabilitation Program vs Conventional In-Person Rehabilitation in Older Adults With Sarcopenia: Randomized Controlled Trial

A 4-Week Mobile App–Based Telerehabilitation Program vs Conventional In-Person Rehabilitation in Older Adults With Sarcopenia: Randomized Controlled Trial

Resistance training has been shown to enhance muscle strength, aerobic endurance, and muscle mass [8]. This includes various exercises using free weights, machines, resistance bands, or body weight. Resistance training has demonstrated notable efficacy in improving strength in patients with sarcopenia [9-12]. Guidelines from the World Health Organization, as well as those from the United Kingdom and Australia, recommend 2-3 sessions of resistance training per week to prevent and manage sarcopenia [13,14].

Examining the Feasibility, Acceptability, and Preliminary Efficacy of an Immersive Virtual Reality–Assisted Lower Limb Strength Training for Knee Osteoarthritis: Mixed Methods Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Examining the Feasibility, Acceptability, and Preliminary Efficacy of an Immersive Virtual Reality–Assisted Lower Limb Strength Training for Knee Osteoarthritis: Mixed Methods Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

This study aimed to pilot-test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of an immersive VR-assisted lower limb strength training for knee osteoarthritis (VRi Knee) through a mixed methods approach. We hypothesized that VRi Knee was feasible as a home-based exercise for knee osteoarthritis.

Effect of Addition of Metal Oxide Nanoparticles on the Strength of Heat-Cured Denture Base Resins: Protocol for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of In Vitro Studies

Effect of Addition of Metal Oxide Nanoparticles on the Strength of Heat-Cured Denture Base Resins: Protocol for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of In Vitro Studies

Furthermore, while the effect of metal oxide nanoparticles on certain aspects of strength, such as flexural and impact strength, has been reviewed, collective evidence of different types of clinically relevant strengths remains unclear.

Effects of a Virtual Reality Cycling Platform on Lower Limb Rehabilitation in Patients With Ataxia and Hemiparesis: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Effects of a Virtual Reality Cycling Platform on Lower Limb Rehabilitation in Patients With Ataxia and Hemiparesis: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

The scientific literature in the field of neurorehabilitation shows that pedaling exercises have the potential to induce improvements in muscle activity, strength, and balance [9]. This is mainly due to the fact that pedaling exercises based on the use of a cycloergometer provide a high number of flexion and extension repetitions [10] in the lower extremities for considerable periods of time.

Effects of Active Video Games in Patients With Cancer: Systematic Review

Effects of Active Video Games in Patients With Cancer: Systematic Review

Physiological outcomes included PA level, motor functions, endurance, strength, and body composition. Psychological outcomes included cancer-related fatigue, quality of life, self-efficacy, anxiety, and depression.
