LaStayo, Paul C. | Muscle force and movement variability before and after total knee arthroplasty: a review | Variability in muscle force output and movement variability are important aspects of identifying individuals with mobility deficits, central nervous system impairments, and future risk of falling. This has been investigated in elderly healthy and impaired adults, as well as in adults with osteoarthr... | | 2014-01-01 |

Dibble, Leland E. | Eccentric exercise versus usual-care with older cancer survivors: the impact on muscle and mobility- an exploratory pilot study | Background: Resistance exercise programs with high compliance are needed to counter impaired muscle and mobility in older cancer survivors. To date outcomes have focused on older prostate cancer survivors, though more heterogeneous groups of older survivors are in-need. The purpose of this explorat... | | 2011 |

LaStayo, Paul C. | Resistance exercise with older fallers: Its impact on intermuscular adipose tissue | Objective. Greater skeletal muscle fat infiltration occurs with age and contributes to numerous negative health outcomes. The primary purpose was to determine whether intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) can be influenced by an exercise intervention and if a greater reduction in IMAT occurs with ecce... | | 2014-01-01 |

Foreman, K. Kenneth | Charting the progression of disability in parkinson disease: study protocol for a prospective longitudinal cohort study | Background: People with Parkinson disease (PD), even in the presence of symptomatic relief from medical, surgical, and rehabilitative interventions, face a persistent worsening of disability. This disability is characterized by diminished quality of life, reduced functional mobility, declining perf... | | 2010 |

LaStayo, Paul C. | Intermuscular fat: a review of the consequences and causes | Muscle's structural composition is an important factor underlying muscle strength and physical function in older adults. There is an increasing amount of research to support the clear disassociation between the loss of muscle lean tissue mass and strength with aging. This disassociation implies that... | | 2014-01-01 |

Marcus, Robin | An eccentrically biased rehabilitation program early after TKA surgery | Rehabilitation services are less-studied aspects of the management following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) despite long-term suboptimal physical functioning and chronic deficits in muscle function. This paper describes the preliminary findings of a six-week (12 session) eccentrically-biased rehabili... | | 2011 |

Marcus, Robin | Targeting anabolic impairment in response to resistance exercise in older adults with mobility impairments: potential mechanisms and rehabilitation approaches | Muscle atrophy is associated with healthy aging (i.e., sarcopenia) and may be compounded by comorbidities, injury, surgery, illness, and physical inactivity. While a bout of resistance exercise increases protein synthesis rates in healthy young skeletal muscle, the effectiveness of resistance exerci... | | 2012-01-01 |

Painter, Patricia Lynn | Associations of self-reported physical activity types and levels with quality of life, depression symptoms, and mortality in hemodialysis patients: The DOPPS | Background and objectives Physical activity has been associated with better health status in diverse populations, but the association in patients on maintenance hemodialysis is less established. Patient-reported physical activities and associations with mortality, health-related quality of life, and... | | 2014-01-01 |

Ward, Robert Scott | The physical therapy and society summit (PASS) meeting: observations and opportunities | The construct of delivering high-quality and cost-effective health care is in flux, and the profession must strategically plan how to meet the needs of society. In 2006, the House of Delegates of the American Physical Therapy Association passed a motion to convene a summit on ?how physical therapist... | | 2010 |

Dibble, Leland E. | Development of a scale to assess avoidance behavior due to a fear of falling: the fear of falling avoidance behavior questionnaire | Background. A history of falls or imbalance may lead to a fear of falling, which may lead to self-imposed avoidance of activity; this avoidance may stimulate a vicious cycle of deconditioning and subsequent falls. Objective. The purpose of this study was to develop a questionnaire that would quanti... | | 2011 |
