Abstract

Background

We established reference values for hand grip strength, muscle mass, walking time, and one-leg standing time as indices reflecting components of locomotive syndrome and associated disability using a large-scale population-based sample from the second survey of the Research on Osteoarthritis/Osteoporosis Against Disability (ROAD) cohort.

Methods

We measured the above-mentioned indices in 2,468 individuals ≥40 years old (826 men, 1,642 women; mean age 71.8 years) during the second visit of the ROAD study. Disability was defined as certified disability according to the long-term care insurance system through public health centres of each municipality.

Results

Mean values for hand grip strength (weaker side), muscle mass of the thighs, walking time for 6 m at the usual pace, and the fastest pace for men were 32.7 kg, 7.0 kg, 5.6 s, and 3.7 s, respectively, and those for women were 20.8 kg, 5.2 kg, 5.9 s, and 4.1 s, respectively. The median values for one-leg standing time (weaker side) were 14 s for men and 12 s for women. The prevalence of disability in men aged 65–69, 70–74, 75–79, and ≥80 was 0.0, 1.0, 6.3, and 8.8%, respectively, and in women was 3.4, 3.5, 9.2, and 14.7%, respectively. There were significant associations between the presence of disability and walking time for 6 m at the usual pace and at the fastest pace, and between the presence of disability and walking speed.

Conclusions

We established reference values for indices reflecting components of locomotive syndrome, and identified significant associations between walking ability and disability.

Proximale Humerusfraktur: Auch 100-Jährige operieren?

01.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Mit dem demographischen Wandel versorgt auch die Chirurgie immer mehr betagte Menschen. Von Entwicklungen wie Fast-Track können auch ältere Menschen profitieren und bei proximaler Humerusfraktur können selbst manche 100-Jährige noch sicher operiert werden.

Sind Frauen die fähigeren Ärzte?

30.04.2024 Gendermedizin Nachrichten

Patienten, die von Ärztinnen behandelt werden, dürfen offenbar auf bessere Therapieergebnisse hoffen als Patienten von Ärzten. Besonders gilt das offenbar für weibliche Kranke, wie eine Studie zeigt.

Notfall-TEP der Hüfte ist auch bei 90-Jährigen machbar

26.04.2024 Hüft-TEP Nachrichten

Ob bei einer Notfalloperation nach Schenkelhalsfraktur eine Hemiarthroplastik oder eine totale Endoprothese (TEP) eingebaut wird, sollte nicht allein vom Alter der Patientinnen und Patienten abhängen. Auch über 90-Jährige können von der TEP profitieren.

Arthroskopie kann Knieprothese nicht hinauszögern

25.04.2024 Gonarthrose Nachrichten

Ein arthroskopischer Eingriff bei Kniearthrose macht im Hinblick darauf, ob und wann ein Gelenkersatz fällig wird, offenbar keinen Unterschied.
