DOI: 10.1002/jcsm.12863
Abstract: Reduced muscular strength, as measured by absolute grip strength, has been associated with increased risk of some site‐specific cancers. The ability of grip strength to predict other diseases may be affected by whether it is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jcsm.13110
Abstract: There is a large body of evidence linking muscular weakness, as determined by low grip strength, to a host of negative ageing‐related health outcomes. Given these links, grip strength has been labelled a ‘biomarker of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00198-018-4653-z
Abstract: SummaryLow bone mineral density (BMD) gives an increased risk of fractures, which can lead to premature death. Can BMD of the wrist predict mortality? BMD consistent with osteopenia and osteoporosis gave a significantly increased risk… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00421-022-04952-0
Abstract: PURPOSE In sport and exercise, warm-ups induce various physiological changes that facilitate subsequent performance. We have shown that delivering patterned stimulation to cutaneous afferents during sprint cycling mitigates fatigue-related decrements in performance, and that repeated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00520-017-3932-0
Abstract: Muscle weakness in hematological cancer patients undergoing acute stages of treatment is an important concern and strong predictor of poor outcomes. However, evidence of strength loss in the very early stages of cancer treatment is… read more here.
