DOI: 10.1007/s12928-019-00634-5
Abstract: Isometric handgrip is a simple and non-invasive stress test, and has been used prior to open-heart surgeries. The utility of handgrip in transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVR) remains undetermined. A 78-year-old-female with previous anteroseptal myocardial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2020.10.031
Abstract: Imaging and brain stimulation studies seem to correct the classical understanding of how brain networks, rather than contralateral focal areas, control the generation of unimanual voluntary force. However, the scaling and hemispheric-specificity of network activation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ijcp.13876
Abstract: The association between dietary antioxidant quality score (DAQS) and handgrip strength (HS) and handgrip endurance (HE) is still unclear. We aimed to investigate whether adherence to dietary antioxidant quality score (DAQS) is associated with handgrip… read more here.

Handgrip Strength Exercises Modulate Shoulder Pain, Function, and Strength of Rotator Cuff Muscles of Patients with Primary Subacromial Impingement Syndrome
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "BioMed Research International"
DOI: 10.1155/2022/9151831
Abstract: Background Impingement syndrome was shown to be associated with shoulder pain in 44–70% of patients worldwide. It usually occurs due to imbalance and insufficient activation of the rotator cuff (RC) muscles. Aim This study explores… read more here.
