DOI: 10.1007/s40520-021-01884-1
Abstract: With aging and obesity lower limb torque deteriorates. Importantly, the ratio between knee flexor (KF) and extensor (KE) torque is an indicator of joint stability. We compared KF torque and KF/KE ratio in older subjects… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/life13020458
Abstract: Background: Assessing lower limb strength in the field is problematic, as the “gold standard assessment” with isokinetic strength is cumbersome, and the device is costly and not transportable and keeps the angle of the hip… read more here.
