Handgrip Strength Asymmetry and Weakness Together Are Associated With Functional Disability in Aging Americans

Ryan McGrath et al.

Summary: Assessing the impact of handgrip strength asymmetry and weakness on future activities of daily living (ADL) disability showed that both factors increase the likelihood of ADL disability in aging Americans. The study suggests that handgrip strength asymmetry and weakness can enhance the predictive value of handgrip dynamometers.

Muscle Density, but Not Size, Correlates Well With Muscle Strength and Physical Performance

Ling Wang et al.

Summary: This study found that muscle density is more strongly associated with muscle strength than muscle size, and in women muscle density was also more strongly associated with physical performance than muscle size.

Grip Strength and Demographic Variables Estimate Appendicular Muscle Mass Better Than Bioelectrical Impedance in Taiwanese Older Persons

Ming-Yen Hsiao et al.

Summary: The study developed an equation model to accurately estimate appendicular muscle mass, which outperformed the commonly used bioelectrical impedance analysis method, providing a more practical alternative for measuring body composition.

Handgrip Weakness and Asymmetry Independently Predict the Development of New Activity Limitations: Results from Analyses of Longitudinal Data from the US Health and Retirement Study

Kelly Parker et al.

Summary: Examining strength asymmetries in muscle function assessments can help predict future limitations in IADL for aging individuals. Assessing handgrip strength asymmetry may provide novel insights for predicting independent living tasks limitations and should be further studied.

Longitudinal Changes in Muscle Mass, Muscle Strength, and Physical Performance in Acutely Hospitalized Older Adults

Jesse J. Aarden et al.

Summary: This study found that muscle mass decreases in acutely hospitalized older adults, but physical performance significantly improves in the 3 months post-discharge. Muscle strength did not change significantly. Approximately 80% of older adults scored below the cutoff point for muscle mass at 3 months post-discharge.
