In this episode of the Movement Logic Podcast, Sarah and Laurel are thrilled to interview esteemed exercise scientist Professor Belinda Beck, investigator in the groundbreaking LIFTMOR trial. They discuss the necessity of high-intensity resistance and impact training for improving bone density, comparing it to less effective exercises like Pilates, yoga, and walking. Professor Beck shares insights on her LIFTMOR, LIFTMOR-M, and MEDEX-OP studies, underlining the importance of mechanical loading for bone health. They explore the misleading promotion of devices like OsteoStrong or courses like Buff Bones that do not provide the necessary rate of loading or magnitude of load to impact bone density. The conversation elucidates the mechanisms of bone adaptation and defends high-intensity training as essential for combating osteoporosis.00:20 Bone Density Course Progress06:28 Guest Introduction08:25 Interview with Professor Belinda Beck16:59 Understanding Bone Health and Research23:46 Bone Adaptation and Remodeling36:15 Bone Remodeling and Exercise Breaks37:52 Exercise Types and Bone Response39:35 Strength Training and Client Engagement42:37 Effective Exercise for Osteoporosis44:00 Impact of Weight-Bearing Activities48:47 High-Intensity Training for Older Adults53:14 Impact Training and Bone Health01:02:12 Marketing vs. Science in Osteoporosis Treatment01:04:09 Comparing Exercise Programs for Bone HealthReferences:Get on the wait list for our Bone Density CourseOnero at the Bone ClinicBecome an Onero ProviderHigh-Intensity Resistance and Impact Training Improves Bone Mineral Density and Physical Function in Postmenopausal Women With Osteopenia and Osteoporosis: The LIFTMOR Randomized Controlled TrialA Comparison of Bone-Targeted Exercise Strategies to Reduce Fracture Risk in Middle-Aged and Older Men with Osteopenia and Osteoporosis: LIFTMOR-M Semi-Randomized Controlled TrialA Comparison of Bone-Targeted Exercise With and Without Antiresorptive Bone Medication to Reduce Indices of Fracture Risk in Postmenopausal Women With Low Bone Mass: The MEDEX-OP Randomized Controlled TrialREMS Echolight Bone ScanPaul Grilley Bone PhotographsMechanosensitivity of the rat skeleton decreases after a long period of loading, but is improved with time offEpisode 53: Your Bones Are BoredExercise to prevent falls in older adults: an updated systematic review and meta-analysisOptimum frequency of exercise for bone health: randomised controlled trial of a high-impact unilateral interventionOsteostrong: 3 Things You Should KnowTwelve-Minute Daily Yoga Regimen Reverses Osteoporotic Bone LossBuff Bones
In this episode, Kylee and Zoë explore the complicated history that humans have with alcohol and athletics. We dive into the deep past (shoutout to our simian ancestors!) and see why scientists think humans developed a taste for something that seems counterproductive to passing on our genes (looking at you, Smirnoff blue raspberry). We try to parse out why alcohol is so closely tied to endurance sports and take a deep dive into what the research says about this substance (spoiler alert: three shots of whiskey do NOT make you better at running on a treadmill.)

Show Notes Today's Guests: Jason Falvey PT, DPT, PhD jfalvey@som.umaryland.edu https://www.medschool.umaryland.edu/profiles/falvey-jason/ Twitter: @JayRayFalvey Please look for Jason's full speech in a future 2024 Journal of Acute Care Physical Therapy issue. Guest Quotes: 2:44 “physical function is a really, really important predictor of how successfully people are going to transition to the next level of care. And when I say successful discharge, I don't just mean readmissions…if you ask patients what they care about, that's not necessarily what they're going to say is they're not going to say, I don't want to visit the hospital in the next 30 days. And then after that, I don't care. They really care about being at home, being able to age in place successfully, being able to functionally improve. So PTs have a lot to do with, you know, helping patients reach their goals and things that are maybe not exactly the same as the things your hospital system says are important.” 6:54 “Acute care PTs never know what happens to that person when they leave. They can't close the loop on equipment or modifications or caregiver training that they recommend. And you're hoping that everything goes smoothly with a care, you know, transition where that person gets the home care that you recommended or goes to outpatient that you recommended. But you don't have You know value from your organization to say we're going to consider it productive time for you to call and follow up …” 15:26 “I think one of the issues I have with productivity systems that are built on touching people is we really have created a volume based model. And do you really feel like you're able to address every person's need comprehensively? When, you have, you know, more credit for initial evaluations or new patients or metrics to see every patient within 24, 48 hours, right, it's, if we started highlighting the value of these other things, maybe there's advocacy and support and budgets at the hospital for more therapists or people to take on different roles.” Rapid Responses: If you had to co treat with a cartoon character on a home health visit, which cartoon character would you co treat with? “Oh, the genie from Aladdin for sure.” You know you work in Post-acute care when: You are working on a Sunday to get your last visit slash minute slash whatever you need to hit your metrics for the week are.

Osteosarcoma Webinar Series: Keri Schadler, PhD and Kiri Ness, PT, PhD, FAPTA will partner to provide information about the importance of exercise for patients undergoing treatment as well as long term survivors of osteosarcoma. Together, they will provide a clinical perspective as well as an overview of the latest evidence that documents the need for and the initial success of exercise intervention during and after treatment for cancer. Dr. Schadler is an Associate Professor in the Department of Pediatrics at MD Anderson Cancer Center. Her lab utilizes mouse models and collaborations with clinical investigators to delineate the multi-faceted effects of exercise on the tumor microenvironment. Specifically, the Schadler lab aims to understand how exercise changes cellular and molecular signaling within the tumor vasculature and immune cells, and to use exercise as a tool to enhance tumor response to standard therapies. Dr. Ness is a physical therapist and clinical epidemiologist whose research focuses on the late effects of childhood and adolescent cancer and its treatment. She has a particular interest in human movement and performance, designing interventions to prevent functional loss during therapy or remediate impairment following curative treatment. She has over 350 peer reviewed original research papers and has had continuous funding to support her work since 2005. She is the MPI of the St. Jude Lifetime Cohort and PI of the Human Performance Laboratory at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

I det här avsnittet forskningsspanar vi tillsammans med Peter Martin. Peter är läkaren och medicine doktorn som lämnade läkemedelsforskningen och startade Funmed, en läkarklinikkedja som arbetar med precisionshälsa på funktionsmedicinsk grund. Idag pratar vi om en ny stor studie som heter Supplementing Glycine and N-Acetylcysteine (GlyNAC) in Older Adults Improves Glutathione Deficiency, Oxidative Stress, Mitochondrial Dysfunction, Inflammation, Physical Function, and Aging Hallmarks: A Randomized Clinical Trial.Glycin och Cystein är två viktiga aminosyror och den här studien visar vilka fördelar man kan få på hälsan hos äldre personer som tar tillskott av glycin och N-acetylcystein (NAC). Peter förklarar hur själva studien är upplagd och genomförd samt går igenom de spännande resultaten. Vi pratar också om vikten av kollagen i kosten och hur vi under evolutionen klarat oss utan några som helst tillskott. Det här är verkligen superspännande, så precis som titeln antyder så har det kopplingar till allt från oxidativ stress, mitokondriefunktion, inflammation till vår fysiska kroppsfunktion och åldrande. För alla som vill leva länge och bibehålla funktioner som att kunna resa sig från en stol, bära sina matkassar eller gå upp för en trappa, även upp i hög ålder, verkar det finnas mycket att hämta i just glycin och NAC.OBS! Doserna av glycin och NAC som de använde i studien är rejält höga och deltagarna screenas både före och under studien av medicinsk kunnig personal. Vi rekommenderar inte att du tar dessa höga doser av glycin eller NAC. Mer information om studien hittar du i länken nedan.Länk till studien hittar du här:https://academic.oup.com/biomedgerontology/article/78/1/75/6668639Här är mer information om Peter Martin och Funmed: https://www.funmed.se Vårt avsnitt om anti-aging med läkaren Suzana Maltar Zoric hittar du här: https://shows.acast.com/halsosnack/episodes/254-suzana-maltar-zoric-longevityPeters avsnitt om oxalater hittar du här: https://shows.acast.com/halsosnack/episodes/157petermartin-varfordingronasmoothieintearsanyttigsommantrott- Hosted on Acast.

Grit is the disposition to strive for long-term goals despite setbacks and challenges. Given the lengthy, arduous process of rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), an athlete's grit may predict postoperative outcomes across time. In conclusion, athletes with higher baseline grit reported superior postoperative physical function and activity level over the course of 1 year after ACLR compared with less gritty athletes. Grit may be a useful measure in predicting success in regaining physical function across time after ACLR in adolescent athletes. To read the article, click here.
Welcome to Episode 51 of the Movement Logic podcast! In this episode, Laurel and Sarah discuss myths around osteoporosis and osteopenia, including why yoga and Pilates are poor choices for bone building (yes, we'll talk about THAT study, again) and ultimately how weight training and impact training are both safe options when applied with the proper dosage and programming.You will learn: Osteoporosis and osteopenia, defined Why so many people with osteoporosis are afraid of falling What the fear-mongering messaging around osteoporosis is disempowering people with osteoporosis Why strength training is not only tolerable for people with osteoporosis, it's essential How no progressive overload in weight training is like staying in kindergarten forever Why the myth that yoga reverses osteoporosis from the Fishman study prevails to this day, and why this is proof that we need to keep a critical eye about research Why the Fishman paper does not prove what it claims to prove How yoga asana might help bone density for a very short time, but strength and impact training are your best bets overall What is cellular accommodation and what does it mean for your bone density building Types of movement classes for osteoporosis and their respective claims around their safety and efficacy Is Osteosteong a good choice to build bone density?

Welcome back to a NEW season of PT Elevated where we are broadening our topics to include more researchers but still focusing on topics that you can use in your clinic every day. This season some of our speakers are guests who will be live in-person at the EIM Align Conference this August 26-28 in Dallas, Texas. On our eleventh episode of season 3, Heidi Moyer, PT, DPT, GCS, CEEAA a Board-Certified Clinical Specialist in Geriatric Physical Therapy (GCS) and a Certified Exercise Expert in Aging Adults (CEEAA) joins us! Heidi is the Program director for Evidence In Motion's Geriatric Certification Program currently. She has previous teaching experience with EIM, Illinois Physical Therapy Association, and for conferences such as National Student Conclave and Combined Sections Meeting. Heidi is an active APTA Geriatrics member, serving as a leader in multiple roles for APTA Geriatrics with the State Advocate Program and Balance and Falls Special Interest Group (BFSIG) as well as for the Illinois Physical Therapy Association, where they are the active chair of the IPTA Geriatric Special Interest Group (GeriSIG). We are so lucky to have her joining us at the Align conference this year! Heidi's Align Session Preview: Heidi will be presenting at the conference during lab 6, “Move Well and OPTIMIZE Always,” alongside Teresa Schuemann, PT, DPT, ATC, CSCS, SCS & Jennifer Stone, PT, DPT, OCS, PHC. The lab is hands-on and interactive. Its goal is to look at the maximization optimization of management and assessment and screening over of athletes across the life span. They will be looking at how you can optimize the performance of athletes across the lifespan, starting at the screening process, then assessment and management. Heidi will be talking about the importance of plyometrics in training older adults and particularly in athletes that are in a plyometrics sport. As well as looking at the senior fitness examination and how you can integrate that in your practice to give you a guidance to how to manage older adults that are athletes. This lab will be presented twice on Friday, once in the morning, once in the afternoon and once on Sunday, in the morning. Here are some of the highlights: In this episode Heidi expands on her experience working in geriatric physical therapy and becoming a geriatric certified clinical specialist. Heidi does say that you do have to be a jack of all trades because you are not just studying one body system or one joint in the body when looking at our older adults. The geriatric population can be present anywhere. She says her favorite geriatric topic to look at is health promotion and wellness and trying to get people moving long after we discharge them. She is very interested in keeping the geriatric population active and healthy. She also is interested in the topic of ageism. Whether that is self-ageism or ageism reflected from someone else. Heidi completed her Certified Exercise Expert for Aging Adults (CEEAA) through the geriatrics academy through the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA). It consists of 3-weekend intensive that included, assessment, interventions, and lastly special populations. There was then a written exam and a practical exam. The whole focus was to provide hand-on skills to be able to get access to outcome measures and get facetime with experts in the field within APTA geriatrics to learn about some of these test and measures that are not taught in entry level DPT programs. Heidi says it was a great way to get clinical skills, to see changes in management with her patients, trace progress closely and more. Heidi says medication reconciliation is within the scope for physical therapists to perform for patients and serves as a safety net to make sure the medications are doing what they are supposed to do. Heidi works hybrid home health currently and the medication reconciliation is her least favorite part. Heidi expands on career negative habits she picked up on and has broken over the years of practicing in the clinic, the fall risk assessment and handling patient falls, using the available assessment tools and more! Heidi's Clinical Pearl for Physical Therapist working with Pharmacist– “If you have an interest in older adults and working with the geriatric population jump on the continuing education train. While the entry level DPT curriculum is obviously good enough to get us pass the exam, it is not sufficient to be an excellent clinician when working with older adults. If geriatrics is your passion or if you are in a setting where you do not have a choice and you must see patients of Medicare age, get into some continuing education classes, and make yourself comfortable. We are dealing with human lives and livelihoods and quality of life. We do not want to take that lightly. Do not be afraid to learn more, you are going to have to if you want to work with older adults.” Helpful research and training: Geriatric Certification Introduction to Geriatric Rehabilitation Geriatric Cardiovascular & Pulmonary Exercise Prescription in Geriatric Rehab Regulatory, Legal, and Policy Issues in Geriatric Rehabilitation Geriatric Related Neurological Conditions Management of Geriatric Musculoskeletal Conditions Integumentary Conditions Certified Exercise Expert for Aging Adults – American Physical Therapy Association High-Intensity Resistance and Impact Training Improves Bone Mineral Density and Physical Function in Postmenopausal Women With Osteopenia and Osteoporosis: The LIFTMOR Randomized Controlled Trial Ad Info: We are excited to be back in person and back to hands-on learning for the 2022 Align Conference.

On this episode, we'll hear what genetic counselors wish providers would say to their patients. We'll uncover a few common barriers to genetic counseling and testing for patients with cancer and—from the genetic counselor's perspective—how providers can help improve the uptake of testing delivered via telehealth to educate, inform, and improve patient care. Genetic counselors—as members of the cancer care team—can help patients better understand their cancer diagnosis, make informed treatment decisions, and navigate the financial costs of testing.

Is offsetting bone losses in menopause with high impact safe? Is it recommended? Aren't you more prone to fractures? This episode explores the recent research in honor of Menopause Awareness Month (and Osteoporosis Day October 20, 2021). If you're trying to prevent, if you've been diagnosed, or if you've got younger women in your life who need this information NOW to be better prepared than we could have known to be… this is for you. Episode sponsor: Flipping50 Fitness Specialist (learn more here about how to become one and grow a successful business while you do it) Bone Losses in Menopause Average bone loss is 1.5% per year for the spine and 1.1% - 1.4% for the femoral neck in the first 4-5 years post menopause. Losses slow slightly after this and then increase again in latter decades. Just 6 months into the pandemic research began to emerge about the long-term health effects of short-term muscle loss. The possible devasting disability includes sarcopenia and osteoporosis both, as well as increases in risk of obesity. A combined loss of muscle, strength, bone, with or without increased body fat sets up females specifically for avoidable negative health effects. Osteoporosis & Exercise Exercise is recommended but often with poor and non-specific guidelines for having the most benefit. The purpose of this post is to: Present the continuum of activity results on bone mineral density Present other valuable components of exercise Support prioritization of exercise time for readers Consider a variety of exercises (and non-exercise) interventions and their results Integrating safety Optimal exercise interventions are those favoring a mechanical stimulus on bone both through antigravity loading and the stress exerted on muscles. Two types of activity for osteoporosis prevention and post-diagnosis therapeutic effects: Weight-bearing activities Strength/Resistance exercises What is weight-bearing activity? Defined as any activity one performs on one or more feet. Technically, however it would also include activity weight bearing on the upper body as in a downward facing dog. Where bone density is concerned, there are levels of weight-bearing. Standing in tree pose is weight bearing. Using an elliptical is weight bearing. Neither of those however has any striking force involved as when there is a heel strike in walking. The greater the strike the greater the force to bone. What is resistance exercise? Technically, resistance exercise is anything that provides additional overload to the muscle (and bone) beyond activities of daily living. Resistance exercise includes use of machine and free weights, body weight, tubing, bands, even water exercise or swimming is viewed as resistance training. Each activity falls along a continuum of benefits. As you might guess, use of machine or free weights will surpass swimming or water exercise for bone density benefits. Use of weight training also surpasses benefits from bands and tubing. Though use of bands and tubing may be a first step, an only option depending on access to dumbbells, or machine weights, or support lateral movements unachievable from free-weights alone, the application of heavy resistance is most beneficial and more closely mimics activity of daily life. Of the two activities for osteoporosis prevention and therapeutic effects, strength/resistance exercise have the greatest benefit. This is due to the overload and what is referred to as Minimal Effective Stress (MES). Minimum Effective Stress Walking alone does not improve bone mass. It may have a limited contribution to slowing bone losses. The limit to benefits of walking occurs due to an effect called Minimal Effective Stress. For example, if you walk 2 or 3 miles several times a week, neither walking more days a week or walking 4 or 5 miles offers more bone benefit. You're already adapted to the stress of your own body weight. What would potentially change or increase bone benefit would be jogging or adding a weighted vest during the walk. (Note: not handheld weights). Similarly, with jogging, once you can jog or run, you don't get greater benefits by running longer or more frequently. In fact, long distance runners who find low body fat, low body weight, may be at greater risk for low bone density. Older runners who do no resistance training with heavy weight are prone to fractures as much (or more if lower body weight) as general population. It's Not All Bone Strength There is also more than the strength of the bone and of the muscle in consideration of activity. As aforementioned, the balance or stability-enhancing benefit of an activity also plays a part in reducing risk of falls. Where heavy resistance exercise is not possible, lighter weight and balance activities alone will still be beneficial, though not to bone, to improved stability and balance. It's important that balance is specific to balance practice. Agility, balance and coordination don't come from strength alone, but must be practiced. For anyone seeking bone density and muscle strength, exercise selection should match those goals. For anyone limited by conditions, injuries, or access, a greater emphasis should be placed on balance and stability, each of which require less equipment. In either case, balance and agility/reaction skills are specific and need to be trained. They aren't just added benefits from strength training. The Research Women in menopause transition are susceptible to muscle and bone losses that lead to sarcopenia and osteoporosis, respectively. That makes them more prone to falls, fractures, and then increasing bedrest and instability leading to frailty and early death. How Much Muscle is Typically Lost? Traditionally, loss of muscle can be about 8% per decade beginning at age 30. There's an annual decline in total body LM during 4 to 5 years of the menopausal transition accelerates. The rapid acceleration of losses over a short period of time sets of alarms. If this isn't countered with sufficient resistance training during that time, or mitigated soon after, it leads to a cascade of events including bone losses. The accelerated losses do slow again after the surge in early post menopause. Yet, in another decade or more they again accelerate to nearly 1% annual decline in leg LM among women between the ages of 70 and 79. Start at the Beginning The early research for exercise in osteoporosis prevention and treatment was conservative. The list of contraindications for those diagnosed with osteoporosis was long or at least limiting. Recent studies however, explore the intensity of exercise that does more than slows bone losses in favor of that which -even after menopause- where once thought game over, bone density can be improved. Conservative Start Early research scared many women who may have been avid exercise enthusiasts with a passion for downhill skiing or golf, into thinking they couldn't potentially participate any longer. It suggested they suddenly come with a “fragile” label and are resigned to light and safe exercise. One particular study in the Clinical Interventions in Aging journal I've spoke of before but bears mentioning as I kick off this section of a review of studies suggests otherwise. Post- diagnosis, there are considerations, and you have unique needs. You can however, and possibly should, find high intensity exercise that will start and wisely progress that includes both high impact weight bearing exercise and high intensity weight training. That is, includes jumping, as well as heavy weight training. A study intended to be 18 months long was cut short by Covid at 13 months when supervision was no longer possible in March 2020, revealed even without getting to the most intense phase of the program, bone density was improved. In addition, compliance was high, injuries were non-existent. 12-month high impact programs Significantly better results were found in women who did high impact exercise and medication and dietary changes than medication and dietary changes alone. High impact- jumping, hopping, explosive movements was safe and effective 24-week aerobic dance programs Another study in Medicine published in 2019 showed 3 times per week high impact exercise with women not taking HRT, improved bone density. Site-Specific Benefits High intensity exercise is a more effective stimulus for lumbar spine BMD than low or moderate intensity, but not femoral neck BMD, however, the latter finding may be due to lack of power in the exercises performed. Additional Proof for High Intensity High Impact for Bone Losses in Menopause A 2020 study published in the International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity looked at women 65 and older. For them too higher doses of activity and particularly those involving resistance training are significantly more effective. Let's talk about dose where exercise for bone density is concerned. It's important to know increasing frequency beyond 2-3 times a week is not the best way to increase volume. The better application of volume is increased amount of resistance, and increased sets. This will result in a decreased number of repetitions. While muscle can benefit from greater repetitions (performed with smaller weights), bone cannot. If you are able to lift heavy (defined as reaching fatigue in 10 or fewer repetitions) you will have the most bone benefits. Recent Research is Most Specific While you may choose to believe that yoga, that pilates, that walking improves bone density, you'll want to keep this in mind. In a review of literature including 75 articles, published from 1989 to 2019, results were too variable to conclude exercise effects on osteoporosis. This is proof that some protocols DO and some DO NOT benefit bone density. This makes the statement, “something is better than nothing” questionable if you have a specific goal. You can't do your boyfriend's, your daughters, or your best friend's exercise program and expect the specific results you want without checking the match for your priorities. What we need is an exercisematch.com so you can sort through the prolific options and be sure that if your goal is bone density, or weight loss, or reducing arthritic pain, you are doing the right exercise to match this goal and any limitations. Flipping50's mission is to make this a little easier for you. Other Health Benefits High intensity aerobic activity in a small co-hort of post menopausal women increased HDL, decreased body fat, and improved VO2 (cardiovascular fitness) but did nothing to lean muscle mass. Now, at first glance this is good. At second you might not think entirely. Even with a loss of body fat, because of the decrease in overall weight, metabolism will be lower. Without adjustments in dietary intake ultimately weight regain is likely. A 2018 study in the Journal of Bone Mineral Research employed a protocol of high intensity loads (5 reps to fatigue x 5) for 4 different exercises, including high impact drop jumps. This study too had a high compliance level, one/100 adverse effects (low back spasm), and positive bone density improvements. Yoga Poses for Bone Density Some holes in the yoga study make it difficult to discern if the yoga was exclusively responsible for bone density improvement. There wasn't enough control in the activity and habits of the participants. Monthly gain in BMD was significant in spine (0.0029 g/cm2, P = .005) and femur (0.00022 g/cm2, P = .053). At 22, 22, and 24 months, respectively, 72, 81, and 83 of these subjects reported mean gains of 0.048, 0.088, and 0.0003 g/cm2 per month which is the equivalent 1.152 (22 mos) and .0072 (24 mos). Compare to 24 weeks strength training that include 3.1 ± 4.6%. There's a significant difference both in results. Yoga and Pilates for Bone Density A 2021 study published in PLoS One showed only non-significant results on BMD. Benefits do occur for balance and stability. As a means of risk reduction from fall-related fractures there is value in these activities. What we each need to do is determine what is our realistic time spend and co-create a program based on the most influential exercises for each of our unique goals. It is possible to create a program that is inclusive of the high intensity strength training, the high impact (where a wise choice) activity, and the balance and stability building movements. This doesn't have to mean many and separate sessions weekly. Minutes of balance and stability work regularly can be included in warm ups and cool downs. Whole Body Vibration for Bone Density Best indicated for the frail unable to perform other resistance exercises. For greatest effectiveness must contain a component of strength training. There is a degree of improvement in balance and stability from WBV. However, the biggest benefit is from resistance training combined with WBV, not in performing WBV alone. The additional benefit if the platform is available is worth it. The investment in the equipment for home, may not be the best or wisest use of time. There you have it. This summary of recent bone losses and menopause research (provided during Menopause Awareness Month) is intended to get you pointed in the right direction for your exercise journey.

Abstract: Dual declines in gait speed and cognitive performance are associated with increased risk of developing dementia. Characterizing the patterns of such impairments therefore is paramount to distinguishing healthy from pathological aging. Nonhuman primates such as vervet/African green monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus) are important models of human neurocognitive aging, yet the trajectory of dual decline has not been characterized. We therefore 1) assessed whether cognitive and physical performance (i.e., gait speed) are lower in older aged animals; 2) explored the relationship between performance in a novel task of executive function (Wake Forest Maze Task: WFMT) and a well-established assessment of working memory (Delayed Response Task: DR Task); and 3) examined the association between baseline gait speed with executive function and working memory at one-year follow-up. We found 1) physical and cognitive declines with age; 2) strong agreement between performance in the novel WFMT and DR task; and 3) that slow gait predicted poor cognitive performance in both domains. Our results suggest that older-aged vervets exhibit a coordinated suite of traits consistent with human aging and that slow gait may be a risk factor for cognitive decline. This integrative approach provides evidence that gait speed and cognitive function differ across the lifespan in female vervet monkeys, which advances them as a model that could be used to evaluate the trajectory of dual decline over time.

Velkommen til Smerteuniverset Episode 1 - Alt om rygsmerter Simon Kirkegaard fra Smertevidenskab.dk byder PhD Pernille Frederiksen indenfor i Smerteuniverset, til en snak om rygsmerter samt hendes egen forskning på området. Der stilles skarpt på den viden, vi på nuværende tidspunkt har om rygsmerter. Den gængse samfundsmæssige og sundhedsfaglige opfattelse af rygsmerter belyses og de problematikker som hører hertil. Det understreges at smerter sjældent er så simple som de kan forekomme at være. Hovedbudskaber Dårlig sammenhæng mellem scanningsfund og smerter De fleste rygsmerter har en god prognose Intense rygsmerter er ikke nødvendigvis tegn på alvorlig tilstande i ryggen Ryggen er stærk og robust Rygsmerter påvirkes af mange forskellige faktorer udover kropslige. Eksempelvis kan tidligere erfaringer, overbevisninger og forventninger spille en stor rolle Fysisk aktivitet/bevægelse er hensigtsmæssigt i de rette doser selvom man har smerter Gode råd til håndtering og rehabilitering af rygsmerter Simon og Pernille taler om hvordan mødet med sundhedsvæsenet nogle gange kan skabe unødvendige bekymringer omkring almindelige, kortvarige rygsmerter og hvordan disse bekymringer potentielt kan bidrage til at smerterne vedvarer i længere tid. De taler om udviklingen af kroniske smerter og de faktorer som kan øge risikoen og kommer med forslag til hvordan behandlingssystemet kan gøre det endnu bedre. Diskusprolaps er almindeligt forstået som en årsag til rygsmerter men Simon og Pernille forklarer hvorfor denne tilstand ikke altid kan forklare hvorfor en person har ondt i ryggen samt belyser hvorfor tilstanden har en god prognose. Til slut fortæller Pernille om sit PhD projekt hvor 2 x 1 times information omkring rygsmerter øgede chancerne væsentligt for at deltagerne tog på arbejde på trods af rygsmerter. Pernille giver derudover sit forslag til hvilken viden, der vil være mest værdifuld at gøre tilgængelig og forståelig for alle - fagpersoner som lægmænd.

Brought to you by CSMi This episode explores the application of exercises starting 2 months after total knee replacement. Is working with a PT better than just joining a community program? If there are performance improvements, is there much of an effect on perceived function? How difficult is it to answer these questions? Effectiveness of Later-Stage Exercise Programs vs Usual Medical Care on Physical Function and Activity After Total Knee Replacement: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Illness perception is defined as the cognitive representations or beliefs that patients have about their illness. It basically means that how you perceive your illness has an influence on the way you think, what you believe is possible, and perhaps most importantly, what you do moving forward. Physiotherapist Edwin de Raaij recently completed a systematic review called the Association of Illness Perception and Prognosis for Pain and Physical Function in Patients with Non-Cancer Musculoskeletal Pain. This is an important topic because illness perceptions have been associated with pain intensity as well as physical function in individuals with all types of musculoskeletal pain. Illness perception is a large part of Edwin’s current doctoral work. He dives into this important topic and shares a tool that he uses with his patients to help them understand pain.

Dr Marwan Bukhari talks to Prof Jon Giles, Columbia University, New York, USA, regarding his paper on the associations of muscle mass relative to fat mass with physical function in RA. Prof Giles states both his and his co-authors past research indicates that body composition, low muscle and high fat, is very strongly associated with physical function and, in some cases, more strongly associated with physical dysfunction thank the number of swollen and tender joints a patient has. He highlights the importance of considering muscle and fat mass impact on patients to improve physical function. They discuss the next steps to be taken to build on this research.
