• W348987718 abstract "IntroductionThe evaluation of handgrip strength (HGS) is often used in each population since hand dynamometry is non expensive, very simple and fast, and adopts a well-assessed method for calculating the strength of wrist and digits flexor muscles. Recent studies have highlighted as well, the validity of using hand dynamometer as a method for nutritional evaluation, considering the above mentioned characteristics efficacious enough for muscular function (Budziareck, Pureza Duarte, & Barbosa-Silva, 2008). In addition, like aerobic fitness, muscular fitness as well is an important factor of overall health related fitness and an important predictor for future health (Castro-Pinero et al., 2009; Inskip et al., 2007). Low values of strength in hand may predispose hormone complications or even mortality (Lazarus, Sparrow, & Weiss, 1997; Newman et al., 2006). However, there are few studies in HGS in healthy subjects but with not adequate participants in order to propose normative values (Crosby, Wehbe, & Mawr, 1994; Mathiowetz et al., 1985; Schlussel, dos Anjos, de Vasconcellos, & Kac, 2008). Therefore, the aim of the present study was to examine the HGS values of particular group of people (students of a peripheral institution of Greece) and even to attempt to establish normal reference values for the hand strength among the students of this Technological Educational Institution of Serres, and to study the possible influence of anthropometric variables to this parameter in a more homogeneous sample of healthy adult students comparing with earlier studies.Material & methodsParticipants: Three hundred and sixty healthy Greek students (180 males and 180 females) volunteered and participated in this study. The age range was 18- 24 years and all of them were active students in the Technological Educational Institution of Serres, Greece. The study had a cross-sectional design, and was carried out during a six- month period (October 2011- March of 2012) in the laboratory of physical education of the above mentioned institution. This study met the ethical standards suggested by Technological Educational Institution of Serres, Greece.Procedure/Test protocol: Following the selection process, participants were asked to read and sign an informed consent. As they agreed to meet with the criteria of the study, they proceed to the measurements. Initially, we collected all the data which were useful for the purposes of the current study including age, weight, and height (Table 1). As well as that, a questionnaire was filled by each participant including information such as sports activities, dominant and non-dominant hand, and potential injuries in any of the hands were collected given that these may influence the final results. HGS was measured using a Jamar hydraulic dynamometer (Asimow Engineering C., Los Angeles, CA). For hand grip strength, subjects were seated, with their elbows flexed at 90° and supported at the time of measurement (Hillman et al., 2005). Then they were asked to grip and tighten the dynamometer with maximum effort and to hold the grip for at least 3 sec (Montalcini et al., 2012; Rantanen et al., 2000). Three measurements from each hand and each participant were collected and the mean value of these used in analyses. The measurement unit used was kilogram.Data collection and analysis: The following data were collected and recorded for each participant: age (years), weight height (cm), body mass index (BMI, kg/m2), grip strength of dominant and non-dominant hand.Statistical analysisThe demographic profile of the subjects such as age, sex, hand grip strength and variation was analyzed through descriptive analysis. The mean, standard deviation the hand grip and their determinants would be presented. The correlations between dependant variable handgrip strength and independent variables age, height, weight, body mass index (BMI) were analysed through Pearson Product-moment correlation (intra-class correlation coefficient). …" @default.
