| Popis: | STUDY DESIGN A cross-sectional study. OBJECTIVES To investigate the correlation between simple muscle strength tests (including handgrip test and upper limb loading during a seated push-up test [ULL-SPUT]) and body compositions among individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). SETTING A tertiary rehabilitation center. METHODS Twenty-four participants with SCI (average age of 40 years) were cross-sectionally assessed using handgrip test, ULL-SPUT, and body compositions (including skeletal muscle mass, bone mineral content, and fat mass) using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scan. RESULTS The handgrip data had low-to-moderate correlation to body compositions of the arms (rs = 0.474-0.515, p |
