1. Effect of 12 weeks of aquatic strength training on individuals with multiple sclerosis
ABSTRACT Background: Physical exercise programs are recommended for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). However, studies involving aquatic strength training to improve functional capacity in MS are limited. Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of an aquatic strength-training program in improving physical function, strength, and fatigue levels i

2. Reference Equation for the Six-Minute Walk Test in Brazilian Patients with Obesity
Abstract Background: Obesity has repercussions on functional capacity (FC). The six-minute walk test (6MWT) is a useful tool for assessing submaximal FC, and the distance reached at 6 minutes of walking (D6MW) is a relevant prognostic marker. Objective: This paper aims to establish a reference equation for the distance predicted in 6MWT in obese Brazilian

3. Inspiratory Muscle Training Based on Anaerobic Threshold on the Functional Capacity of Patients After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: Clinical Trial
Abstract Introduction: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is associated with reduced ventilatory muscle strength and consequent worsening of functional capacity (FC). Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) can be indicated, but there is still a lack of knowledge about the use of the anaerobic threshold (AT) as a basis for prescription. The objective of this

4. Relationship between gait speed and physical function in patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to analyze the relationship between gait speed and measurements of physical function in patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD). METHODS: One hundred sixty-nine patients (age 66.6±9.4 years) with symptomatic PAD were recruited. Usual and fast gait speeds were assessed with a 4-meter walk test. Objectiv

5. LIPID PROFILE, FUNCTIONAL CAPACITY AND ANKLE-BRACHIAL INDEX IN ACTIVE OLDER ADULTS
RESUMO Introdução: A prática de atividade física regular previne doenças cardiovasculares (DCV) e aterosclerose, além de melhorar o perfil lipídico e a capacidade funcional em idosos. Objetivo: Avaliar e comparar o perfil lipídico, desempenho funcional e índice tornozelo-braquial (ITB) de idosos sedentários e ativos. Métodos: Trata-se de um est

6. Upper limb weight-bearing effect on the body alignment of individuals with cerebral palsy who have spastic hemiparesis: a randomized clinical trial
Resumo Introdução: Pacientes com Paralisia Cerebral (PC) do tipo hemiparesia espástica, costumam apresentar transferência de peso assimétrica entre os hemicorpos. Objetivo: Avaliar os efeitos de um protocolo de exercícios de suporte de peso em membros superiores (MMSS) na simetria do tronco, transferência de peso para o hemicorpo afetado e possíve

7. Clinical and functional variables can predict general fatigue in patients with acromegaly: an explanatory model approach
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate whether hormonal profile, arterial function, and physical capacity are predictors of fatigue in patients with acromegaly. Subjects and methods: This is a cross-sectional study including 23 patients. The subjects underwent a Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS) assessment; serum growth hormones (GH) and IGF-1 measurements; pul

8. Physical activity level and performance in the six-minute walk test of children and adolescents with sickle cell anemia
ABSTRACT Background: To establish determinants of maximum walking distance in the 6-minute walk test of children and adolescents with sickle cell anemia, and to compare the performance in this test with physical activity level between patients and healthy controls. Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed in which the participants answered the Physic

10. Reference equations for the six-minute walk distance based on a Brazilian multicenter study
BACKGROUND: It is important to include large sample sizes and different factors that influence the six-minute walking distance (6MWD) in order to propose reference equations for the six-minute walking test (6MWT). OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the influence of anthropometric, demographic, and physiologic variables on the 6MWD of healthy subjects from differen

11. Strength of the respiratory and lower limb muscles and functional capacity in chronic stroke survivors with different physical activity levels
BACKGROUND: The assessment of strength and its relationships with functional capacity could contribute to more specific and effective disability management of stroke survivors. OBJECTIVE: To compare and investigate associations between measures of strength and functional capacity of 98 chronic stroke survivors, stratified into three groups, according

12. Heart Rate Variability at rest and after the 6-minute walk test (6MWT) in children with cystic fibrosis
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a multisystem disease that affects the cardiorespiratory system and the cardiac autonomic control may be altered at rest and after a submaximal exercise. OBJECTIVE: To assess the cardiac autonomic control by heart rate variability (HRV) analysis before and after a 6-minute walk test (6MWT). METHOD: Thirteen child
