1. 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

2. 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

3. 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

4. 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

5. 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

6. 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

7. 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

8. 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

9. The lung in paracoccidioidomycosis: new insights into old problems
OBJECTIVES: Chronic paracoccidioidomycosis can diffusely affect the lungs. Even after antifungal therapy, patients may present with residual respiratory abnormalities due to fungus-induced lung fibrosis. METHODS: A cross-sectional analysis of 50 consecutive inactive, chronic paracoccidioidomycosis patients was performed using high resolution computed tomo

10. Functional status and dyspnea as performance of activities of daily living after physical and inspiratory muscle training in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Background: Exercise training improves exercise capacity, the performance of activities of daily living, decreases dyspnea, and enhances the inspiratory muscle strength in patients with COPD. Less is known on ventilatory and metabolic responses ( E, O2) during the execution activities of daily life (ADL) in patients going through physical training with addit

11. Correlação do teste de caminhada de seis minutos e EuroSCORE com a qualidade de vida em pacientes submetidos à revascularização do miocárdio / Correlation the six-minute walk test and EuroSCORE with the quality of life in patients undergoing
Introduction: The quality of life after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) is not often assessed in the literature. Tools for quality of life assessment are useful for analysis of long-term results, and it is effective for a conference with the clinical team and family s patient. Objective: Assess the quality of life in patients undergoing myocardial reva

12. Functional evaluation indicates physical losses after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
OBJECTIVE: To perform a function evaluation of patients before and after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. METHODS: From November 2008 to November 2010, 29 female (58%) and 21 male patients (42%) with median age of 48 years (range: 24-67) were enrolled in this study. Data collection was performed before and after autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic
