The purpose of GRN-study is: 1. to determine the long-term effectiveness of a 12 weeks lasting physical exercise training program. 2. to determine the costeffectiveness of the 12 weeks lasting physical exercise training program. In aim of the GRN-…
The primary objective is to study the course of muscle (fiber) atrophy in elderly males and females with a fall-related hip fracture or elective hip surgery and the influence of additional nutritional support during hospital admission. Secondary…
To investigate whether twice daily local (calf muscle) NMES attenuates muscle loss during 2 weeks of unilateral ankle immobilization due to an ankle fracture.
The proposed randomized controlled lifestyle intervention studies the effects of an exercise and nutrition intervention in the first year after transplantation on: 1. Exercise capacity, muscle strength, diet, quality of life and social participation…
The aim of this study is to assess the effect of training on the measurement properties of a recently developed disease activity score based on patient reported outcomes and to investigate if such a measure could be implemented in current clinical…
