Detailní popis
As part of participation, the subjects will attend up to 4 visits. During the visits the following testing may occur:
- Vital signs (heart rate, blood pressure), height and weight will be measured.
Tests that assess your mobility and questions about physical function. These tests are listed below and will not be conducted in a particular order, and will take approximately 1.5 hours to complete.
- Walking tests,
Tests of physical ability that include:
- Standing up from chairs of different height
- Lying on the floor and rising to a standing position
- Kneeling on the floor and rising to standing position
- Climbing a flight of stairs
- Lift a weighted laundry basket and placing it on a shelf
- Muscle strength tests will be performed on the legs and arms.
- Questionnaires that address physical function.
- Muscle and nerve testing will be done.
- During the above testing, sensors will be worn on the forehead that use invisible light to indirectly measure blood flow and blood oxygen content of the brain. In addition, sensors may be worn the fingers that measure how the skin conducts electricity. A chest strap that measures heart beats will also be worn. These measures are safe and provide information about the nervous system responds to physical and/or mental challenges.
- Tests will be done that measure memory, attention, vocabulary, problem solving, and planning skills.
- A bone density and body composition measured (scanned) by the machine called DEXA. DEXA scans, like x-rays, are painless, and involve exposure to very small amounts of radiation.
- Images of the brain will be taken using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a procedure that allows doctors to look inside the body by using a scanner that sends out a strong magnetic field and radio waves.
All of these test are done for this study and will not be used to diagnose or treat any medical problems.
The expected length of participation is approximately six hours total, over the course of 4 separate visits.

Neuromuscular integrity by motor unit function
Časové okno: Baseline
|
Tasks that require prolonged muscle force are carried out by slow, fatigue-resistant motor units, while tasks that require a quick but short increase in muscle force are mostly performed by fast motor units.
Many of the postural muscles have a large proportion of S motor units.
On the other hand, muscles that participate in quick limb movements such as kicking, hitting, or catching typically have a large proportion of FR and FF motor units.
Most muscles, however, have a relatively wide range of the various motor units, reflecting their participation in a variety of motor tasks.
