Cognitive and physical functions among middle-aged and older people: A special emphasis on executive functions and walking
Tirkkonen, Anna (2023)Cognitive and physical functions are key factors for safe walking. Unfortunately, these functions deteriorate with age and therefore older adults may experience difficulties in outdoor mobility. In women, decline in cognitive ... -
Stretch-shortening cycle in skeletal muscle function : with special reference to elastic energy and potentiation of myoelectrical activity
Bosco, Carmelo (1982)Mechanical behaviour of human leg extensor muscles was investigated under conditions of varied stretch-shortening (eccentric-concentric) cycle movements of the vertical jump. In these exercises the muscular performance was ... -
Bidirectional associations between cognitive functions and walking performance among middle-aged women
Tirkkonen, Anna; Kekäläinen, Tiia; Aukee, Pauliina; Kujala, Urho M.; Laakkonen, Eija K.; Kokko, Katja; Sipilä, Sarianna (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2022)Objective: This study investigated whether (1) cognitive functions change after the transition from the perimenopausal to the postmenopausal stage, (2) cognitive functions and walking are associated in middle-aged women, ... -
Effects of chemotherapy and blocking activin receptor signaling on skeletal muscle size, oxidative capacity and function
Poikonen, Aino (2016)Introduction. Doxorubicin (DOX) is widely used as a chemotherapy drug for cancer. However, it is known to affect negatively skeletal muscle mass and function, which can expose to other diseases and decrease survival rate. ... -
Effects of intrinsic aerobic capacity, aging and physical activity on interleukin-15 protein level in serum and skeletal muscle
Hyödynmaa, Juho (2015)Myokines are cytokines and other peptides produced in muscle that can transmit autocrine, paracrine or endocrine signals to other tissues. This is a potential way for exercise to carry out its beneficial effects on different ...
