 * important as the language of the node we're linking to, and even then only
 * if language path prefixing (eg /ja/node/123) is in use. REMEMBER THIS IN THE
 * FUTURE, ALBRIGHT.
 *
 * The below code uses the @ operator before parse_url() calls because in PHP
 * 5.3.2 and earlier, parse_url() causes a warning of parsing fails. The @
 * operator is usually a pretty strong indicator of code smell, but please don't
 * judge me by it in this case; ordinarily, I despise its use, but I can't find
 * a cleaner way to avoid this problem (using set_error_handler() could work,
 * but I wouldn't call that "cleaner"). Fortunately, Drupal 8 will require at
 * least PHP 5.3.5, so this mess doesn't have to spread into the D8 branch of
 * Pathologic.

<p>This study aimed at comparing the power of handgrip strength with that of leg extension strength to predict slow walking. &nbsp;</p>
<p>For this purpose leg strength, handgrip strength, and gait speed of 6,766 men and women, aged 67 to 93, were measured. Strength cutpoints associated with slow gait speed were developed using classification and regression tree analyses and compared using ordinary least squares regression models.</p>
<p>The cutpoints of lower extremity strength associated with slow gait speed were 154.6 N-m in men and 89.9 N-m in women for isometric leg extension strength and 94.5 N-m in men and 62.3 N-m in women for isokinetic leg extension strength. Weakness defined according to handgrip strength (odds ratios (OR) = 1.99 to 4.33, c-statistics = 0.53 to 0.67) or leg strength (ORs = 2.52 to 5.77; c-statistics = 0.61 to 0.66) was strongly related to odds of slow gait speed. Lower extremity strength contributed 1% to 16% of the variance and handgrip strength contributed 3% to 17% of the variance in the prediction of gait speed depending on sex and mode of strength assessment.</p>

</div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-comment field-type-text-long field-label-hidden view-mode-full"><div class="field-items" id="md5"><div class="field-item even"><p><strong><u>Comment:</u></strong> Handgrip strength may be an adequate measure to predict physical function in clinical settings. These date provide support for selecting grip strength as a measure of strength in developing a clinical definition of sarcopenia. Leg extension strength is only a slightly better predictor of slow gait speed. Thus, results support performing a preliminary strength assessment using the handgrip strength dynamometer, although more-intricate measures of muscle-specific lower extremity strength may be used for follow-up testing. Alternatively, because gait measures are relatively easy to perform in the office setting, and because strength measures explain only a small percentage of the variance in gait speed, it may be more useful to measure gait speed directly. Slow gait speed might then prompt a search for contributing causes such as muscle weakness. Nevertheless, these results will be useful in the development of consensus diagnostic criteria for sarcopenia from a muscle specific perspective.</p>
