Abstract

Background: This study explored the relationship between handgrip strength (HGS) and pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength, and cardiopulmonary endurance in older adults. Methods: We recruited 128 community-dwelling older adults. Correlations between HGS, pulmonary function parameters, respiratory muscle strength, and cardiopulmonary endurance were analyzed. Results: Forced vital capacity (r = 0.180, P < .05), maximum voluntary ventilation (r = 0.180, P < .05), and 2-minute step test (r = 0.204, P < .05) were weakly correlated with HGS. Maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximum expiratory pressure (MEP) had moderate correlations with HGS (r = 0.431 for MIP, 0.492 for MEP, P < .001). Conclusion: HGS was correlated with pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength, and cardiorespiratory endurance.

社区老年人握力与肺功能、呼吸肌力量和心肺健康的关系

背景：本研究探讨了老年人握力（HGS）与肺功能、呼吸肌力量和心肺耐力之间的关系。方法：我们招募了128名居住在社区的老年人。分析了HGS、肺功能参数、呼吸肌力量和心肺耐力之间的相关性。结果：强迫肺活量（r=0.180，P<.05）、最大自主通气量（r=.180，P<.05）和2分钟步进试验（r=0.204，P<0.05）与HGS呈弱相关。最大吸气压（MIP）和最大呼气压（MEP）与HGS具有中等相关性（MIP为0.431，MEP为0.492，P<.001）。结论：HGS与肺功能、呼吸肌强度和心肺耐力相关。
