“…Additionally, in the presence of cancer, subclinical inflammation seems to participate in the mechanisms of muscle strength reduction 18 . Some studies 19,20 showed an association between depression and lower handgrip strength in women, as verified in this present investigation. In contrast, other studies 9,21 showed no such association.…”

A B S T R A C T ObjectiveTo investigate the association between various chronic diseases, multimorbidity, and handgrip strength in community dwelling older adults in Southern Brazil. MethodsA cross-sectional study carried out with 477 older adults (60 years and older) who resided in Antônio Carlos, Santa Catarina state. Subjects aged 60-79 years were selected by probability sampling (n=343) and all subjects aged 80 years or older (n=134) were evaluated. Chronic diseases were identified by self-report. A mechanical dynamometer verified handgrip strength (i.e., the outcome). Adjustments variables were age, literacy, living arrangement, smoking, body mass index, cognitive function, and comorbid chronic diseases. Sex-stratified analyses were conducted with simple and multiple linear regression. ResultsA total of 270 women (73.2±8.8 years) and 207 men (73.3±9.0 years) were assessed. In the adjustment analysis, cancer (β=-3.69; 95%CI=-6.97 to -0.41) and depression (β=-1.65; 95%CI=-3.20 to -0.10) were associated with lower handgrip strength in women. For men, diabetes (β=-5.30; 95%CI=-9.64 to -0.95), chronic lung disease (β=-4.74; 95%CI=-7.98 to -1.50), and coronary heart disease (β=-3.07; 95%CI=-5.98 to -0.16) were

“…For example, fear of using the fractured wrist, depression and decreased motivation to do wrist exercises have been reported to have an effect on regaining grip strength. 18 – 20 The Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) was developed to observe the association between pain and catastrophic thinking. 21 Findings in the published literature on other musculoskeletal disorders have revealed that individuals with negative pain-related thoughts are more likely to develop chronic pain.…”

Long-term subjective results and radiologic prognosis of a distal radius fracture in working-aged patients – a prognostic cohort study of 201 patients

et al. 2021

Objective To investigate long-term outcomes associated with distal radius fracture (DRF) in working-aged patients. The authors hypothesized that the majority of patients experience no permanent loss of function when measured with patient-rated wrist evaluation (PRWE). Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of patients with a DRF aged between 18 and 65 years. The primary outcome measure was PRWE score at a minimum of 4 years after DRF. Secondary outcome measures were pain catastrophizing scale (PCS) and radiographic measurements. Results Of 201 patients included, 179 were primarily treated non-operatively with a 5-week cast treatment and 22 were primarily operated. The mean follow-up duration was 5 years. The mean PRWE score was 10.9 (95% confidence interval 8.4, 13.4) and median PRWE was 3.5 (interquartile range, 0.0–13.0). There was minor correlation between PCS and PRWE score (correlation coefficient [CC] 0.3), and between PRWE score and dorsal angulation of the fracture measured after closed reduction (CC 0.2) and in one-week follow-up radiographs (CC 0.2). Conclusions Working-aged patients seem to gain nearly normal wrist function after DRF in longer follow-up. Pain catastrophizing appears to correlate with long-term treatment outcome.

“…9 -16 Studies of elderly men and individuals with clinical depression or anxiety disorders found that depression was correlated with a decline in grip strength. 11,12,14,16 Watson and Ring studied 134 patients with a variety of upper extremity diagnoses and found that grip strength of the involved arm correlated most strongly with the grip strength of the uninvolved arm, but symptoms of depression were a minor factor. 15 The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of psychosocial factors on grip strength in 2 cohorts: a cohort of healthy volunteers and a cohort of patients evaluated 6 weeks after a nonsurgically treated distal radius fracture.…”
