“…A avaliação da capacidade funcional em idosos é importante, pois pode determinar riscos de dependência futura, quedas, morbidade e mortalidade, e são úteis para direcionar estratégias terapêuticas nessa população, tendo em vista que tais informações complementam o resultado da avaliação nutricional 7,8 .…”

“…Jakobsen, Rask, and Kondrup (2010) evaluated the muscular endurance of healthy individuals and hospital patients, using 70% maximum of grip force maintained for as long as possible. It was found that the endurance of patients was lower than that of the healthy individuals, and that healthy men showed lower endurance, compared to healthy women, probably due to greater participation in high-intensity activities, such as resistance training.…”

“…Until the present moment no study in the literature assessed the relation between the indicators of quality of life and the levels of muscular strength in individuals with IC. However, in studies with healthy individuals and with other non-transmissible chronic diseases, a relation between the levels of isometric maximal strength in the handgrip exercise and the indicators of quality of life was evidenced (24) . The controversy between the present study and the one mentioned above may be attributed both to the characteristics of the individuals and the strength test protocol used, which were different between studies.…”
