Tornero-Aguilera, José Francisco; Sánchez-Molina, Joaquín; Parraca, Jose A.; Morais, Ana; Clemente-Suárez, Vicente JavierThe aim of this study was to analyze the psychophysiological response of a Crohn’s Disease patient in an ultra-endurance event. The psychophysiological responses of a Crohn’s Disease and non- Crohn’s Disease participant were analysed before during and after an 8 h ultra-endurance running event. Results showed how Crohn’s patient presented a similar psychophysiological response than non-Crohn’s participant in th...

Test-Retest Reliability of Isokinetic Strength Measurements in Lower Limbs in E...
Parraca, Jose A.; Carmelo Adsuar, José; Domínguez-Muñoz, Francisco Javier; Barrios-Fernandez, Sabina; Tomas-Carus, PabloStrength is essential for carrying out the usual activities of daily life. As there is a loss of strength in elderly, many treatments are based on delaying the loss of strength or maintaining it. Isokinetic dynamometry is the gold standard for assessing strength. It is essential that studies are conducted to allow us to identify the reliability of isokinetic strength assessments in older people. This study aime...

Perez-Sousa, Miguel A.; Pedro, Jéssica; Carrasco-Zahinos, Rocio; Raimundo, Armando; Parraca, Jose A.; Tomas-Carus, PabloBackground: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by low physical fitness, pain, and depression. The present study aimed to examine the effects of a supervised aquatic exercise program on physical fitness, depression, and pain in women with RA and determine whether decreases in pain mediate depression. Methods: Forty-three women with RA, divided into an experimental group (EG; n = 21) and a control group (...
Assessment of spatiotemporal ® characteristics of gait, trough the Phyphox app:...
Cabo, Carolina A.; Fernandes, Orlando; Santos, Sara; Parraca, Jose A.Background Spatiotemporal characteristics from human locomotion can provide effective clinical metrics to assess motor control and brain function. This case report aims to assess the temporal structure of variability in stride-to- stride time and calculated the intrinsic fractal frame that is hidden below the repetitive structure of physiologi- cal gait through the “Phyphox” app. This is an innovative study fro...
