Abstract Background Few multi-country European studies have investigated the association
between grip strength and heart diseases incidence. Thus, the aim of this study is to analyse …

Objective:(1) To examine the associations between 3 measures of grip strength: static grip
strength, change in grip strength, and the combination of grip strength and its change, with …

Background Mechanisms underlying the association between grip strength and
cardiovascular mortality are poorly understood. We aimed to assess the association of grip …

Background Decreased grip strength (GS) is predictive of cardiovascular (CV) disease but
whether it improves CV risk prediction has not been evaluated. We assessed the predictive …

Background Grip strength has consistently been found to predict all-cause mortality rates.
However, few studies have examined cause-specific mortality or tested age differences in …

Background Grip strength had become a potential tool for clinical assessments, while the
predictive value of the grip strength of community-based populations had some limitations …

Grip strength—the force exerted when an individual squeezes an object as tightly as
possible with their hands—is an easy, quick, and cheap way to measure muscle strength. In …

Objectives Grip strength has been linked to risk of adverse health outcomes. This study
aimed to quantitatively assess the associations between grip strength and risk of all-cause …

Background: Grip strength has been found to be closely related to mortality and disease
morbidity. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between grip strength and …

Background higher grip strength is associated with better health outcomes. The optimal way
to report grip strength (ie absolute vs. relative) for prediction, however, remains to be …
