Background: The hyperbolic torque-duration curve depicts critical torque (CT) and W prime (W′), with the curve’s asymptote representing CT as the boundary between heavy- and severe-intensity domains. W′, the curvature constant, indicates cumulative work beyond CT. This study investigated age-related reductions in W′, CT, and gait speed, and whether W′ and CT predict gait speed independently of muscle torque. Methods: three groups (adults, middle-aged, older) totaling 131 women were studied. W′ and CT were determined using 60 maximal isometric voluntary contractions of knee extensors. The fast gait speed was calculated in walking tests at 10 m, 400 m, and six minutes (6 MWT). Results: gait speed decreased (p < 0.05) with age, as did W′ and CT. Both W′ and CT correlated positively with gait speed at different distances (10 m, 400 m, 6 MWT). Adjusted for maximum muscle torque, only W′ maintained a positive association (p < 0.05) with all gait speed tests (10 m: β = 0.201, SE = 0.086; 400 m: β = 0.262, SE = 0.085; 6 MWT: β = 0.187, SE = 0.086). Conclusions: aging led to declines in W′, CT, and gait speed. W′, not CT, remained a significant predictor of gait speed, indicating its importance for older women’s mobility.
背景:双曲扭矩-持续时间曲线描述了临界扭矩(CT)和W ' (W ')，曲线的渐近线代表CT作为重强度域和强强度域之间的边界。曲率常数W '表示超过CT的累积功。本研究调查了与年龄相关的W′、CT和步态速度的降低，以及W′和CT是否独立于肌肉扭矩预测步态速度。方法:对成人、中年、老年三组共131名女性进行研究。利用60次膝关节伸肌的最大等长自主收缩来测定W′和CT。在10 m, 400 m和6分钟(6 MWT)的步行测试中计算快速步态速度。结果:步态速度随年龄增长而降低(p < 0.05)， W′和CT值随年龄增长而降低。在不同距离(10 m、400 m、6 MWT)下，W′和CT均与步态速度呈正相关。调整最大肌扭矩后，只有W '与所有步速测试保持正相关(p < 0.05) (10 m: β = 0.201, SE = 0.086;400 m: β = 0.262, SE = 0.085;6 mwt: β = 0.187, se = 0.086)。结论:衰老导致W′、CT和步态速度下降。W′，而不是CT，仍然是步态速度的重要预测指标，这表明它对老年妇女的行动能力很重要。

The present study is the first research that analyzes the quality of life (QoL) of people affected by a dominant form of limb–girdle muscular dystrophy, specifically limb–girdle muscular dystrophy D2 (LGMD-D2). Additionally, clinical forms of the individual cases of the six affected patients are presented. This study also aims to explore the differences between patients’ reports and caregivers’ reports, and between LGMD-D2 and recessive forms of LGMD. The instruments used were as follows: sociodemographic data, GSGC, and INQoL instrument. The sample consisted of six people affected by LGMD-D2: three caregivers of three affected people, and three patients with recessive LGMD. They came from associations of affected people and a hospital in Padua. Those affected have multiple symptoms that lead to disability, which ultimately leads to dependence on the assistance. The present study shows that LGMD-D2 has a greater impact on activities of daily living, fatigue, muscle pain, and independence than other LGMD pathologies or other neuromuscular diseases. It also appears that age could influence QoL, and that muscle weakness is a very disabling symptom in this variant. In the current context of constantly developing research for new treatments, it is essential to analyze which aspects are most affected. Finally, caregivers can play an essential role in symptom reporting, as certain psychological adjustment mechanisms in the patient may be interfering with the objectivity of the report.
