| Description | To compare isokinetic strenght in oncological patients before and after medical treatment. There was a Gender x Time interaction for peak troque (eta2=0,32, 95% Cl: 0,13-0,82). The men (161,33-25,95 Nm) scored higher than the women (63,25-25,94 Nm) during the pre-test (d=3,78 (95% Cl: -25,58-24,54 Nm). They also scored higher at the post-test (153,33-26,99 Nm vs. 70,83-26,99 Nm, d=3,06, 95% Cl: -27,48-24,65 Nm). Isokinetic peak torque did not differ between the pre-and post-test in both men and women after medical treatment for leukemia. |
