Functional profile of the studied sample.

AssessmentPerformance

Gait speed (m/s)0.61
Gait speed (%predicted)76 ± 16
Handgrip force (kg)22 (18–28)
Handgrip force (%predicted)96 (82–126)
Sit-to-stand test (number of repetition)14 ± 5
Sit-to-stand test (%predicted)43 ± 15
Timed up and go (seconds)13.22 (12.10–18.56)
Timed up and go (%predicted)120 (110–169)

Values were described as mean ± standard deviation or median (interquartile range 25–75%); Shapiro–Wilk test was used to test normality and value >0.05 indicates normal distribution.
