Abstract
PURPOSE Physical inactivity in Indians is leading to an increase in noncommunicable disorders at an early age in life. Early identification and quantification of the lack of physical activity using simple and reliable exercise testing is the need of the hour. The incremental shuttle walk test (ISWT) is an externally paced walk test widely used for the evaluation of exercise capacity. Currently the normative values available for clinical reference are generated from Western populations. Hence, the study was conducted to find normative values for the ISWT in healthy Indian adults (17-75 years). MATERIALS AND METHODS A convenience sample of 862 subjects was recruited after ethical approval was obtained. All subjects were divided into groups as per age and gender. For age, the grouping was as follows: Group 1: Young adulthood (17-40 years), group 2: Middle adulthood (40-65 years), and group 3: Old adulthood (>65 years). The ISWT was performed as per standard protocol by Sally Singh. RESULTS The average distance walked were 709.2m,556.4m and 441.3m in females and 807.9 m, 639.6 m and 478.2 m in males in the three respective age groups. Stepwise regression analysis revealed age and gender as key variables correlating with incremental shuttle walk distance (ISWD). The derived predictive equations for males and females may be given as follows: 740.351 - (5.676 × age) + (99.007 × gender). CONCLUSION Reference values were generated for healthy Indian adults. Physiological response to the ISWT was shown to be affected by gender and increasing age. Easily measurable variables explained 68% of the variance seen in the test, making the reference equation a relevant part of the evaluation of the ISWT.

Abstract
Background: The incremental shuttle walk test (ISWT) was developed > 20 years ago and has been used to assess peak exercise capacity in a variety of chronic diseases. The aim of this systematic review is to describe the measurement properties of the ISWT in a clinical population.Methods: Of 800 articles identified by electronic and hand searches, 35 were included. Twenty-one articles included data on the validity of the ISWT, 18 on the reliability, four on the responsiveness,and four on the interpretability.Results: Most of the studies were conducted in patients with COPD (n = 13) or cardiac disease(n = 8). For criterion validity, comparisons between distance covered during the ISWT and peak oxygen consumption reported correlations ranging from 0.67 to 0.95 ( P <.01). Intraclass correlation coefficients for test-retest reliability ranged from 0.76 to 0.99. The ISWT was shown to be responsive to pulmonary rehabilitation and bronchodilator administration. The minimal clinically important difference (MCID) in patients with COPD was 48 m. Predictive equations for the distance in the ISWT are available for healthy individuals.Conclusions: The ISWT can be considered a valid and reliable test to assess maximal exercise capacity in individuals with chronic respiratory diseases. The ISWT has been shown to be responsive to pulmonary rehabilitation and bronchodilator use in individuals with COPD, cystic fibrosis,and asthma. Further studies examining responsiveness and the MCID of the ISWT in patients with conditions other than lung diseases are required for the interpretation of interventions in other populations.

Balance, Falls-Related Self-Efficacy, and Psychological Factors amongst Older Women with Chronic Low Back Pain: A Preliminary Case-Control Study. Rehabil Res Pract 2012; 2012:430374.

Abstract
Objective. To investigate balance functions in older women and evaluate the association of the fear-avoidance beliefs model (FABM) factors with balance and mobility performance. Participants. Fifteen older women with CLBP was compared with age-matched pain-free controls (n = 15). Main Outcome Measures. Pain intensity, falls-related self-efficacy and intrinsic constructs in the FABM were evaluated. Postural steadiness (centre of pressure (COP)) and mobility functions were assessed. Linear relationships of FABM variables with COP and mobility score were estimated. Results. CLBP showed lower mobility score compared to controls. CLBP presented lower falls-related self-efficacy and it was associated with reduced mobility scores. FABM variables and falls-related self-efficacy were correlated with postural steadiness. Physical activity was reduced in CLBP, but no between-group difference was evident for knee extensor strength. No systematic linkages were observed between FABM variables with mobility score or postural steadiness. Conclusions. Back pain status affects balance and mobility functions in older women. Falls-related self-efficacy is lower in CLBP and is associated with reduced mobility. Disuse syndrome in CLBP elderly is partly supported by the results of this preliminary study.

Abstract
This systematic review investigates the effectiveness of exercise interventions in improving disease-related characteristics in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It also provides suggestions for exercise programmes suitable for improving the cardiovascular profile of RA patients and proposes areas for future research in the field. Six databases (Medline, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Google Scholar, EMBASE and PEDro) were searched to identify publications from 1974 to December 2006 regarding RA and exercise interventions. The quality of the studies included was determined by using the Jadad scale. Initial searches identified 1342 articles from which 40 met the inclusion criteria. No studies were found investigating exercise interventions in relation to cardiovascular disease in RA. There is strong evidence suggesting that exercise from low to high intensity of various modes is effective in improving disease-related characteristics and functional ability in RA patients. Future studies are required to investigate the effects of exercise in improving the cardiovascular status of this patient population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To validate the 20-meter shuttle walking test (20MST) in the assessment of maximal oxygen consumption (VO(2)max) and maximal speed in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). DESIGN Single-sample validity study. SETTING Cardiac rehabilitation service in France. PARTICIPANTS Seventeen men with CAD. INTERVENTIONS Subjects underwent a symptom-limited treadmill test (SLTT) in a laboratory, with a speed starting at 2.5km/h and increasing by 0.5km/h every minute, and performed an adapted 20MST in a corridor, with a speed starting at 3km/h and increasing by 1km/h every minute until exhaustion. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES VO(2) measured during the 20MST with the Cosmed K2 telemetric gas analyzer (K2 VO(2)), estimated VO(2) calculated by the Léger equation (Léger VO(2)) from the maximal speed obtained during the 20MST, and VO(2) measured during the SLTT (SLTT VO(2)). Maximal speeds attained on the treadmill and on the 20MST were also compared. RESULTS A significant (P<.0001) difference was observed between the Léger estimate of VO(2) and those of K2 VO(2) and SLTT VO(2) (mean +/- standard deviation, 12.28+/-5.90mL. min(-1).kg(-1) vs 23.04+/-7.17 and 22.56+/-6.29mL.min(-1).kg(-1)). No difference was found between the treadmill and the 20MST maximal speeds (6.73+/-0.91km/h, 6.78+/-1.23km/h, respectively). Measured with the Cosmed K2, a significant relationship existed between VO(2) and each speed level (r=.95, P<.0001; VO(2)=4.24x speed-7.37, standard estimation error=2.29mL.min(-1).kg(-1)). CONCLUSION Maximal VO(2) and maximal speed measured on the treadmill did not differ significantly from those obtained on the 20MST. The current 20MST equation (Léger equation) was not valid to estimate VO(2) in CAD patients. A modified prediction equation of VO(2) was given and would need a larger number of patients to be generalized.
