Observational study reveals stature strongly predicts muscle strength in children, highlighting the clinical utility of predictive equations for neuromuscular evaluation.
This work shows that strength measurements using fixed dynamometry are reliable in children when using appropriate standardization of operating procedures. It underlines the particular relationship between body stature and muscle strength. Predictive equations may help with assessing the neuromuscular involvement in children suffering from various disorders, particularly those affecting their stature.
