Abstract Background Physical fitness and motor ability are associated with the incidence of locomotive syndrome (LS) in older adults. The relationships between physical fitness and motor ability at a young age to LS risk in later life remain unclear. This study examined the association between physical fitness and motor ability among university students and their risk of LS in middle and old age. Methods The participants were 231 male alumni aged 48–65 years from the Department of Physical Education of a university in Japan. Physical fitness and motor ability test results during their fourth year at the university were used. Physical fitness tests included the side-step test, vertical jump test, back muscle, grip strength, trunk lift, standing trunk flexion, and step-test. Motor ability was tested using the 50-m and 1500-m run, running long jump, hand-ball throw, and pull-up test. LS risk was assessed using a seven-question standardized self-administered Loco-check questionnaire. Participants were divided into three groups (low, medium, and high) based on physical fitness and motor ability test results at young age, and LS risk was assessed at an older age across the three groups using Cox proportional hazards models. Results From the 2017 follow-up survey, the median follow-up period was 37 years (interquartile range, 33–41), and LS risk was suspected for 31 (13.4%) participants. Better performance on the side-step test was associated with the reduced risk of LS (hazard ratio 0.32; 95% confidence interval, 0.101–0.983, P = 0.047). Conclusions Good agility (side-step test) at a young age may reduce the future risk of LS among middle-aged and older men.

Permainan sepak takraw merupakan permainan tradisional yang memadukan dua permainan sepak bola dengan bola voli dipertandingkan di lapangan yang ukurannya menyerupai ukuran lapangan bulu tangkis permainan ganda. Permainan sepak takraw sudah menjadi permainan yang digemari baik dikalangan masyarakat umum dan pelajar Dalam bermain sepak takraw diperlukan beberapa teknik dasar. Salah satunnya adalah teknik dasar smash silang. Akan tetapi, mahasiswa Putra Jurusan Penjaskesrek FOK Undiksha dalam melakukan smash silang masih kurang maksimal.  Sementara itu, untuk bisa menjadi seorang pemain sepak takraw yang baik, mereka juga harus memiliki tingkat kemampuan motorik yang tinggi. Penelitian ini dirancang untuk menginvestigasi pengaruh strategi pembelajaran  dan kemampuan motorik terhadap keterampilan smash silang dalam permainan sepak takraw pada mahasiswa putra Jurusan Penjaskesrek FOK Undiksha. Jenis penelitian ini adalah eksperimen lapangan, ini didasarkan pada variabel serta tujuan yang ingin dicapai dalam penelitian. Desain yang dipergunakan adalah faktorial 2 x 2. Dengan teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan proporsional random sampling. Tes yang digunakan adalah Instrumen  Barrow Motor Ability Test dan tes keterampilan dasar sepak takraw. Penelitian menyimpulkan: 1) Ada perbedaan antara  strategi pembelajaran driil dan  strategi bermain  terhadap keterampilan smash silang dalam permainan sepak takraw, 2) Ada perbedaan keterampilan smash silang dalam permainan  sepak takraw antara yang memiliki kemampuan motorik tinggi dan rendah, 3) Ada pengaruh interaksi antara strategi pembelajaran dan kemampuan motorik terhadap keterampilan smash dalam permainan  sepak takraw.

Objective. Persons with stroke frequently suffer from cognitive impairment. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), a recently developed screening tool, is sensitive to poststroke cognitive deficits. The present study assessed its psychometric and clinimetric properties (i.e., responsiveness, minimal clinically important difference (MCID), and criterion validity) in stroke survivors receiving rehabilitative therapy. Method. The MoCA and the Stroke Impact Scale (SIS) were administered to 65 stroke survivors before and after 4 to 5 weeks of therapy. The effect size and standardized response mean (SRM) were calculated for responsiveness. Anchor- and distribution-based methods were used to estimate the MCID. Criterion validity was measured with the Spearman correlation coefficient. Results. The responsiveness of the MoCA was moderate (SRM=0.67). Participants exceeding the MCID according to the anchor- and distribution-based approaches were 33 (50.77%) and 20 (30.77%), respectively. Fair to good concurrent validity was reported between the MoCA and the SIS communication subscale. The MoCA had satisfactory predictive validity with the SIS communication and memory subscales. Conclusion. This study may support the responsiveness, MCID, and criterion validity of the MoCA in stroke populations. Future studies with larger sample sizes are needed to validate the current findings.
