Abstract

Summary. The mean isometric strength of the stronger quadriceps muscles of 12 healthy men in their seventies was 39% less than that of 12 healthy men in their twenties (P < 0–001). The cross‐sectional area of the quadriceps was measured at mid‐thigh, by ultrasound scanning; the older men's stronger quadriceps were 25% smaller (P < 0–001). The ratio of the stronger quadriceps' strength to its cross‐sectional area was very similar in the old men to values obtained previously for both old and young women, but averaged 19% less than in the young men (P < 0–02). Quadriceps size and strength were correlated in the old men (P= 0–77, P= 0–03) but not in the young men (r= 0.15). The principal axis of the relationship between quadriceps size and strength in the old men was very similar to those previously reported for both old and young women. The quadriceps strength of some young men is greater than would be expected from the size of the muscle.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
