“…One plausible explanation for these findings is that individuals with SCI who reported being overweight may have encountered greater limitations in accomplishing activities of daily living or community integration, therefore, becoming less satisfied with their life and experiencing more feelings of depression. 25 Indeed, increased adiposity has been shown to limit participation in activities of daily living in the able-bodied population. 30 In addition to examining community integration as a factor underlying the relationship between overweight status and SBW, other factors including pain and physical activity participation should be considered.…”

Study design: This is a cross-sectional study. Objectives: To examine the associations between adiposity, secondary complications and subjective well-being (SWB) in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). Results: Controlling for covariates, individuals who reported being overweight were more likely to have a history of overuse injuries and fatigue, experienced a greater impact of overuse injuries and fatigue, had greater pain and depressive symptoms, and had lower satisfaction with life than individuals who did not report being overweight. BMI was only associated with an increased likelihood of reporting spasticity. Conclusion: Self-reported overweight status was associated with an increased prevalence of certain secondary complications and lower SWB. Future prospective studies should examine whether reductions in adiposity are associated with changes in the prevalence and the impact of secondary complications and SWB.

Study design: Each participant completed two submaximal, perceptually guided arm crank exercise tests and a graded exercise test (GXT) to volitional exhaustion. Objective: To assess the validity of a submaximal, perceptually guided exercise test to predict peak oxygen uptake ( . VO 2 peak) during arm cranking in paraplegic individuals. Setting: University of Jordan, Amman, Jordan. Participants: Eleven men with paraplegia as a result of poliomyelitis infection or spinal cord injury completed two submaximal perceptually guided exercise tests and an arm crank GXT to volitional exhaustion. Main outcome measures: The prediction of .VO 2 peak was calculated by extrapolating the submaximal rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and .VO 2 values by linear regression to RPE20. Results: There were no significant differences between measured and predicted .VO 2 peak from the three submaximal ranges of the RPE (that is, 9-13, 9-15 and 9-17) when extrapolated to RPE20 during both perceptually guided exercise tests (all P40.05). However, the second perceptually guided exercise tests provided a more accurate prediction of .VO 2 peak as reflected by narrower 95% limits of agreement and higher intraclass correlation coefficients. Conclusion: This study has shown that .VO 2 peak may be predicted with reasonable accuracy from a perceptually guided exercise test, especially after a full familiarization trial.

“…Finally, they may exhibit depressive symptoms, and studies show that depressive disorders are highly prevalent in persons with SCI. [11][12][13][14] Persons with SCI may experience a wide range of activity limitations and participation restrictions. The typical spectrum of activity limitations and participation restriction relate to mobility such as transfers and locomotion, [15][16][17][18] self-care activities such as bathing, dressing and toileting, 19,20 difficulties in regaining work, maintaining social relationships, participating in leisure activities and being active members of the community.…”
