The aim of this study was to determine the difference between persons with a spinal cord injury involved in sports activities and those not involved in sports activities in relation to their quality of life and the presence of secondary health conditions (pressure ulcers, urinary infections, muscle spasms, osteoporosis, pain, kidney problems-infections, calculosis and poor circulation).MethodsThe study included a total of 44 participants with spinal cord injury-paraplegia of both genders; 26 of them were athletes and 18 were not athletes. The athletes were training actively for the last two years, minimally 2-3 times per week. A specially designed questionnaire, medical documentation and the Spinal Cord Injury Quality of Life Questionnaire (SCI QL-23) were used for research purposes. Chi-square test was used t...

The sample consisted of 25 male subjects, without any bodily or physical impairments. Respondents were not systematically engaged in any sport. Basic descriptive characteristics of the sample were: Age = 34.0±10.1 yrs, BH = 183.1±7.2 cm, BM = 88.1±12.1 kg, BMI = 26.37±4.21 kg/m2. Measurement of body composition was performed using bioelectrical impedance (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis - BIA), the latest generation of professional machine - In Body 720. The results showed a statistically significant difference between consecutive measurements of the model: Test 1 - standing position, Test 2 - standing position, and Test 3 - seated position and at the level of ...
