Brief Summary

This study evaluates whether an increase in the ipsilateral knee flexor muscle strength transfers to the contralateral knee extensors which are not exposed to vibration, when unilateral-isolated whole body vibration (WBV) is applied to the lower extremity. In the half of volunteers the right leg were exposed vibration, while in the other half the right leg were exposed sham vibration. Muscle strength were measured with the Cybex® (Massachusetts, USA) extremity-testing system.

Conditions

Muscle Physiology

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Muscle strength gain of the untrained contralateral quadriceps muscle

  Untrained contralateral quadriceps muscle strength was measured with the Cybex extremity-testing system before and after trial. Unit of this parameter was Nm

  four months

Study Arms (2)

Experimental group

EXPERIMENTAL

Whole body vibration was applied on the right lower extremity.

Device: Whole body vibration

Sham group

SHAM COMPARATOR

Unlike the experimental group, sham vibration was applied to the control group.

Device: Sham vibration

Interventions

Whole body vibration DEVICE

Whole body vibration was applied on the right lower extremity in the experimental group.

Experimental group

Sham vibration DEVICE

Sham vibration was applied on the right lower extremity in the Control sham group

Study Design

• Study Type: interventional
• Phase: not applicable
• Allocation: RANDOMIZED
• Masking: TRIPLE
• Who Masked: PARTICIPANT, INVESTIGATOR, OUTCOMES ASSESSOR
• Masking Details: All of the participants were told that the vibration stimulation was performed for muscle strengthening. However, participants had no knowledge about the characteristics of the vibration used for muscle-strength enhancement. Vibration was applied in the experimental group, whereas sham vibration was applied in the Control group. The WBV exercise was performed at different days for the Control and Experimental groups to make them blind to each other's applications.All measurements were made by an independent assessor (isokinetic test laboratory assistant) blinded to the trial allocation.
