• Hand Grip Strength: age and gender stratified normative data in a population-based study (2011, background): “Analysis of grip strength by gender shows higher grip by males at all ages, and analysis by age group demonstrates a peak of grip strength in the fourth decade and then a gradual decline in grip strength for both genders [4-7].”
• Grip Strength across the Life Course: Normative Data from Twelve British Studies (2014, unknown): “Three of these [12, 36, 37] showed agreement with our results, with average differences of around 6%.”
• Acquired weakness, handgrip strength, and mortality in critically ill patients. (2008, methodology): “Immediately after the MRC exam, the same examiner would ask subjects to perform dominant hand dynamometry (Jamar handgrip dynamometer; Sammons Preston Rolyan, Bolingbrook, IL) three times (27, 28).”
