Physical activity, functional capacity, and step variability during walking in people with lower-limb amputation.

Physical activity is important for general health. For an individual with amputation to sustain physical activity, certain functional capacity might be needed. Gait variability is related to the incidence of falls.

Inspiratory muscle training in patients with heart failure: a systematic review.
