Correlation between Abdominal Rectus Diastasis Width and Abdominal Muscle Strength
Digestive Surgery, 2015<b><i>Background:</i></b> Surgery for Abdominal Rectus Diastasis (ARD) is a controversial topic and some argue that it is solely an aesthetic problem. Many symptoms in these patients are indefinite, and no objective criteria have been established, indicating which patients are likely to benefit from surgery.

Postoperative Abdominal Muscle Spasm
Archives of Surgery, 1957Every laparotomy is followed by several days of discomfort, but postoperative pain varies greatly among patients. Such discomfort may include (1) ordinary abdominal wall pain due to cutting and retraction of nerves and muscles; (2) distention of the gastrointestinal tract because of ileus, an almost invariable accompaniment of intraabdominal surgery ...

Muscle relaxation during abdominal surgery
The American Journal of Surgery, 1980A self-retaining surgical retractor has been modified by incorporating a strain gauge device linked to a digital display meter. This instrument is capable of continuously monitoring abdominal wall relaxation during surgery and should prove useful in a variety of routine and investigative procedures.

Progress in Neurobiology, 1998
Abdominal muscles serve many roles; in addition to breathing, especially at higher levels of chemical drive or at increased end-expiratory lung volumes, they are responsible for, or contribute to, such protective reflexes as cough, sneeze, and vomiting, generate the high intra-abdominal pressures necessary for defecation and parturition, are active ...

Fibre types in human abdominal muscles
Acta Physiologica Scandinavica, 1979Histochemical muscle fibre composition was studied in biopsies from the four different muscles of the abdominal wall (rectus abdominis, RA, obliquus externus, OE, obliquus internus, OI, and transversus abdominis, Tr) in 13 normal human subjects (9 females and 4 males, age 24–55 years) undergoing gall‐bladder surgery.
