Primary abdominal muscle lymphoma [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2013
Primary skeletal muscle lymphoma accounts for <1% of all lymphomas; a fraction of these arise within the abdominal muscles. Here, we describe the case of an 84-year-old woman who presented with multiple painful abdominal masses that proved to be diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and we discuss the main features of the disease.

Thickness of Rectus Abdominis Muscle and Abdominal Subcutaneous Fat Tissue in Adult Women: Correlation with Age, Pregnancy, Laparotomy, and Body Mass Index [PDF]

Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2012
BackgroundRectus abdominis muscle and abdominal subcutaneous fat tissue are useful for reconstruction of the chest wall, and abdominal, vaginal, and perianal defects. Thus, preoperative evaluation of rectus abdominis muscle and abdominal subcutaneous fat

The fully engaged inspiratory muscle training reduces postoperative pulmonary complications rate and increased respiratory muscle function in patients with upper abdominal surgery: a randomized controlled trial

Annals of Medicine, 2022
Background Upper abdominal surgical treatment may reduce respiratory muscle function and mucociliary clearance, which might be a cause of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs).

The impact of sarcopenia and acute muscle mass loss on long‐term outcomes in critically ill patients with intra‐abdominal sepsis

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2021
Sarcopenia is a known risk factor for poor outcomes across many chronic diseases. The impact on outcomes of both pre‐existing sarcopenia and acute muscle wasting (AMW) in acute critical illness caused by sepsis remain unclear.

Intra-abdominal pressure and trunk muscle activity during lifting. III. Effect of abdominal muscle training in chronic low-back patients.

Scandinavian Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine, 2020
Isometric training of the abdominal muscles is often recommended in programs of primary or secondary prevention for low-back pain. In this study 20 male workers with 2-18 years' history (average 5 1/2 years) of low-back pain without sciatica went through

HDAC9 is implicated in atherosclerotic aortic calcification and affects vascular smooth muscle cell phenotype. [PDF]

, 2019
Aortic calcification is an important independent predictor of future cardiovascular events. We performed a genome-wide association meta-analysis to determine SNPs associated with the extent of abdominal aortic calcification (n = 9,417) or descending ...

Abdominal muscle segmentation from CT using a convolutional neural network

Biomedical Applications in Molecular, Structural, and Functional Imaging, 2020
CT is widely used for diagnosis and treatment of a variety of diseases, including characterization of muscle loss. In many cases, changes in muscle mass, particularly abdominal muscle, indicate how well a patient is responding to treatment.
