Intra-abdominal pressure and trunk muscle activity during lifting. IV. The causal factors of the intra-abdominal pressure rise.

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine, 2020
The intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) has been regarded as important for stabilization and relief of the lumbar spine when exposed to heavy loads, such as when lifting.

Muscle Function and Fatigability of Trunk Flexors in Males and Females [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background Optimal function of the abdominal muscles is necessary for several life functions including lifting and carrying tasks. Sex differences in strength and fatigability are established for many limb muscles and back extensor muscles, but it is ...

Exposure to waterborne cadmium induce disorder of lipid metabolism, antioxidant system and autophagy in the muscle of crayfish Procambarus clarkii

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2023
Cadmium (Cd) is a non-essential toxic metal in the body, which can cause harmful effects on the aquatic environment and aquatic organisms. In this study, the effects of acute Cd exposure on lipid metabolism disorder, oxidative stress and autophagy in ...

Genetic screen in Drosophila muscle identifies autophagy-mediated T-tubule remodeling and a Rab2 role in autophagy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Transverse (T)-tubules make-up a specialized network of tubulated muscle cell membranes involved in excitation-contraction coupling for power of contraction. Little is known about how T-tubules maintain highly organized structures and contacts throughout

Abdominal functional electrical stimulation to improve respiratory function after spinal cord injury: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objectives: Abdominal functional electrical stimulation (abdominal FES) is the application of a train of electrical pulses to the abdominal muscles, causing them to contract. Abdominal FES has been used as a neuroprosthesis to acutely augment respiratory

Hypogravity reduces trunk admittance and lumbar muscle activation in response to external perturbations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Reduced paraspinal muscle size and flattening of spinal curvatures have been documented after spaceflight. Assessment of trunk adaptations to hypogravity can contribute to develop specific countermeasures.

Effect of diaphragm and abdominal muscle training on pelvic floor strength and endurance: results of a prospective randomized trial

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Pelvic floor muscles (PFMs) play a crucial role in urinary continence. Therefore, training the PFMs remains the most popular conservative treatment for urinary incontinence (UI). The effect of training other body muscles on the PFMs is unclear and mostly
