Muscle infarction involving muscles of abdominal and thoracic walls in diabetes
Diabetic Medicine, 2005AbstractAims This paper presents two cases of muscle infarction involving four major muscles of the anterior abdominal wall (case 1) and pectoralis major (case 2) in individuals with diabetes.Methods Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and creatine kinase (CK) were measured and Doppler ultrasound, an open muscle biopsy (case 1) and magnetic ...

Relative efficiency of abdominal muscles in spine stability
Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 2008Using an iterative kinematics-driven nonlinear finite element model, relative efficiency of individual abdominal muscles in spinal stability in upright standing posture was investigated. Effect of load height on stability and muscle activities was also computed under different coactivity levels in abdominal muscles.

Validation of an Abdominal Muscle Strength Test With Dynamometry
The Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2005Adequate abdominal strength prevents work- and sports-related injuries and stabilizes the spine for athletic activities. The double-leg-lowering maneuver (DLLM) is a popular test to assess abdominal strength because of its simplicity; however, its validity and reliability have not been studied thoroughly.

Proprioception of abdominal muscles during respiration
Neuroscience Translations, 19681. Deafferentation of the thoracic segments of the spinal cord causes a decrease in electrical activity of the abdominal muscles. A definite decrease in activity is observed after deafferentation of five segments. The increase in respiratory activity of the abdominal muscles which follows increased resistance to expiration is diminished or ...
