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.

Mechanics of the abdominal muscles in rabbits and dogs
Respiration Physiology, 1994In anesthetized, apneic rabbits and dogs, direct tetanic stimulations of the abdominal muscles (AMS) were performed at different tracheal pressures (Ptr) in the supine and upright posture. Lung volume (V), esophageal (Pes) and abdominal pressure (Pab), circumference of the upper and lower lung apposed rib cage (Crc, u and Crc, l) and of the abdomen ...

Rectus Abdominal Muscles Pulled by Coughing
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1972To the Editor.— While practicing in Yuma, Ariz, I have seen two patients in the last six months who presented with pulled rectus abdominal muscle insertions over the symphysis pubis. Careful questioning of both patients revealed no history of trauma, but both patients had experienced antecedent, prolonged paroxysms of coughing.

Pediatrics, 1957
Opening the June Pediatrics, I noted another article reviewing the clinical and pathologic picture of absence of the abdominal muscles. As this particular review is so current and complete, it would seem repetitious for me to report the several cases I have had.

Experimental Brain Research, 1989
Our objective was to determine if caudal ventral respiratory group (VRG) expiratory (E) neurons that drive abdominal expiratory motoneurons in the lumbar cord respond to intercostal and lumbar nerve afferent stimulation. Results showed that 92% of medullary E-neurons that were antidromically activated from the upper lumbar cord reduced their activity ...

Electrical muscle stimulation for deep stabilizing muscles in abdominal wall
2008 30th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2008Low back pain is associated with dysfunction in recruitment of muscles in the lumbopelvic region. Effective rehabilitation requires preferential activation of deep stabilizing muscle groups. This study was carried out in order to quantify the response of deep stabilizing muscles (transverses abdominis) and superficial muscle in the abdominal wall ...

Testing procedures for abdominal muscles using the muscle dynamometer SD02
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine, 2009The aim of this study was to compare two tests both frequently used for determination of the state of the lumbar spine muscle system during static and dynamic loads. The sit-up test is a commonly used terrain test, while the diaphragm test is a more exact laboratory procedure. For both tests, measurements conducted by the muscular dynamometer SD02 were

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.

One of the main subjects of anatomy education is muscular system anatomy. Muscular system anatomy is the set of muscles that form the skeletal system in the human body and enable the body to move. In this section, the abdominal region extending between the diaphragm above and the pelvis below is discussed.
