Influence of 4 weeks of downhill running on calcium sensitivity of rat single muscle fibers

Physiological Reports, 2022
Improved Ca2+ sensitivity has been suggested as a mechanism behind enhancements in muscle mechanical function following eccentric training. However, little is known regarding the effects of eccentric training on single muscle fiber Ca2+ sensitivity ...

Comparison of Acute Level of CK After Five Weeks Eccentric vs Concentric High Intensity Strength Exercise in Healthy Subject

Surabaya Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Journal, 2019
Background: Musculoskeletal injuries both in sport and recreational activities, at each age level, can lead to immobilization. Injury and immobilization can lead to muscle strength decrease and deconditioning.

Detecting gravitational waves from highly eccentric compact binaries [PDF]

, 2014
In dense stellar regions, highly eccentric binaries of black holes and neutron stars can form through various n-body interactions. Such a binary could emit a significant fraction of its binding energy in a sequence of largely isolated gravitational wave ...
