Comparison of selected muscular activity of trunk and lower extremities in young women's walking on supinated, pronated and normal foot [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
  Changes in anatomical structure of the foot reduce the foot ability for normal performance. This study aimed to compare selected muscles of trunk and lower extremities during walking in individuals with different foot types.

Activity Pattern of the Erector Spinae Muscles During Two Lumbar Strengthening Exercises

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Human Movement, 2010
The flexion-relaxation-phenomenon is the specific response of the erector spinae muscles, in free-pain subjects, during forward bending from upright standing.

The lumbar multifidus is characterised by larger type I muscle fibres compared to the erector spinae

open access: yesAnatomy & Cell Biology, 2020
The metabolic capacity of a muscle is one of the determinants of muscle function. Muscle fiber type characteristics give an indication about this metabolic capacity.

MyotonPRO Is Not Comparable to Shear Wave Elastography in the Measurement of Rectus Femoris Muscle Stiffness due to Interference of Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Tissue biomechanical properties are important for optimizing musculoskeletal performance and reducing injury risk. The MyotonPRO was developed as a simple, portable, noninvasive, and highly reliable method for the estimation of muscle stiffness.

Mechanical Load‐Induced Upregulation of Talin2 through Non‐Canonical Deubiquitination of OTUB1 Drives Facet Joint Osteoarthritis Pathogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 25, July 3, 2025.
Facet joint osteoarthritis (FJOA), prevalent in the elderly, involves Talin2 upregulation promoting ECM degradation while suppressing synthesis. Mechanical load stabilizes Talin2 via OTUB1‐mediated non‐canonical deubiquitination, driving CCL2 expression that recruits immune cells, exacerbating inflammatory joint degeneration.

High erector spinae endurance reduced low back pain in postmenopausal women

open access: yesUniversa Medicina, 2016
Low back pain (LBP) is the most frequent health problem in all age groups, including postmenopausal women, who are at risk of disability, due to degenerative processes affecting all organ systems, including the erector spinae muscles.

Reference Values for Water‐Specific T1, Intermuscular and Intramuscular Fat Content in Skeletal Muscle at 2.89 T

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 62, Issue 1, Page 146-159, July 2025.
Background MRI offers quantification of proton density fat fraction (PDFF) and tissue characteristics with T1 mapping. The influence of age, sex, and the potential confounding effects of fat on T1 values in skeletal muscle in healthy adults are insufficiently known.

Muscle elasticity variations in assessing age‐related changes in adults – A systematic review

open access: yesGeriatrics &Gerontology International, Volume 25, Issue 7, Page 855-863, July 2025.
This systematic review suggests that muscle stiffness, measured by shear wave elastography, tends to decrease or remain unchanged with age in a relaxed state, to increase during passive stretching, and to decrease with contraction. These findings provide valuable insights into age‐related variations in muscle stiffness.
