Gastrocnemius Medialis Architectural Properties in Flexibility Trained and Not Trained Child Female Athletes: A Pilot Study

Sports, 2020
Gastrocnemius medialis (GM) architecture and ankle angle were compared between flexibility trained (n = 10) and not trained (n = 6) female athletes, aged 8−10 years.

In vivo assessment of muscle fascicle length by extended field-of-view ultrasonography

Journal of Applied Physiology, 2010
The present study examined the reliability and validity of in vivo vastus lateralis (VL) fascicle length ( Lf) assessment by extended field-of-view ultrasonography (EFOV US). Intraexperimenter and intersession reliability of EFOV US were tested. Further, Lf measured from EFOV US images were compared to Lf measured from static US images (6-cm FOV ...

Primary neurons that express the L2/HNK-1 carbohydrate during early development in the zebrafish [PDF]

, 1990
In zebrafish, many nerve pathways in both the CNS and periphery are pioneered by a small and relatively simple set of ‘primary’ neurons that arise in the early embryo.

A retrospective comparison of the biceps femoris long head muscle structure in athletes with and without hamstring strain injury history.

PLoS ONE
IntroductionHamstring strain injuries (HSI) and re-injuries are endemic in high-speed running sports. The biceps femoris long head (BFlh) is the most frequently injured muscle among the hamstrings. Structural parameters of the hamstring muscle are stated

Muscle architecture of the medial gastrocnemius during growth

Journal of Physiological Anthropology
Background Muscle architecture is closely related to muscle function. Increased knowledge of growth changes in muscle architecture will provide insights into the development of human movements and sports performance during the growth period.
