Fatigue biomarker index: An objective salivary measure of fatigue level

Accident Analysis & Prevention, 2012
Fatigue changed the composition of the small-molecular weight (sMW) proteome of saliva during a 10h session of moderate (70% of maximum ventilatory threshold) physical exertion. Saliva samples were collected from nine recreationally trained cyclists participating in a cross-over study designed to simulate prolonged manual labor, a military operation or

An electromyographic index for localized muscle fatigue

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1977
A new method for objective quantification of localized muscle fatigue is described. The method is based on power spectrum analysis of myoelectric signals obtained from the fatigued muscle. It permits real-time investigations and yields statistically based criteria for the occurrence of fatigue.

Creatinuria as a Possible Index to Radiation Fatigue

Radiology, 1960
Muscular fatigue is a common complaint in patients undergoing radiation therapy. In total-body irradiated animals in which extreme degrees of muscular weakness are observed, creatinuria appears to resemble in mechanism that found in muscle-wasting disorders, e.g., muscular dystrophy.
