Mitochondrial respiration and characteristics of skeletal muscles in children with cerebral palsy
Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.Skeletal muscles utilize numerous mitochondria for energy production needed during muscle contraction. Mitochondria produce this energy through the electron transport chain. After an injury such as ACL‐injury in typically developing children, there is a reduction in muscle mitochondrial respiration and content.

Quantitative MRI changes in neck muscle size and composition following long‐duration spaceflight
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight poses several challenges to human health, including muscle loss and fat deposition. To mitigate these effects, exercise countermeasures are prescribed. This study aimed to measure neck muscle size and composition changes with long‐duration spaceflight using quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and examine ...
