Isometric training at longer muscle–tendon complex lengths: A potential countermeasure to impaired neuro‐muscle–tendon function during space travel

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Manned space exploration to distant destinations, including Mars, continues to be an aspiration of humankind. Space travel does, however, present many challenges to the body, amongst which adaptation to microgravity is perhaps the largest. For instance, both short and long manned spaceflight missions have shown substantial deleterious effects ...

Impact of heat exposure during immobilization‐induced de‐training and re‐training on aerobic capacity and haemoglobin mass

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this work was to assess the effect of heat exposure on cardiorespiratory and haematological responses during de‐training and re‐training. Nineteen men (33.8 ± 2.7 years; 182 ± 5.7 cm, 84.4 ± 9.3 kg) completed 4 weeks of pre‐training followed by heat exposure (HEAT; n = 9) or control (CON; n = 10).

Kidney disease impairs tendon function in rats

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This study demonstrates for the first time that tendon strength is reduced in a rodent model of chronic kidney disease (8 weeks of 0.25% adenine feeding) and confirms concurrent dysfunction in muscle and bone. These findings provide novel characterization of multiple tissues, paving the way for future investigations into the ...

Modeling, Evaluation, and In Vivo Estimation of Muscle Cell Diameter With the Random Permeable Barrier Model: Correlation With Subject Characteristics and Isometric Torque

open access: yesNMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 3, March 2026.
We evaluated the random permeable barrier model (RPBM) through simulations, model fitting, and in vivo analysis of 100 healthy adults. Simulations showed that stable estimates of muscle cell diameter and membrane permeability require constraining τ and fixing D0 at ~0.9 of axial diffusivity at long diffusion times.

Physiotherapy‐Led Rehabilitation of Foot Drop Following Lower Limb Gunshot Injury

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Gunshot injury (GSI) severely damages muscles and the nervous system, requiring long‐term treatment and rehabilitation. This case report highlights the effectiveness of physiotherapy‐led rehabilitation in a patient with lower limb injury and foot drop. After emergency treatment, the patient was diagnosed with common peroneal nerve injury (CPNI)

Immediate Effects of Abdominal Hypopressive Technique Versus PNF Stretching in Shortened Hamstring Syndrome: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiother Res Int
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Short Hamstring Syndrome (SHS) is described as a deficit of extensibility of this musculature. In contrast to Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF), which is widely used in these cases, the abdominal hypopressive technique (AHT) is presented as a possible method to improve flexibility.
