Combined Effects of Isokinetic Training and Botulinum Toxin Type A on Spastic Equinus Foot in Patients with Chronic Stroke: A Pilot, Single-blind, Randomized Controlled Trial

Toxins, 2019
Botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) has been shown effective for poststroke lower limb spasticity. Following injections, a wide range of multidisciplinary approach has been previously provided.

On Thermostats: Isokinetic or Hamiltonian? Finite or infinite? [PDF]

Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2009
The relation between finite isokinetic thermostats and infinite Hamiltonian thermostats is studied and their equivalence in the thermodynamic limit is heuristically discussed.

Somatosensory processing in long COVID fatigue and its relations with physiological and psychological factors

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We aimed to quantify somatosensory processing in long COVID and interactions between somatosensory processing, fatigability, fatigue, autonomic function, mood and illness beliefs. Eighty‐eight participants (44 long COVID and 44 controls) were invited to complete two testing sessions, where fatigue was induced by either a cognitive or a ...

Correlation Between Maximal Eccentric and Isometric Multi-Joint Lower-Extremity Strength and Vertical Jumping Performance in Young Adults

Muscles
Maximal eccentric (MES) and isometric (MIS) muscle strength may enhance vertical jump performance by facilitating preloading and reducing energy loss during the eccentric (ECC) phase of the stretch-shortening cycle (SSC).

Muscle- and Mode-Specific Responses of the Forearm Flexors to Fatiguing, Concentric Muscle Actions

Sports, 2016
Background: Electromyographic (EMG) and mechanomyographic (MMG) studies of fatigue have generally utilized maximal isometric or dynamic muscle actions, but sport- and work-related activities involve predominately submaximal movements.

Effects of cold water immersion versus active recovery on oxidative stress, redox gene expression and mitochondrial adaptations after strength training

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We compared the acute and chronic effects of postexercise cold water immersion (CWI) and active recovery (ACT) on oxidative stress, redox‐related gene expression, mitochondrial adaptations and muscle oxidative capacity. In a crossover study, nine males completed strength sessions, followed by either 10 min CWI or ACT.

An acute crossover trial of passive movement training with and without blood flow restriction to determine the impact on postprandial glycaemia

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract During glucose uptake into muscle, GLUT‐4 can translocate with stimulus from insulin or muscle contraction via exercise, but some exercise‐intolerant populations are unable to benefit from improved glycaemic control. We investigated how passive movement training (PMT) and passive movement training with blood flow restriction (PMT+BFR) could be

Antioxidant supplementation blunts the proteome response to 3 weeks of sprint interval training preferentially in human type 2 muscle fibres

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Sprint interval training (SIT) is a popular time‐efficient type of endurance training. Healthy young men performed nine SIT sessions (4–6 × 30 s all‐out cycling sprints) over 3 weeks while being supplemented with antioxidants (high doses of vitamins C and E) or placebo. Muscle biopsies taken before and after the first SIT session
