Regulation of isometric contraction in skeletal muscle
Experimental Neurology, 1976The purpose of this study was to determine whether differences in isometric twitch contraction times of skeletal muscles are related more closely to myosin adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity or to the ability of the sarcotubules to accumulate Ca2+.

Comments on ‘Assessment of Isometric Muscle Contractions’
Ergonomics, 1972The work of Rohmert on static work is briefly reviewed and the results he obtained are applied to data obtained by Lloyd et al. It is shown that the two approaches to static work are compatible.

The use of echocardiography to measure isometric contraction time
American Heart Journal, 1975The current methods for estimating isometric contraction time were discussed. Ultrasonically derived isometric contraction time, using external carotid pulse tracing, phonocardiogram, and the B-point of the mitral echogram was also measured. Recordings were performed in 10 normal subjects, and 15 patients.

The Influence of Competition on the Efficiency of an Isometric Muscle Contraction
Journal of Motor Behavior, 196936 male Ss from collegiate intramural athletic teams were asked to maintain 50% of their maximum voluntary contraction on an iso-metric handle as long as possible. Ss were divided into 2 groups. One group performed individually while the other group, in teams of 3 Ss each, competed for a team prize.

Effects of temperature on isometric contraction of rat muscle
American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1964The effects of temperature on the basic characteristics of isometric contraction were studied in the triceps surae of white albino rats. The influences of tetanic fusion and Wedensky inhibition on tension development were analyzed. The results showed linear increase of maximal isometric tetanic tension and increase in the rate of rise and fall of ...

Linear approximations of muscle mechanics in isometric contraction
Biological Cybernetics, 1977The isolated rat gastrocnemius was submitted to tetanic stimulation, with and without a spring in series with the muscle. The resulting isometric myograms allowed description of the properties of simple muscle models which contained linear and non-linear components.

Isometric contractions in the patellofemoral pain syndrome
Archives of Orthopaedic and Traumatic Surgery, 1986The role played by the vastus lateralis and vastus medialis obliquus in their alignment of the patella during maximal isometric quadriceps contractions was studied by electromyography in 28 patients with unilateral symptoms of the patellofemoral pain syndrome.

Perception of effort in isometric and dynamic muscular contraction
European Journal of Applied Physiology and Occupational Physiology, 1979The perception of muscular effort was studied using estimation and production methods in the adductor pollicis and quadriceps. A psychometric scale (percentage magnitude) was used. Static contractions were studied in the adductor pollicis, and both dynamic (isokinetic) and static contractions were studied in quadriceps. Linear and logarithmic equations

Energetics of isometric contraction in porcine carotid artery
American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology, 1984The rate of ATP utilization ( JATP ) and unloaded shortening velocity ( Vus ) of porcine carotid artery were studied during tension development and maintenance to assess the importance of mechanisms proposed to account for its high economy of tension maintenance. Previous work from our laboratory established that the rate of O2 consumption ( JO2 ) can
