Leg size and muscle functions associated with leg compliance
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1988Leg compliance is "causally related with greater susceptibility" to orthostatic stress. Since peak O2 uptake (peak VO2) and muscle strength may be related to leg compliance, we examined the relationships between leg compliance and factors related to muscle size and physical fitness.

It is well known that both individual muscle and muscle groups produce maximum power against particular external loads. Within the present review, we propose the hypothesis that the lower-limb muscles of physically active individuals are predominantly designed to provide the maximum dynamic output (MDO; assessed as power and momentum) in rapid ...

Muscle Injuries of the Lower Leg
Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2010Muscle injuries of the lower leg are a common cause for time off from sports, and may also be a cause of disability in nonathletes who have a running or "pushing off" injury as part of their activities of daily living. Most injuries can be managed without imaging, but in selected cases advanced imaging techniques can demonstrate the exact site and ...

To the Editor.— In their brief article, "Nocturnal Leg Muscle Cramps," Israel H. Weiner, MD, and Henry L. Weiner gave a simple physiological explanation for ordinary cramps. They said that when a muscle starts to contract at its shortest length, it shortens "beyond physiological limit into a painful cramp." This occurs because there is "no resistance ...

The Cross-Leg Soleus Muscle Flap
Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2000Reconstruction of the lower limb can be a difficult problem, especially when located over the lower third of the leg, or when a large soft-tissue defect exists. When local flap coverage is not possible, a distant flap--free or pedicled--is indicated. There are, however, circumstances that preclude the use of a free flap, and in these situations cross ...

Leg muscle pH following sprint running
Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 1983In an effort to compare the disturbances in leg muscle pH during sprint running, muscle biopsies were obtained from the gastrocnemius and vastus lateralis muscles of six healthy men (three endurance-trained and three nonendurance-trained) before and after a treadmill sprint run (TSR) to fatigue (54-105 s) at roughly 125% of their aerobic capacities ...

NOCTURNAL leg muscle cramping (NLMC) is a frequent complaint heard by physicians in all specialties, from patients of all age groups, though probably most commonly in the elderly. Such muscle cramping usually involves the calf muscles (gastrocnemius or soleus) or the small intrinsic muscles of the sole of the foot.

Posterior Leg Pain: Understanding Soleus Muscle Injuries
RadioGraphics, 2022Soleus muscle injuries are frequently unrecognized, representing a common cause of sports inactivity. This is mainly because little is known about the anatomy of the soleus muscle and the clinical manifestations of injury. Unlike other muscles, the soleus muscle has a complex myoconnective structure with three intramuscular tendons, which makes the ...

Abstract Twelve patients with muscle hernias of the leg are presented. Three had large, solitary hernias of the tibialis anticus muscle, all due to direct trauma and two of which had symptoms severe enough to justify surgical repair which was successfully accomplished by fascial transplant.

Muscle Oxygen Saturation Heterogeneity Among Leg Muscles During Ramp Exercise
2012We examined whether O(2) saturation in several leg muscles changes as exercise intensity increases. Twelve healthy young males performed 20 W/min ramp bicycle exercise until exhaustion. Pulmonary O(2) uptake (VO(2)) was monitored continuously during the experiments to determine peak oxygen uptake.
