Muscle conditioning and muscle injuries

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 1990
Empirical and objective data suggest that muscle and connective tissue can undergo adaptations to physical training resulting in greater tissue mass and increased maximum tensile strength. These adaptations are especially apparent as a result of load bearing and resistive training.

MUSCLE ACTIVITY and MUSCLE PROTEINS

Biological Reviews, 1950
Summary1. If it were experimentally possible to examine muscle extracts made during defined phases of the contraction cycle, the relation of muscular work to changes in the composition of such extracts might then be elucidated. The changes of normal muscle proteins in relation to muscular function, could then be considered from a truly physiological ...

Muscle–nerve–muscle neurotization for the reinnervation of denervated somatic muscle

Neurological Research, 2004
Muscle-Nerve-Muscle (MNM) is the reinnervation of a denervated (recipient) muscle via a nerve graft inserted into the belly of an innervated (donor) muscle. MNM is studied for the reinnervation of intrinsic denervated somatic skeletal muscle by evaluating both restored muscle contractile ability and innervation state. In a rat model, muscle function is

Muscle shape consistency and muscle volume prediction of thigh muscles

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 2014
The present study investigated the applicability of a muscle volume prediction method using only the muscle length (LM), the maximum anatomical cross‐sectional area (ACSAmax), and a muscle‐specific shape factor (p) on the quadriceps vastii. LM, ACSAmax, muscle volume, and p were obtained from magnetic resonance images of the vastus intermedius (VI ...

Muscle Injuries

2007
Abstract: Muscle damage is related to indirect/elongation mechanism, direct impact or dysfunction of the supporting connective tissue and is common in athletes. Muscle trauma can lead to changes that may be observed on US and MRI. MRI or US grading of muscle injury can be performed.

Muscle damage is not a function of muscle force but active muscle strain

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1993
Contractile properties of rabbit tibialis anterior muscles were measured after eccentric contraction to investigate the mechanism of muscle injury. In the first experiment, two groups of muscles were strained 25% of the muscle fiber length at identical rates.

Muscle Filament Structure and Muscle Contraction

Annual Review of Biophysics and Bioengineering, 1975
Research into the mechanism of muscle contraction has reached a very intriguing stage. It now seems likely that all types of muscle may operate in basically the same way. But despite the present detailed knowledge of the molecular arrangements in certain muscles, the precise way in which a muscle generates force is still a mystery. According to the now

Diseases of Muscle and the Muscle End-Plate

1977
Muscles are subject to a wide range of inherited, degenerative, metabolic and toxic disorders. There is a marked similarity to peripheral nerve disease in that a wide range of disorders produce a limited group of symptoms and signs. Differential diagnosis depends on a careful family history, careful documentation of the extent and distribution of the ...

MUSCLE CHANNELOPATHIES

CONTINUUM: Lifelong Learning in Neurology, 2006
In recent years the term CHANNELOPATHY has been adopted to describe neurological disorders caused by mutations in different ion channel genes. Myopathic channelopathies include two main groups: nondystrophic myotonias and periodic paralyses. This article reviews the clinical features, diagnostic approach, molecular causes, and management of patients ...
