The Influence of Maturity Status on Muscle Architecture in School-Aged Boys [PDF]

open access: yesPediatric Exercise Science, 2020
Purpose: To determine the differences in muscle architecture of the lower limb in pre-peak height velocity (PHV), circa-PHV, and post-PHV boys. Method: Muscle architecture variables from both the gastrocnemius medialis (GM) and vastus lateralis (VL) were

Simple Muscle Architecture Analysis (SMA): an ImageJ macro tool to automate measurements in B-mode ultrasound scans [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
In vivo measurements of muscle architecture (i.e. the spatial arrangement of muscle fascicles) are routinely included in research and clinical settings to monitor muscle structure, function and plasticity.

Triceps Surae Muscle Architecture Adaptations to Eccentric Training

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
BackgroundEccentric exercises have been used in physical training, injury prevention, and rehabilitation programs. The systematic use of eccentric training promotes specific morphological adaptations on skeletal muscles.

Age‐related alterations in muscle architecture are a signature of sarcopenia: the ultrasound sarcopenia index [PDF]

open access: goldJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2021
The assessment of muscle mass is a key determinant of the diagnosis of sarcopenia. We introduce for the first time an ultrasound imaging method for diagnosing sarcopenia based on changes in muscle geometric proportions.

From fibre to function: are we accurately representing muscle architecture and performance? [PDF]

open access: yesBiol Rev Camb Philos Soc, 2022
The size and arrangement of fibres play a determinate role in the kinetic and energetic performance of muscles. Extrapolations between fibre architecture and performance underpin our understanding of how muscles function and how they are adapted to power

Effects of Plyometric Training on Lower Body Muscle Architecture, Tendon Structure, Stiffness and Physical Performance: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

open access: yesSports Medicine - Open, 2022
Background Plyometric training (PT) has been widely studied in sport science. However, there is no review that determines the impact of PT on the structural variables and mechanical properties of the lower limbs and physical performance.

Muscle architecture, growth, and biological Remodelling in cerebral palsy: a narrative review

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2022
Cerebral palsy (CP) is caused by a static lesion to the brain occurring in utero or up to the first 2 years of life; it often manifests as musculoskeletal impairments and movement disorders including spasticity and contractures. Variable manifestation of

A Roadmap to Reconstructing Muscle Architecture from CT Data.

open access: yesIntegrative Organismal Biology, 2022
Skeletal muscle is responsible for voluntary force generation across animals, and muscle architecture largely determines the parameters of mechanical output. The ability to analyze muscle performance through muscle architecture is thus a key step towards

Resistance Exercise in People With Stage-3 Chronic Kidney Disease: Effects of Training Frequency (Weekly Volume) on Measures of Muscle Wasting and Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Background: Resistance training (RT) is a proven anabolic intervention in people living with and without chronic kidney disease (CKD). To date, there is a dearth of knowledge regarding the dose-response relationship of RT in the non-dialysis dependent ...
