Insomnia impairs muscle function via regulating protein degradation and muscle clock [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Background: Insomnia makes people more physically unable of doing daily duties, which results in a lack of strength, leads to lacking in strength. However, the effects of insomnia on muscle function have not yet been thoroughly investigated. So, the objectives of this study were to clarify how insomnia contributes to the decrease of muscular function ...

Neural self-organization for muscle-driven robots [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We present self-organizing control principles for simulated robots actuated by synthetic muscles. Muscles correspond to linear motors exerting force only when contracting, but not when expanding, with joints being actuated by pairs of antagonistic muscles.

Design, synthesis, computational and biological evaluation of new benzodiazepines as CNS agents
Arabian Journal of Chemistry, 2020 Two series of new benzodiazepines were synthesized and the target compounds (E1-10 and G1-10) were evaluated for antianxiety and skeletal muscle relaxant activity as CNS agents in albino mice.

Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring and Neuromuscular Anesthesia Depth Monitoring
Korean Journal of Clinical Laboratory Science, 2020 Deep blocking of consciousness alone does not prevent a reaction to severe stimuli, and copious amounts of pain medication do not guarantee unconsciousness.

Passive Cervical Spine Ligaments Provide Stability during Head Impacts in Vivo [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 It has long been suggested that neck muscle strength and anticipatory cocontraction can decrease head motions during head impacts. Here, we quantify the relative angular impulse contributions of neck soft tissue to head stabilization using a musculoskeletal model with Hill-type muscles and rate-dependent ligaments.

Adaptive Compliance Shaping with Human Impedance Estimation [PDF]
, 2019 Human impedance parameters play an integral role in the dynamics of strength amplification exoskeletons. Many methods are used to estimate the stiffness of human muscles, but few are used to improve the performance of strength amplification controllers for these devices. We propose a compliance shaping amplification controller incorporating an accurate
