Segmentation of Shoulder Muscle MRI Using a New Region and Edge based Deep Auto-Encoder [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Automatic segmentation of shoulder muscle MRI is challenging due to the high variation in muscle size, shape, texture, and spatial position of tears. Manual segmentation of tear and muscle portion is hard, time-consuming, and subjective to pathological expertise.

Dynamic muscle quality of the plantar flexors is impaired in claudicant patients with peripheral arterial disease and associated with poorer walking endurance [PDF]
, 2015 Objective Peripheral arterial disease and intermittent claudication (PAD-IC) negatively affects physical activity and function. There is evidence for plantarflexor muscle dysfunction and weakness; however, the extent to which this dysfunction can be ...

Skeletal Muscle Size, Function, and Adiposity with Lifelong Aerobic Exercise.
Journal of applied physiology, 2019 We examined the influence of lifelong aerobic exercise on skeletal muscle size, function, and adiposity. Young exercisers (YE; n=20, 10W, 25±1y), lifelong exercisers (LLE; n=28, 7W, 74±2y), and old-healthy non-exercisers (OH; n=20, 10W, 75±1y) were ...

Weekly Versus Monthly Testosterone Administration On Fast and Slow Skeletal Muscle Fibers in Older Adult Males [PDF]
, 2014 Context: In older adults, loss of mobility due to sarcopenia is exacerbated in men with low serum T. T replacement therapy is known to increase muscle mass and strength, but the effect of weekly (WK) vs monthly (MO) administration on specific fiber types

A transient inflammatory response contributes to oxaliplatin neurotoxicity in mice
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1985-1998, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Objectives Peripheral neuropathy is a relevant dose‐limiting adverse event that can affect up to 90% of oncologic patients with colorectal cancer receiving oxaliplatin treatment. The severity of neurotoxicity often leads to dose reduction or even premature cessation of chemotherapy.
