AI-Driven Smart Sportswear for Real-Time Fitness Monitoring Using Textile Strain Sensors [PDF]
Wearable biosensors have revolutionized human performance monitoring by enabling real-time assessment of physiological and biomechanical parameters. However, existing solutions lack the ability to simultaneously capture breath-force coordination and muscle activation symmetry in a seamless and non-invasive manner, limiting their applicability in ...

Spiny mice are primed but fail to regenerate volumetric skeletal muscle loss injuries
Background In recent years, the African spiny mouse Acomys cahirinus has been shown to regenerate a remarkable array of severe internal and external injuries in the absence of a fibrotic response, including the ability to regenerate full-thickness skin ...

Increased levels of interleukin-6 exacerbate the dystrophic phenotype in mdx mice [PDF]
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is characterized by progressive lethal muscle degeneration and chronic inflammatory response. The mdx mouse strain has served as the animal model for human DMD. However, while DMD patients undergo extensive necrosis, the

Slow Limb Movements Require Precise Control of Muscle Stiffness [PDF]
Slow and accurate finger and limb movements are essential to daily activities, but their neural control and governing mechanics are relatively unexplored. We consider neuromechanical systems where slow movements are produced by neural commands that modulate muscle stiffness.

Effects of acute fatigue on the volitional and magnetically-evoked electromechanical delay of the knee flexors in males and females [PDF]
Neuromuscular performance capabilities, including those measured by evoked responses, may be adversely affected by fatigue; however, the capability of the neuromuscular system to initiate muscle force rapidly under these circumstances is yet to be ...
