Chronic changes in muscle architecture and aponeurosis structure following calf muscle strain injuries [PDF]

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 2023
AbstractBackgroundMuscle strain injuries in the human calf muscles are frequent sports injuries with high recurrence. Potential structural and functional changes in the medial head of the musculus gastrocnemius (GM) and the associated aponeurosis are not well documented.PurposeTo test whether a GM muscle strain injury affects muscle fascicle length ...

Quadratus lumborum muscle strain in a youth soccer player: a case report

Radiology Case Reports, 2023
Case: We report a case of quadratus lumborum muscle strain that occurred in a 16-year-old soccer player during a game. According to a video recording of the game, the injury occurred when the leg landed just after kicking the ball with the same leg while

The effect of hamstring flexibility on peak hamstring muscle strain in sprinting

Journal of Sport and Health Science, 2017
Background: The effect of hamstring flexibility on the peak hamstring muscle strains in sprinting, until now, remained unknown, which limited our understanding of risk factors of hamstring muscle strain injury (hamstring injury). As a continuation of our

Strain-Dependent Variation in Acute Ischemic Muscle Injury [PDF]

The American Journal of Pathology, 2018
Limited efficacy of clinical interventions for peripheral arterial disease necessitates a better understanding of the environmental and genetic determinants of tissue pathology. Existing research has largely ignored the early skeletal muscle injury response during hind limb ischemia (HLI).

Post-training urinary titin fragment concentration increases in athletes with previous muscle strain injury: a pilot study in soccer players

Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2021
Urinary titin fragment concentration has been established as a noninvasive biomarker of muscle protein degradation and muscle damage after exercise. We hypothesized that concerning the microdamage in the chronic phase of muscle strain injury, muscle ...

A review of recent perspectives on biomechanical risk factors associated with anterior cruciate ligament injury [PDF]

, 2014
There is considerable evidence to support a number of biomechanical risk factors associated with non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. This paper aimed to review these biomechanical risk factors and highlight future directions relating to ...

Central Tendon Injury Impairs Regional Neuromuscular Activation of the Rectus Femoris Muscle

Sports, 2021
We aimed to uncover which rectus femoris strain injury types affect regional activation within the rectus femoris. The rectus femoris has a region-specific functional role; the proximal region of the rectus femoris contributes more than the middle and ...

Relationships among hamstring muscle optimal length and hamstring flexibility and strength

Journal of Sport and Health Science, 2017
Background: Hamstring muscle strain injury (hamstring injury) due to excessive muscle strain is one of the most common injuries in sports. The relationships among hamstring muscle optimal lengths and hamstring flexibility and strength were unknown, which
