Effect of Gender, Disease Duration and Treatment on Muscle Strength in Myasthenia Gravis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The aim of this observational, cross-sectional study was to quantify the potential presence of muscle weakness among patients with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG).

Muscle Strength and Electromyography.
Journal of exercise physiology, 1992 筋の時間的・空間的な収縮特性は、表面筋電図学的な解析によってある程度観測することが可能である。しかし、測定から信号処理までの過程における方法論的な手続きに対する配慮が不十分であると、抽出された情報の実際的な利用価値は低いものになってしまう。そこで、本稿では、表面筋電図学的解析に関する基礎的な情報に関して整理した上で、筋収縮力、筋疲労、筋カトレーニングといった筋収縮特性と表面筋電図との関連性に関して概説する。

How do muscle and bone strengthening and balance activities (MBSBA) vary across the life course, and are there particular ages where MBSBA are most important? [PDF]
, 2018 This narrative review focuses on the role of strength and balance activities throughout the lifecycle to improve physical capacity and reduce all-cause mortality.

Experimental Gerontology, 2023 Background: Although the 5 times stand-to-sit test (5TSST) is indicated for screening for muscle weakness in older adults, its validity is based only on the correlation with quadriceps muscle strength or with the muscle strength of a few muscle groups of

ATP-induced reconfiguration of the micro-viscoelasticity of cardiac and skeletal myosin solutions [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 We study the high-frequency micro-mechanical response of suspensions composed by cardiac and skeletal muscle myosin by optical trapping interferometry. We observe that in low ionic strength solutions upon the addition of magnesium adenosine triphosphate (\ch{MgATP^2-}), myosin suspensions radically change their micro-mechanics properties, generating a ...

Paramagnetic response of muscle-type systems [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 93, 062407 (2016), 2015 We provide a prototypical description of mechanically-induced collective conformational change (folding), relevant in a variety of biological contexts from muscle contraction to hair cell gating and integrin binding. Our study is inspired by the seminal Huxley-Simmons (HS) model which we reinterpret from the perspective of stochastic dynamics involving

Systemic inflammation, body composition, and physical performance in old community-dwellers [PDF]
, 2017 Background Chronic inflammation, changes in body composition, and declining physical function are hallmarks of the ageing process. The aim of the present study was to provide a preliminary characterisation of the relationship among these age-related ...
