ABSTRACT Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by progressive muscle wasting and functional decline. Prognostic assessment in clinical practice relies largely on functional scales and traditional anthropometric measures. The prognostic relevance of muscle mass, muscle strength and sarcopenia in ALS remains incompletely defined.

ABSTRACT Background Transcriptomic adaptations of ageing skeletal muscle to concurrent resistance training (RT) and high‐intensity interval training (HIIT) remain insufficiently characterized. We investigated the effects of a 12‐week concurrent RT + HIIT intervention on the vastus lateralis transcriptome in middle‐aged and older adults and whether ...
