Mechanisms of Skeletal Muscle Weakness [PDF]
Skeletal muscle weakness is an important feature of numerous -pathological conditions and it may also be a component in normal ageing. Decreased muscular strength can be due to decreased muscle mass and/or intrinsic defects in the muscle cells. In this chapter we will discuss decreased force production due to mechanisms intrinsic to skeletal muscle ...

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 1997Muscle has an integral role in the structure and function of joints. Evidence for muscle weakness in osteoarthritis of the knee exists and is not fully explained by the effects of aging. Weakness is associated with pain and disability.
