Plantar flexor muscle weakness may cause stiff-knee gait [PDF]
, 2021 Aim: The iterative simulation studies proclaim that plantar flexor (PF) muscle weakness is one of the contributors of stiff knee gait (SKG), although, whether isolated PF weakness generates SKG has not been validated in able-bodied people or individuals ...

Transient weakness and compound muscle action potential decrement in myotonia congenita [PDF]
, 1998 Twenty-five Turkish patients with recessive myotonia congenita (RMC), 16 of whom had genetic confirmation, were studied. Nineteen had transient weakness. In the upper extremities, onset age of transient weakness was usually in the early teens.

How robust is human gait to muscle weakness? [PDF]
, 2011 Humans have a remarkable capacity to perform complex movements requiring agility, timing, and strength. Disuse, aging, and disease can lead to a loss of muscle strength, which frequently limits the performance of motor tasks.

Post-sepsis chronic muscle weakness can be prevented by pharmacological protection of mitochondria
Molecular MedicineBackground Sepsis, mainly caused by bacterial infections, is the leading cause of in-patient hospitalizations. After discharge, most sepsis survivors suffer from long-term medical complications, particularly chronic skeletal muscle weakness.

Assessment of the severity of primary respiratory muscle failure
South African Journal of Physiotherapy, 1985 Respiratory muscle weakness results either from disorders of the respiratory motor unit (primary type) or from muscle fatigue due to severe underlying pulmonary disease (secondary type).

Muscle Weakness in Persons with Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]
, 2010 Skeletal muscle weakness is a problem for people living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Alterations in the central nervous system may be the primary source of muscle weakness because of the pathophysiology of MS. However, changes in peripheral mediators of
