Muscle shape consistency and muscle volume prediction of thigh muscles
Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 2014The present study investigated the applicability of a muscle volume prediction method using only the muscle length (LM), the maximum anatomical cross‐sectional area (ACSAmax), and a muscle‐specific shape factor (p) on the quadriceps vastii. LM, ACSAmax, muscle volume, and p were obtained from magnetic resonance images of the vastus intermedius (VI ...

Muscle damage is not a function of muscle force but active muscle strain
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1993Contractile properties of rabbit tibialis anterior muscles were measured after eccentric contraction to investigate the mechanism of muscle injury. In the first experiment, two groups of muscles were strained 25% of the muscle fiber length at identical rates.

The respiratory muscles provide the motive power for breathing. Despite this central role in ventilation their physiology has been relatively neglected, perhaps partly because of the complexity of their function, and the difficulties of studying them.

In recent years the term CHANNELOPATHY has been adopted to describe neurological disorders caused by mutations in different ion channel genes. Myopathic channelopathies include two main groups: nondystrophic myotonias and periodic paralyses. This article reviews the clinical features, diagnostic approach, molecular causes, and management of patients ...

Diseases of Muscle and the Muscle End-Plate
1977Muscles are subject to a wide range of inherited, degenerative, metabolic and toxic disorders. There is a marked similarity to peripheral nerve disease in that a wide range of disorders produce a limited group of symptoms and signs. Differential diagnosis depends on a careful family history, careful documentation of the extent and distribution of the ...

Annual Review of Physiology, 1994
Skeletal muscles are most often examined at the cellular level in relationship to their primary role in force generation. Throughout the animal kingdom, regardless of phylogeny, muscle generates heat. Exercise, shivering, and nonshivering thermogenesis provide excess heat in muscle that affords adaptive significance to a wide variety of organisms ...
