Regional Differences in Muscle and Fascial Tissue Stiffness in the Rectus Femoris Are Dependent Upon Localised Stretching

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Mechanical properties of the deep muscle fascia are important in myofascial force transmission and injury; however, its investigation by shear wave elastography (SWE) in the literature is minimal. Regional differences in biarticular muscle stiffness have implications in mechanism of injury.

LED Photobiomodulation for Pain Reduction in Temporomandibular Disorder: A Randomized, Controlled, and Blinded Clinical Trial

Journal of Biophotonics, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
This randomized, controlled, and blinded trial demonstrated that photobiomodulation (PBM) with 850 nm (infrared) and 660 nm (red) LED clusters effectively reduced pain in patients with temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD). ABSTRACT This clinical, randomized, controlled, and blinded trial evaluated photobiomodulation (PBM) using 850 nm (infrared) and 660

Rehabilitation paired with vagus nerve stimulation for motor function of chronic ischemic stroke patients in China: Study protocol of a multicenter randomized controlled trial (Repair Study)

Neuroprotection, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 80-93, March 2026.
Mechanism of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) paired with movement: VNS activates cholinergic nucleus basalis and noradrenergic locus coeruleus neurons, modulating motor cortex activity (light green and red areas) in a task‐specific manner during targeted movements. VNS: vagus nerve stimulation. Abstract Background Stroke remains the leading cause of long‐

Effects of hydrorelease on the mechanical properties of muscle and fascia: A study using ultrasonic shear wave elastography

Clinical Physiology and Functional Imaging, Volume 46, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Purpose Recent studies have shown that hydrorelease reduces gliding resistance around nerves and between fascia, alleviating pain. However, the effects of hydrorelease on the mechanical properties of muscle and fascia remain unclear. This study aimed to examine changes in the mechanical properties of muscle and fascia before and after ...
