Combined Use of EMG and Muscle Ultrasound for the Evaluation of Scapular Winging

Muscle &Nerve, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 495-499, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Scapular winging occurs as an abnormal protrusion of the scapula due to nerve injury, muscle weakness, bone, or joint pathology. The main muscular stabilizers of the scapula include the serratus anterior, trapezius, rhomboid major and minor, levator scapulae, and pectoralis minor.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation over sensorimotor cortex disrupts anticipatory reflex gain modulation for skilled action [PDF]

, 2006
Skilled interactions with new environments require flexible changes to the transformation from somatosensory signals to motor outputs. Transcortical reflex gains are known to be modulated according to task and environmental dynamics, but the mechanism of

Development of a Grasshopper‐Leg‐Inspired Back‐Type Exoskeleton for the Reduction of Muscle Activation During Stoop Activities

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 739-760, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Farmers frequently suffer from musculoskeletal disorders, particularly lower back pain (LBP), mainly due to occupational ergonomic factors such as repetitive stooping and lifting. This study proposes using an exoskeleton to reduce LBP risk by providing external torque to the hip joints.

Gross Anatomy and Approach to the Humerus and Femur in the White‐Eared Opossum (Didelphis albiventris)

Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The white‐eared opossum (Didelphis albiventris) is a Neotropical marsupial that readily adapts to urban environments. Due to its presence in anthropogenic habitats, this species is frequently exposed to vehicle collisions and dog attacks. Such trauma often results in long bone fractures, with humeral and femoral fractures being common in ...

Microscopic and molecular aspects of skeletal muscle alterations in cerebral palsy

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 343-357, March 2026.
Cerebral palsy, caused by non‐progressive brain injury, is frequently accompanied by skeletal muscle alterations. This review synthesizes current evidence from muscle biopsy studies, revealing cellular and molecular adaptations in muscle tissue. Abstract Cerebral palsy (CP), the most prevalent childhood‐onset motor disability, frequently entails ...

Enhanced Expression of IL32 mRNA in Skeletal Muscles in the Context of Head and Neck Carcinomas

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Cancer‐related sarcopenia (CRS) is a significant complication of head and neck carcinoma (HNC), characterised by muscle degeneration and poor clinical outcomes. Although various dietary and therapeutic interventions have been explored, most of them remain empirical, and the molecular mechanisms underlying CRS are not yet fully ...

Muscle Imaging in Inclusion Body Myositis: Refinement of MRI Criteria and Insights Into Upper Body Involvement

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The diagnosis of inclusion body myositis (IBM) can be delayed because of its heterogeneous clinical presentation and the lack of specific biomarkers. Muscle imaging has gained increasing relevance over the past decade and is now included among the supportive criteria in the international diagnostic guidelines.
