Osteopontin ablation ameliorates muscular dystrophy by shifting macrophages to a pro-regenerative phenotype. [PDF]
In the degenerative disease Duchenne muscular dystrophy, inflammatory cells enter muscles in response to repetitive muscle damage. Immune factors are required for muscle regeneration, but chronic inflammation creates a profibrotic milieu that exacerbates

Physical Characteristics of Fast Roping in British Elite Law Enforcement Officers
ABSTRACT Elite law enforcement and special forces operators around the world have a unique skill set, including some risky methods of entry into a scene of operation. With fast roping being actively utilized by this population, it is important to gain an understanding of the physical demands of the task.

A comparative study of hummingbirds and chickens provides mechanistic insight on the histidine containing dipeptide role in skeletal muscle metabolism [PDF]
Histidine containing dipeptides (HCDs) have numerous ergogenic and therapeutic properties, but their primary role in skeletal muscle remains unclear. Potential functions include pH regulation, protection against reactive oxygen/nitrogen species, or Ca2 ...

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

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.

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 ...
