Ultrasonographic evaluation of ulnar innervated muscles in ulnar neuropathy at the elbow

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Quantitative muscle ultrasound (qMUS) provides morphological measurements that can support clinical observation of muscle atrophy and weakness. As the use of qMUS continues to expand, and its potential for broader implementation in neuromuscular evaluation grows, there is a clear need for further validation, particularly in ...

DL_Track - Automated analysis of muscle architecture from B-mode ultrasonography images using deep learning

Current Issues in Sport Science, 2023
B-mode ultrasound is commonly used to image musculoskeletal tissues, but one major bottleneck is data analysis. Manual analysis is commonly deployed for assessment of muscle thickness, pennation angle and fascicle length in muscle ultrasonography images.

Quadrate orientation and joint reaction force underwent correlated evolution during suchian evolution

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The quadrate is the cranial bone of the nonmammalian jaw joint. The quadrate has long been hypothesized to mirror the direction of joint reaction forces (JRF) during feeding. This study uses 3D biomechanical modeling to reveal a striking evolutionary link between quadrate orientation and JRF direction, unlocking new insights into the dynamic forces ...

The effects of static stretching programs on muscle strength and muscle architecture of the medial gastrocnemius.

PLoS ONE, 2020
IntroductionStatic stretching (SS) program are widely used in clinical and athletic settings. Many previous studies investigate the effect of SS program on muscle strength and muscle architecture (muscle thickness, and pennation angleh).

The individual and combined effects of obesity- and ageing-induced systemic inflammation on human skeletal muscle properties. [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to determine whether circulating pro-inflammatory cytokines, elevated with increased fat mass and ageing, were associated with muscle properties in young and older people with variable adiposity ...

Architecture of lower leg muscles in children: Reference curves and potential mechanisms of growth

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Muscle architecture (physiological cross‐sectional area, fascicle lengths and pennation angle) was measured from multimodal MRI scans of the lower legs of 197 children aged ≤15 years. We showed that lower leg muscle volumes (product of PCSA and fascicle length) increase primarily through increases in PCSA (transverse growth) rather than increases in ...

Cross‐education of lower limb muscle strength following resistance exercise training in males and females: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cross‐education describes the training of one limb that leads to performance enhancements in the contralateral untrained limb, driven by neural changes rather than muscle adaptation. In this systematic review and meta‐analysis, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy of cross‐education (vs. a control group) via resistance exercise training (RET) for
