Quadriceps myositis: an appraisal of the diagnostic criteria of quadriceps myopathy [PDF]
Summary A patient with the clinical picture of quadriceps myopathy was shown to have an underlying myositis. Review of the literature showed myositis to be a rare cause of the 'quadriceps syndrome' but it is important to identify this group because they are potentially treatable with corticosteroids.

Effects of Multipath and Conventional NMES on Maximum Comfortable Stimulus and Torque Production
A novel multipath NMES (m-NMES) device has shown improved outcomes relative to conventional NMES (c-NMES) during recent basic and training studies. However, the mechanisms by which m-NMES outperformed c-NMES remain unclear.

Hereditary quadriceps myopathy [PDF]
A familial myopathy affecting a man, his three daughters, and one of his brothers is reported. The quadriceps muscle was predominantly involved, with aching pain as an early feature, and later prominent areas of hypertrophy projecting from patches of atrophy gave the quadriceps a most striking and unusual appearance. Presentation was in adult life, and
