Non-Surgical Lower-Limb Rehabilitation Enhances Quadriceps Strength in Inpatients with Hip Fracture: A Study on Force Capacity and Fatigue

Applied Sciences, 2023
Measuring muscle fatigue and resistance to fatigue is a topical theme in many clinical research studies. Multi-domain approaches, including electromyography (EMG), are employed to measure fatigue in rehabilitation contexts.

Modulation in the Stiffness of Specific Muscles of the Quadriceps in Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis and Their Relationship With Functional Ability

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Deficits in the flexibility of the quadriceps are one of the risk factors for developing knee joint disorders. No studies have investigated the changes in the stiffness of the quadriceps muscle among patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Therefore, the

Assessment of Quadriceps Muscle in Advanced Knee Osteoarthritis and Correlation with Lower Limb Alignment

Medicina
Background and Objectives: Despite extensive studies of the role of quadriceps and quadriceps/hamstring balance in knee osteoarthritis (OA), the roles of the vastus intermedius, medialis, and lateralis in OA remain unclear.

Effects of Multipath and Conventional NMES on Maximum Comfortable Stimulus and Torque Production

Central European Journal of Sport Sciences and Medicine, 2019
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.

Effects of quadriceps strength asymmetry, ageing and external loading on stair negotiation [PDF]

, 2021
Ageing is associated with reduced stability and increased risk of falls. One risk factor for falls is sarcopenia: age-related muscle loss. Exaggeration of age-related muscle loss in one limb over the other results in strength asymmetry.

Obesity Subtypes and Longitudinal Trajectories of Function Over Seven Years of Follow‐Up: Data From the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Obesity, defined by body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2, is a risk factor for functional limitations in people with knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, function varies among such individuals. Our objective was to evaluate the implications of obesity subtypes on longitudinal patterns of physical functioning in people with or at risk for knee OA ...
