Evidence for adaptive explanations of semelparity in animals
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Semelparity, the reproductive strategy of reproducing once, is widespread but uncommon in animals. Classes of models to explain the evolution of semelparity are based either on age structure and mortality schedules – demographic models in which high post‐reproductive mortality risk favours high reproductive effort and semelparity results from ...

Muscle Atrophy Contributes to Quadriceps Weakness after ACL Reconstruction
Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport, 2015 Objectives Quadriceps weakness persists after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Muscle atrophy and activation failure may contribute. This study examined the roles of atrophy and activation failure in quadriceps weakness after anterior cruciate ...

Fhod3 in zebrafish supports myofibril stability during growth of embryonic skeletal muscle
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Actin filament organization in cardiomyocytes critically depends on the formin Fhod3, but a role for Fhod3 in skeletal muscle development has not yet been described. Results We demonstrate here that in zebrafish mutated for one of two fhod3 paralog genes, fhod3a, skeletal muscle of the trunk appears normal through 2 days post ...

Mapping Fatty Acid Composition in the Human Knee: Short‐Term Repeatability at 3T
Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Alterations in periarticular lipid composition are implicated in musculoskeletal diseases, yet short‐term reliability of MRI‐based triglyceride composition mapping in the knee is not fully established. Purpose To evaluate 1‐week repeatability of proton‐density fat fraction (PDFF) and triglyceride fatty‐acid composition—saturated ...
