Investigating the Role of Type I Interferon Signaling on Muscle Disease Using Mouse Models
Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective Dysregulated type I interferon (IFN) signaling contributes to autoimmune myositis pathogenesis. We investigated the therapeutic effects of JAK inhibitors in two mouse models. We also examined how type I IFNs affect muscle vasculature. Methods Myositis was induced in major histocompatibility complex class I double transgenic ([TRE‐H‐2Kb (H ...

Alternative Methods of Determining Hamstrings-to-Quadriceps Ratios: a Comprehensive Review
Sports Medicine - Open, 2019 The hamstrings-to-quadriceps muscle strength ratio calculated by peak torque has been used as an important tool to detect muscle imbalance, monitor knee joint stability, describe muscle strength properties and functionality, and for lower extremity ...

Integrating yoga into anatomy and clinical medicine education: A holistic approach to learning
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract Anatomical knowledge is fundamental for success in clinical settings. Unfortunately, anatomy education within professional health programs has experienced a continual decrease in contact hours and curricular content over the previous two decades, leading to deficits and potential gaps in anatomical science knowledge.

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.Abstract Patellofemoral instability remains a challenging condition, especially in skeletally immature patients, who are at increased risk of recurrence. The medial patellofemoral ligament has historically been the focus of surgical reconstruction; however, recent anatomic studies have also highlighted the medial quadriceps tendon–femoral ligament as ...

Early Rehabilitation with Weight-bearing Standing-shaking-board Exercise in Combination with Electrical Muscle Stimulation after Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction [PDF]
, 2012 The objective of early rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is to increase the muscle strength of the lower extremities. Closed kinetic chain (CKC) exercise induces co-contraction of the agonist and antagonist muscles. The

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 ...
