The Use of MSK Ultrasound with Quadriceps Muscle Injury. [PDF]

Int J Sports Phys Ther, 2023
Quadriceps muscle injury is a common occurrence, especially among athletes. While a careful history and a thorough physical examination are important steps in the assessment of quadriceps muscle pathology, it is still difficult to differentiate the type and severity of the pathology. Because of this difficulty, musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSK-US) is an

Quadriceps muscle strength of the affected limb in medial meniscus posterior root tears is negatively correlated with the progression of postoperative medial joint space narrowing [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics
Purpose The effect of quadriceps muscle strength on medial joint space (MJS) narrowing after repair for medial meniscus (MM) posterior root tears (MMPRTs) has not yet been determined.

Impaired lower limb muscle mass, quality and function in end stage liver disease: A cross‐sectional study

Experimental Physiology, 2023
Sarcopenia is associated with reduced quality of life and increased mortality in patients with end stage liver disease (ESLD). Historically, sarcopenia identification in ESLD utilised L3 skeletal muscle index (SMI).

Quadriceps Muscle Morphology Is an Important Determinant of Maximal Isometric and Crank Torques of Cyclists

Sports, 2023
The aim of this study was to determine if quadriceps morphology [muscle volume (MV); cross-sectional area (CSA)], vastus lateralis (VL) muscle architecture, and muscle quality [echo intensity (ECHO)] can explain differences in knee extensor maximal ...

The Comparison of Different Stretching Intensities on the Range of Motion and Muscle Stiffness of the Quadriceps Muscles

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
Muscle strain is one of the most frequent sports injuries, having the rectus femoris (RF) muscle as the reported preferred site of quadriceps muscle strain. The decrease muscle stiffness could be an effective RF muscle strain prevention.

Relationship between modified Nutrition Risk in the Critically Ill (mNUTRIC) Score and nutrition intake with quadriceps femoris muscle thickness in critically ill patients

Qanun Medika: Jurnal Kedokteran Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Muhammadiyah Surabaya, 2021
Muscle wasting in critical illness is seen from inadequate nutrition intake and stress catabolism. Modified Nutrition Risk in the Critically Ill (NUTRIC) Score is a screening tool that measures starvation, inflammation, disease severity, and organ ...

Quadriceps muscle strength in scoliosis [PDF]

European Respiratory Journal, 2009
Quadriceps muscle weakness is an important component of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We hypothesised that quadriceps weakness would also be a feature of restrictive lung disease due to scoliosis.We studied 10 patients with severe scoliosis (median (interquartile range (IQR)) forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)35.3 (11)% predicted ...
