Partial rupture of the quadriceps muscle in a child [PDF]

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2010
The quadriceps femoris muscle ruptures usually occur in the middle-aged population. We present a 4-year-old patient with partial rupture of the quadriceps femoris muscle. To our knowledge, this is the youngest patient reported with a quadriceps femoris muscle rupture.A 4-year-old girl admitted to our clinic with left knee pain and limitation in knee ...

Relationship between quadriceps thickness and 60-second sit-to-stand test in patients with chronic kidney disease

Brazilian Journal of Nephrology, 2021
Background: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between quadriceps muscle thickness and functional performance on the 60s sit-to-stand test (60s-STS), the six-minute walk test (6MWT), and handgrip strength in non-dialytic stage 4 and 5 chronic ...

Total rupture of the quadriceps muscle in an adolescent

Revista Brasileira de Ortopedia (English Edition), 2013
The total rupture of the quadriceps muscle in an adolescent is a rare lesion. We report a case of a 13 year old boy who suffered a direct trauma to the left knee. No predisposing factors have been diagnosed. The lesion was treated with surgical repair and transosseus sutures. The aim of this study was to present a rare case of rupture of the quadriceps

Factors associated with impairment of quadriceps muscle function in Chinese patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
BACKGROUND: Quadriceps muscle dysfunction is well confirmed in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and reported to be related to a higher risk of mortality. Factors contributing to quadriceps dysfunction have been postulated, while not one alone

Effect of Blood Flow Restriction Training on Quadriceps Muscle Strength, Morphology, Physiology, and Knee Biomechanics Before and After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: Protocol for a Randomized Clinical Trial.

Physical Therapy, 2019
BACKGROUND Despite best practice, quadriceps strength deficits often persist for years after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Blood flow restriction training (BFRT) is a possible new intervention which applies a pressurized cuff to the ...
