Test–retest reliability of tip, key, and palmar pinch force sense in healthy adults

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background No previous studies have investigated the test–retest reliability of tip, key, and palmar pinch force sense in healthy adults. The present study explores the test-retest reliability of tip, key, and palmar pinch force sense for different force

Acute effects of isotonic eccentric exercise on the neuromuscular function of knee extensors vary according to the motor task: impact on muscle strength profiles, proprioception and balance

Frontiers in Sports and Active Living, 2023
IntroductionEccentric exercise has often been reported to result in muscle damage, limiting the muscle potential to produce force. However, understanding whether these adverse consequences extend to a broader, functional level is of apparently less ...

Does dystonic muscle activity affect sense of effort in cervical dystonia? [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
BACKGROUND:Focal dystonia has been associated with deficient processing of sense of effort cues. However, corresponding studies are lacking in cervical dystonia (CD). We hypothesized that dystonic muscle activity would perturb neck force control based on

Effects of fascia-oriented training program on joint position sense, force sense and postural control of dancers [PDF]

Journal of Kinesiology and Exercise Sciences
Introduction: The successful execution of dance elements demands exceptionally high levels of proprioceptive acuity. The fascial system contains significantly more mechanoreceptors than the muscular system and plays a crucial role in proprioceptive ...

Mechanical Force Sensing in Tissues [PDF]

, 2014
Tissue size, shape, and organization reflect individual cell behaviors such as proliferation, shape change, and movement. Evidence suggests that mechanical signals operate in tandem with biochemical cues to properly coordinate cell behavior and pattern tissues.
