Chronic capsiate supplementation increases fat-free mass and upper body strength but not the inflammatory response to resistance exercise in young untrained men: a randomized, placebo-controlled and double-blind study

open access: yesJournal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 2021
Background Acute capsaicinoid and capsinoid supplementation has endurance and resistance exercise benefits; however, if these short-term performance benefits translate into chronic benefits when combined with resistance training is currently unknown ...

Embedding Pulmonary Rehabilitation for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease in the Home and Community Setting: A Rapid Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Rehabilitation Sciences, 2022
This paper presents a rapid review of the literature for the components, benefits, barriers, and facilitators of pulmonary rehabilitation for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) people in-home and community-based settings.

Interactive Modelling of Volumetric Musculoskeletal Anatomy [PDF]

open access: yesACM Trans. Graph., Vol. 40, No. 4, Article 122. Publication date: August 2021, 2021
We present a new approach for modelling musculoskeletal anatomy. Unlike previous methods, we do not model individual muscle shapes as geometric primitives (polygonal meshes, NURBS etc.). Instead, we adopt a volumetric segmentation approach where every point in our volume is assigned to a muscle, fat, or bone tissue.

Resistance exercise training improves mucociliary clearance in subjects with COPD: A randomized clinical trial

open access: yesPulmonology, 2019
Introduction Elastic tubing was recently investigated as an alternative to the conventional resistance training (RT) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The effects of RT on the mucociliary system have not yet been reported in the literature.

Pro-myogenic small molecules revealed by a chemical screen on primary muscle stem cells

open access: yesSkeletal Muscle, 2020
Satellite cells are the canonical muscle stem cells that regenerate damaged skeletal muscle. Loss of function of these cells has been linked to reduced muscle repair capacity and compromised muscle health in acute muscle injury and congenital ...

Transgenic mice expressing tunable levels of DUX4 develop characteristic facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy-like pathophysiology ranging in severity

open access: yesSkeletal Muscle, 2020
Background All types of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) are caused by the aberrant activation of the somatically silent DUX4 gene, the expression of which initiates a cascade of cellular events ultimately leading to FSHD pathophysiology ...

FIM: A fatigued-injured muscle model based on the sliding filament theory [PDF]

open access: yesComputers in Biology and Medicine, 2023, 164, pp.107367, 2023
Skeletal muscle modeling has a vital role in movement studies and the development of therapeutic approaches. In the current study, a Huxley-based model for skeletal muscle is proposed, which demonstrates the impact of impairments in muscle characteristics.

Skeletal muscle transcriptomics identifies common pathways in nerve crush injury and ageing

open access: yesSkeletal Muscle, 2022
Motor unit remodelling involving repeated denervation and re-innervation occurs throughout life. The efficiency of this process declines with age contributing to neuromuscular deficits.

Angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor prevents skeletal muscle fibrosis in myocardial infarction mice

open access: yesSkeletal Muscle, 2020
Background Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β)-Smad2/3 is the major signaling pathway of fibrosis, which is characterized by the excessive production and accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) components, including collagen.
