Atrophy of the soleus muscle by hindlimb unweighting. [PDF]
The unweighting model is a unique whole animal model that will permit the future delineation of the mechanism(s) by which gravity maintains contractile mass in postural (slow-twitch) skeletal muscle.

Three-dimensional architecture of the whole human soleus muscle in vivo [PDF]
Background Most data on the architecture of the human soleus muscle have been obtained from cadaveric dissection or two-dimensional ultrasound imaging. We present the first comprehensive, quantitative study on the three-dimensional anatomy of the human ...

Utility of Computed Tomography Imaging in Assessing Soleus Muscle Viability for Flap Coverage [PDF]
Background:. The use of soleus muscle flaps for traumatic middle-third injuries to the lower leg can have variable viability, as there is no standardized way to evaluate the muscle before flap selection. This case series investigated both the utility and

Muscular Echovariation as a New Biomarker for the Classification of Soleus Muscle Pathology: A Cross-Sectional Study [PDF]
Background: Soleus injury is one of the most common soft tissue tears during sport activities. Current classifications of muscle tears are based on symptoms and tear size and they do not contribute suitable evidence-based treatment protocols.

Anatomy of Arterial Supply of the Soleus Muscle [PDF]
Soft tissue defects of the lower limb are a challenge to the plastic surgeon but a soleus muscle flap often provides the solution. Various types of soleus muscle flap have been described, based mainly on the vascular supply. This study has been conducted

Return to Play After Soleus Muscle Injuries
Background Soleus muscle injuries are common in different sports disciplines. The time required for recovery is often difficult to predict, and reinjury is common.

Enthalpy efficiency of the soleus muscle contributes to improvements in running economy
During human running, the soleus, as the main plantar flexor muscle, generates the majority of the mechanical work through active shortening. The fraction of chemical energy that is converted into muscular work (enthalpy efficiency) depends on the muscle

Unpowered exoskeletons with springs in parallel to human plantar flexor muscle-tendons can reduce the metabolic cost of walking. We used ultrasound imaging to look ‘under the skin’ and measure how exoskeleton stiffness alters soleus muscle contractile ...

Effects of pleiotrophin overexpression on mouse skeletal muscles in normal loading and in actual and simulated microgravity. [PDF]
Pleiotrophin (PTN) is a widespread cytokine involved in bone formation, neurite outgrowth, and angiogenesis. In skeletal muscle, PTN is upregulated during myogenesis, post-synaptic induction, and regeneration after crushing, but little is known regarding
