Universal Proteomic Signature After Exercise‐Induced Muscle Injury in Muscular Dystrophies
ABSTRACT Objective Several neuromuscular disorders (NMDs) are characterized by progressive muscle damage and are marked by the elevation of circulating muscle proteins from activity‐related injury. Despite a diverse array of genetic drivers, many NMDs share similar patterns of exercise intolerance and higher concentrations of muscle injury proteins ...

In-Depth Bicycle Collision Reconstruction: From a Crash Helmet to Brain Injury Evaluation
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a prevalent injury among cyclists experiencing head collisions. In legal cases, reliable brain injury evaluation can be difficult and controversial as mild injuries cannot be diagnosed with conventional brain imaging ...

A mechanics theory for the exploration of a high-throughput, sterile 3D $\textit{in vitro}$ traumatic brain injury model [PDF]
Brain injuries resulting from mechanical trauma represent an ongoing global public health issue. Several $\textit{in vitro}$ and $\textit{in vivo}$ models for traumatic brain injury (TBI) continue to be developed for delineating the various complex pathophysiological processes involved in its onset and progression. Developing an $\textit{in vitro}$ TBI

Military Service Roles and ALS Among Veterans: A Matched Case–Control Study
ABSTRACT While military service is an established risk factor for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), it remains unclear whether this association is linked to combat. We conducted a matched case–control study comparing 191 ALS patients who were veterans of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) with known military service type and 1910 matched controls. The

Multi-directional dynamic model for traumatic brain injury detection [PDF]
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a complex injury that is hard to predict and diagnose, with many studies focused on associating head kinematics to brain injury risk. Recently, there has been a push towards using computationally expensive finite element (FE) models of the brain to create tissue deformation metrics of brain injury. Here, we developed a 3

Hamstring strain injury : rate of torque development and previous hamstring strain injury [PDF]
Hamstring strain injuries (HSI) are extremely common in football and are the primary cause of re-injury in football players. Although the isokinetic strength ratios have often been used to predict hamstring injuries in football players, the rate of ...
