The aim of this study was to compare the oxygenation response in the vastus lateralis muscle (SmO2) in two types of tests: supramaximal and maximal. Furthermore, gender differences in SmO2 response to test exercise were assessed and the usefulness of ...

Research into the Health Benefits of Sprint Interval Training Should Focus on Protocols with Fewer and Shorter Sprints [PDF]
Over the past decade, it has been convincingly shown that regularly performing repeated brief supramaximal cycle sprints (sprint interval training [SIT]) is associated with aerobic adaptations and health benefits similar to or greater than with moderate ...

MRI of Neurogenic Human Motor Units Following Poliomyelitis
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Surviving motor units in neurogenic diseases demonstrate collateral reinnervation. Scanning electromyography (EMG) reveals normal motor unit corridor length, but with “silent regions,” suggesting that reinnervation does not result in increased motor unit size but may increase motor unit complexity.

Effects of exercise-induced arterial hypoxemia on limb muscle fatigue and performance [PDF]
1. Reductions in arterial O2 saturation (−5% to −10% SaO2 below rest) occur over time during sustained heavy-intensity exercise in a normoxic environment, caused primarily by the effects of acid pH and increased temperature on the position of the ...

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims For recording the compound muscle action potential (CMAP) of the deltoid muscle, the reference electrode over the acromion (Ac) has been used to avoid contamination of responses from other arm muscles to the distal tendon (DT). A recent article recommended the sternum (St) as the reference electrode.

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Previous studies of children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) have focused on the ulnar and median nerves, while lower‐limb and proximal motor nerves remain insufficiently characterized. This study aimed to evaluate compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitudes in upper‐ and lower‐limb motor nerves in children with SMA

Effects of Low Cell pH and Elevated Inorganic Phosphate on the pCa-Force Relationship in Single Muscle Fibers at Near-Physiological Temperatures [PDF]
Intense muscle contraction induces high rates of ATP hydrolysis with resulting increases in Pi, H+, and ADP, factors thought to induce fatigue by interfering with steps in the cross-bridge cycle.
