Changes in the Viscoelastic Properties of the Vastus Lateralis Muscle With Fatigue [PDF]
We investigated the in vivo effects of voluntary fatiguing isometric contractions of the knee extensor muscles on the viscoelastic properties of the vastus lateralis (VL). Twelve young males (29.0 ± 4.5 years) performed an intermittent voluntary fatigue protocol consisting of 6 sets × 10 repetitions of 5-s voluntary maximal isometric contractions with ...

Fatigue and the Electromechanical Efficiency of the Vastus Medialis and Vastus Lateralis Muscles [PDF]
AbstractContext:The relationship between the amplitudes of the mechanomyographic (MMG) and electromyographic (EMG) signals has been used to examine the “electromechanical efficiency” (EME) of normal and diseased muscle. The EME may help us to better understand the neuromuscular relationship between the vastus medialis and vastus lateralis muscles ...

A case of vastus lateralis muscle metastasis of tongue carcinoma
Distant metastasis is the most important prognostic factor for head and neck cancer. This report discusses the case of a 50-year-old man with distant metastasis to the vastus lateralis muscle of tongue carcinoma. The tumorectomy was performed under a diagnosis of tongue carcinoma (cT2N0M0, Stage II).
