Nutritional habits prior to exercise can influence metabolic processes both during and after an exercise bout. Due to the negative impact of excess body fat on metabolic health, pre-exercise nutrition and exercise interventions that target improved f...
Background: Patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are assessed for pain, walking ability, patient-reported outcome (PRO), and daily physical activity, which may be interrelated. However, the structure underlying these multidimensional...
Introduction Musculoskeletal disorders associated with muscular strain on the neck and shoulders affect women in administration more often than men. Ergonomic guidelines have historically been derived from male models, often ignoring biomechanical di...
Cisplatin causes skeletal muscle wasting in tumor-free rodents, reducing muscle mass, myofiber size and, where measured, strength. This critical narrative review appraises that phenotype and its mechanistic basis. Tumor-bearing models show that the l...
Joint damage may result from different conditions, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, infection, and haemophilic arthropathy. Long-term effects of resistance training in individuals with massive joint destruction remain poorly documented...
Background: Fatigue in high-intensity exercise is often attributed to a defended ceiling of peripheral fatigue; evidence is mixed. Objectives: We aimed to assess whether the end-exercise potentiated-twitch decrement behaves as a regulated variable ac...
The tongue is a highly important, multifunctional, and complex organ in human physiology. It is critical for digestion, speech, immune surveillance, and sensory perception, playing a dynamic role in daily life. Abnormalities in the innervation and/or...
Performance fatigability is characterized by a decline in the capacity to maintain force or power during sustained or repeated activity. This exploratory study quantified knee-extensor mechanical performance and rectus femoris surface electromyograph...
Background/Objectives: Creatine (Cr) supplementation may serve as a nutritional intervention, enhancing gut metabolism and preserving lean body mass, specifically fat-free mass, thereby improving functional capacity and quality of life in individuals...
Objectives: Shoulder tendinopathy is a common musculoskeletal disorder associated with persistent pain and functional disability. Although the relationship between pain and functional impairment has been investigated in other disorders, evidence in s...
Background/Objectives: Sarcopenia is an age-related skeletal muscle disorder associated with functional decline, frailty, and reduced quality of life. Vitamin B12 plays an essential role in neuromuscular function, DNA synthesis, and homocysteine meta...
