Journal ArticleDOI

Subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue lipolysis during exercise determined by arteriovenous measurements in older women.

TL;DR: The lipolytic response matches skeletal muscle NEFA uptake, and decreased ability to mobilize fat during exercise is therefore not likely to cause increased fat mass with advancing age.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heterotopic Ossification After an Achilles Tendon Rupture Cannot Be Prevented by Early Functional Rehabilitation: A Cohort Study.

TL;DR: Heterotopic ossification occurs relatively frequently after Achilles tendon ruptures but appears to have no adverse effects on functional outcomes, and weightbearing or ankle-joint mobilization does not prevent this from occurring.
Journal ArticleDOI

Temperature responses to electrically induced cycling in spinal cord injured persons.

TL;DR: It is suggested that these increased temperatures may act as stimuli, directly or, through resulting release of humoral factors, and elicit the changes in heart rate, as well as the previously observed adaptive changes after electrically induced exercise, e.g., in muscle fiber size, and capillarization.
Journal Article

[Overuse injuries in tendon tissue: insight into adaptation mechanisms].

TL;DR: Signals for increased collagen synthesis seem to run in parallel with mechanically induced activation of protease driven degradation of connective tissue in tendon and muscle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isometric abdominal wall muscle strength assessment in individuals with incisional hernia: a prospective reliability study.

TL;DR: The Good Strength dynamometer provided a reliable, low-cost measure of truncal flexion and extension in patients with VIH and healthy volunteers with an intact abdominal wall.
