Transverse tubules (T-tubules) play significant role in muscle contraction. However, the underlying mechanism of their ...

Molecular discoveries may help improve treatments for labor and pain. When labor starts, the uterus must produce steady, ...

Abstract: In this paper, an existing physiological muscle model that predicts muscular force in response to electrical stimulation is adapted to be compatible with gradient-based optimization, in ...

The mechanism of skeletal muscle contraction is a process that relies on calcium signaling. However, the physiological role of calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) through the ryanodine receptor ...

Objective This study aimed to investigate how knee extensor and flexor strength change over time after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Design Systematic review with longitudinal meta ...

Alex Smith was 11 years old when he lost his right arm in 2003. A drunk driver operating a boat collided with his family’s vessel on Lake Austin, sending him overboard. He hit a propeller, and his arm ...
