Aging is associated with progressive loss of neuromuscular function that often leads to
progressive disability and loss of independence. The term sarcopenia is now commonly …

Surface electromyography (sEMG) is a popular research tool in sport and rehabilitation
sciences. Common study designs include the comparison of sEMG amplitudes collected …

Aging is characterized by loss of spinal motor neurons (MNs) due to apoptosis, reduced
insulin‐like growth factor I signaling, elevated amounts of circulating cytokines, and …

Sarcopenia reflects a progressive withdrawal of anabolism and an increased catabolism,
along with a reduced muscle regeneration capacity. Muscle force and power decline more …

It is generally accepted that neural factors play an important role in muscle strength gains.
This article reviews the neural adaptations in strength, with the goal of laying the foundations …

Muscle strength and, to a greater extent, power inexorably decline with ageing. Quantitative
loss of muscle mass, referred to as “sarcopenia”, is the most important factor underlying this …

Enhanced echo intensity (EI) on an ultrasound image of skeletal muscle indicates changes
in muscle quality, including increases in intramuscular fibrous and adipose tissues …

The effect of aging on human gastrocnemius medialis (GM) muscle architecture was
evaluated by comparing morphometric measurements on 14 young (aged 27–42 yr) and on …

Demographic change in industrialized countries produced an increase in the proportion of
elderly people in our society, resulting in specific healthcare challenges. One such …
