Extreme or unaccustomed eccentric exercise can cause exercise-induced muscle damage,
characterized by structural changes involving sarcomere, cytoskeletal, and membrane …

Objective: Infrared thermography (IRT) is a non-invasive, contactless and low-cost
technology that allows recording of the radiating energy that is released from a body …

Skin temperature responses have been advocated to indicate exercise-induced muscle
soreness and recovery status. While the evidence is contradictory, we hypothesize that the …

Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) indicates the presence of muscle damage and
impairs force production and control. Monitorization of DOMS is useful to improving recovery …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between tools commonly used in the
detection of physiological changes, such as clinical complaints, a biochemical marker of …

Infrared thermography (IRT) has gained popularity in sports medicine for determining
whether changes in skin temperature relate to pain and muscle damage. Such a relationship …

Infrared thermography (IRT) has become popular in several areas of knowledge. However,
the analyses of thermal images often request manual actions, and little is known about the …

There are controversial results in the literature concerning the concept that cumulative
training load could affect basal skin temperature in the days following training sessions. The …

Context: Although skin-temperature assessment has received much attention in recent years
as a possible internal-load measurement, scientific evidence is scarce. Purpose: To analyze …

Introduction Acute musculoskeletal injuries have diverse symptomatology and a
multidimensional recovery process, including changes in swelling, redness, hyperalgesia …
