Abstract: We investigated the agreement and accuracy of manual editing of the high-density electromyogram (hdEMG) decomposition results by seven human operators with various experience levels. All ...

This project is an upgraded version of my previous design, a highly compact and robust animatronic eye mechanism which uses 3D printed components and an Arduino microcontroller. If you are able to get ...

The brain and skeletal muscle have a high energy demand, of which creatine is an important regulator. Creatine acts as both a spatial and temporal energy buffer and reduces oxidative stress and ...

The contractile responses of esophageal smooth muscle (SM) induced by platelet-activating factor (PAF) involve the activation of L-type voltage-dependent calcium channels (L-type VDCCs), ...

Dehydration may be one cause of muscle cramps, and some evidence suggests that electrolyte imbalances also contribute to them. Muscle cramps are painful, involuntary contractions of the muscles that ...

Repurposing existing therapies may help slow muscle weakness in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a new study suggests. Newly discovered mechanisms associated with chronic muscle inflammation ...

FUNABASHI, Japan — Something hiding in everyday foods like rice, wheat, apples, and coffee could potentially help protect your heart from dangerous spasms. Scientists from Japan have found that ...

An international group of scientists has identified a key molecular process that drives a deadly form of childhood brain cancer, potentially offering a much-needed, new therapeutic target. Published ...

Article subjects are automatically applied from the ACS Subject Taxonomy and describe the scientific concepts and themes of the article. Postmenopausal osteoporosis generally occurs within 5–10 years ...

The findings could have implications for robotics, prosthetics and energy efficient machines. John McGrath and José Alvarado with HillBot, a robot designed to test parameters of muscle strength and ...
