The effects of tonic muscle pain on the sympathetic and somatic motor systems in humans
Mechanisms underlying the development of chronic muscle pain in humans remain unknown. Our current understanding is principally based on experimentation in animals, which has resulted in the formulation of a multitude of theories and physiological models to postulate these mechanisms in humans. The …

Accuracy of prediction of edurance running performance : relationship to training history, muscle pain and relative perception of effort
… between training factors, exercise-induced muscle damage, and fatigue. The accuracy of prediction of running performance allows for the consideration of the effects of teleoanticipatory factors such as pacing and prior experience on performance. However, previous studies have not adequately …

Subacromial Shoulder Pain: A Look at Acute Muscle Pain, Acute Relief of Chronic Pain, and an Electromyography Normalization Technique
Shoulder pain is a common orthopedic concern. The pain has a wide range of possible causes and may progress in a number of different manners. One large gap in knowledge is the specific pathway of a chronic condition resulting from an acute injury. The purpose of this dissertation was to begin to …

Accuracy of the prediction of Ironman performance : relationship to training history, muscle pain and relative perception of effort during, and recovery after the race
… Other studies have investigated levels of pain and relative perception of effort (RPE) and the athlete's ability to recover after endurance races... The aim of this thesis is to review the literture which discusses the background to the questions outlined above (Chapter 2), followed by a …

Resistance training and recovery: influence of dietary supplements, combined trreatment therapies, and gender
… to evaluate the influence of gender on skeletal muscle recovery following an exhaustive bout of resistance exercise. After establishing a baseline load that elicits temporary muscular failure after 8–12 repetitions, participants completed 3 sets to failure on two consecutive under treatment and …

Pain assessment and possible mechanism of delayed onset muscle soreness
Muscle pain is felt during exercise or daily activities for several days after performing unaccustomed exercise, which is referred to as delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). Many people experience DOMS, but its underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. One of the challenges in the …

Cardiorespiratory, kinematic, neuromuscular and metabolic characteristics during the recovery period after an ultramarathon race
… to investigate the effects of exercise-induced muscle damage caused by a 90 km ultramarathon on submaximal oxygen consumption and stride length. The experimental group consisted of 11 male runners (39.7 ± 9.3 years) competing in a 90 km ultramarathon. Ten male runners (41.0 ± 10.8 years) who did …

Effects of an offloaded running versus active recovery on performance after an ultramarathon-race
… and negative effects such as exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD). Various active recovery interventions have been explored to speed up recovery from events such as ultra-marathon runs. This includes offloaded recovery strategies such as deep water running (DWR). More recently, the use of an …

The effect of repeated bouts of downhill training on running performance and recovery after a 30-km time trial
… training phase, suggesting a HR training effect. Muscle pain and plasma CK activity in the downhill group increased after the first 40-minute downhill training run. These indicators of muscle damage did not show any further increases during the training phase, suggesting a "repeated bout effect". …

Exercise induced pain and damage in human skeletal muscle
Two types of dynamic muscle contractions have been compared to investigate their effects on muscle pain and damage in normal subjects. Damage was assessed by studying changes in isometric force generation, muscle enzyme loss, morphological changes and the patterns of radioisotope uptake. Delayed …

Nichtinvasive Erfassung elektrophysiologischer Parameter zur Beurteilung von Muskelermüdung unter isometrischen und dynamischen Kontraktionen
In the exploration of the mechanisms of chronical muscle pain, the assessment of neuro-muscular parameters of muscle fatigue under voluntary movement is of increasing importance. Therefor, a method allowing the non-invasive assessment of muscle fatigue under dynamic contractions (movement) was …

A comparison of muscle damage, soreness, morphology, T2 changes and running performance following an ultramarathon race
Background: Exercise induced muscle damage collectively describes the response to strenuous or unaccustomed exercise. It is well - established that endurance running causes muscle damage. Indirect indicators of muscle damage include the loss of muscle strength, increased levels of muscle proteins, …

The Effects of Whole Body Vibration on Muscle Recovery and Performance
Facilitating muscle recovery in trained individuals is essential, as it allows for a quicker return to activity without reduction in performance. Many proposed modalities have been studied but have not shown consistent effectiveness. A relatively new modality, whole-body vibration (WBV) has been …

Evaluation of Food Effects on the Oral Pharmacokinetics of Rosuvastatin
… adverse event noted with statin therapy is muscle pain/damage associated with high circulating statin levels, our findings have the potential to serve as a novel and simple strategy for mitigating statin myopathy risk.

Meta-Analysis of Open vs Closed Surgery of Mandibular Condyle Fractures
… deviation on opening, asymmetry, and joint pain or muscle pain. Several common statistical methods were used to test for differences between open and closed surgery, including the weighted average method for fixed and random effects as well as the Mantel-Haenszel method for fixed effects. …

Statin-induced muscle mitochondrial toxicity
… but can cause myopathy ranging from mild muscle pain to fatal rhabdomyolysis. The mechanism of statin-induced myopathy (SIM) is not fully understood and there is currently no convenient and reliable marker of SIM, but mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated. We sought to investigate …

The ergogenic effect of transcranial direct current stimulation on cycling time to exhaustion task performance in physically active people.
… whole-body dynamic exercise inevitably induces muscle fatigue, which leads to task failure. It is considered that the brain plays a key role during the regulation of endurance exercise performance. It is believed that exercise-induced muscle fatigue elicits a reduction in motor cortex …

Effects of Blood Flow Restriction Training on Healthy Individuals Using the (B)Strong Training System: A Randomized Controlled Trial
… and compare muscular fitness and subjective muscle pain between blood flow restriction (BFR) training using the (B)Strong Training System and traditional resistance training program after a 7-week intervention. Thirty-one healthy male and female young adults volunteered to participate. …

Differences in five kilometer time trial performance during the recovery period after an ultramarathon race
… studies have shown that exercise induced muscle damage has a negative influence on endurance running performance, and that these negative effects may be mediated by an increased perception of effort. There is a lack of evidence regarding the effects of ultramarathon distance races on …

Observing Renal Responses to Endurance Cycling in the Heat
… mass was assessed to determine net fluid loss, muscle damage in the legs was assessed with a pain scale, a urine sample was collected to analyze hydration status, and a blood sample was drawn. All measurements were taken pre- and post-event. Serum creatinine was measured by colorimetric assay …
