We aim to evaluate the performance of a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) in predicting the presence or absence of sarcopenia using shear-wave elastography (SWE) and gray-scale ultrasonography (GSU) of rectus femoris muscle as an imaging bioma...
PURPOSE: Automatic muscle segmentation is critical for advancing our understanding of human physiology, biomechanics, and musculoskeletal pathologies, as it allows for timely exploration of large multi-dimensional image sets. Segmentation models are ...
The present study investigated the effects of a combined hot and hypoxic environment on muscle oxygenation during repeated 15-s maximal cycling sprints. In a single-blind, cross-over study, nine trained sprinters performed three 15-s maximal cycling ...
BACKGROUND: Stair climbing can be a challenging part of daily life and a limiting factor for social participation, in particular for patients after stroke. In order to promote motor relearning of stair climbing, different therapeutical measures can b...
OBJECTIVE: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is among the higher contributors to global disability. Despite its high prevalence, currently, there is no cure for this disease. Furthermore, the available diagnostic approaches have large precision errors and low...
BACKGROUND: Malnutrition, influenced by inflammation, is associated with muscle depletion and body composition changes. This study aimed to evaluate muscle mass and quality using Artificial Intelligence (AI)-enhanced ultrasonography in patients with ...
