SOMATOTYPE AND BODY COMPOSITION OF ELITE BRAZILIAN GYMNASTS

The main objective of this study was to analyze the somatotype and body composition of elite athletes in Brazilian artistic gymnastics, belonging to the junior and senior categories. Forty-six athletes were assessed, whereby 21 were from Ma...

Association of mitochondrial DNA polymorphisms and/or haplogroups with elite Japanese athlete status

A number of familial and twin studies have assessed the relative contribution of genetic and environmental factors to physical performance or its-related traits and have estimated that there is a significant genetic component to their pheno...

Predictivity of bioimpedance phase angle for incident disability in older adults

Abstract Background Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)‐derived phase angle is expected to be an efficient prognostic marker of health adverse events with aging as an alternative of muscle mass. We aimed to examine the predictive ability...

The Functional Role of Long Non-Coding RNA in Myogenesis and Skeletal Muscle Atrophy

Skeletal muscle is a pivotal organ in humans that maintains locomotion and homeostasis. Muscle atrophy caused by sarcopenia and cachexia, which results in reduced muscle mass and impaired skeletal muscle function, is a serious health condit...

A review of studies that used B mode ultrasound to estimate age-related changes in anterior thigh skeletal muscle thickness across the adult lifespan

Background: The purpose of this review was to synthesise and determine the age-related change per annum in muscle thickness of the anterior thigh across the adult lifespan. Methods: Electronic databases (PubMed, SPORTDiscus and MEDLINE) wer...

Features of the electrolyte distribution in various tissues in miniature pigs

Striking similarities between human and miniature pig anatomy and physiology of the cardiovascular system, skin and digestive organs have made miniature pigs a successful animal model for addressing problems of xenotransplantation. However,...

Metabolic perturbations underlying the associations of endocrine-disrupting chemical mixtures with muscle mass and strength in adults: A repeated-measures study

Introduction: Adult exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) may reduce muscle mass and strength; however, few studies considered EDC mixtures and their potential mechanisms. Objectives: We aimed to explore associations of EDC mixt...

Association between myosteatosis and impaired glucose metabolism: A deep learning whole‐body magnetic resonance imaging population phenotyping approach

Abstract Background There is increasing evidence that myosteatosis, which is currently not assessed in clinical routine, plays an important role in risk estimation in individuals with impaired glucose metabolism, as it is associated with th...
