Effects of Eccentric Contractions Induced Electrical Stimulation Training System on Quadriceps Femoris Muscle
... Eccentric contractions were induced at an angular velocity of 30˚/sec as de- scribed previously [18]. In this study, we set stimulated time at 1 second. It has been suggested that quadriceps femoris muscle ...

The Effect of High-Intensity Interval Training and Continuous Training on the Desnutrin Gene Expression in the Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue and the Quadriceps Femoris Muscle Tissue of Obese Male Rats
... According to the importance of desnutrin in fat metabolism, research literature shows that there is an inverse relationship between desnutrin, obesity, and diabetes. In addition, many studies on the effect of exercise ...

Estimation of quadriceps femoris muscle dysfunction in the early period after surgery of the knee joint using shear wave elastography
... However, the measurement of these indexes is difficult in the early postsurgical period because of the limited range of motion and activity limitations. For example, patients are often instructed to restrict knee joint ...

Anatomical cross-sectional area of the quadriceps femoris and sit-to-stand test score in middle-aged and elderly population: development of a predictive equation
... It is well known that strength of skeletal muscle decreases with aging [1, 2], prominently in the quadriceps femoris (QF) [3, 4]. The decline in knee extension torque in the elderly population can ...

Resting and active motor thresholds versus stimulus–response curves to determine transcranial magnetic stimulation intensity in quadriceps femoris
... There was no difference in selected stimulus intensity between muscles as determined by any method. This suggests that one muscle could be used as a surrogate for other quadriceps muscles. RF alone has frequently ...
