Full textBackground: Acute hamstring strains are common injuries in different sports. They are often serious, causing long rehabilitation times and a proneness for re-injury. Preliminary observations indicate that the injuries can be of at least two types, one occurring during high-speed running and the other during motions where the hamstring muscles reach extreme lengths.
Aims: To investigate the possible existence of different types of acute hamstring strains in two specific athletic groups, namely sprinters and dancers, as well as the generality of these findings in other sports.
Methods: In the first project, 18 sprinters and 15 dancers with acute first time hamstring strains were prospectively included. All subjects were examined, clinically and with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), on 4 occasions after injury: at day 2-4, 10, 21 and 42. The follow-up period was 2 years. In the second project, 30 subjects from 21 different sports were prospectively included. All subjects were examined clinically and with MRI. The follow-up period lasted until the subjects returned to sport or finished their sport activity due to the injury.
Results: All sprinters sustained their injuries during competitive high-speed running. In contrast, all dancers encountered their injuries during slow-speed stretching type of exercises. The initial loss of strength and flexibility was significantly greater in sprinters than in dancers. At 42 days after injury, both groups could perform more than 90% of the test values of the uninjured leg. All the sprinters’ injuries were primarily located in biceps femoris long head, whereas the dancers’ injuries were mainly (87%) involving the proximal free tendon of semimembranosus. For the sprinters, involvement of the proximal free tendon, as estimated by MRI, and proximity to the ischial tuberosity, as estimated both by palpation and MRI, were associated with significantly longer time to return to pre-injury level. In the dancers, there were no significant correlations between clinical or MRI parameters and time to return to per-injury level. The time to pre-injury level was significantly longer (median 50 weeks, range 30-76) for the dancers compared to the sprinters (16, 6-50). In the second project, all injuries occurred during movements reaching a position with combined extensive hip flexion and knee extension. They were all located close to the ischial tuberosity and 83% involved the proximal free tendon of semimembranosus. Fourteen subjects (47%) decided to end their sport activity and for the remaining 16 subjects the median time back to sport was 31 (range 9-104) weeks. There were no significant correlations between clinical and MRI parameters and time to return to sport.
Conclusions: There seems to be a link between the injury situation and the two types of acute hamstring strain in sprinters and dancers with respect to clinical findings, injury location, muscles and tissues involved, and time to return to pre-injury level. Proximity of the injury to the ischial tuberosity, as estimated both by palpation and MRI, is associated with longer recovery time. Also in other sports, an injury situation where the hamstrings reach extensive lengths caused a specific injury to the proximal posterior thigh similar to that described in dancers. Due to the prolonged recovery time associated with this type of injury, correct diagnosis based on history, clinical and MRI investigation, and adequate information to the athletes are essential.

Full textMethod of treatment using hyperthermia in tumor therapy or questions in sports medicine related to the influence of intensive sport activities on different tissue, especially the question of health effects or threat because of the possibility of load induced hyperthermia, need practicable method to measure brain temperature during physical activity. The influence of physical strain on temperature change in differerent tissue, in brain and in muscle, at moderate temperature about 21° C examinated in the present paper. A viable method using MRS for measuring tissue temperature in muscle and brain during physical aktivity resp. directly after load is described. For examination of the influence of different physical load on the local tissue temperature in musculature 31P-MRS was applied. 21 healthy male test person have been examinated using 31P-MRS during aerobic load with 30 % MVC and anaerobic load under ischemia with 60 % MVC . The load, a especially desingned kick experiment, occured directly in the magnetic resonance tomographic unit. 1H-MRS was used for examination of load induced temperature change in brain. 14 healthy male test person were loaded on cycle-ergometer during 150-min without liquid substitute with 60 % individual anaerobic threshold. MR-spectra observed in three different Voice of Interest (VOI''s) sized 2 x 2 x 2 cm³: grey substance occipitoparietal, white substance partietal on the right and white substance parietal on the left.

We examined the relationship between grip strength declines and muscle-tendon responses induced by long-term performance of a high-repetition, low-force (HRLF) reaching task in rats. We hypothesized that grip strength declines would correlate with inflammation, fibrosis and degradation in flexor digitorum muscles and tendons. Grip strength declined after training, and further in weeks 18 and 24, in reach limbs of HRLF rats. Flexor digitorum tissues of reach limbs showed low-grade increases in inflammatory cytokines: IL-1beta after training and in week 18, IL-1alpha in week 18, TNF-alpha and IL-6 after training and in week 24, and IL-10 in week 24, with greater increases in tendons than muscles. Similar cytokine increases were detected in serum with HRLF: IL-1alpha and IL-10 in week 18, and TNF-alpha and IL-6 in week 24. Grip strength correlated inversely with IL-6 in muscles, tendons and serum, and TNF-alpha in muscles and serum. Four fibrogenic proteins, TGFB1, CTGF, PDGFab and PDGFbb, and hydroxyproline, a marker of collagen synthesis, increased in serum in HRLF weeks 18 or 24, concomitant with epitendon thickening, increased muscle and tendon TGFB1 and CTGF. A collagenolytic gelatinase, MMP2, increased by week 18 in serum, tendons and muscles of HRLF rats. Grip strength correlated inversely with TGFB1 in muscles, tendons and serum; with CTGF-immunoreactive fibroblasts in tendons; and with MMP2 in tendons and serum. Thus, motor declines correlated with low-grade systemic and musculotendinous inflammation throughout task performance, and increased fibrogenic and degradative proteins with prolonged task performance. Serum TNF-alpha, IL-6, TGFB1, CTGF and MMP2 may serve as serum biomarkers of work-related musculoskeletal disorders, although further studies in humans are needed.

Full textTemperature is important for muscle function. Muscle contraction and relaxation becomes quicker, development of power increasing as the temperature of the body raises. Immoderate temperature of the muscle, as a result, can decrease physical efficiency. Increased body temperature affects the nerve impulses, transmitted to brains, sweating level and also activates the blood circulation process. Hyperthermia is a limiting factor during the physical load on muscles. Large variations in temperature can cause changes in maximal voluntary force. High rectal temperature (higher than 40ºC) may negatively affect the central nervous system and the thermal emission of the body. Heating affects the skin and superficial layers of human body. Optimal temperature of water in which the muscle is placed during the study is about 45 ºC, because the higher temperature may cause the degradation processes of the proteins. Increased body temperature reduces the metabolism and the activity of the skeletal muscle, which causes the fatigue. Hypothesis: We think that the effect of passive hyperthermia increases the muscle resistance to the fatigue and the increase of the isometric strain. Objective of this research is to explore the effect of passive hyperthermia on women quadriceps adaptation to the isometric strain and cardiovascular system.

Full textSkeletal muscle injuries are among the most frequent causes of functional impairment in muscle tissue, affecting the life quality and are primarily responsible for the loss of rhythm in the case of training athletes. The skeletal muscle lesion most frequent are contusion and strain injury. Thus, developing therapies that mitigate and might accelerate the rehabilitation process of injured tissue are of great importance. For this reason, therapeutic applications of physical agents are gaining prominence, especially in sports medicine for the treatment of skeletal muscle injury, but do not have the mechanism of action fully understood. This study was performed in order to examine whether the modulation of oxidative stress could be an important factor involved in the beneficial effect of cryo and thermoterapy on strain gastrocnemius muscle injury. Adult male Wistar rats were submitted to a strain injury and treated with the therapeutic agents in an isolated or combined form. Strain damages caused an increase in muscle and blood oxidative damage. We suggest that this oxidative damage is possible related to the impairment of the muscle cells structure since that we observed a significant positive correlation among the increase in plasma Creatine Kinase levels and in muscle and blood Dichlorofluorescein oxidized and Thiobarbituric acid reactive substance levels. The inflammatory response intensity seems to be also an important factor involved in the genesis of the oxidative damage in the initial moments that follows the muscle strain injury. The therapeutic cold seems to be more effective to prevent the damage induced by the strain injury possible due to its capacity to control the muscle cells structure impairment and also to modulate the inflammatory response intensity that follows a muscle strain injury.
Lesões musculares esqueléticas estão entre as causas mais frequentes de comprometimento funcional do tecido muscular, acometendo a qualidade de vida e são as principais responsáveis pela perda do ritmo de treinamento no caso de atletas. As lesões mais frequentes são as contusões e distensões musculares. Assim, o desenvolvimento de terapias que amenizem e possam acelerar o processo de reparo celular e reabilitação tecidual são de grande importância. Desta forma, aplicações terapêuticas de agentes físicos estão ganhando destaque, principalmente na medicina desportiva, no tratamento de lesões musculares esquelética, porém, não apresentam o mecanismo de ação totalmente esclarecido. Este estudo foi realizado para examinar se a modulação do estresse oxidativo poderia ser um importante fator envolvido nos efeitos benéficos da crio e da termoterapia na injuria por distensão no músculo gastrocnemius. Ratos machos Wistar adultos foram submetidos à distensão muscular e tratados com agentes terapêuticos físicos, frio e calor, de forma isolada ou combinada. A lesão por distensão causou um aumento nos marcadores de dano oxidativo, tais como a formação de espécies reativas e peroxidação lipídica no músculo e no sangue. Nós sugerimos que este dano oxidativo é possivelmente relacionado a um prejuízo da estrutura da célula muscular, assim, observamos uma significante correlação positiva entre o aumento nos níveis plasmáticos de Creatina Quinase e no músculo e sangue níveis de Diclorofluoresceina oxidada e substâncias reativas ao ácido tiobarbitúrico. A intensidade da resposta inflamatória parece ser também um importante fator envolvido na gênese do dano oxidativo nos momentos iniciais a lesão. O frio terapêutico parece ser o mais efetivo em prevenir o dano induzido pela distensão muscular possivelmente devido a sua capacidade em modular os danos à estrutura da célula muscular e também a intensidade da resposta inflamatória que segue a injuria músculo esquelética.

Resumo: A técnica de strain-counterstrain (SCS) é uma das mais utilizadas no tratamento osteopático, proporcionando grande alívio dos sintomas desencadeados por pontos gatilhos miofasciais (PGM), porém poucas são as evidências científicas sobre seus efeitos imediatos e ao longo de um tratamento para pacientes sintomáticos. Este estudo objetivou avaliar os efeitos imediatos e tardios da SCS nos músculos mastigatórios de pacientes com disfunção temporomandibular (DTM). Para isso foram selecionadas 21 mulheres (25,52±4,11) diagnosticadas com DTM, as quais foram divididas aleatoriamente em dois grupos: grupo tratado (n=11) que recebeu a SCS para os PGMs dos músculos temporais, masseteres, pterigóideos mediais e digástricos; e grupo placebo (n=10) que recebeu uma técnica sem efeito terapêutico para os PGMs dos mesmos músculos. As voluntárias passaram por quatro sessões de tratamento, uma vez por semana e foram avaliadas antes (Pré), imediatamente após (Pós) a primeira sessão e de 48 a 72 horas após a quarta e última sessão (Final). Como método de avaliação utilizou-se o limiar de dor a pressão (LDP), amplitude de abertura bucal (AAB) e a eletromiografia de superfície (EMGs). O LDP foi coletado nos seguintes pontos: masseter, temporais e pólo lateral da articulação temporomandibular (ATM). A coleta do sinal eletromiográfico foi realizada nos seguintes músculos: masseteres, parte anterior dos temporais e supra-hioideos. Como resultado foi possível observar aumento do LDP entre as fases Pós e Final (p<0,05), e Pré e Final (p<0,05), e aumento da AAB entre as fases Pré e Pós (p<0,05), e Pré e Final (p<0,001) para o grupo tratado. Para o grupo placebo não foram observadas diferenças significativas, assim como para os resultados da EMGs em ambos os grupos
Abstract: Strain-counterstrain (SCS) is one of the most commonly technique used in osteopathic treatment, providing great relief of symptoms unleashed by myofascial trigger points (MTrPs). However there are few scientific evidence about its about its immediate effects and over a treatment for symptomatic patients. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of SCS in masticatory muscles of patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD). Twenty one TMD women (mean age 25.52 ± 4.11) were randomly divided in two groups: treated group (n = 11) which received the SCS for MTrPs of temporal, masseter, medial pyterigoid and digastric muscles; and placebo group (n = 10) which received a non therapeutic technique for MTrPs of the same muscles. The volunteers underwent four treatment sessions, once a week and were evaluated before (Pre), immediately after the first session (Post), and 48 to 72 hours after the fourth session (Final). Outcomes measurement were pressure pain threshold (PPT), range of mouth opening (RMO) and electromyography (EMG). The LDP was collected at points painful in these types of patients: masseter, temporal, lateral pole temporomandibular joint (TMJ). The collect of the sEMG signal was conducted in the following muscles: masseter, anterior part of the temporal and supra-hyoid. It was observed an increase of PPT between Post and Final (p <0.05) and Pre and Final (p <0.05) phases for most points assessed, an increase of RMO between Pre and Post (p <0.05), and Pre and Final (p <0.001) phases in the treated group. In placebo group no significant differences were observed as well as the results of EMG in both groups

Full textThis thesis provides a proof of concept for MR atrial strain, as well as MR relaxometry in the myocardium, in skeletal muscles and in the liver. Thanks to a close interaction between radiologist and software engineers, two different softwares were developed, applied and validated: one for multiorgan T1 mapping in the myocardium, skeletal muscle and liver, another one for cardiac four-chamber strain analysis and volumetry. The first publication showed a strong correlation of LA strain with the degree of fibro-fatty replacement in histology. Such functional imaging biomarker in combination with LA volumetry could help to guide clinical decisions, since myocardial structural remodeling is a known morphologic substrate of LA dysfunction, atrial fibrillation and adverse outcome. In the second publication, MR relaxometry parameters applied to the myocardium and skeletal muscles in IIM patients and healthy volunteers were used as a model to demonstrate influences of different tissue composition and vascularization on T1 mapping parameters. ΔT1 and EHF were introduced as simple alternatives to ECV in highly vascularized tissues such as the myocardium. In the third publication, MR relaxometry parameters applied to the skeletal muscls allowed for an accurate discrimination of AVM and IIM with cardiac involvement. However, when applied to the myocardium, parametric mapping did not separate between the two groups. The fourth publication introduced native T1 of the liver an easily accessible and accurate non-invasive imaging associate of congestive HF in IDCM patients with better performance than established functional parameters such as LV volumes, ejection fraction or strain
