Enhancing Skeletal Muscle Rehabilitation: The Effects of Diclofenac Phonophoresis and Shock Wave Therapy on Serum Creatine Kinase in Athletes With Delayed-Onset Muscle Soreness.

Background Delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) is a common condition in athletes characterized by muscle pain and stiffness after intense or unfamiliar exercise. It significantly impairs an athlete's performance by reducing muscle strength, flexibility, and overall physical capacity, often leading to suboptimal training or competition outcomes. Managing and mitigating DOMS is crucial for athletes to maintain peak performance and prevent potential injuries.

Effects of Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) on Skeletal System Development: A Review.

Introduction: Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are exogenous substances that alter endocrine function and cause adverse effects on an organism. EDC interference with the endocrine system leads to chronic autoimmune disorders, abnormal osteogenesis, infertility, and reproductive, neurological, cardiovascular, and metabolic disorders. Among the adverse effects of EDCs are their impact on developing fetuses and neonates.

Effect of chlorpyrifos and its metabolites on skeletal system development of chick embryo.

Research Focus: Chlorpyrifos is an organophosphate insecticide used primarily to control pests on a variety of food and feed crops. Humans are directly or indirectly exposed to this pesticide through food, air, and occupation. The ill effects of chlorpyrifos on various organ systems of human has been widely documented, but less is known about its influence on human bones.
