T3, T4, TSH and myoglobin levels were determined in 14 patients with myasthenia gravis and compared with thirty one healthy control subjects. Significant decrease of myoglobin concentration and increase T3, T4 levels as compared to control group was found. TSH concentration was in normal range. Duration of myasthenia, level of disease (according to Osserman classification) and kind of therapy not influenced on detectable variations myoglobin, T3, T4 and TSH concentration.

Cold plasma has been considered a novel non-thermal processing technique and attracted a high attention by the food industry. In this study, the influences of dielectric barrier discharge cold plasma (DBD-CP) on the myoglobin (Mb)-added washed pork muscle (WPM) were evaluated. The electrophoresis pattern, autoxidation, and secondary structure of Mb were analyzed.

The fundamental objective of military field training exercises (FTX) is to prepare military personnel for real-life operations through simulated scenarios. These training sessions often require extreme physical efforts with prolonged, high-intensity exercises that can be combined with food restrictions and partial, or total, sleep deprivation. Such conditions can compromise an individual's physical performance and cause tissue damage, thus affecting their health.

Background: Hypothyroidism is frequent and has various forms of muscle involvement. We report the diagnosis and treatment of a case of rhabdomyolysis, bilateral osteofascial compartment syndrome (OCS) of the lower extremities, and peroneal nerve injury causing bilateral foot drop in a diabetic patient with hypothyroidism.
Case Presentation: A 66-year-old man with diabetes for 22 years was admitted because of drowsiness, tiredness, facial swelling, and limb twitching for 2 months, and red and swollen lower limb skin for 3 days.

Objective: Mechanically overloaded muscle and its subsequent damage are strong stimuli for eliciting acute hormonal changes, while the muscle adaptation which occurs following exercise-induced muscle damage may involve complex hormonal responses before the completion of muscle regeneration. The purpose of this study was to investigate systemic responses of various hormones, as well as secreted proteins that are exercise-regulated and associated with muscle adaptation, for several days after eccentric exercise-induced muscle damage in humans.
Design: Nine young male volunteers performed 50 maximal eccentric muscle actions using the knee extensor muscles of both legs.

Objectives: We studied the effect of a standardized breakfast or lunch before blood sampling on 77 analytes.
Design And Methods: The mean difference between assays from 20 healthy adults was calculated on blood samples taken before and after food intake. Significant differences were tested using two-tailed Student t-test and compared to the acceptable limits derived from analytical and intraindividual biological variation.
