Evaluating optimal rehabilitation strategies in ICU: study protocol for a multicentre cohort study to assess Physical Activity dosing, Muscle mass, and physICal outcomeS (IPAMICS study).

Background: Many patients who get discharged from the intensive care unit experience physical dysfunction that persists even after discharge. Physical dysfunction is associated with skeletal muscle atrophy and accompanying intensive care unit-acquired weakness in the early stages of intensive care unit admission, and early diagnosis and prevention with early mobilization are crucial. However, the amount of physical activity required for early mobilization remains controversial in critically ill patients.

Traumatic peripheral nerve injuries represent a spectrum of conditions and remain challenging to diagnose and prognosticate. High-resolution ultrasonography and magnetic resonance neurography have emerged as useful diagnostic modalities in the evaluation of traumatic peripheral nerve and brachial plexus injuries. Ultrasonography is noninvasive, is able to rapidly interrogate large areas and multiple nerves, allows for a dynamic assessment of nerves and their surrounding anatomy, and is cost-effective.

Objectives: To compare the thickness and function of the quadriceps muscle in subjects with and without patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) by ultrasonography.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with PFPS were included in the study. To measure the thickness of the rectus femoris (RF), vastus medialis longus and oblique (VML, VMO), vastus lateralis (VL) and vastus intermedius (VI), the ultrasonography was employed in rest and normal contraction modes and also the % rest-thickness normal as muscle function.
M-mode ultrasound evaluation of lateral abdominal muscle postural response to load: an exploratory study.

Aim: There is a need to evaluate the tissue deformation index of lateral abdominal muscles using M-mode ultrasound in a cohort of healthy subjects to establish a convenient reference point for clinical reasoning in patients. The aim of the study was to assess differences in the tissue deformation index between individual lateral abdominal muscles regardless of body side, compare these differences in the tissue deformation index on the right and left sides of the body, and evaluate side-to-side differences in the tissue deformation index within individual lateral abdominal muscles.
Material And Methods: In a group of 126 healthy volunteers (59 females), the postural response of lateral abdominal muscles to external perturbation in the form of rapid arm abduction with load was recorded on both sides of the body, and the tissue deformation index was calculated.
Pseudo-Sciatica Pain Due to a Biceps Femoris Muscle Tear.

Hamstring injuries (HSIs) are common among athletes, particularly in high-speed sports, and are frequently associated with prolonged recovery periods and a high recurrence rate. This study presents a 36-year-old male with sciatica-like symptoms following an acute hamstring tear during an amateur football match. The patient experienced this pain two weeks after the injury, suggesting potential sciatic nerve involvement.
