The additive effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation and resistance training on muscle mass and strength.
Eur J Appl Physiol
January 2025
Metabolic, Nutrition, and Exercise Research (MiNER) Laboratory, Department of Kinesiology, University of Texas at El Paso, 500 University Ave, El Paso, TX, 79968, USA.
Article Synopsis
- The study aims to compare the effectiveness of conventional resistance training (RT) versus a combination of resistance training and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (RT + NMES) in developing strength and muscle mass.
- Researchers conducted a meta-analysis of 13 randomized controlled trials, finding that RT + NMES resulted in greater strength and muscle mass gains compared to RT alone.
- The conclusion suggests that incorporating NMES into resistance training could enhance muscle strength and mass, and further research is encouraged to investigate its effects on metabolic and cardiovascular health.
Bromocriptine Versus Levodopa and other treatments in Parkinson's Disease: an updated Meta-analysis Involving more than 4000 patients across 12 randomized clinical trials.
Acta Neurol Belg
December 2024
Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Faculty of Medicine, Kurdistan University of Medical Sciences, Sanandaj, Iran.
Objectives: The purpose of this meta-analysis was to conduct a comparative study by systematically examining and analyzing trials that studied the impacts of levodopa and bromocriptine, either separately or together, in treating Parkinson's disease (PD).
Methods: An extensive literature search was conducted across PubMed (Medline), Scopus, and Web of Science databases, using targeted keywords for studies published up to October 2024. The methodological quality of included RCTs was assessed with the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 (RoB 2) tool, and bias evaluation was performed using RevMan (version 5).

Introduction: Cultural violence includes any offensive behavior regarding ethnicity, race, language, religion, and place of birth devaluing human dignity. The purpose of this study was to investigate workplace cultural violence against nurses by systematic review and meta-analysis.
Materials And Methods: The guideline of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) was followed.
Fatigue-induced changes in electromyographic activity after repeated racing turns: a pilot study.
Eur J Appl Physiol
December 2024
Inter-university Laboratory of Human Movement Sciences, Univ. Savoie Mont Blanc, EA 7424, 73000, Chambéry, France.
Purpose: Alpine skiing races are physically demanding events characterized by numerous repeated near-maximal activations of the lower limb muscles. Although this type of task is known to induce neuromuscular fatigue, electromyographic activity (EMG) adaptations after repeated maximal-intensity skiing have not been previously investigated.
Methods: Six skiers completed a 6-turns section with (FAT) and without performing 30 giant slalom (GS) turns (CONT).
A longitudinal study to COVID-19 infection among university students: Physical fitness changes and psychological responses.
J Exerc Sci Fit
January 2025
Faculty of Education, University of Macau, China.
Background: The impact of COVID-19 infection on physical and mental health of young adults remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the changes in the physical fitness three months after recovering from acute COVID-19 infection, and examine if the infection could also influence the mental health of university students.
Methods: A total of 460 university students (mean age 18.
