AI Article Synopsis
- - A mechanical model of the human lower limb's skeletal muscle is created using the Hill muscle model and movement kinetics based on muscle attachment points.
- - The study analyzes gait changes and muscle stress during walking, focusing on energy consumption as the main factor.
- - Simulation results align well with real walking data, confirming the model's accuracy and the effectiveness of the muscle tension control behavior.
Article Abstract
In this paper, a mechanical model of the skeletal muscle of human lower limb system is established by using the Hill muscle model and kinetic equation of the movement of lower extremities according to the attachment positions of skeletal muscle. State vector and neural control are delineated by the direct configuration method. Changes of gait and skeletal muscle stress during walking process are analyzed with energy consumption as objective function. Results illustrate that simulation data are in good agreement with actual walking gait data. Feasibility and correctness of the designed model and control behavior of skeletal muscle tension structure are also verified.

The frequent poor functional outcomes after delayed surgical repair of injured human peripheral nerves results in progressive downregulation of growth-associated genes in parallel with reduced neuronal regenerative capacity under each of the experimental conditions of chronic axotomy of neurones that remain without target contact, chronic distal nerve stump denervation, and chronic muscle denervation. Brief (1 h) low-frequency (20 Hz) electrical stimulation (ES) accelerates the outgrowth of regenerating axons across the surgical site of microsurgical repair of a transected nerve. Exercise programmes also promote nerve regeneration with the combination of ES and exercise being the most effective.

Knee osteoarthritis contributes substantially to worldwide disability. Post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) develops secondary to joint injury, such as ligament rupture, and there is increasing evidence suggesting a key role for inflammation in the aetiology of PTOA and associated functional deficits. Colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1-R) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of musculoskeletal degeneration following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.

Objective: Drug resistance and subsequent adverse effects, such as cancer cachexia, limit the clinical use of cisplatin. Oligonol® (Olg), a low-molecular-weight polyphenol, exhibits NF-κB inhibitory properties. NF-κB activation has been implicated in cisplatin resistance of cancer cells and skeletal muscle wasting.
