Adaptive reaction to new conditions of functioning were studied morphofunctionally in an intestinal sphincteric apparatus formed by mm. gracilis, adductor longus, rectus femoris and semitendinosus in 100 experimental animals. It is established that reorganisation of vascular bed and muscular grafts mobilitive activity finishes up by 30th postoperative day and it is day 90 for morphological structures. Even at distant terms of the observation transplants preserve the structure of muscular tissue. Mm. gracilis and rectus femoris were established to be the preferable material in sphincteroplasties.

Background: Scalp reconstruction is a challenging field for plastic surgeons. In case of large or complex defects, microsurgical-free flaps are usually required. Reconstructive failure can result in high morbidity and in some cases be life-threatening.

Addressing quadriceps dysfunction is crucial to improve function, reduce the reinjury risk, and maintain long-term knee health. While deficits specific to the quadriceps are well documented, less is known about the effect of an ACL injury on other lower extremity muscle groups.

We explore the correlation between muscle viscoelasticity and displacement mechanomyography (DMMG) during passive joint movement. Current methods for assessing muscle viscoelasticity (which is essential for rehabilitation and sports conditioning) are limited in terms of simplicity, objectivity, and portability. We introduce a novel methodology employing DMMG during passive pedaling to evaluate these properties.

The effects of flywheel (FW) training on jump performance, muscle function, and muscle mass in athletes have not been fully clarified. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of an 8-week FW training program on jump performance, stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) function, muscle strength, peak power and muscle thickness in collegiate basketball players. Twenty male college basketball players (mean age: 19.
