Muscle, Skeletal - Physiopathology
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Muscle, Skeletal'A subtype of striated muscle, attached by TENDONS to the SKELETON. Skeletal muscles are innervated and their movement can be consciously controlled. They are also called voluntary muscles.

The role of CACNA1S in predisposition to malignant hyperthermia.
11 Oct 2009 
BACKGROUND: Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is an inherited pharmacogenetic disorder of skeletal muscle, characterised by an elevated calcium release from the skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. The dihydropyridine receptor (DHPR) plays an essential ... Read more...
29 Sep 2009 The objective of this study was to compare the sensitivity of needle electromyography of the abductor hallucis and peroneus tertius muscles in the diagnosis of mild length-dependent peripheral neuropathy (PN). Nerve conduction studies and needle ... Read more...
Elicitability of muscle cramps in different leg and foot muscles.
29 Sep 2009 To explore the efficacy of muscle motor point stimulation in eliciting muscle cramps, 11 subjects underwent eight sessions of electrical stimulation of the following muscles bilaterally: abductor hallucis flexor hallucis brevis, and both heads of ... Read more...
