The relationship between muscle quality and incidence of falls in older community-dwelling women: An 18-month follow-up study
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Experimental Gerontology"
DOI: 10.1016/j.exger.2018.06.018
Abstract: Introduction: Important components that might mediate the relationship between aging and falls are reduced muscle strength and mass. Although muscle‐related phenotypes have been linked to falls in older people, the role of muscle quality has… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/bph.14460
Abstract: Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), caused by dystrophin deficiency, results in chronic inflammation and irreversible skeletal muscle degeneration. Moreover, the associated impairment of autophagy greatly contributes to the aggravation of muscle damage. We explored the possibility… read more here.
