The effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation on hospitalised adults: systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (2023)
Journal Article

Introduction Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is a treatment to prevent or reverse acquired disability in hospitalised adults. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of its effectiveness. Method We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cum...

Acute adaptation of central and peripheral motor unit features to exercise‐induced fatigue differs with concentric and eccentric loading (2023)
Journal Article

New Findings: What is the central question of this study? Conflicting evidence exists on motor unit (MU) firing rate in response to exercise‐induced fatigue, possibly due to the contraction modality used: Do MU properties adapt similarly following co...

Contrast‐enhanced ultrasound repeatability for the measurement of skeletal muscle microvascular blood flow (2023)
Journal Article

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) can be used to directly assess skeletal muscle perfusion. However, its repeatability over time has not yet been validated and therefore its use in longitudinal measures (i.e., exploring the impact of a chronic inte...
