Fiber type composition and maximum shortening velocity of muscles crossing the human shoulder

Fiber type composition and maximum shortening velocity of muscles crossing the human shoulder.

A study of the fiber type composition of fourteen muscles spanning the human glenohumeral joint was carried out with the purpose of determining the contribution of fiber types to overall muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) and to estimate the maximum shortening velocity (V(max)) of those muscles. Muscle biopsies were procured from 4 male cadavers (mean age 50) within 24 hr of death, snap frozen, ...

Morphometry of Macaca mulatta forelimb. II. Fiber-type composition in shoulder and elbow muscles.

The present study examined the fiber-type proportions of 22 muscles spanning the shoulder and/or elbow joints of three Macaca mulatta. Fibers were classified as one of three types: fast-glycolytic (FG), fast-oxidative-glycolytic (FOG), or slow-oxidative (SO). In most muscles, the FG fibers predominated, but proportions ranged from 25-67% in different muscles. SO fibers were less abundant except...

Mean Velocity of Fiber Shortening

Previously it was shown that left ventricular (LV) myocardial contractility can be assessed from the instantaneous relation between velocity of fiber shortening and maximum LV wall tension (VcF at max T). Such analysis is complex, requiring frame-by-frame correlation of LV dimensions with pressure, and a simpler approach was sought. In 50 patients the mean velocity of circumferential fiber shor...
