Objective We performed a systematic review, meta-analysis and meta-regression to
determine if dietary protein supplementation augments resistance exercise training (RET) …

Preservation of aerobic fitness and skeletal muscle strength through exercise training can
ameliorate metabolic dysfunction and prevent chronic disease. These benefits are mediated …

Background. Adequate protein ingestion-mediated stimulation of myofibrillar protein
synthesis (MPS) is required to maintain skeletal muscle mass. It is currently unknown what …

Weight loss is the cornerstone of therapy for people with obesity because it can ameliorate
or completely resolve the metabolic risk factors for diabetes, coronary artery disease, and …

Abstract Background Oxidative stress (OxS) and mitochondrial dysfunction are implicated as
causative factors for aging. Older adults (OAs) have an increased prevalence of elevated …

Opinion on the role of protein in promoting athletic performance is divided along the lines of
how much aerobic-based versus resistance-based activity the athlete undertakes. Athletes …

Critical illness polyneuropathies (CIP) and myopathies (CIM) are common complications of
critical illness. Several weakness syndromes are summarized under the term intensive care …

Prolonged periods of skeletal muscle inactivity or mechanical unloading (bed rest, hindlimb
unloading, immobilization, spaceflight and reduced step) can result in a significant loss of …

The first edition of the Textbook of Medical Physiology was written by Arthur C. Guyton
almost 50 years ago. Unlike many major medical textbooks, which often have 20 or more …

This study was designed to compare the acute response of mixed muscle protein synthesis
(MPS) to rapidly (ie, whey hydrolysate and soy) and slowly (ie, micellar casein) digested …
