Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the study of muscles, including their structure, function, and health across various conditions. Research investigates muscle segmentation using imaging techniques, mitochondrial stress responses in skeletal muscle, muscle wasting associated with diseases like inflammatory bowel disease, and the impact of interventions such as acupuncture, dry needling, and exercise on musculoskeletal pain and performance. The journal also covers muscle strength, endurance, contractile properties, and adaptations to training, disuse, or injury, as well as conditions like sarcopenia, centronuclear myopathy, and Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
