“…The decrease of motor activity is related to the weakness and the atrophy of the muscle (Miljkovic et al, 2015). Sarcopenia is one of the main characteristics of aging and, is characterized by loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength (Edstrom et al, 2007;Frontera and Ochala, 2015;Musumeci et al, 2015). The decline of the muscle strength was due to the progressive increase in the catabolism with a decrease in the anabolism, as well as the reduced regeneration capacity of the muscle (Musumeci et al, 2015).…”

The muscle reduced in size progressively, and muscle fibers were replaced by fat and fibrous tissue.…”

Aging, Antioxidants, Skeletal muscle.During aging, skeletal muscle is subjected to progressive loss of muscle mass and strength (sarcopenia) and a decline in the functional ability. The reduction in the antioxidative capacity of the skeletal muscle resulting in an abnormal accumulation of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) that is one of the possible causes of the decline in muscle performance. In this study the histological changes in the soleus muscles of male mice at the age of 1 st and 15 th old were examined and the activities of the antioxidant enzymes, CAT and SOD, non-enzymatic antioxidant GPH and MDA level were measured to clarify the age-related changes in healthy subjects. Results showed that there is a significant reduction (P ≤ 0.05) in the antioxidants SOD, CAT and GPH and there is a significant increase (P ≤ 0.05) in MDA level at the age of 15 th month when compared to 1 st month old. We concluded that the activities of the antioxidants were affected by aging. Moreover, there is age-related lipid peroxidation.

Aging causes loss of muscle strength, especially on the lower limbs, resulting in a higher risk of injuries during functional activities. To regain mobility and strength from injuries, physiotherapy prescribes rehabilitation exercise to assist the patients' recovery. In this article, the authors survey the existing work in exercise assessment and state identification which contributes to innovating the biofeedback for patient home guidance. The initial study on a machine-learning-based model is proposed to identify the 4-state motion of rehabilitation exercise using wearable sensors on the lower limbs. The study analyses the impact of the feature extracted from the sensor signals while classifying using the linear kernel of the support vector machine method. The evaluation results show that the method has an average accuracy of 95.83% using the raw sensor signal, which has more impact than the sensor fused Euler and joint angles in the state prediction model. This study will both enable real-time biofeedback and provide complementary support to clinical assessment and performance tracking.

Post-operative rehabilitation in osteoarthritis

Abstract: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative process involving the progressive loss of articular cartilage, synovial inflammation and structural changes to the subchondral bone that lead to loss of synovial joint structural features and impaired functionality of the articular cartilage.
