Velocity recovery cycles of human muscle action potentials in chronic renal failure

To test the hypothesis that muscle fibers are depolarized in patients with chronic renal failure, by measuring velocity recovery cycles of muscle action potentials as indicators of muscle membrane potential.

Muscle membrane dysfunction in critical illness myopathy assessed by velocity recovery cycles

To test the hypothesis that muscle fibers are depolarized in patients with critical illness myopathy by measuring velocity recovery cycles (VRCs) of muscle action potentials.

Muscle ischaemia in patients with orthostatic hypotension assessed by velocity recovery cycles

Patients with orthostatic hypotension may experience neck pain radiating to the occipital region of the skull and the shoulders while standing (so-called coat-hanger ache). This study assessed muscle membrane potential in the trapezius muscle of patients with orthostatic hypotension and healthy subjects during head-up tilt (HUT), by measuring velocity recovery cycles (VRCs) of muscle action potentials as an indicator of muscle membrane potential.

Velocity recovery cycles of human muscle action potentials: Repeatability and variability

Velocity recovery cycles (VRCs) of human muscle action potentials have been proposed as a new technique for assessing muscle membrane function in myopathies. This study was undertaken to determine the variability and repeatability of VRC measures such as supernormality, to help guide future clinical use of the method.

Differential efficacy of three cycles of CMF followed by tamoxifen in patients with ER-positive and ER-negative tumors: long-term follow up on IBCSG Trial IX

The benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy in postmenopausal patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive lymph node-negative breast cancer is being reassessed.

Muscle velocity recovery cycles: effects of repetitive stimulation on two muscles

We sought to characterize the excitability properties of tibialis anterior (TA) and brachioradialis (BR) muscles at rest and during electrically induced muscle activation in normal subjects.

Temperature dependency of human muscle velocity recovery cycles

Velocity recovery cycles (VRCs) of human muscle action potentials have been proposed as a new technique for studying muscle membrane function. This study was undertaken to determine the temperature dependency of VRC parameters.

Membrane dysfunction in Andersen-Tawil syndrome assessed by velocity recovery cycles

Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) due to Kir2.1mutations typically manifests as periodic paralysis, cardiac arrhythmias and developmental abnormalities but is often difficult to diagnose clinically. This study was undertaken to determine whether sarcolemmal dysfunction could be identified with muscle velocity recovery cycles (MVRCs).

Validity of multi-fiber muscle velocity recovery cycles recorded at a single site using submaximal stimuli

To examine the validity of multi-fiber muscle velocity recovery cycles (VRCs) recorded by direct muscle stimulation with submaximal stimuli.
