    Establishment of an animal model for delayed-onset muscle soreness after high-intensity eccentric exercise and its application for investigating the efficacy of low-load eccentric training

    Delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) occurs after unaccustomed exercise and is particularly associated with eccentric exercise. Previous studies have proposed the use of a single bout of eccentric exercise to ...

    Correlation of Glut-1 glucose transporter expression with [18F]FDG uptake in non-small cell lung cancer

    Positron emission tomography (PET) with [18F]2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) may show negative results for bronchioloalveolar lung carcinoma. We investigated the correlation of Glut-1 glucose transporter expres...
