  Coelho, M; Monteyne, A; Dunlop, M; et al. (Oxford University Press (OUP) for International Life Sciences Institute, 2019)

  The world’s population is rising, leading to an increased global requirement for dietary protein to support health and adaptation in various populations. Though a strong evidence base has accumulated to show the ...

• A longitudinal investigation into the relative age effect in an English professional football club: exploring the ‘underdog hypothesis’ 

  Kelly, AL; Wilson, MR; Gough, LA; et al. (Taylor and Francis (Routledge), 14 November 2019)

  Purpose: The relative age effect (RAE) refers to the bias influence of birthdate distribution, with athletes born later in the selection year being under-represented in talent development systems. However, the ‘underdog ...

• Short-Term Creatine Supplementation May Alleviate the Malnutrition-Inflammation Score and Lean Body Mass Loss in Hemodialysis Patients: A Pilot Randomized Placebo-Controlled Trial 

  Marini, ACB; Motobu, RD; Freitas, ATV; et al. (Wiley / American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 18 September 2019)

  Background Creatine supplementation has been proposed to alleviate muscle loss in various populations, but has not been investigated in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Thus, our objective was to evaluate whether creatine ...

• Short-term muscle disuse induces a rapid and sustained decline in daily myofibrillar protein synthesis rates 

  Kilroe, SP; Fulford, J; Holwerda, AM; et al. (American Physiological Society, 19 November 2019)

  Introduction: Short-term muscle disuse has been reported to lower both post-absorptive and post-prandial myofibrillar protein synthesis rates. This study assessed the impact of disuse on daily myofibrillar protein synthesis ...

• Temporal Muscle-Specific Disuse Atrophy during One Week of Leg Immobilization 

  Kilroe, SP; Fulford, J; Jackman, SR; et al. (Wolters Kluwer / American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), 1 November 2019)

  Purpose Musculoskeletal injuries necessitate periods of disuse (i.e. limb immobilization) during which rapid skeletal muscle atrophy occurs. The relative susceptibility of different muscles of the thigh to disuse atrophy ...
