Q

What must be the physical relationship of actin to myosin for cross-bridges to form? How does this relationship affect the ability of the sarcomere to produce tension?

A

Overlapping

Must have an optimal length to work (z-lines can’t be too close or too far to work)

Q

Which way do myosin head groups pull on the actin during an eccentric contraction? What ultimately determines whether an active muscle does a concentric, isometric or eccentric contraction?

A

Q

What does the muscle look like when the parallel passive elastic elements are contributing most to the pull of that muscle on the tendon or bone?

A

Q

If you had prolonged muscle soreness of a muscle, the day after a workout. What type of muscle contraction would the muscle tolerate well?
Concentric high velocity or eccentric high velocity and why?

A

Concentric and high velocity

There is more tension during an eccentric contraction, so it wouldn’t make sense
Concentric produces less tension (because of Titin slack/tightening)

Eccentric exercise?

A

Slacks

Tenses (would overstretch without)

58
Q

Total tension when…
Muscle fiber lengthened beyond optimal length?
Muscle fiber shortened beyond optimal length?

A
  • reduces active tension (passive tension may increase because they are stretched aka will increase total tension)
  • reduces active tension (passive elements are slack aka total muscle tension is least in a shortening fiber)
59
Q

Why would you want to bend your knees/hips when you’re about to jump?

A

So the parallel elastic tissues are stretching creating more tension and contribute to force produced by active contraction of the sarcomeres

60
Q

Would the rotational velocity of a limb segment remain constant if a muscle was contracting with a constant number of motor units as a joint moves through its range of motion?

There would be the same amt of muscle tension applied over changing moment arms which would change torque production

More torque = more acceleration
Less torque = less acceleration

Sarcomeres have reduced potential for cross-bridge formation AND passive elastic components are slack

67
Q

Your patient is barely able to initiate abduction of his arm from his side because of weakness (can only abduct about 10°). What exercise might your patient be able to do to strengthen the abductors?

A

a. Passively position the shoulder in some abduction to improve the length-tension relationship and allow for greater cross-bridge formation. Then, ask for eccentric contraction as arm is lowered back to side at a fairly rapid pace. These conditions advantage the abductor muscles for improved tension production.
b. Exercise the abductor muscles in other motions for which they serve as synergists. For example, the deltoid is a prime move in abduction, but the anterior deltoid will also be active in flexion while the posterior deltoid will also be active in extension. The rotator cuff muscles participate in abduction, but will also be active in external rotation.
c. Perform shoulder abduction in gravity-eliminated supine or prone position

71
Q

Does the CNS get information from the muscle spindle during an active muscle contraction (when the muscle spindle is slack)?

A

Yes

99
Q

What kind of pain do C fibers transmit?

AD fibers?

A

Dull, throbbing, aching, burning, tingling, tapping

Sharp, stabbing, pricking

100
Q

Which type of pain fibers are reduced by opioids?

A

C fibers

101
Q

Which pain fibers have a fast transmition of APs?

A

A-D fibers

102
Q

Lateral spinothalamic

A

sharp pain, temperature
what might be touching?
where is it touching?

103
Q

Anterospinothalamic

A

relays affective information to limbic + somatosensory for an emotional response

104
Q

1) Paraesthesia
2) Dyesthesia
3) Hyperesthesia
4) Causalgia
5) Hypoesthesia
6) Allodynia

A

1) abnormal dermal sensation without cause
2) spontaneous unpleasant sensations
3) abnormal increase in sensitivity to sense
4) burning in limb from nerve damage
5) numbness
6) sensitivity to normally innocuous stimuli

105
Q

Phases of healing?

A

Injury > Inflammation > Proliferation > Maturation

106
Q

Phases of inflammation?

A

Vasoconstriction > vasodilation > clot formation > phagocytosis
(vascular response, hemostatic response, cellular response, immune response)

107
Q

What happens during the Vascular Response?

A

1) Vasoconstriction
2) Vasodilation of non-injured vessels
3) Slowing of blood flow
4) Margination, pavementing, emigration of leukocytes
5) Edema

108
Q

What is the fx of histamine in the inflammatory phase?

Hageman factor?

A
  • Causes vasodilation and contributes to edema by attracting leukocytes to area
  • activates clotting/coagulation to stop bleeding and increased permeability
109
Q

Where does edema occur during healing phases?

A

Inflammation stage

110
Q

What happens during the Hemostatic Response?

A

(Happens when vessel is damaged)

1) Sealing blood vessels
2) Platelets form clots and build a fibrin lattice

111
Q

What happens during the Cellular Response?

A

(Main fx is to deliver leukocytes to clear debris)

1) Neutrophils are the 1st responders and are important in first 24 hrs
- Clears site of debris by eating
- Promotes inflammatory response
2) RBC carry O2
3) Monocytes (Macrophages) are the biggest hero in healing
- produce chemicals that facilitate tissue removal
- enhances collagen deposition

112
Q

What happens during the Immune Response?

A

1) Mediated by humoral and cellular factors (b-cells and t-cells)
2) Increase vascular permeability, stimulate phagocytosis, chemotactic stimulus

113
Q

What’s the function of B-cells?

T-cells?

A

(Within adaptive immune response)

  • B cells: humoral, have antibodies and recognize antigens for binding
  • T cells: cause inflammation, kill cells or activate cells that kill, check and balance b cells
114
Q

What phase of injury is granulation tissue formed?

What type of collagen is it made of?

A

Proliferation phase

Starts as Type III but becomes Type I

115
Q

What phase of healing does infection impair?

A

Inflammatory

116
Q

When neutrophils die after digestion, become…

A

slough

117
Q

What phase of healing is a chronic wound stuck in?

A

proliferative

118
Q

What happens during the Proliferative Phase?

A

1) Collagen is produced in a weakened form (15% tensile strength) and creates Granulation Tissue
2) Fibroblasts produce GAGs and brings in more water
3) Neovascularization (creates new blood supply)

119
Q

What happens during Maturation Phase?

A

1) Restoration of prior function
2) ALL ABOUT COLLAGEN ORGANIZATION
3) Decrease in cells that were cleaning debris
4) Need some tension for final tissue structure

120
Q

Bioavailability

A

% of drug that reaches its target
