Cell populations and muscle fiber morphology associated with acute and chronic muscle degeneration in lumbar spine pathology

Abstract Many chronic musculoskeletal conditions are associated with loss of muscle volume and quality, resulting in functional decline. While atrophy has long been implicated as the mechanism of muscle loss in these conditions, recent evidence has emerged demonstrating a degenerative phenotype of m...
