Mild hyperbaric oxygen enhances recovery of the plantaris muscle atrophy induced by cast immobilization of the hindlimb in male rats

Abstract Loss of muscle mass is associated with muscle functional decline and mortality. The present study aimed to determine whether exposure to mild hyperbaric oxygen (MHO) during and after casting immobilization reduces muscle atrophy. We distributed eight‐week‐old rats into control (CON), cast i...
