Santos R, Valamatos M, Mil-Homens P, Armada-da-Silva P
Sports (Basel) . 2024 Aug; 12(8). PMID: 39195587
Supersonic shear image (SSI) ultrasound elastography provides a quantitative assessment of tissue stiffness using the velocity of shear waves. SSI's great potential has allowed researchers in fields like biomechanics and...

Mendonca G, Vila-Cha C, Teodosio C, Goncalves A, Freitas S, Mil-Homens P, et al.
Eur J Appl Physiol . 2021 May; 121(8):2305-2321. PMID: 33982187
Purpose: Determine whether unilateral low-intensity blood-flow restricted (LIBFR) exercise is as effective as high-intensity (HI) resistance training for improving contralateral muscle strength. Methods: Thirty healthy adults (20-30 years) were randomly...

Santos R, Valamatos M, Mil-Homens P, Armada-da-Silva P
Int J Environ Res Public Health . 2020 Jun; 17(12). PMID: 32570845
Ultrasound imaging allows the evaluation of musculoskeletal morphology and function. Ultrasound elastography can also offer semi-quantitative and/or quantitative assessment of tissue stiffness providing relevant information about adaptations of skeletal muscle...

Correia P, Santos P, Mil-Homens P, Gomes M, Dias A, Valamatos M
Eur J Sport Sci . 2020 Jan; 20(10):1405-1413. PMID: 31917646
Hamstring strain injuries (HSI) are the most common injury in male professional football and are potentially a primary risk factor to re-injury. Although the isokinetic strength ratios have often been...

Fatela P, Mendonca G, Veloso A, Avela J, Mil-Homens P
Int J Sports Med . 2019 Jul; 40(9):555-562. PMID: 31291650
We aimed to determine whether blood flow restriction (BFR) alters the characteristics of individual motor units during low-intensity (LI) exercise. Eight men (26.0±3.8 yrs) performed 5 sets of 15 knee...

Reis J, Fatela P, Mendonca G, Vaz J, Valamatos M, Infante J, et al.
Front Physiol . 2019 Apr; 10:407. PMID: 31031637
Blood flow restrictive (BFR) exercise elicits a localized hypoxic environment compatible with greater metabolic stress. We intended to compare the acute changes in muscle microvascular oxygenation following low-intensity knee extension...

Mendonca G, Teodosio C, Mouro M, Freitas S, Mil-Homens P, Pezarat-Correia P, et al.
J Clin Neurophysiol . 2019 Jan; 36(2):97-103. PMID: 30624286
Purpose: The V wave is an electrophysiologic variant of the H reflex that is evoked with supramaximal stimulus intensity. In this study, we explored whether the between-day reliability of V-wave...
