book describes Muscle Atrophy, Diagnosis and Treatment and Related Diseases</p><p>Muscle atrophy is the loss or wasting (thinning) of the muscle tissue.</p><p>If the patient has atrophied muscles, the patient will notice a decrease in the muscle mass and strength.</p><p>With muscle atrophy, the muscles appear smaller than normal.</p><p>Muscle atrophy may be caused by age, lack of use, or disease.</p><p>It can involve people at any age, including infants and the elderly.</p><p>Muscle atrophy can also happen in one part of the body while sparing other parts.</p><p>Muscle atrophy can happen due to malnutrition, age, genetics, muscle injury, reduced muscle activity, lack of physical activity or certain medical disorders.</p><p>1.Disuse or physiologic atrophy happens when the patient does not use the muscles enough.</p><p>The lack of physical activity for long period gives rise to muscle inactivity.</p><p>As a result, person is not able to do muscular movements, faces difficulty in muscle coordination, and loses muscle strength.</p><p>2.Neurogenic atrophy happens due to nerve problems or nerve diseases.</p><p>3.Pathologic atrophy happens due to aging, starvation, and medical disorders</p><p>Unused muscles can waste away if the person does not actively move the muscles.</p><p>This type of atrophy can often be reversed with exercise and improved nutrition.</p><p>Muscle atrophy can also result if the person is bedridden or unable to move certain body parts</p><p>Astronauts can develop muscle atrophy after a few days of weightlessness.</p><p>Other causes for muscle atrophy are:<br />Lack of physical activity for a prolonged period of time<br />Aging<br />Alcohol-linked myopathy<br />Burns<br />Injuries, such as a torn rotator cuff or broken bones<br />Malnutrition<br />Spinal cord or peripheral nerve injuries<br />Stroke<br />Long-term corticosteroid therapy</p><p>1.Neurological disorders are linked with neurogenic muscle atrophy.</p><p>The nerves of a muscle become damaged due to an injury.</p><p>Consequently, the transfer of signals from nerves to the brain does not happen.</p><p>Without signaling pathways, muscles do not contract.</p><p>The loss of muscle contraction will lead to the loss of muscle activity.</p><p>Neurogenic muscle atrophy is the major cause of muscle atrophy.</p><p>2.Age</p><p>With the increase in age, the muscle mass began to diminish due to the decline in the production of muscle protein.</p><p>The constant decrease in muscle protein produces muscle wasting.</p><p>3.Nutritional Deficiency</p><p>When there is any deficiency of proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals in the body intakes, it leads to malnutrition.</p><p>The nutritional deficiency is also accountable for muscle atrophy or muscle wasting.</p><p>All metabolic disorders are linked with weight loss and muscle mass loss.</p><p>4.Genetics</p><p>There are researches that indicated the cause of muscle atrophy is a kind of genetic disorder.</p><p>Mutation of the genes that code for muscle protein leads to the decrease of protein.</p><p>That results in muscle weakness and muscle atrophy.</p><p>5.Medical Disorders</p><p>Spinal cord atrophy,<br />Multiple sclerosis<br />Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis<br />Guillain-Barre syndrome<br />Diabetic neuropathy</p><p>Diagnosis is by</p><p>Blood test.<br />Muscle or nerve biopsy.<br />Electromyography (EMG)<br />Nerve conduction studies.<br />X-rays.<br />Computed tomography (CT) scan<br />Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan<br />PET scan</p><p>Frequent treatments for muscle atrophy are:</p><p>Medications<br />Physical Therapy<br />Ultrasound Therapy<br />Use of Accessories (Wheelchair, Braces, etc.)<br />Surgery<br />Dietary changes and supplement</p><p>TABLE OF CONTENT<br />Introduction<br />Chapter 1 Muscle Atrophy<br />Chapter 2 Cause<br />Chapter 3 Symptom<br />Chapter 4
