The majority of middle-aged adults consumed alcohol at a low to moderate level. However, there is heterogeneity in alcohol use patterns, and a significant minority reported at-risk levels of alcohol use and HED.
Our data reveal that clenbuterol-induced skeletal muscle hypertrophy is unable to mimic the beneficial clinical effects of increased musculature derived through targeted strength training in humans, in a rodent model of MNX-induced OA. In addition we observed fibre-type switching to "slow twitch" in the quadriceps muscle during the induction of OA that warrants further investigation as to its relationship to joint stability.
