Indexing and Discoverability

Indexing improves the visibility of skeletal muscle research for clinicians, physiologists, and performance scientists. We prepare metadata to support discovery and consistent citation across platforms.

Coverage can vary by database and may update over time based on collection policies. For verification or reporting needs, contact the editorial office.

Metadata Health

  • Structured titles, keywords, and abstracts
  • Accurate author affiliations and identifiers
  • DOI registration and citation readiness

Discoverability Signals

  • Consistent subject tagging
  • Clear research domains and outcomes
  • Stable hosting and preservation

Metadata completeness and consistent terminology improve discoverability across research platforms.

Clarify recruitment and activation markers for the muscle populations studied.

Explain how muscle function outcomes were validated and replicated.

Summaries that connect molecular signals to functional performance strengthen impact.

Describe how confounders were handled in longitudinal training studies.

Discuss limitations related to cohort size or model specificity.

Explain how muscle fiber composition was measured and validated.

Report instrumentation settings for strength and power testing.

Describe adverse events or safety monitoring for interventions.

Provide baseline characteristics for all cohorts and subgroups.

Describe how missing data were handled in longitudinal analyses.

Describe how imaging regions of interest were selected.

Author Responsibilities

Authors should provide complete metadata and confirm funding statements to ensure accurate indexing records.

Any updates to article metadata after publication should be communicated promptly to maintain indexing accuracy.

Coverage can vary by database and may update over time as collection policies evolve.

Report exercise protocols with intensity, frequency, and duration details.

Document imaging settings for fiber typing and morphology assays.

Report statistical thresholds used for mechanistic or clinical outcome analysis.

Provide context for translational relevance to rehabilitation or sports medicine.

Document how muscle strength or endurance outcomes were standardized.

State how fatigue or recovery outcomes were defined and compared.

Include calibration routines for dynamometers or metabolic carts.

Explain how nutrition or supplementation variables were controlled.

Summarize how muscle architecture outcomes were quantified.

Clarify sample size calculations and power assumptions.
