在瑞士巴塞尔举行的第一届国际生理学家大会上,意大利生理学家安杰洛·莫索(Angelo Mosso,1846-1910)讨论了他关于肌肉疲劳的发现,同时演示了一个功测仪(工作记录仪)的功能。116年后,莫索的职业生涯、科学成就和在肌肉疲劳研究方面的遗产在2005年国际生理科学大会上得到了纪念。在1870年从意大利的都灵获得医学和外科学位后,Mosso能够与著名的生理学家Wilhelm Ludwig,Du Bois-Reymond,Hugo Kronecker和Etienne Marey一起学习和交流。到1879年,他是都灵大学的生理学教授,在那里他进行了有关血液循环,呼吸,体育,高海拔生理学和肌肉疲劳的研究。通过使用测力计(中指屈肌在意志刺激或电刺激下的同心收缩)的描记,他能够描述肌肉疲劳的特征,并将其发生与中枢或外周影响联系起来。他证明,运动会增加肌肉力量和耐力,同时延长疲劳的发生,他假设这是一个化学过程,涉及生产有毒物质,如碳酸。他描述了挛缩的现象,他的集体研究导致了有关疲劳的法律的制定和1891年La Fatica(疲劳)的出版。除了拉法蒂卡,莫索将被记住作为一个科学家与生理学的爱,关心他的同胞的社会福利,并作为一个谁试图整合生理学,哲学和心理学概念在他的实验研究。
At the first International Congress of Physiologists in Basel, Switzerland, the Italian physiologist Angelo Mosso (1846-1910) discussed his findings on muscular fatigue while demonstrating the functioning of an ergograph (work recorder). One hundred sixteen years later, Mosso's career, scientific accomplishments, and legacy in the study of muscular fatigue were commemorated at the 2005 International Congress of Physiological Sciences. After receiving his degree in Medicine and Surgery from Turin, Italy, in 1870, Mosso was able to study and interact with renowned physiologists as Wilhelm Ludwig, Du Bois-Reymond, Hugo Kronecker, and Etienne Marey. By 1879, he was Professor of Physiology at the University in Turin, where he conducted research pertaining to blood circulation, respiration, physical education, high-altitude physiology, and muscular fatigue. Using tracings from the ergograph (concentric contractions of the flexor muscles of the middle finger that were volitionally or electrically stimulated), he was able to characterize muscle fatigue and to associate its occurrence with central or peripheral influences. He demonstrated that exercise would increase muscular strength and endurance while prolonging the occurrence of fatigue, which he postulated was a chemical process that involved the production of toxic substances such as carbonic acid. The phenomenon of contracture was described, and his collective studies led to the formulation of laws pertaining to exhaustion and to the 1891 publication of La Fatica (Fatigue). Besides La Fatica, Mosso will be remembered as a scientist with a love for physiology, a concern for the social welfare of his countrymen, and as one who sought to integrate physiological, philosophical, and psychological concepts in his experimental studies.
