Key result
Electrical stimulation with occluded blood circulation increased glycogenolytic and glucolytic rates by about 30% during a second contraction compared with the first (P<0.05).

How does blood circulation occlusion affect glycogenolytic and glucolytic rates during electrical stimulation in human skeletal muscle?
p-value: p=<0.05
Increased glycogenolytic and glucolytic rates during repeated muscle contractions with occluded circulation are driven by high inorganic phosphate and low phosphocreatine levels.
Ren et al. (1988) studied this question. Electrical stimulation with occluded blood circulation vs. Electrical stimulation with intact blood circulation was evaluated on Glycogenolytic and glucolytic rates (p=<0.05). Electrical stimulation with occluded blood circulation increased glycogenolytic and glucolytic rates by about 30% during a second contraction compared with the first (P<0.05).
