Differences in mass-specific mitochondrial respiration among the different muscle groups. Mass-specific mitochondrial respiration among different muscle groups affected by a myofascial trigger point (m. gluteus medius and m. trapezius) and the unaffected control muscle (m. vastus lateralis) after initiating mitochondrial leak state without adenylates (LN), complex I-supported oxidative phosphorylation capacity (CIP), complex I-supported electron transfer capacity (ETC) of CI (CIE), maximal ETC of CI and CII (CI + IIE) and ETC of CII (CIIE). Abbreviations: TrP M. glut. Med. = musculus gluteus medius trigger point; TrP M. trapezius = musculus trapezius trigger point; CTR M. vast. Lat. = musculus vastus lateralis control muscle; see Fig. 1 for additional abbreviations
