Despite the demonstration of length adaptation [ 1 2 3 4 6 ] and fatigue resistance [ 2 3 6 ] in the diaphragms of emphysematous hamsters, not until very recently could a change in fiber type distribution be demonstrated [ 10 ] , and in that study histochemical classification was employed that could not separate out IIx from IIb fibers.
