Type-specific fiber changes in morphometry by age. Deltoid muscle analysis of type-specific fiber morphometric parameters across different age groups. Each point reflects the LSmean ± SEM (n = 57). Averages of each sample were used for the analysis of covariance (two-way ANCOVA) of a cross-sectional area, b perimeter, and c major and d minor diameters which were analyzed. Within a fiber population, means with that have no superscript in common are statistically different across age groups (Tukey-Kramer test, p < 0.05)
