Background and objectivesPostoperative recurrence after percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic decompression (PTED) for degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS) remains a clinically relevant challenge, complicating pre...

Abstract Background Outcomes after curative-intent sarcoma surgery vary substantially and are incompletely explained by tumor-centered factors alone. Although CT-based body composition metrics provide objective host-rela...

BackgroundGlobal population aging is accelerating, and China faces a significant challenge with “aging before affluent.” The disabled older adults population in China is projected to reach 58 million by 2050. Early i...

Rhabdomyolysis is the rapid breakdown of skeletal muscle tissue due to injury to muscle tissue and can lead to acute renal failure in the case of underlying hypovolemia and acidosis. We present a case with nephrotic synd...

Abstract Myasthenia, a syndrome of impaired neuromuscular transmission, occurs as either an acquired or congenital condition. Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an acquired autoimmune disorder with autoantibodies against the neur...

Background: Osteoporosis has long been considered a disorder confined to bone tissue. Growing evidence now highlights its systemic origins, governed by intricate communication between multiple organs. The multi-organ-bon...

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of combining immunocastration and β-adrenergic agonists (β-AA) on blood metabolites and their correlations with performance and carcass traits of Nellore...

Among the reasons of childhood mortality, cancer is the leading cause ofdeath [1,2]. Of all paediatric cancers diagnosed, soft tissue sarcomas account for7%, of which approximately 50% are rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), with an...

BackgroundSarcopenia, an age-correlated decline in skeletal muscle mass and function, has been increasingly linked to ferroptosis, which is an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death driven by lipid peroxidation. Nev...

Abstract Background Idiopathic functional urinary outflow tract obstruction (iFUOTO) is an uncommon but life‐limiting disease whose etiology and clinical course of disease remain poorly understood. Objective Characteri...

OBJETIVO: Avaliar o efeito de um programa de exercício na massa gorda (MG), área de adiposidade visceral (AAV), massa muscular esquelética (MME) e índice de massa muscular esquelética (IMME) de mulheres pós-menopá...

Opuntia ficus-indica (OFI) is traditionally recognized for its antioxidant and health-promoting properties, yet evidence on the bioaccessibility, bioavailability, microbiota-related effects and mechanism of action of sta...

Abstract This study reports on Kudoa spp. (Myxozoa, Multivalvulida) from the fish species Lutjanus analis, Bagre marinus, Aspistor luniscutis and Lutjanus jocu, which were caught in Aracaju, state of Sergipe, Brazil. The...

The role of carnitine as a transport molecule to facilitate fatty acid metabolism and energy production has been studied extensively. Adequate carnitine levels are critical to normal function in tissues of the heart and ...

BackgroundThis study investigated whether manual therapy applied to tendon organs ameliorated neuromuscular dysfunction in rats with spasticity induced by upper motor neuron injury associated with spastic cerebral palsy,...

Aerobic exercise training can increase skeletal muscle mitochondrial content. Supine exercise training with legs above the heart potentially augments these increases. However, the impact of supine exercise training on mi...

Dermatomyositis (DM) is the nonsuppurative inflammation of the skeletal muscle with dermal rashes. One third of the cases have an overlapping connective tissue disease or malignancy may be accompanying in 10% of them. Sc...

Abstract Autophagy-linked organelle remodeling is essential for skeletal muscle differentiation and is closely linked to the metabolic environment. The ketone body 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) serves as an alternative energy ...

α-ketoglutarate （AKG），an intermediate of the tricarboxylic acid （TCA） cycle， serves as a key substrate for energy production from carbohydrate， lipid， and amino acid metabolites via the TCA cycle. It fun...

Abstract Case Description A 9‐year‐old Quarter Horse gelding was presented for lethargy, decreased appetite, polyuria and polydipsia (PU/PD), and severe muscle wasting suggestive of immune‐mediated myositis. Clinic...

The senescence of the neuro-skeletal muscle system is typified by a gradual deterioration in muscle mass, strength, neuromuscular efficacy, and cognitive capabilities, which is further exacerbated by metabolic dysregulat...

Abstract In this study, we described the morphological features and unusual presentations of hydatidosis, fasciolosis, and eosinophilic myositis caused by Sarcocystis species diagnosed at the slaughterhouse lines. Twenty...

OBJETIVO: avaliar por meio da fotogrametria as alterações posturais de mulheres com dor pélvica crônica. MÉTODOS: foram avaliadas 30 mulheres com queixa de dor pélvica crônica e 37 sem essa queixa, totalizando 67 ...

Embodied therapies such as movement therapy have shown promise in enhancing emotional regulation, cognitive engagement, and physical rehabilitation. However, scalable and personalized delivery of such interventions remai...
