ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Children and adolescents with neuromuscular diseases often demonstrate muscle weakness and mobility limitations, which may increase perceived exertion during functional tasks. The OMNI scale was developed to assess perceived exertion in pediatric populations; however, its measurement properties in neuromuscular conditions ...

Reduced Phrenic CMAP Amplitudes in Obesity Despite Preserved Diaphragm Ultrasound Measures
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Phrenic nerve conduction studies (NCS) are regularly used in the evaluation of neuromuscular respiratory dysfunction; however, the impact of body mass index (BMI) on phrenic compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitudes remains poorly characterized. We evaluated the relationship between BMI and phrenic CMAP amplitudes in

Abstract Background Low‐carbohydrate diets (LCDs) are widely adopted for metabolic management, but their long‐term cardiometabolic effects in diverse populations remain unclear. We aimed to evaluate the association between self‐selected moderate LCD adherence and cardiometabolic parameters in individuals with and without diabetes.
