Leg‐fidgeting versus standing breaks during prolonged sitting: Impacts on blood pressure and heart rate in young women

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this work was to examine whether leg‐fidgeting breaks during prolonged sitting could be a practical alternative to standing breaks in preventing blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) impairments. Young women (n = 16; age = 21.9 ± 3.0 years; body mass index = 21.1 ± 4.9 kg/m2) completed three 3‐h prolonged sitting conditions ...

Pole‐To‐Pole 3D Radial Trajectory Designs Improve Image Quality and Quantitative Parametric Mapping in the Brain and Heart

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 2627-2643, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose To design 3D radial spiral phyllotaxis trajectories aimed at removing phase inconsistencies, improving image quality, and enhancing parametric mapping accuracy by acquiring nearly opposing spokes starting from both hemispheres in 3D radial k‐space. Methods Two 3D radial trajectories, pole‐to‐pole and continuous spiral phyllotaxis, were
