Longitudinal Changes in Adiposity After a Youth Sport‐Related Knee Injury: Informing Posttraumatic Osteoarthritis Prevention

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Youth who experience a sport‐related knee injury have elevated odds of becoming overweight or developing obesity in 3 to 10 years, compounding their risk for posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). To inform prevention strategies, this study compared patterns of adiposity change between youth with a sport‐related knee injury and uninjured youth ...

Cellular Responses to Mechanical Cues Across Scales: From Fundamental Insights to Translational Potential

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines how cellular behavior is regulated by mechanical cues transmitted through soft biomaterials, from single‐cell mechanosensing to tissue‐level adaptation. It highlights why physiological relevance, rather than model complexity alone, is critical for translational mechanobiology and introduces a scoring framework linking material ...

Treatment of Cheese Whey and Bioelectricity Generation in MFCs as Substitute Source of Energy in Wastewater

Journal of Bioresources and Environmental Sciences
Renewable energy is a primary energy source that naturally replenishes itself over time. It is derived from various large-scale sources, including ocean tides, sunlight, rainfall, wind, biomass, and geothermal heat generated deep within the Earth. In 2008, about 19% of global energy consumption came from renewable sources, with approximately 13% from ...

Exploring the Bioelectricity of Fruits as Sources for Sustainable and Renewable Energy

Bioelectricity
The ever-increasing annual consumption of electrical energy for daily activities will unavoidably harm the financial well-being of individuals. Nonetheless, the availability of fuel sources that generate electrical energy including fossil fuels, oil, and coal remains decreasing, which results in becoming scarcer than ever. Conversely, fruits are one of
