YAP1‐Driven Pathogenic Fibro‐Adipogenic Progenitors Secrete IL‐6 and FGF21 to Mediate Muscle‐Bone Crosstalk and Promote Bone Loss

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fibro‐adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) in atrophic muscle undergo YAP1‐driven pathogenic activation, secreting IL‐6 and FGF21 as bone‐catabolic myokines that mediate muscle‐bone crosstalk and promote bone loss. Genetic or pharmacological targeting of this YAP1‐FAP‐myokine axis rescues skeletal deterioration, identifying FAP‐derived myokines as therapeutic

Comparative validation of serum creatinine- and cystatin C-based surrogate markers for skeletal muscle mass in patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease

Renal Replacement Therapy
Background Sarcopenia, characterized by reduced skeletal muscle mass (SMM) and diminished muscle strength and/or decreased physical activity, poses a significant morbidity and mortality risk in patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD ...

Sustainable Productivity Growth in Agriculture: The Role of Shifts in R&D Investments and Technology

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of the paper is to evaluate the long‐term prospects of sustainable productivity growth linked to plausible assumptions on public agricultural R&D investments as the key productivity driver. Second, it investigates the role of changing R&D focus from yield maximization to input saving technologies (fertilizers and pesticides). The

Limits of body composition assessment by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)

Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2019
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a safe, non-invasive and repeatable method of body composition assessment, based on diversified electrical conduction through the aqueous and fat compartment of the body.

Body water distribution and risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a healthy population: a prospective cohort study.

PLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundEarly alterations in the cardiovascular structure and function may change normal body water distribution. The resulting fluid shifts may thus serve as an early marker for cardiovascular disease.

Sex‐Based Body Composition Changes in Patients With Rectal Cancer Undergoing Preoperative Chemoradiotherapy: A Prospective Observational Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This prospective study observed that preoperative chemoradiotherapy for rectal cancer was associated with reductions in body fat and grip strength, which appeared to be more pronounced in female patients. These findings suggest that sex‐sensitive nutritional and exercise support may be beneficial to help maintain muscle mass and physical function ...
