Effect of artificial gravity on calcaneal bone marrow adipose tissue and mineral content in female and male participants in 60 days of bed rest

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modulation of bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) with prolonged inactivity was reported in haemopoietic but not in non‐haemopoietic bones. This prospective randomized controlled trial submitted 16 men and 8 women to 60 days of 6° head‐down‐tilt bed rest.

Adult calcaneal osteitis: incidence, etiology, diagnostics and therapy

GMS Interdisciplinary Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery DGPW, 2012
Calcaneal osteomyelitis presents a complicated situation. The specific anatomy of the os calcis and its surrounding soft tissues plays an important role in the planning and realization of the procedures needed in order to eradicate the osteomyelitic ...

Effect of repeated hot water immersion on muscle strength, power, function and physical activity in healthy older adults: A randomised crossover trial

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing leads to an increased prevalence of sarcopenia and frailty, characterised by progressive declines in muscle strength, power and function and reduced physical activity. Hot water immersion (HWI) could potentially improve muscle function, but this is yet to be explored in older adults.

Plantar Heel Pain Is Not Associated With Fatty Infiltration of the Abductor Digiti Minimi Muscle on Magnetic Resonance Imaging: A Cross‐Sectional Observational Study

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Fatty infiltration, or fatty atrophy, of the abductor digiti minimi (ADM) muscle of the foot is proposed to be associated with entrapment of the first branch of the lateral plantar nerve (i.e., Baxter's neuropathy) as part of plantar heel pain (PHP). However, this association has not been rigorously investigated.

Effect of Long‐Term Non‐Weight Bearing on the Morphology and Function of the Heel Fat Pad

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background We aimed to investigate the effects of long‐term non‐weight‐bearing conditions, including prolonged bedridden states, on the morphology and function of the heel fat pad. Methods We recruited 13 elderly individuals bedridden for over 1 year (BR group) and 89 age‐matched healthy controls (CON group) living independently.

Uncommon Mechanism of Mangled Lower Limb Trauma: Case Report of Salvaged Leg Post Gear Box Explosion Injury

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Mangled limb injuries, typically caused by high‐energy trauma, present significant challenges in surgical decision‐making, particularly when considering limb salvage versus primary amputation. While common mechanisms include vehicular or industrial accidents, unconventional etiologies are rarely documented. We report a unique case of a 43‐year‐

Post Activation Potentiation Is Greater in Human Triceps Brachii Versus Triceps Surae Muscles

Muscle &Nerve, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 815-821, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Voluntary muscle contractions result in a temporary increase in twitch force, a phenomenon termed post activation potentiation (PAP). In rodents and other species, PAP is observed predominantly or exclusively in fast twitch muscles. However, it has been suggested that in humans, PAP occurs more or less independently of muscle

Prevention of bone mineral changes induced by bed rest: Modification by static compression simulating weight bearing, combined supplementation of oral calcium and phosphate, calcitonin injections, oscillating compression, the oral diophosphonatedisodium etidronate, and lower body negative pressure [PDF]

The phenomenon of calcium loss during bed rest was found to be analogous to the loss of bone material which occurs in the hypogravic environment of space flight. Ways of preventing this occurrence are investigated.

Morphological Evaluation of the Hip Joint and Pelvic Limb Bones of the Lowland Tapir (Tapirus terrestris Linnaeus, 1758) Using Radiography and Computed Tomography

Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The study aimed to characterize, through imaging examinations—including radiographs and computed tomography—the hip joint and the bones of the thigh, leg and feet in Lowland tapirs (Tapirus terrestris). Ten pelvic limbs were collected, two from juveniles and the remaining from adults. The femoral head exhibited a rounded morphology with a well‐
