Narrative reconstruction of the self: Living funerals as rituals of trauma and transformation

The Australian Journal of Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract Living funerals mark a radical reconfiguration of contemporary engagements with mortality, transforming death from an imposed ending into an actively authored narrative. This study examines the practice in Hong Kong's hybrid sociocultural landscape, where traditional Chinese death rituals collide with neoliberal selfhood and globalised ...

Comparison of conjunctival pedicle flap to corneal fixation strength achieved by Tisseel® fibrin glue, ethyl cyanoacrylate adhesive, ReSure® hydrogel sealant, and conventional suturing with 8‐0 VICRYL® ophthalmic suture

Veterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 253-263, March 2025.
Abstract Objective To determine and compare the fixation strength of conjunctival pedicle flaps to cornea achieved via conventional ophthalmic suture and three different adhesive compounds. Animals Studied Ex vivo porcine globes. Procedures Following a 6 mm wide 500‐micron‐restricted depth lamellar keratectomy, conjunctival pedicle flaps were secured ...

Blood flow restriction: The acute effects of body tilting and reduced gravity analogues on limb occlusion pressure

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Blood flow restriction (BFR) has been identified as a potential countermeasure to mitigate physiological deconditioning during spaceflight. Guidelines recommend that tourniquet pressure be prescribed relative to limb occlusion pressure (LOP); however, it is unclear whether body tilting or reduced gravity analogues influence LOP.

Jumping on the moon as a potential exercise countermeasure

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Moon's gravitational field strength (17% Earth's gravity) may facilitate the use of bodyweight jumping as an exercise countermeasure against musculoskeletal and cardiovascular deconditioning in reduced gravity settings. The present study characterised the acute physiological and kinetic responses to bodyweight jumping in simulated Lunar ...

Myocellular adaptations to short‐term weighted wheel‐running exercise are largely conserved during C26‐tumour induction in male and female mice

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated whether performing a translatable murine model of concurrent training after tumour induction affects adaptations in juvenile male and female tumour‐bearing mice. Male and female Balb/c mice were injected bilaterally with colon‐26 adenocarcinoma (C26) cells or PBS at 8 weeks of age.

NSAID ingestion augments training‐induced muscle hypertrophy and differentially affects muscle mRNA expression, but not strength gains, in trained men

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic outlining the impact of NSAID ingestion on resistance exercise training‐induced changes in muscle morphology, function and gene networks relative to placebo ingestion in trained males. Abstract Non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely overused in sports.
