Perceptions of Hansen's Disease in Northeast Brazil: A Community‐Based Study Integrating Stigma, Empowerment, and Social Distance

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Perceptions of Hansen’s disease (HD) can influence the level of stigma, empowerment, and intention to distance oneself from those affected by the disease. Knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs shape these perceptions. This study aims to understand perceptions of HD regarding stigma and empowerment. Method: A cross‐sectional, mixed‐methods research

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Changes in motor unit conduction velocity after unilateral lower‐limb suspension and active recovery are correlated with muscle ion channel gene expression

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The effects of muscle disuse on the propagation of action potentials along motor unit (MU) muscle fibres, a key process for effective muscle activation and force generation, remain poorly understood. The aim of this study was to investigate changes in action potential propagation and to identify biological factors influencing these changes ...

Age‐ and sex‐specific modulation of human cardiac electrophysiology by doxorubicin

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend DOX differentially impacts cardiac electrophysiology based on sex and age. Sex differences were primarily observed among younger hearts, where action potential duration (APD) prolongation was observed in females, but not in males. Created using BioRender. George, S. (2026) https://BioRender.com/wresf1k Abstract Acute doxorubicin (
