Abstract Prolonged bed rest and immobilization have deleterious effects on skeletal muscle mass and function, especially in older adults. These can lead to reduced physical capacity and quality of life. Previous experiments in younger individuals show that exercise can mitigate these effects, but evidence remains scarce and inconclusive in older adults.

Abstract Older adults experience a markedly increased risk of falls and fractures following hospital discharge, largely due to the rapid musculoskeletal deterioration associated with bed rest. Although age‐related muscle and bone loss typically develops gradually, acute physical inactivity accelerates key biological processes underlying sarcopenia and ...

Temporal Dilution: Chemotherapy, Capitalism, and the Making of Cancer Time in Colombia
ABSTRACT Through the ethnographic case of a man undergoing chemotherapy for prostate cancer at a hospital in Colombia, this article examines how chemotherapy schedules make toxicity clinically manageable while imposing rhythms that many patients cannot sustain. It develops an analytic framework centered on three interrelated temporal dynamics: temporal

Abstract Carbon dioxide‐reduced hydrogen can be synthesized through various methods such as dry‐reforming (DRM), steam reforming (SMR), and partial oxidation (POX). Tri‐reforming of methane (TRM) is a promising technology which combines all the above‐mentioned processes for the simultaneous production of hydrogen and syngas with high energy efficiency.

Liquids at silica interfaces experience demixing as a consequence of their respective polarity. The distribution of liquids and their primary relaxation contributions are studied by surface modification with OD and radical moieties, respectively. ABSTRACT NMR relaxation of liquids in the presence of solid interfaces, such as silica gel or porous glass,
