This study investigated the effect of spinal bone metastasis (BM) on the biomechanical environment of the spine through estimates of load, strength, and the load‐to‐strength ratio (LSR). Our study suggests that task‐specific differences related to cancer, lesion type, and vertebral location differentially affect the biomechanical environment of the ...

ABSTRACT Objective Mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS) is associated with increased cardiometabolic risk factors including hypertension, type 2 diabetes and dyslipidaemia. By using evening doses of metyrapone, a short‐acting 11‐β hydroxylase inhibitor, it has been shown that it is possible to reset the abnormal circadian cortisol rhythm in MACS ...
