Assessing Cardiac Mechanical Dysfunction in Transfusion-Dependent β-Thalassemia With History of Atrial Fibrillation: The Role of Speckle Tracking Echocardiography. [PDF]

Echocardiography
Transfusion dependent β‐thalassemia patients with history of atrial fibrillation (AF) had lower values of global longitudinal strain and peak atrial longitudinal strain (PALS) and showed higher prevalence of both left ventricular and atrial mechanical dysfunction. PALS was associated with high diagnostic accuracy for the detection of AF.

Effects of Low-Load Blood-Flow Restriction Training Versus High-Load Resistance Training on Neuromuscular Performance and Neuromuscular Activation. [PDF]

Scand J Med Sci Sports
ABSTRACT Low‐load blood‐flow restriction (BFR) training is a potential alternative to high‐load (HL) resistance training, especially when mechanical stress must be minimized. However, its effects on neuromuscular activation remain unclear. This randomized controlled trial compared changes in voluntary activation (VA) and neuromuscular performance ...

Genomic Signatures of Microgeographic Adaptation in Anopheles coluzzii Across Urban, Rural, and Forested Environments in Gabon. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Species distributed across heterogeneous environments often evolve locally adapted populations, but understanding how these persist in the presence of homogenizing gene flow remains puzzling. In Gabon, Anopheles coluzzii, a major African malaria mosquito, is found in various ecological settings, including urban areas, remote rural villages ...
