Abstract Background Low muscle mass is common in patients on hemodialysis (HD), and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) predictive equations have been proposed as an alternative for estimating muscle mass. This study aimed to analyze the validity and agreement of different BIA‐based prediction equations against dual energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA)

Obesity Increases Cardiovascular Strain During Passive Whole‐Body Heat Stress in Middle‐Aged Women
ABSTRACT Objective Heat‐related mortality is greater in middle‐aged and older women, compared with age‐matched men, and in those with obesity, although the causes are unclear. Methods Thermoregulatory and cardiovascular responses were assessed in (n = 10 per group) young women (21 ± 2 years), middle‐aged women without obesity (−OB; 55 ± 6 years), and ...

Herbal Therapeutics in Osteoporosis: Mechanisms, Evidence, and Translational Potential
Schematic overview of bone remodeling dysregulation in osteoporosis and the multi‐target protective role of herbal therapeutics. ABSTRACT Osteoporosis is a chronic bone disease marked by reduced density and increased fracture risk. Current treatments face limitations in safety, efficacy, and long‐term adherence, prompting interest in alternative ...
