Analysis of eye movements in the judgment of enjoyment and non-enjoyment smiles

Frontiers in Psychology, 2013
Enjoyment smiles are more often associated with the simultaneous presence of the Cheek raiser and Lip corner puller action units, and these units’ activation is more often symmetric.

Involvement in daily life activities from the perspectives of children and young people with childhood‐onset disabilities: A scoping review

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
This scoping review aimed to understand the construct ‘involvement’ in daily life activities from the perspective of children and young people with childhood‐onset disabilities. We identified six conceptual ideas, including a continuum of inner dedication or investment in‐the‐moment, and five others reflecting how children and young people process ...

Sarcospan Regulates Cardiac Isoproterenol Response and Prevents Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy–Associated Cardiomyopathy

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2015
Background Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a fatal cardiac and skeletal muscle disease resulting from mutations in the dystrophin gene. We have previously demonstrated that a dystrophin‐associated protein, sarcospan (SSPN), ameliorated Duchenne muscular ...

Bone health in adults with non‐ambulatory neuromuscular disorders: scoping review of risk factors, diagnosis and management

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Non‐ambulatory adults have an increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures due to reduced weight‐bearing and diminished neuromuscular stimulation, resulting in substantial morbidity and mortality. Aims This scoping review aimed to systematically evaluate risk factors, diagnostic indicators and management strategies for optimising ...

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Modeling and Therapy

Cells, 2018
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an X-linked recessive disorder, caused by mutation of the DMD gene which encodes the protein dystrophin. This dystrophin defect leads to the progressive degeneration of skeletal and cardiac muscles.

‘I Do Feel Some Level of Solidarity… in an Individual Way’: Disability Solidarity, Disability Identity and the Role of Social Services

Social Policy &Administration, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on social policy and solidarity often highlights disability as a paradigmatic case of a ‘deserving’ group that warrants social support. However, this hierarchical view of solidarity frequently ignores the role of solidarity in the lived experiences and everyday practices of disabled people themselves.

The humorous standard

The European Journal of Humour Research
Laughter has been extensively studied by Darwin (1890). Van Hooff (1972; 1989) traced the phylogeny of smiling and laughter to non-human primate “grin-face” and “play face”, which signals non-serious attacks. Human cognition evolved beyond primate “play”

Senolytics and exercise: Dual modalities for rejuvenating muscle

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The role of senolytics on the heart and skeletal muscle. Senescent cell burden increases with ageing, disuse and disease. The senolytics dasatinib+quercetin (D+Q), navitoclax and fisetin, as well as exercise, eliminate senescent cells, reducing senescent cell burden and their senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP ...

The mitochondrial‐targeted antioxidant SkQ1 prevents skeletal muscle mitochondrial‐apoptotic but not necroptotic signalling during ovarian cancer

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend An evaluation of the degree to which mitochondrial hydrogen peroxide emission (mH2O2)‐mediated apoptotic and necroptotic signalling contributes to skeletal muscle atrophy in an orthotopic epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) model. To determine whether attenuating mH2O2 could prevent regulated cell death signalling and mitigate muscle

RIPK3 Inhibition Mitigates Denervated Muscle Atrophy via NOX4‐Mediated Mitochondrial Restoration and Inflammation Suppression

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Peripheral nerve injury‐induced muscle atrophy shares core pathophysiological features with systemic wasting disorders including cachexia and sarcopenia, yet early molecular triggers remain undefined. This study investigates the pathogenic role of receptor‐interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) in denervation atrophy.
