Metformin and tBHQ Treatment Combined with an Exercise Regime Prevents Osteosarcopenic Obesity in Middle-Aged Wistar Female Rats. [PDF]
Oxid Med Cell Longev, 2021 Osteosarcopenic obesity (OSO) is characterized by bone density, mass, and muscle strength loss, in conjunction with adipose tissue increase. OSO impairs physical activity and mobility, provoking autonomy loss; also, it is known that augmenting body fat in the elderly decreases life expectancy.

Low-Intensity Exercise Routine for a Long Period of Time Prevents Osteosarcopenic Obesity in Sedentary Old Female Rats, by Decreasing Inflammation and Oxidative Stress and Increasing GDF-11. [PDF]
Oxid Med Cell Longev, 2021 The loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength is known as sarcopenia; it is characterized as a progressive and generalized muscle disorder associated with aging. This deterioration can seriously compromise the elderly’s health and reduce their quality of life.

Sex Differences in Age-Associated Type 2 Diabetes in Rats-Role of Estrogens and Oxidative Stress. [PDF]
Oxid Med Cell Longev, 2019 Females live longer than males, and the estrogens are one of the reasons for this difference. We reported some years ago that estrogens are able to protect rats against oxidative stress, by inducing antioxidant genes. Type 2 diabetes is an age‐associated disease in which oxidative stress is involved, and moreover, some studies show that the prevalence ...

Human eyes do not need monochromatic aberrations for dynamic accommodation
Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics, Volume 37, Issue 5, Page 602-609, September 2017., 2017 Abstract Purpose To determine if human accommodation uses the eye's own monochromatic aberrations to track dynamic accommodative stimuli. Methods Wavefront aberrations were measured while subjects monocularly viewed a monochromatic Maltese cross moving sinusoidally around 2D of accommodative demand with 1D amplitude at 0.2 Hz.
