Systemic Physiological Impact on Cervical Bone Quality Measurements: A Comparative Analysis of Cervical Vertebral Bone Quality Scores and Hounsfield Units

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This study enrolled 512 patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy to compare the physiological impacts on C‐VBQ score and C‐HU. The correlations of bilirubin and glucose metabolism indicators with both indices were stronger at the C4/5 segment and in female patients, and the C‐VBQ score appeared to be more sensitive to physiological factors than C ...

DISCRETELY TUNABLE FIBER RING LASER USING FBG TUNABLE FILTER AND MACH-ZEHNDER INTERFEROMETER

open access: yes, 2009
A discretely tunable Er-doped fiber-ring laser using a fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) and a tunable fiber Bragg grating (FBG) is proposed. In this scheme, the combination of MZI and FBG acts as a discrete wavelength selector.

Circulating Tsukushi Predicts Incident Sarcopenia and Functional Decline in Older Adults: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Sarcopenia is a major age‐related condition associated with functional decline, disability and mortality in older adults, yet reliable circulating biomarkers for early risk stratification remain limited. Tsukushi (TSK), a secreted hepatokine involved in systemic metabolic regulation, has recently been implicated in skeletal muscle ...
