Effect of Functional Electrical Stimulation Combined With Physical Exercise on Electron Transport Chain Activity in Peripheral Blood Cells of Stroke Patients

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Stroke induces mitochondrial dysfunction and motor disorders. FES combined with physical exercises can help restore mitochondrial function by regulating the formation of reactive oxygen species and, consequently, contributing to functional recovery. ABSTRACT Background Stroke is commonly accompanied by motor disorders secondary to the initial injury ...

A Clinical Study of the Distribution and Morphology of Harris Lines

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Harris lines are commonly used in bioarcheology to infer lifestyle in ancient populations; however, their etiology and identification parameters are still under debate. The aim of this study is to observe the distribution of the lesions in a contemporary clinical sample to address their association with etiological factors, age, biological sex,

Morphological and Morphometric Analysis of Animal Hair From 18th Century Burial Sites in Mazamet (Southwest France)

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Morphological and morphometric analysis of archaeological animal hairs offers a nondestructive method to explore past clothing. We examined hair from two 18th‐century burial areas (SP03 and SP04) in Mazamet, France. SP03 specimens exhibited a continuous medulla, a low medullary index (0.2 ± 0.03) and cuticular features suggesting goat or ...
