Handgrip strength assessment at baseline in addition to bone parameters could potentially predict the risk of curve progression in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
IntroductionAdolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is characterized by deranged bone and muscle qualities, which are important prognostic factors for curve progression.

Handgrip Strength and Risk of Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Cardiology, 2020
Consistent evidence suggests inverse and independent associations between handgrip strength (HGS) and cardiovascular outcomes. However, whether HGS is specifically related to future risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) is uncertain. We sought to assess the prospective association between HGS and risk of AF.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Association Between Handgrip Strength and Fatigability and Cognitive Performance in Adults Aged 65 and Older [PDF]

open access: yes
BACKGROUND/AIMS: To explore the relationship between handgrip strength, fatigability, and cognitive function in older adults. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 89 adults aged 65-85 who were re-ceiving services from a physical ...

Reductions in systolic blood pressure achieved by hypertensives with three isometric training sessions per week are maintained with a single session per week

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2023
Isometric handgrip or (wall) squat exercise performed three times per week produces reductions in systolic blood pressure (SBP) in adults with hypertension.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Strength and competitiveness are more strongly predictive of retrospective sport participation than 2D:4D in university-aged women

open access: yesFACETS, 2019
Objective: Females continue to participate in sport at lower rates than males. Girls who participate in sport gain many advantages. Even with programs designed to emphasize participation, some females continue with sport participation while others do not.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Relationships Among Metacarpal Bone Mass and Handgrip Strength In 150 Healthy Adult Males [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Bone density and muscle strength are the primary determinants of bone strength. Measurements of grip strength is less costly, less invasive and in combination with metacarpal bone mineral density (BMD) measurements could provide a feasible way of ...
