Study of handgrip strength and handgrip endurance in Type 2 diabetics

open access: yesNational Journal of Physiology, Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 2018
Background: Unlike the many systems which are targets for diabetic complications such as the cardiovascular system, eyes, kidney, and nervous system even the musculoskeletal system is a silent target organ for diabetic complications although less valued than the others. Aims and Objectives: To study of handgrip strength (HGS) and handgrip endurance

Handgrip Strength as a Darwinian Fitness Indicator in Men [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
Handgrip strength (HGS) is a robust measure of overall muscular strength and function, and has long been predictive of a multitude of health factors and physical outcomes for both men and women. The fact that HGS represents such a ubiquitous measure of health and vitality may reflect the significance of this trait during human evolution.

Predicting Epileptogenic Tubers in Patients With Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Using a Fusion Model Integrating Lesion Network Mapping and Machine Learning

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Accurate localization of epileptogenic tubers (ETs) in patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is essential but challenging, as these tubers lack distinct pathological or genetic markers to differentiate them from other cortical tubers.

Unraveling the Molecular Mechanisms of Glioma Recurrence: A Study Integrating Single‐Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Glioma recurrence severely impacts patient prognosis, with current treatments showing limited efficacy. Traditional methods struggle to analyze recurrence mechanisms due to challenges in assessing tumor heterogeneity, spatial dynamics, and gene networks.
