Circadian Disruption and Metabolic Disease: Findings from Animal Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Social opportunities and work demands have caused humans to become increasingly active during the late evening hours, leading to a shift from the predominantly diurnal lifestyle of our ancestors to a more nocturnal one.

Assessment of Initial Stay Time and Work‐Rest Scheduling Over Consecutive Moderate‐Intensity Workdays in Hot Environments in Young and Older Males and Females

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Initial stay time (IST), the duration of continuous work before core temperature reaches 38.0°C, has been characterized in young and older adults but not across consecutive work periods or in conjunction with standard work‐rest cycles.

Tunable Regional Targeting of Self‐Assembling Peptide Nanomaterials in Acute Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
In a rat model of acute myocardial infarction, intravascular delivery of peptide nanofibers with a collagen‐targeting peptide bound to the infarct vasculature while globular peptide nanoparticles penetrated into the infarct area. This study demonstrated that size, shape, and surface chemistry of nanomaterials control the delivery location within the ...

Effects of intermittent exposure to hypobaria and cold on the microarchitecture and morphofunctional profile of rat gastrocnemius muscle

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) enhances oxygen transport, muscle metabolism, and cardiovascular health; however, the combined effects of hypobaria and cold are less well understood. Exposure to these stressful environmental factors, even intermittently, can affect skeletal muscle due to its plasticity, thereby altering its metabolic and ...

Morphometric analysis of postnatal lung development in the gray short‐tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica): An ultrastructural study

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract An ultrastructural morphometric analysis of the postnatal development of the lung in the gray short‐tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica) has been conducted to evaluate the morphofunctional status of this poorly developed marsupial lung immediately following parturition.

Tranexamic Acid Use in Hip Arthroscopy Reduces Bleeding Without Increased Risk of Major Complications: A Systematic Review

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To critically evaluate the impact of tranexamic acid (TXA) on hip arthroscopy outcomes, including its effects on bleeding, functional recovery, postoperative pain, complications, intraoperative visualization, and surgical efficiency. Methods A systematic review was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic ...
