Abstract Prolonged sitting inherent to long‐haul air travel can acutely decrease lower‐limb blood flow and increase brachial blood pressure. Healthy motion seating (HMS), which passively alters sitting interface pressure and posture, is a promising technology which may attenuate the deleterious effects of long‐haul air travel. The aim of this study was

Abstract figure legend The brain is a major energy consumer relying primarily on carbohydrates. This exceptional metabolic demand suggests that its functional state, which includes cognitive processes such as motor memory acquisition and retention, should be observable in the body's systemic metabolism. To explore this link, we investigated whether the

In distal limb wounds on the horse, the proliferative phase of repair often produces excessive granulation tissue that delays healing by impeding keratinocyte migration from wound margins. This essay examines the basis for the hypothesis that ephrin–Eph signaling pathways that stimulate keratinocyte migration provide novel targets for re‐establishing ...
