Abstract Serial sarcomere number (SSN) is reduced following immobilization of a muscle in a shortened position in male rodents thereby impairing muscle contractile function. However, in female rodents the effects of oestrogen on SSN and mechanical changes following immobilization and re‐ambulation are unknown.

Abstract figure legend In healthy young males, we found that skeletal muscle hypertrophy following a period of resistance exercise training (RET) was consistent within and between subjects, as assessed using a variety of established methods. The skeletal muscle hypertrophic response was independent of external load.

Some Properties of a Recently Introduced Approach to Ordinal Regression
The statistical properties of a novel approach to ordinal regression which was only recently introduced in the literature are discussed. It is shown that for ordinal explanatory variables the approach is equivalent to isotonic regression, with some ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims In anesthesia and analgesia, opioids alone or in combination with local anesthetics (bupivacaine, lidocaine, and ropivacaine) have been investigated to prolong peripheral nerve blocks. Ultra‐low‐dose naloxone administration in local anesthetic solutions could lengthen sensory and motor blocks through enhanced opioid effects

ABSTRACT Background Delirium is clinically classified into hypoactive or hyperactive motoric subtypes, which may have different responses to treatment. We assessed heterogeneity in treatment effects according to baseline motoric subtype in the AID‐ICU trial, which randomised adult ICU patients with delirium to haloperidol versus placebo.

Identification of Sodium/Myo‐Inositol Transporter 1 as a Major Determinant of Arterial Contractility
The tonicity‐responsive enhancer binding‐protein (TonEBP) and serum glucocorticoid kinase (SGK) sense a rise in extracellular hypertonicity resulting in an increase SMIT1 membrane abundance in vascular smooth muscle cells. SMIT1 associates with Kv7.4/5, Gβγ, and KCNE4, promoting hyperpolarization, reduced voltage‐gated calcium channel (VGCC) opening ...
