Experiment K-6-04. Trace element balance in rats during spaceflight [PDF]
Exposure to microgravity causes alterations in the skeletal and mineral homeostatic systems. Little is known about the effects of flight in an older skeleton; limited data suggest that bone resorption is increased after 5 days but no data are available ...

Dapagliflozin improved glycemic control and insulin resistance while preserving skeletal muscle mass, body weight, and renal function over 2 years in a patient with Werner syndrome. These findings suggest that SGLT2 inhibitors may be used safely with beneficial effects in patients with Werner syndrome.

Anatomy of spinal CSF loss in the American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis)
India ink introduced into the cranial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) compartment of Alligator diffuses along the spinal cord and exits the spinal compartment using perineural flow, resulting in a prominent “ink cuff” forming at the base of the spinal nerve. In Alligator, the region of the ink cuff is drained by a small lymphatic vessel.

Finding lumbar vertebrae by evidence gathering
Low back pain is a very common problem and lumbar segmental instability is one of the causes. It is essential to investigate lumbar spine movement in order to understand instability better and as an aid to diagnosis.

We present a method of injecting peripheral nerves with radiopaque contrast and subsequent CT scanning that produces excellent 3D models of the nerves, leaving the specimens intact and ready for further analysis (e.g., for micro‐CT or histology). Abstract The peripheral nervous system has been the subject of various studies on topics ranging from the ...
