The Acute Effects of Interrupting Prolonged Sitting With Regular Activity Breaks on Postprandial Glucose and Insulin in Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Regular activity breaks improve postprandial glycemia, but the effects across different population groups and modes of breaks remain unclear. This systematic review and meta‐analysis examined the impact of activity breaks on postprandial glucose and insulin response in adult populations.

Effectiveness of Whole-Body Vibration Therapy on Handgrip Strength: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials. [PDF]

Musculoskeletal Care
ABSTRACT Introduction Although whole‐body vibration (WBV) therapy has already demonstrated efficacy in improving lower‐limb muscle strength, it is still unclear whether it has similar potential for improving handgrip strength. Objective To verify the efficacy of WBV on handgrip strength. Methods The search was conducted on September 5, 2025, in PubMed,

Customized Metal 3D Printed Total Wrist Prosthesis in the Treatment of Severely Destroyed Wrist: Design Rationale and Clinical Applications

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1536-1546, May 2025.
Four patients with severe wrist destruction from various causes were treated with customized 3D‐printed prostheses. In addition to the specific articular surface matching their original radiocarpal joint, two innovative proximal component designs were created to address different bone defects.

Acute Effects of Varying Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation Amplitude on Quadriceps Isometric Torque and Muscle Thickness in Healthy Young Adults: A Randomized Split-Limb Trial. [PDF]

Physiother Res Int
ABSTRACT Introduction Despite the relevance of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) dosimetry, it is unclear whether increasing the self‐reported tolerated amplitude enhances acute neuromuscular responses. Objective To investigate the acute effects of varying NMES amplitude and type of induced contraction on quadriceps isometric torque (IT) and ...

Renal and Functional Vulnerability in Hansen Disease: A Framework for Chronic Infectious Disability in Endemic Settings

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Hansen disease is a neglected infectious disease associated with reactional inflammation, neuropathy and long‐term disability. Renal involvement and sarcopenia have been described separately, but their clinical coexistence has received limited attention. This review examines evidence for a hypothesised renal–functional vulnerability

Seven days of mixed‐method heat acclimation improved markers of cardiovascular and fluid‐regulatory strain during exercise‐heat stress

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A mixed‐method heat acclimation (HA) protocol may optimise performance by supporting the training taper while promoting thermal adaptation; however, the impact on cardiovascular and fluid‐regulatory adjustments to protect health is unknown. Therefore, we examined the effects of a mixed‐method heat protocol on physiological responses, including

Passive thigh heating improves peak force production in younger adults and early isokinetic force production in younger and older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Older adults often suffer from reduced physical capability relative to young adults, in part due to impaired muscle function. This study investigated the ergogenic effects of passive thigh heating on knee extensor torque production in healthy older versus younger adults.
