Relaxin‐2 Ameliorates Spinal Cord Injury by Inhibiting Microglia Activation
ABSTRACT This study aims to assess the therapeutic effectiveness of Relaxin‐2 (RLN‐2) in promoting functional recovery and neuroprotection following spinal cord injury (SCI) in mice. Furthermore, continuous subcutaneous infusion of Serelaxin (0.5 mg/kg/day; human recombinant relaxin‐2) improved neurological recovery, as evidenced by higher Basso ...

Arthrogenic muscle inhibition: A prevalent issue in knee arthroplasty
Abstract Purpose Flexion contracture is a multifactorial complication after knee osteoarthritis and knee arthroplasty. Among the causes, arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI) has never been studied. It is a failure to achieve proper quadriceps motor activation, which can lead to flexion contracture due to hamstring contracture.

Abstract Background Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSP) are rare disorders sharing common features of leg spasticity with gait impairment. Simple and complex forms are recognized; over 50% of cases remain unsolved genetically. Little is known about the genetics of HSP among Indigenous Peoples. Objectives To describe clinical, radiological, and genetic

Adjuvant pharmacological strategies for the musculoskeletal system during long‐term space missions
Abstract Despite 2 h of daily exercise training, muscle wasting and bone loss are still present after 6‐month missions to the international space station. Some crew members lose bone much faster than others. In preparation for missions to the Moon and Mars, space agencies are therefore reviewing their countermeasure portfolios.

Association between Perceived Dysphagia Symptoms and Swallowing Physiology in Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Swallowing disorders are prevalent in Parkinson's disease (PD). Swallowing assessment often relies on patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs). Although PROMs and physiologic swallowing measures correlate with disease severity, the relationship between PROMs and physiologic swallowing impairments is unclear.

Video Urodynamic Study in Patients with Parkinson's Disease and Multiple System Atrophy
Abstract Background Most studies have analyzed the urodynamic characteristics of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA) using conventional urodynamic studies. Objectives This study investigated the urodynamic characteristics of both diseases using video urodynamic study (VUDS).

Cell Apoptosis and Glucocorticoid‐Induced Osteonecrosis
The review identifies glucocorticoid‐induced osteocyte/osteoblast apoptosis as central to femoral head osteonecrosis (GION), mediated through STAT1‐caspase‐3, PI3K/Akt, Wnt/β‐catenin, and oxidative stress pathways. Emerging therapies targeting these pathways (e.g., HIF‐1α stabilization, AMPK activation, and exosome‐mediated miRNA delivery) show ...

ABSTRACT The use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has significantly improved the efficacy of cancer therapy, but their associated immune‐related adverse events (irAEs) can severely compromise treatment safety. This review systematically summarizes the core mechanisms underlying irAEs, which include multi‐organ damage resulting from T‐cell ...

Increase of Plasma Biomarkers in Friedreich's Ataxia: Potential Insights into Disease Pathology
Abstract Background Therapeutic interventions in Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA) are progressing into clinical trials, and the need for robust and easily accessible biomarkers has arisen. Objective This study aimed to consolidate preliminary findings of changes in the levels of neurofilament light (NfL), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), Tau, and ...

Central Pathophysiology and Brain Network Changes Related to Camptocormia in Parkinson's Disease
ABSTRACT Background Studies on brain connectivity offer important insights into the changes that occur in central network diseases such as Parkinson's disease (PD). Camptocormia, a condition characterized by abnormal flexion of the trunk, often occurs in advanced PD, but its underlying mechanisms are not yet clear.
