This study used shear‐wave elastography to assess Achilles tendon and calf muscle stiffness following acute lateral ankle sprain (LAS). Despite the expected alterations due to injury and unloading, no significant stiffness changes were observed over 6 weeks. Findings suggest potential compensatory mechanisms preserving tissue mechanical properties post‐

Summary Food crops, as the cornerstone of human nutrition, not only provide essential macronutrients but also encompass a rich spectrum of bioactive compounds that promote health. Of particular significance are underutilized minor crops, which contain unique beneficial components with proven nutraceutical properties. These valuable bioactive components

Next‐generation sequencing has identified risk genes with large effect sizes for autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Although functional analysis of individual risk genes has progressed, the overall picture of ASD pathogenesis is unclear. Therefore, there is a need for morphological profiling of variants in these genes to fully comprehend their ...

Jumping on the moon as a potential exercise countermeasure
Abstract The Moon's gravitational field strength (17% Earth's gravity) may facilitate the use of bodyweight jumping as an exercise countermeasure against musculoskeletal and cardiovascular deconditioning in reduced gravity settings. The present study characterised the acute physiological and kinetic responses to bodyweight jumping in simulated Lunar ...

Abstract What do Charles Darwin, T.H. Huxley, August Krogh and Charles Sherrington have in common? Florence Buchanan – a name history has unjustly dimmed but never erased. Her academic lineage is a direct thread through the titans of biology: E. Ray Lankester mentored her after being shaped by Huxley, Darwin's celebrated protégé.

Abstract Despite exercise countermeasures to sustain health and performance in spaceflight, complete maintenance of muscle mass and functions in microgravity is still not possible for most astronauts. The principal cause of the limited effectiveness of existing exercise countermeasures is the difficulty in achieving full loading forces in space.

Abstract It is well‐established that resistance training generates neural adaptations. These may be greater when exercises mainly include eccentric contractions or when muscles are trained at long length. However, it remains to be clarified whether the length at which muscles are trained influences neural adaptation following eccentric training.

Abstract Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is characterized by respiratory muscle injury and weakness, ultimately leading to respiratory failure. Impaired respiratory muscle performance, fibrosis and inflammation in early disease are evident in the dystrophin‐deficient mdx mouse model of DMD.
