An eye on long‐duration spaceflight: Controversies, countermeasures and challenges

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Space flight‐associated neuroocular syndrome (SANS) is a consequence of long‐duration space flight and is detected in two‐thirds of astronauts. In‐flight, this can cause a change in the refraction of the eyes, requiring graded hypermetropic ‘superfocus adjustable’ glasses, optic nerve head oedema and choroidal folds.

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

Clinical and Experimental Applications of NIR-LED Photobiomodulation [PDF]

, 2006
This review presents current research on the use of far-red to near-infrared (NIR) light treatment in various in vitro and in vivo models. Low-intensity light therapy, commonly referred to as “photobiomodulation,” uses light in the far-red to near ...

Sex and age differences in mechanical, thermal and wetness perception across skin sites at risk of pressure ulcers: A quantitative sensory testing study

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Pressure ulcers can be common in the elderly, and loss of sensation can play a fundamental role in the development of these injuries. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of age and sex on non‐noxious thermal and wetness perception (via magnitude estimation), alongside pressure‐ and thermal‐pain thresholds, at the heel, sternum and ...

Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes: Pathophysiological mechanisms and opportunities for multiscale computational modelling and simulation

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Overview of multiscale cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes and how to model and simulate these changes using a human‐based, multiscale computational framework. Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes occurs at ionic channel, protein, cellular, tissue and whole‐organ level, affecting the electrophysiological function, mechanical

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

Prediabetic cardiomyopathy is attenuated by hypothalamic PVN oxytocin neuron activation

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A long‐term high‐fat, high‐fructose diet induces prediabetes with insulin resistance, hyperinsulinaemia, elevated triglycerides and metabolic‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in male rats. Animals developed prediabetic cardiomyopathy characterized by diastolic dysfunction, interstitial fibrosis and tachycardia ...
