Optimizing Pneumocystis jirovecii Prophylaxis in Immunocompromised Patients: Defining the Clinical Role of Atovaquone

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
In a retrospective cohort study of 149 patients receiving atovaquone for PJP prophylaxis, increased usage was related to broader indications, uptake in new patient groups, difficulty tolerating or accessing alternatives, and longer durations used per patient.

Vascular, inflammatory and perceptual responses to hot water immersion: Impacts of water depth and temperature in young healthy adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Repeated hot water immersion can improve cardiovascular health; however, the respective effects of distinct immersion protocols remain unclear. Twenty‐two healthy adults completed three 30‐min hot water immersion bouts of different water temperatures and immersion depths (40°C shoulder‐deep immersion, 40‐Shoulder; 42°C waist‐deep immersion, 42‐

Exploring lifestyle management in polycystic ovary syndrome through implementation frameworks

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome [PMOS; previously known as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)] is an endocrine condition affecting 10%–13% of women of reproductive age, with cardiometabolic, reproductive and psychological features. The PMOS guidelines have established recommendations for its management, which can include pharmacological,

Leg‐fidgeting versus standing breaks during prolonged sitting: Impacts on blood pressure and heart rate in young women

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this work was to examine whether leg‐fidgeting breaks during prolonged sitting could be a practical alternative to standing breaks in preventing blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) impairments. Young women (n = 16; age = 21.9 ± 3.0 years; body mass index = 21.1 ± 4.9 kg/m2) completed three 3‐h prolonged sitting conditions ...

Myths and methodologies: Optimising experimental rigour in heat adaptation research: Menstrual status classification and scheduling approaches

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Women remain underrepresented in thermal physiology research, particularly within studies examining physiological adaptation to hot environments. Among the limited research that includes female participants, few studies have appropriately classified menstrual status of their participants or rigorously accounted for ovarian hormone influences ...

Quantifying skin microvascular function responses to distinct forms of heat stress in humans using optical coherence tomography

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Optical coherence tomography (OCT) enables visualization and quantification of the cutaneous microvasculature, yet no study has compared responses to distinct forms of heating in humans. We hypothesized that local skin heating (LH) would evoke larger responses in microvascular diameter, velocity, flow and density than passive whole‐body ...

Giant Primary Ovarian Leiomyoma Mimicking Ovarian Malignancy in an Elderly Postmenopausal Woman: A Rare Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Ovarian leiomyomas, either primary or parasitic in origin, are exceptionally rare and account for about 0.5% to 1% of all benign ovarian tumors. They often pose a diagnostic challenge, particularly in postmenopausal women, as they can clinically and radiologically mimic ovarian malignancy.
