Evidence for adaptive explanations of semelparity in animals

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Semelparity, the reproductive strategy of reproducing once, is widespread but uncommon in animals. Classes of models to explain the evolution of semelparity are based either on age structure and mortality schedules – demographic models in which high post‐reproductive mortality risk favours high reproductive effort and semelparity results from ...

Fhod3 in zebrafish supports myofibril stability during growth of embryonic skeletal muscle

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Actin filament organization in cardiomyocytes critically depends on the formin Fhod3, but a role for Fhod3 in skeletal muscle development has not yet been described. Results We demonstrate here that in zebrafish mutated for one of two fhod3 paralog genes, fhod3a, skeletal muscle of the trunk appears normal through 2 days post ...

Age, sex and graft choice are associated with the achievement of a patient acceptable symptom state five years after primary ACL reconstruction

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To determine the proportion of patients and the factors associated with the achievement of a patient‐acceptable symptom state (PASS) 5 years after primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Methods Patients who underwent primary ACLR between 2005 and 2018 at Capio Artro Clinic, Stockholm, Sweden, were eligible for ...

Autologous minimally manipulated adipose‐derived stromal vascular fraction in knee osteoarthritis: Lasting symptom relief and imaging evidence from a 12‐month prospective study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the safety and efficacy of intra‐articular autologous transplantation of adipose‐derived connective tissue micrografts rich in stromal vascular fraction (CTM‐SVF), obtained using an enzyme‐free system (Hy‐Tissue® SVF) for knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods Thirty patients (mean age of 53.3 ± 6.4 years) with Kellgren–Lawrence

Vitamin D as an intervention for improving quadriceps muscle strength in patients after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: study protocol for a randomized double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial

Trials
Background The goal of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is to restore the preinjury level of knee function to return to play (RTP). However, even after completing the rehabilitation programme, some patients may have persistent quadriceps ...
