ATHLETIC: An exoskeleton countermeasure exercise device for resistive and plyometric training in deep‐space missions

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Prolonged exposure to weightlessness leads to loss of muscle and bone mass. Therefore, astronauts on board the International Space Station (ISS) currently perform mandatory daily exercises. ISS missions usually last 6 months, and future missions will become significantly longer when going, for example, to Mars.

NEX4EX – A novel exercise device enabling resistive, plyometric and sensorimotor training during deep‐space missions: A case report

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract During weightlessness, the human neuro–muscular–skeletal system undergoes maladaptation to the microgravity environment. The European Space Agency (ESA) project NEX4EX, ‘Novel Exercise Hardware for Exploration’, developed an advanced multipurpose exerciser offering resistive (RES), plyometric (PLYO) and sensorimotor (SENSO) exercises.

The Conjugated Bile Acids Profile Suggests a Novel Liver‐Muscle Axis Associated With Sarcopenia in Chronic Liver Disease

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Liver‐related sarcopenia is a devastating systemic complication of chronic liver disease (CLD) driven by mechanisms extending beyond nutritional deficiency. However, the role of liver‐derived humoral factors remains unclear. We utilised a unique cohort of human skeletal muscle biopsies to test the hypothesis that serum conjugated ...

Novel MRI‐Guided Ultrasound Equations for Whole‐Body Muscle Mass in Caucasian Adults

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Muscle mass is a critical indicator of health and functionality, yet its accurate measurement remains challenging. Ultrasound offers a promising alternative, providing cost‐effective, non‐invasive assessments of surrogates of muscle mass: muscle thickness and cross‐sectional area (CSA).
