Abstract Adults >65 years of age experience deleterious health effects during extreme heat events at a greater rate than any other age cohort. The purpose of this study was to identify the effectiveness of acute intermittent hand and forearm (H+F) water immersion and/or chronic (7 week) folic acid supplementation on reducing thermal and cardiovascular ...

Reflexiones acerca de la relación ambiente y salud. Pensando en ambientes saludables
La salud ambiental supone en la actualidad una preocupación global debido a que comprende aquellos aspectos de la salud humana, incluida la calidad de vida y el bienestar social, que son determinados por factores ambientales físicos, químicos, biológicos, sociales y psico-sociales, como así lo define la Organización Mundial de la Salud.

Macro‐ and microcirculatory factors affecting foot temperature change during walking
Abstract Change in skin temperature is a complex process affected by several factors. During walking, increased microcirculatory activity, such as muscle metabolism, could increase foot temperature. The ensuing macrocirculatory responses, such as increased leg blood flow (LBF), might also increase foot temperature.

Hypoxia and hypercapnia elicit overlapping but distinct skeletal muscle toxicities
Abstract figure legend Hypoxia and hypercapnia cause overlapping skeletal muscle phenotypes, including atrophy, change in myofibre metabolic profile and myogenic response to injury. Both signals operate via distinct cellular pathways. Abstract Skeletal muscle dysfunction is strongly associated with elevated mortality in acute and chronic pulmonary ...

Amyloid β alters vascular CaV1.2 channel spatiotemporal properties
Abstract figure legend Amyloid‐β1‐42 (Aβ1‐42) triggers a male‐specific signalling cascade influencing CaV1.2 spatiotemporal properties in cerebral vascular smooth muscle. The signalling pathway involves NADPH oxidase (NOX)‐derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) activation of protein kinase C (PKC). Aβ1‐42 can also activate protein kinase A (PKA).

ABSTRACT This study explores environmental justice issues in coastal food systems, focusing on conflicts between small‐scale fisheries and the energy sector due to differing goals in managing food and energy sources. It does so by examining the interdependence between institutions, policies, and different types of knowledge; key elements in building ...

ABSTRACT Purpose To develop a software‐based active electromagnetic interference (EMI) suppression (AES) framework on whole‐body multi‐channel MRI systems for reliable MRI and MR thermometry during MRI‐guided microwave ablation (MWA). Methods In addition to primary imaging coils, an unloaded standard body array coil was positioned outside the imaging ...

ABSTRACT Purpose To enable flexible dynamic and DCE MRI with low acoustic noise and high spatiotemporal resolution using zero echo time (ZTE) imaging. Methods This work proposes Arc‐ZTE, a technique in which the readout gradients of ZTE are continuously‐slewed to form arcs in k‐space that are sequentially rotated to yield an incoherent trajectory ...

Associations between outdoor air pollution and cancers other than lung cancer remain unclear, particularly in the context of tobacco use. Here, the authors assessed possible links between ambient air pollutant exposure and incidence of 20 non‐lung cancers among adults followed over a 25‐year period in the United States.
