ABSTRACT Background Lung transplant recipients are at increased risk of sarcopenia and osteoporosis, which may negatively influence respiratory outcomes. Although muscle health is known to affect lung function, little is known about the long‐term interplay between muscle parameters and pulmonary volumes, especially across sexes.

Motion Mitigation Techniques for Abdominal and Cardiac MR Imaging
ABSTRACT MRI of the heart and abdominal organs provides unparalleled soft tissue contrast and quantitative biomarkers, yet remains highly susceptible to physiological motion. Contractions of the myocardium, respiratory excursions, peristalsis, vascular pulsatility, and unpredictable bulk patient movement generate artifacts that impair image quality ...

Dysphagia Characteristics in High Versus Low Vagal Unilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis
High vagal etiology of unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP) is linked to greater swallowing dysfunction compared to low vagal etiology of UVFP, with higher rates of premature spillage, pharyngeal residue, penetration and aspiration on instrumental swallow assessment; and higher prevalence of diet and behavioral modifications recommended.

Improved Mood Following Cold‐Water Immersion: A Comparison of Differing Exposure Durations
ABSTRACT Background Cold‐water therapy is gaining popularity as a mood‐enhancing intervention. However, immersion protocols vary, particularly in terms of temperature and duration. This study examined whether different durations of cold‐water immersion produce differential effects on mood.

Cancer Neuroscience: Innovative Conception and Emerging Strategy of Therapy
In this review, we summarize nerve–cancer interactions and conclude two additional interactions, “perineural invasion” and “neuro‐microbic‐oncology.” Emphasizing the important role of nerves in tumor progression. The nervous system also contributes to the development of cancer comorbidities such as cancer depression and cognitive dysfunction.
