Sex Differences in Muscle–Respiratory Function Relationship in Lung Transplant Patients: A Longitudinal Study

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 2, April 2026.
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.

Multi‐Parametric MRI Approach at 3 T and 7 T for Assessing Skeletal Muscle Pathology in Myofibrillar Myopathies: A Pilot Study

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Myofibrillar myopathies (MFM) form a large group of clinically and genetically heterogeneous protein aggregate diseases. We investigated whether a novel quantitative MRI protocol can reveal new aspects of structural and biochemical muscle pathology in three classic MFM subtypes.

Motion Mitigation Techniques for Abdominal and Cardiac MR Imaging

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 63, Issue 4, Page 917-937, April 2026.
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

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 4, Page 1800-1807, April 2026.
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

open access: yesLifestyle Medicine, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
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

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
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.
