ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Illusions of visual orientation: comparisons between perceptual and visuo-motor tasks [PDF]
The Milner and Goodale (1995) model of dual cortical visual systems suggests that, in the primate cortex, separate neural substrates dominate the tasks of visual perception and visuo-motor control.

Gender-related specificities of photoplethysmogram spectral assessment dynamics in healthy subjects during the passive tilt test [PDF]
The goal of our study was to investigate gender-related specificities of photoplethysmogram (PPG) spectral assessment dynamics in healthy individuals during the passive tilt test.

Tilt training as a treatment for reflex syncope: a multimodal approach!?
PurposeReflex syncope is a burdensome disease with considerable repercussions on the quality of life. Tilt training is a therapeutic option, but evidence on this topic is scarce and outdated. Hyperventilation is oftentimes associated with reflex syncope.

Tilt-Strain Changes Linked to a Jacking System Test
A sector of the San Marco Hospital (Catania, Italy) was the subject of a jacking test in order to demonstrate the substitutability of the seismic isolator. A monitoring system, included tiltmeters and strain gauges, was applied to one column.

Repeated tilt testing in patients with tilt-positive neurally mediated syncope [PDF]
In this study we have included 222 patients with apparent neurally mediated syncope and with a positive diagnostic tilt test. The mean age was 33.4+/-21.2 years (median 25.3): there were 107 men (median age 25.3) and 115 women (median age 22.6). The age difference between males and females was statistically significant (P = 0.002).

In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Gender differences in circulatory adjustment to head-up tilt test in health [PDF]
Background: A tilt table test is a useful, non-invasive technique that has been used for the last few decades to detect autonomic failure. The response to tilting may vary physiologically between sexes.

Introduction: The head-up tilt table test is noninvasive diagnostic procedure, which is used in the diagnosis of syncope. Syncope presents a benign short-term disorder of cerebral circulation with the sudden loss of consciousness and muscle tone.
