Acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia augments left ventricular contractility

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Twenty‐four healthy adults were studied to determine the effects of an acute session of 40 min of intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia on cardiac performance. Cardiac function was assessed via echocardiography at rest and during graded stages of lower‐body negative pressure before and after the intervention to quantify load ...

Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation during short‐term motor practice drives cortical plasticity without behavioural improvement

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) was applied during short‐term dexterous motor practice to examine its effects on behavioural performance and neural plasticity. Healthy participants practiced a two‐ball rotation task while receiving taVNS or sham stimulation.

A Porcine Model of Intervertebral Disc Injury Recapitulates Human Discogenic Pain Via Notochordal Cell Loss and Pain‐Inducing Nucleus Pulposus Cell Emergence

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
A porcine model of disc injury recapitulates key clinical, histological, and molecular features of human discogenic low back pain. Multi‐omics analyses identify a shift from notochordal cells to pain‐associated nucleus pulposus cells as a potential driver of disease progression. ABSTRACT Background Lower back pain (LBP) is one of the most common causes

Specific recruitment properties of spinal reflex of thigh muscle in sprinter

Scientific Reports
Thigh muscles activation pattern plays a key role in high-performance sprint running. We investigated spinal neural mechanisms underlying sprinters’ specific thigh muscle control by examining spinal reflex recruitment properties and reciprocal inhibition

Prognostic Factors for Postoperative Complications. An Aggregate Protocol for 10 Observational Studies From the Danish TRIPLE‐A Cohort of 1.2 Million Surgeries

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 70, Issue 7, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Postoperative complications substantially increase morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs. Understanding prognostic factors is essential for risk stratification, targeted prevention strategies, and development of prediction models.

Analgesic effects of alpha‐2‐adrenoreceptor agonists in equine medicine: systemic, spinal, and local applications

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 8, Page 442-452, August 2026.
Summary Alpha‐2‐adrenoreceptor agonists provide analgesia when used as sole agents but can also be used in combination with other drugs for their additive and potentially synergistic effects. Further, because of their effects on blood flow, alpha‐2‐adrenoreceptor agonists act to extend and perhaps intensify the effects of drugs, such as local ...

Initial feasibility evaluation of the RISES system: An innovative and activity-based closed-loop framework for spinal cord injury rehabilitation and recovery

Journal of Rehabilitation and Assistive Technologies Engineering
Background Electrical stimulation of the spinal cord may improve rewiring of the affected pathways. Immediate modulation of stimulation parameters, and its effects of it on kinematics and electromyographic variables is unclear. Methods This study piloted
