Subacute Thyroiditis in Denmark: A Nationwide Study of 1763 Cases

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Subacute thyroiditis (SAT) is a differential diagnosis in the clinical care of hypo‐ and hyperthyroid patients, but large‐scale population data on the incidence, patient characteristics, and outcome are limited. Thus, the aim was to determine the incidence of SAT in the Danish population and to characterise patient demographics and ...

The in vitro effects of dexamethasone, insulin and triiodothyronine on degenerative human intervertebral disc cells under normoxic and hypoxic conditions [PDF]

European Cells & Materials, 2011
Degeneration of intervertebral discs (IVD) is one of the main causes of back pain and tissue engineering has been proposed as a treatment. Tissue engineering requires the use of highly expensive growth factors, which might, in addition, lack regulatory ...

Current Approaches to Support Patients to Withdraw From Image and Performance Enhancing Drugs

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Image and performance‐enhancing drugs (IPEDs) include agents such as androgens, growth hormone, and erythropoietin, which are used to enhance appearance and physical performance. Androgens, also known as anabolic‐androgenic steroids (AAS), are the most used IPEDs worldwide.

Breaking the Debilitating Cycle: Pathophysiology, Assessment, and Multimodal Intervention of Secondary Debilitation After Hip Fracture in Older Adults—A Narrative Review

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This article provides a comprehensive overview of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying “secondary debilitation after hip fracture,” discusses the clinical application of risk assessment tools, and presents a phased, stepwise intervention strategy aimed at interrupting the “vicious cycle.” ABSTRACT Hip fractures pose a serious threat to the ...

Metabolic pattern across energy imbalance: An exploratory metabolomics study of female body weight extremes including anorexia nervosa and athletes

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract In anorexia nervosa (AN), prolonged metabolic adaptation to severe energy deficiency can impair treatment efficacy. Similarly, low energy availability poses a recognized risk to athletes, potentially compromising health and performance. This cross‐sectional study aimed to characterize the plasma metabolic pattern of females with varying ...

Intramuscular pathways of maladaptation in overtraining syndrome

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The transition from adaptive overreaching to maladaptive overtraining and mechanisms through which excessive training load can lead to performance decline. Four interconnected pathophysiological domains are highlighted: neural fatigue, involving both central and peripheral components such as altered sensory feedback and reflex ...

Triiodothyronine acts on DAO to regulate pulmonary fibrosis progression by facilitating cell senescence through the p53/p21 signaling pathway

Frontiers in Pharmacology
BackgroundIdiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the result of multiple cycles of epithelial cell injury and fibroblast activation; currently, there is no clear etiology. Increasing evidence suggests that protein metabolism and amino acids play a crucial

Potential health benefits of cold‐water immersion: the central role of PGC‐1α

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cold‐water immersion (CWI) elicits autonomic, somato‐motoric (shivering thermogenesis), endocrine and metabolic, sensory transduction, and local biophysical effects that may converge on the transcriptional co‐activator PGC‐1α (centre).
