Analytical Validation of a Novel Point‐Of‐Care Quantitative Immunoassay for Feline N‐Terminal Pro‐Brain Natriuretic Peptide

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Point‐of‐care testing (POC) is widely utilized for rapid results for many different analytes. A new feline‐specific N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) quantitative assay (Vcheck V200, Bionote Inc) is currently available but has not undergone independent validation.

Muscle wasting in cancer cachexia: Mechanisms and the role of exercise

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cancer cachexia (CC) is a multifactorial disease marked by a severe and progressive loss of lean muscle mass and characterized further by inflammation and a negative energy/protein balance, ultimately leading to muscle atrophy and loss of muscle tissue.

Commuting by bicycle (vs. by car) is associated with improved aerobic power, microvascular function and diminished CO2 output in the atmosphere

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The study investigated whether bicycle compared with car commuting, over relatively small distances, has positive effects on physiological variables, cardiometabolic fitness and CO2 output in the atmosphere. Bike Commuters (11 M, 15 F; age [median value (interquartile range)] 51.5 (38.3–56.8) years; body mass index [BMI] 22.8 (21.0–24.1) kg m ...

Cardioprotection via vagus nerve stimulation preconditioning: Reducing ischaemia–reperfusion injury and arrhythmic risk

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Acute myocardial infarction is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, with ischaemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury exacerbating myocardial damage. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) has been reported to exert cardioprotective effects, but its efficacy in preconditioning against I/R injury requires further investigation.

Antenatal betamethasone impairs markers of cardiac development and function in near‐term lambs

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure Summary of key molecular differences in the left ventricle of near‐term lambs exposed to antenatal betamethasone, compared to saline. Pregnant ewes received two doses of either saline (Saline) or betamethasone (Betamethasone, intramuscular, 11.4 mg) given 24 h apart, before delivery at 140 days of gestation (dG, term = 150 dG).
