Abstract Microgravity is associated with stature increases, back pain and post‐flight intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation. This study aims to determine whether 30 s seated 50% body weight (BW) axial loading is comparable to 15 min sitting upright in 1 g upon changes in stature, anterior lumbar IVD height (via ultrasound), passive vertebral stiffness ...

Muscle Health and Prognosis in Patients With Cancer: New Insights
ABSTRACT Background Reduced muscle mass and impaired composition have each been independently associated with worse outcomes in patients with cancer. However, emerging evidence suggests that reduced muscle strength—namely, dynapenia—may be particularly important for prognostication, as it is easier to assess in clinical practice compared to muscle mass.

Secretome and Pathway Analysis of Stress Induced Disc Degeneration In Vitro
Integrated secretome and phosphoprotein profiling of human nucleus pulposus cells revealed that IL‐1β and TLR2/6 activation induce a shared degenerative program, defined by consistent upregulation of IL‐6, IL‐8, GRO‐α, ICAM‐1, and MMP‐7 and convergence on NF‐κB/AP‐1 signaling.

The intervertebral discs (IVDs) from mice with amyloid pathologies are larger, flatter, and exhibit increased energy absorption, making these IVDs more susceptible to damage. This heightened vulnerability may predispose elderly individuals with AD to disc injuries, accelerating IVD degeneration and spinal pain. ABSTRACT Background Chronic low back pain,
