Calcium supplementation before exercise attenuates the decrease in serum calcium and increase in PTH and bone resorption. This study investigated the effect of calcium supplementation on calcium and bone metabolism during load carriage in women. Forty-eight women completed two load carriage sessions (load carriage 1 n = 48; load carriage 2 n = 40) (12.

While historically diagnosed based on this classic triad of symptoms, current understanding reveals a more nuanced presentation. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of PA-associated diseases in a large German population.

Improvements in resolution are achieved by physically expanding samples through embedding in a swellable hydrogel before microscopy. However, expansion microscopy has been rarely used in the field of virology.

- Microvascular imaging is becoming crucial for diagnosing and treating various diseases, highlighting the need to study how different organs communicate through their vascular systems.
- A new perfusion protocol has been developed to effectively deliver a contrast agent to the micro-vessels of multiple organs in the same animal model, ensuring consistency and repeatability in the process.
- The research also focuses on optimizing image acquisition by balancing shorter scanning times with high spatial resolution, resulting in a robust protocol for investigating vascular health and disease across different organs.
