Cross-education: motor unit adaptations mediate the strength increase in non-trained muscles following 8 weeks of unilateral resistance training.

Introduction: Early increases in muscle strength following unilateral resistance training are typically accompanied by strength gains in the contralateral untrained muscles, a phenomenon known as cross-education. However, the specific motor unit adaptations responsible for this gain transfer remain poorly understood. To address this gap, we recorded myoelectrical activity from the biceps brachii using high-density electromyography.

Use of pattern recognition in photoacoustic imaging to identify neuronal ensembles in the prefrontal cortex of rats undergoing conditioned fear learning.

Pattern recognition analysis in brain research has improved understanding of sensory processing and led to the identification of default brain networks in neuroimaging studies. The current study uses pattern recognition analysis to extend our previous findings showing conditioned fear learning and novelty-exposure (i.e.

Cyberknife radio-neurosurgery for secreting pituitary adenomas treated with single fraction radio-neurosurgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Introduction: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is one of the treatment options for the management of residual or recurrent secreting pituitary adenomas (PA). While the role of radiosurgery (RS) by Gamma Knife (GK) has been clearly established, Cyberknife (CK) RS has been evaluated in fewer series.

Material And Methods: To perform a systematic review of the literature and meta-analysis, with the aim of focusing on the effect of CK RS on secreting PA.

Polygenic Score: A Tool for Evaluating the Genetic Background of Sporadic Hidradenitis Suppurativa.

Sporadic hidradenitis suppurativa (spHS) is a multifactorial disease in which genetic predisposition is intertwined with environmental factors. Owing to the still-to-date limited knowledge of spHS genetics, we calculated polygenic scores (PGSs) to study the genetic underpinnings that contribute to spHS within European demographic. A total of 256 patients with spHS and 1686 healthy controls were analyzed across 6 European clinical centers.

Casual detection of an abdominal aortic aneurysm thanks to a trainee-made ultrasound with two subsequent "domino" diagnoses: case report and insights on the role of ultrasound courses.

Early detection of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is crucial as untreated lesions can be life-threatening. We describe the case of a fortuitous ultrasound (US) detection of AAA by a trainee which allowed two subsequent "domino" diagnoses. A 69 y.
