Article Synopsis
- This study explores how autonomic nervous system dysfunction, arterial stiffness, and post-exercise heart rate recovery differ in people with varying levels of spinal cord injury (SCI).
- It involved 51 SCI patients, dividing them into two groups based on their injury level and assessing their autonomic function and cardiovascular health through tests like head-up tilt and pulse wave velocity.
- Results showed that higher injury levels (Group A) had poorer heart rate recovery after exercise compared to those with lower injury levels (Group B), highlighting the need for targeted preventive measures for cardiovascular issues in SCI patients.
Article Synopsis
- * Researchers used CRISPR/Cas9 technology to edit specific genes in three types of pepper plants to promote the seedless trait, focusing on targeting auxin homeostasis.
- * Two out of five designed CRISPR guide RNAs were effective in the pepper cultivars, showing promise for developing new seedless varieties via precision breeding to tackle climate change challenges.
Prevalence and predisposing factors of post-stroke complex regional pain syndrome: Retrospective case-control study.

Introduction: Poststroke complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is an important complication in stroke survivors. The identification of factors associated with post-stroke CRPS is important for preventive measures and early diagnosis.
Methods: A total of 141 first-ever stroke survivors in the subacute stage were retrospectively analyzed.
We developed a magnetic-force-based three-dimensional (3D) rehabilitation device that can perform motor rehabilitation treatment for paralyzed fingers, regardless of upper extremity movement and position, and investigated the therapeutic effects of the device. An end-effector type rehabilitation device that can generate magnetic fields in three directions was developed using electromagnets and permanent magnetics. A double-blinded randomized controlled pilot study was conducted with a total of 12 patients.

Colorectal cancer is one of the most commonly occurring cancers worldwide and its incidence has markedly increased in Korea. While the adoption of proteomic strategies facilitated the study of tumor biomarkers, to date, no common agreement has been derived from proteomic investigations regarding tumor markers of colorectal cancer.
