The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of low-pressure hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment before and after maximal exercise on lactate concentration and heart rate and antioxidant capacity. Ten healthy male college students were recruited from amateur soccer players. Subjects were performed a maximal exercise 3 times at intervals of at least 7 days according to the treatment method (control, pretreatment, posttreatment).

- The study aimed to compare the flap thickness and side-cut angle of LASIK procedures using three femtosecond lasers and a microkeratome, assessed through optical coherence tomography.
- Conducted at Yonsei University College of Medicine, the research involved measuring flap characteristics in a case series of eyes treated with various devices two months after surgery.
- Results showed that the femtosecond lasers generally produced better and more consistent flap configurations compared to the microkeratome, with varying effectiveness and predictability among the different femtosecond laser systems.
This study investigated the phenomena of finger enslaving, involuntary finger actions by non-intended fingers, and force deficit, smaller maximum force by all four fingers than the sum of individual finger maximum forces in individuals with cervical spinal cord injuries (SCI). A total of 16 subjects participated in this study: 8 with a cervical spinal cord injury and 8 controls. Each of the injured subjects had one paralyzed finger.
