Assessment of temporospatial and kinematic gait parameters using human pose estimation in patients with Parkinson's disease: A comparison between near-frontal and lateral views.

Gait disturbance is one of the most common symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) that is closely associated with poor clinical outcomes. Recently, video-based human pose estimation (HPE) technology has attracted attention as a cheaper and simpler method for performing gait analysis than marker-based 3D motion capture systems. However, it remains unclear whether video-based HPE is a feasible method for measuring temporospatial and kinematic gait parameters in patients with PD and how this function varies with camera position.

Fermented Fish Collagen Diminished Photoaging-Related Collagen Decrease by Attenuating AGE-RAGE Binding Activity.

Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation causes skin wrinkles and decreases elasticity. UV also increases binding between advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and the receptor for AGEs (RAGE), resulting in increased inflammation and activation of NF-κB. We evaluated whether fermented fish collagen (FC) could decrease photoaging via decreasing AGE-RAGE binding activity, which was associated with decreased TNF-α and NF-κB levels in UV-irradiated keratinocytes and animal skin.

Poly-D,L-Lactic Acid Fillers Increase Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue Volume by Promoting Adipogenesis in Aged Animal Skin.

During aging, subcutaneous white adipose tissue (sWAT) thickness and the adipogenic potential of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) decline. Poly-D,L-lactic acid (PDLLA) fillers are commonly used to restore diminished facial volume. Piezo1 increases polarizing macrophages towards the M2 phenotype, which promotes the secretion of fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2), thereby increasing ASC survival.

Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Extracellular Vesicles from on 12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-Acetate-Induced Skin Inflammation in Mice.

Steroids, which are often used to treat the inflammation associated with various skin diseases, have several negative side effects. As extract has anti-inflammatory effects in various diseases, we evaluated the efficacy of -derived extracellular vesicles (EVEs) in decreasing 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced inflammation. We determined the effect of the EVEs on the TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 inflammasome in human keratinocytes and mouse ear skin.

Poly-D,L-Lactic Acid Filler Attenuates Ultraviolet B-Induced Skin Pigmentation by Reducing Destruction of the Basement Membrane.

Poly-D,L-lactic acid (PDLLA) filler, which increases volume and collagen synthesis, is used for skin rejuvenation. PDLLA filler also increases M2 macrophages and IL-10. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation induces dermal hyperpigmentation by disrupting the basement membrane (BM), allowing melanin to move into the dermis.
