Enigmatic sarcopenic obesity is still a challenge for science and adds to the global public health burden. The progressive accumulation of body fat combined with a dysfunctional skeletal muscle structure and composition, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and anabolic resistance, among other aggravating factors, together represent the seriousness and complexity of treating the metabolic disorder of sarcobesity in aging. For this reason, further studies are needed that encourage the support of therapeutic management.

Article Synopsis
- * The study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of 24 bicycle training sessions under different oxygen conditions (normoxia, recovery hypoxia, and continuous hypoxia) by measuring factors like heart rate, blood lactate levels, and symptoms of acute mountain sickness.
- * Results showed that participants adjusted well, with 93% reporting mild or no symptoms of acute mountain sickness, and differences in peripheral oxygen saturation were significant across the groups, indicating that exercise under hypoxic conditions can be effectively tolerated.
Shark skin is predominantly specialized for swimming and protection, with the dermal denticle being the main structure associated with these abilities. The dermal denticle is a mineral structure with a unique morphology for each species, which allows its use as a taxonomic tool. Few studies have investigated the microscopy aspects of skin and dermal denticles, considering the high diversity of sharks.
