AI Article Synopsis
- The study explored how the drive for muscularity (DM) affects body comparison and social physique anxiety in college students.
- Higher DM levels led to more body comparisons, particularly in weight and muscle areas, which increased social physique anxiety.
- The findings were consistent for both men and women and related to established body image theories.
Article Abstract
The presented study tested a model of the relationship between the drive for muscularity (DM), three aspects of body comparison (general, weight-, and muscle-related), and social physique anxiety in college men and women. The findings demonstrated that those with higher levels of DM engaged in more frequent body-related comparisons in all three areas. Greater frequency of both Weight- and Muscle-Related Body Comparison was then predictive of higher levels of social physique anxiety. Constraints placed on the path coefficients showed that the association between DM and Muscle-Related Comparisons was significantly stronger than the association between DM and Weight-Related Comparisons. The model was similar for both genders. The results from the structural models were discussed in terms of Cash's (2002) cognitive-behavioral model of body image and the dual pathway model of boys' and men's body image (Jones & Crawford, 2005).

Background: Previous studies have separately suggested a possible association between the vitamin exposure, blood biochemical indicators, and bone density. Our study aimed to investigate the relationship between vitamin exposure serum concentrations, blood biochemical indicator serum concentrations, and BMC and BMD using the NHANES 2017-2018 nutrient survey data. This population-based cross-sectional study aimed to explore these associations.

Automated extraction of actionable details of recommendations for additional imaging (RAIs) from radiology reports could facilitate tracking and timely completion of clinically necessary RAIs and thereby potentially reduce diagnostic delays. To assess the performance of large-language models (LLMs) in extracting actionable details of RAIs from radiology reports. This retrospective single-center study evaluated reports of diagnostic radiology examinations performed across modalities and care settings within five subspecialties (abdominal imaging, musculoskeletal imaging, neuroradiology, nuclear medicine, thoracic imaging) in August 2023.

Nitrenes (R-N) have been subject to a large body of experimental and theoretical studies. The fundamental reactivity of this important class of transient intermediates has been attributed to their electronic structures, particularly the accessibility of triplet vs singlet states. In contrast, electronic structure trends along the heavier pnictinidene analogues (R-Pn; Pn = P-Bi) are much less systematically explored.

Aging is a multi-organ disease, yet the traditional approach has been to study each organ in isolation. Such organ-specific studies have provided invaluable information regarding its pathomechanisms. However, an overall picture of the whole-body network (WBN) during aging is still incomplete.
