Hibernoma is a rare benign but metabolically active tumor of brown fat origin, that can have cross-sectional imaging characteristics similar to those of other fat-containing tumors, such as lipomas and liposarcomas, and its presence can lead to false-positive interpretation by exhibiting increased F18-fluorodeoxyglucose (F18-FDG) activity. A 46-year-old woman was diagnosed with dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans underwent F18-FDG positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for detecting recurrence after excision. F18-FDG PET/CT showed incidental intense uptake in the back in addition to increased F18-FDG uptake at the previous lesion site. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of intense F18-FDG uptake in hibernoma in Korea.

We investigated the extracellular and intracellular digestion of bivalves employing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Ruditapes philippinarum clams and Mytilus galloprovincialis mussels were incubated in seawater containing a contrast reagent (GdDTPA) at 20°C. The digestive systems, from the esophagus to the rectum, were visualized at a high signal intensity by the T1-weighted MRI.

This study aims to determine the validity of the linear critical power (CP) and Peronnet models to estimate the power output associated with the second ventilatory threshold (VT2) and the maximal aerobic power (MAP) using two-time trials. Nineteen recreational runners (10 males and 9 females and maximum oxygen uptake: 53.0 ± 4.

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is selectively permeable, but it also poses significant challenges for treating CNS diseases. Low-intensity focused ultrasound (LiFUS), paired with microbubbles is a promising, non-invasive technique for transiently opening the BBB, allowing enhanced drug delivery to the central nervous system (CNS). However, the downstream physiological effects following BBB opening, particularly secondary responses, are not well understood.

Due to the endocrine toxicity, neurotoxic, and reproductive toxicity to organisms, the sources and risks of brominated organic pollutants have attracted widespread attention. However, knowledge gaps remain in the bromination processes of emerging phenolic pollutants in plants, which may increase the potential health risk associated with food exposure. Our study discovered that light induced generation and accumulation of more toxic brominated organic compounds (Br-org) in lettuce leaves under the stress of acetaminophen (ACE) than that without light, as evidenced by an increase in C-Br bond intensity in FTIR analysis.

This study assessed the cardiorespiratory fitness, running biomechanics, muscle architecture and training characteristics of a 76-year-old female runner who currently holds the world record 1500m to marathon in the women's 75-79 age category. maximal oxygen uptake (V̇O), running economy (RE), lactate threshold (LT) and lactate turnpoint (LTP), maximal heart rate (HR), and running biomechanics were measured during a discontinuous treadmill protocol followed by a maximal incremental test. Muscle architecture was assessed using ultrasound.
