Image-guided Interventions for Core Muscle Injury and Other Disorders in the Pubic Symphysis.

Radiographics

February 2025

Department of Medical Imaging, The Ottawa Hospital, 501 Smyth Rd, Ottawa, ON, Canada K1H 8L6 (D.V.F., J.L.); Department of Radiology, Radiation Oncology and Medical Physics, Faculty of Medicine, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada (D.V.F., J.L.); Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada (D.V.F., J.L.); and Department of Radiology, St. Paul's Hospital, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada (T.M.).

Formerly termed or , core muscle injury (CMI) encompasses abnormality of structures within the so-called core, which is essentially the hip, abdomen, and pubis. Compared with data on image-guided procedures of other joints, information regarding procedures performed to address CMI and other disorders of the pubic symphysis is lacking. These procedures can be daunting given the joint's small size, surrounding critical neurovascular structures, and three-dimensional anatomy.

Aims: This study evaluated the effects of circuit resistance training (CRT), a vegetarian/Mediterranean diet (VegMedD), and empagliflozin on Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) in older adults with Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM).

Methods: 67 participants from CEV-65 trial (≥65 years, 61 % female) were randomly assigned to CRT, VegMedD, or empagliflozin for 10 weeks. Assessments included RMR, medical, metabolic, nutritional, anthropometric and functional measurements.

Introduction: Inter-set rest intervals are essential to reduce muscle fatigue and increase the total amount of volume of resistance training. Static stretching and walking may increase muscle blood flow and promote recovery during inter-set rest intervals. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of 20 seconds of static stretching and walking during inter-set rest intervals of leg extension exercises on the number of repetitions to exhaustion, total amount of volume, and flexibility of the quadriceps (joint range of motion and muscle hardness) in untrained healthy males.

Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC), including pre-conditioning (RIPC, before the ischemic event), per-conditioning (RIPerC, during the ischemic event), and post-conditioning (RIPostC, after the ischemic event), protects the liver in animal hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injuries models. However, several questions regarding the optimal timing of intervention and administration protocols remain unanswered. Therefore, the preclinical evidence on RIC in the HIRI models was systematically reviewed and meta-analyzed in the present review to provide constructive and helpful information for future works.

Predicting Survival Outcomes for Patients with Ovarian Cancer Using National Cancer Registry Data from Taiwan: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Womens Health Rep (New Rochelle)

January 2025

Institute of Epidemiology and Preventive Medicine, Department of Public Health, College of Public Health, National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan.

Background: Ovarian cancer is one of the top seven causes of cancer deaths. Incidence of ovarian cancer varies by ethnicity, where Asian women demonstrate lower incidence rates than non-Hispanic Blacks and Whites. Survival prediction models for ovarian cancer have been developed for Caucasians and Black populations using national databases; however, whether these models work for Asians is unclear.
