Published: October 2021

Systemic autoimmune myopathies (or idiopathic inflammatory myopathies) are a wide group of rare rheumatic diseases characterized by muscle weakness due to muscle inflammation. Recent evidence has continually reinforced the relevance of the perception of pain and fatigue as parameters of notable contribution to reducing the quality of life of these patients. However, due to the multidimensional characteristic of these variables, few studies address the effects of pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies, such as exercise training on these variables. With regard to patients with systemic autoimmune myopathies, the outcomes related to the effects of exercise training are focused on muscle strength and endurance, few explore the effects on the perception of pain and fatigue. Given this, studies that review systematically the available evidence of the effects of exercise training on these perceptions can contribute to management of this parameter in clinical practice. Given this context, the present study aims to review systematically the effectiveness of exercise training specifically on the perception of pain and fatigue.

Background: Concurrent exercise (CE), an emerging exercise modality characterized by sequential bouts of aerobic (AE) and resistance exercise (RE), has demonstrated acute benefits on executive functions (EFs) and neuroelectric P3 amplitude. However, the effect of acute CE on inhibitory control, a sub-component of EFs, and P3 amplitude remains inconclusive. Moreover, exploring the mechanisms underlying the effects of acute exercise on EFs contributes to scientific comprehension, with lactate recognized as a crucial candidate positively correlated with EFs.

Objective: To investigate the prospective associations between age and the risk of low back disorders (LBD), dorsal disorders (DD), and cervical disorders (CD), and to identify a potential age-threshold for increased risk of back disorders.

Methods: Prospective cohort from the UK Biobank comprising adults with no history of back disorders. We examined different ages and their association with the risk of back disorders derived from diagnoses of hospital registers.

Background: Cell culture studies play an important role in addressing fundamental scientific questions. However, inadequate reporting of these studies results in a lack of transparency and reproducibility. Recognizing the need for improvement, several ongoing efforts, such as CRIS guidelines and the ICLAC checklist, are focused on enhancing best practices for in vitro studies.

To investigate cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), body composition, health behaviors, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in adolescent and young adult cancer survivors (AYA-CS) compared with age-matched counterparts without a cancer diagnosis. This cross-sectional study recruited participants aged 15-25 years at the time of their cancer diagnosis and ≥ 5 years post-treatment. Participants completed cardiopulmonary exercise testing, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, food diaries, physical activity (PA), fatigue, and HRQoL questionnaires.
