Introduction: musculoskeletal health has become of increasing interest due to the ageing of the population and the increase in the prevalence of associated diseases. Objective: analyze scientific evidence on the role of nutrition and diet in maintaining muscle and bone health and preventing related diseases. Methods: review of the scientific literature on nutrition and diet in maintaining muscle and bone health. Results and discussion: dietary components such as protein, calcium, magnesium, vitamin D, C, K, B12, among others, have been positively associated with the maintenance of muscle and bone. The Mediterranean diet could slow the onset of sarcopenia and osteoporosis. Conclusion: nutrition is crucial for muscle and bone health.

Glucocorticoids and androgens affect each other in several ways. In metabolic organs such as adipose tissue and the liver, androgens enhance glucocorticoid-induced insulin resistance and promote fat accumulation in male mice. However, the direct contribution of the androgen receptor (AR) to these effects is unknown.

The digastric muscle is a suprahyoid muscle that is composed of an anterior belly and a posterior belly, which originate from the first and second pharyngeal arches, respectively, and they are innervated by the nerves of these arches. The digastric muscles are involved in the elevation of the hyoid bone and depression of the mandible during mastication, speech, and swallowing. In this report, we present the rare case of bilateral accessory anterior belly of the digastric muscles (ABDMs) that originated from the digastric fossa, medial to the anterior bellies.

Sarcopenia is an age-related muscle disorder that increases risks of adverse clinical outcomes, but its treatments are still limited. Gut microbiota is potentially associated with sarcopenia, and its role is still unclear. To investigate the role of gut microbiota in sarcopenia, we first compared gut microbiota and metabolites composition in old participants with or without sarcopenia.

The objective of this mini review is to discuss the role of musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSK US) in identification and treatment of pain generators in cervical spine in patients presenting with cervicogenic headache (CEH). CEH is a secondary headache arising from cervical nociceptive structures emerging from facet joints, intervertebral discs, nerves, muscles, fascia and ligaments. It presents a complex challenge in clinical management.
