The yellowtail kingfish is a highly active and fast-growing marine fish with promising potential for aquaculture. In this study, essential insights were gained into the energy economy of this species by heart rate and acceleration logging during a swim-fitness test and a subsequent stress challenge test. Oxygen consumption values of the 600-800 g fish, when swimming in the range of 0.2 up to 1 m·s-1 , were high-between 550 and 800 mg·kg-1 ·h-1 -and the heart rate values-up to 228 bpm-were even among the highest ever measured for fishes...

Primary hyperparathyroidism is rare in children and usually presents with nonspecific symptoms. Ramadan fasting has been reported to unmask the diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism. A 15-year-old boy presented to the clinic for an emergency department follow up visit. He had started Ramadan fasting a week before his presentation to the clinic. He reported unintentional weight loss, abdominal pain, constipation, frequent headaches, exercise intolerance, tiredness, and palpitations. Physical examination was unremarkable except that he looked tired...

Obesity is defined as an abnormal or excessive accumulation of fat that increases the burden of different chronic diseases in the population. It has reached epidemic proportions and is a major risk factor for a variety of diseases, including hypertension, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidaemia, atherosclerosis, and some malignancies. Weight gain is a result of excessive energy intake compared to energy expenditure (energy loss from metabolism and physical exercise). A ketogenic diet has a more useful effect on obesity than other diets...

BACKGROUND: Chronic low-grade inflammatory profile (CLIP) is one of the pathways involved in type 2 diabetes (T2D). Currently, there is limited evidence for ameliorating effects of combined lifestyle interventions on CLIP in type 2 diabetes. We investigated whether a 13-week combined lifestyle intervention, using hypocaloric diet and resistance exercise plus high-intensity interval training with or without consumption of a protein drink, affected CLIP in older adults with T2D. METHODS: In this post-hoc analysis of the PROBE study 114 adults (≥55 years) with obesity and type 2 (pre-)diabetes had measurements of C-reactive protein (CRP), pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-6, tumor-necrosis-factor (TNF)-α, and monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1, anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-10, IL-1 receptor antagonist (RA), and soluble tumor-necrosis-factor receptor (sTNFR)1, adipokines leptin and adiponectin, and glycation biomarkers carboxymethyl-lysine (CML) and soluble receptor for advanced glycation end products (sRAGE) from fasting blood samples...

Cardiovascular Disease (CVD), a term encompassing various disorders affecting the heart and blood vessels, includes coronary artery disease (CAD). CAD is primarily due to the development of atherosclerotic plaques that disrupt blood flow, oxygenation, and nutrient delivery to the myocardium. Risk factors contributing to CAD progression include smoking, hypertension, diabetes mellitus (DM), dyslipidaemia, and obesity. While aerobic exercise (AE) has shown promising results in controlling CVD risk factors, the impact of resistance training (RT) has not been extensively investigated...

The development or remission of diet-induced overweight type 2 diabetes involves many biological changes which occur over very different timescales. Remission, defined by HbA1c <6.5%, or fasting plasma glucose concentration G<126 mg/dl, may be achieved rapidly by following weight loss guidelines. However, remission is often short-term, followed by relapse. Mathematical modelling provides a way of investigating a typical situation, in which patients are advised to lose weight and then maintain fat mass, a slow variable...

INTRODUCTION: Ultrasound-guided placement of Midlines catheters (MCs) is a standard procedure with many benefits for patients. Even if there are some guidelines worldwide, this invasive technique is still taught at the patient's bed and relies on mentoring in many care centers. The performance of this care by novice practitioners raises ethical and quality of care issues mainly because of its risk of complications. This study aimed to propose and assess a simulation-based learning method for the placement of MCs in novice practitioners...

Our previous studies have shown that early exercise intervention after stroke increases neural activity and synaptic plasticity and promotes the recovery of nerve fiber bundle integrity in the brain. However, the effect of exercise on the repair of myelin in the brain and the related mechanism are still unclear. In this study, we randomly divided the rats into three groups. Before and after 28 days of intervention, body weight, nerve function, the infarct size, white matter fiber bundle integrity, and nerve myelin structure and function were observed by measuring body weight, analysis of modified neurological severity score, CatWalk gait analysis, MRI, luxol fast blue staining, immunofluorescence, and transmission electron microscopy...

Interval walking training (IWT) is a free-living, training intervention involving alternating fast and slow walking cycles. IWT is efficacious in improving physical fitness, muscle strength, and reducing factors associated with lifestyle-related diseases. In individuals with type 2 diabetes, IWT improves glycemic control directly through enhanced glucose effectiveness, challenging conventional views on mechanisms behind training-induced improvements in glycemic control. Whereas adherence to IWT in short-term studies is high, ensuring long-term adherence remains a challenge, particularly in populations with chronic diseases and/or overweight/obesity...

We appreciate Dr. Astrada's interest in our recent article (1). Although he raised concern around using BMI as a screening parameter for our study, BMI was not the only "defining parameter" screening criteria in our study. Fasting glucose > 110mg/dL was also a critical exclusion criterion for the study which limits variation in metabolic characteristics in our study cohort. These and other criteria for participation in the study were reported in the original manuscript (2) from which the samples in our current study (1) were obtained...

The wide variation in muscle fibre type distribution across individuals, along with the very different energy consumption rates in slow versus fast muscle fibres, suggests that muscle fibre typology contributes to inter-individual differences in metabolic rate during exercise. However, this has been hard to demonstrate due to the gap between a single muscle fibre and full-body exercises. We investigated the isolated effect of triceps surae muscle contraction velocity on whole-body metabolic rate during cyclic contractions in individuals a priori selected for their predominantly slow (n = 11) or fast (n = 10) muscle fibre typology by means of proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1 H-MRS)...

Physical activity is a promising preventative strategy for Alzheimer's disease: it is associated with lower dementia risk, better cognition, greater brain volume and lower brain beta-amyloid. Blood-based biomarkers have emerged as a low-cost, non-invasive strategy for detecting preclinical Alzheimer's disease, however, there is limited literature examining the effect of exercise (a structured form of physical activity) on blood-based biomarkers. The current study investigated the influence of a 6-month exercise intervention on levels of plasma beta-amyloid (Aβ42, Aβ40, Aβ42/40), phosphorylated tau (p-tau181), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and neurofilament light (NfL) chain in cognitively unimpaired older adults, and as a secondary aim, whether blood-based biomarkers related to cognition...
