Abstract Sepsis is a severe systemic inflammatory response to infection associated with acute and chronic neurocognitive consequences, including an increased risk of later-life dementia. In a lipopolysaccharide-induced rat sepsis model, we have demonstrated neuroinflammation, cortical amyloid-beta plaque deposition, and increased whole brain levels of phosphorylated tau. Hippocampal abnormalities, particularly those of the dentate gyrus, are seen in Alzheimer’s disease and age-related...

AbstractThe majority of patients with renal cell carcinoma develop recurrence within 5 years following radical nephrectomy. Very late sole local recurrence beyond 10 years is rare, and all reported cases had clear cell histology. Surgical resection of local recurrence remains the best option for disease management. This case opens the way for further studying the rare histological variants of renal cancer and to encourage prolonged follow-up and offering surgery as the best option for managing these...

AbstractGallstone ileus is an uncommon complication of cholelithiasis but an established cause of mechanical bowel obstruction in the elderly. Perforation of the small intestine proximal to the obstructing gallstone is rare, only a handful of cases having been reported. Management is mainly surgical, but conservative treatment is occasionally appropriate. We report the case of an 86-year-old female who presented with a clinical picture of bowel obstruction, proven to be related to gallstone ileus...

Key points Insulin is known to activate the sympathetic nervous system centrally. A mechanical stimulus to tissues activates the sympathetic nervous system via thin fibre afferents. Evidence suggests that insulin modulates putative mechano‐sensitive channels in the dorsal root ganglion neurons of these afferents. Here we report a novel finding that insulin augments the mechanical responsiveness of thin fibre afferents not only at dorsal root ganglion but also muscle tissue levels. Our data suggest...

Key points Cellular communication occurs between endothelial cells and skeletal muscle satellite cells and is mitogenic for both cell types under normal conditions. Skeletal muscle atrophy and endothelial cell dysfunction occur in tandem in cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes and aging. We investigated how induction of endothelial cell dysfunction via high glucose treatments impacts growth and differentiation of human skeletal muscle satellite cells in vitro. Secreted factors from high...

Abstract A lot of attention has been paid to wearable inertial sensors regarded as an alternative solution for outdoor human motion tracking. Relevant joint angles can only be calculated from anatomical orientations, but they are negatively impacted by soft tissue artifact (STA) defined as skin motion with respect to the underlying bone; the accuracy of measured joint angle during movement is affected by the ongoing misalignment of the sensor. In this work, a new sensor-to-segment...

The controller was evaluated in 73 feedback control experiments involving 49 participants. Performance and stability...

Abstract Self-management of blood glucose level is part and parcel of diabetes treatment, which involves invasive, painful, and uncomfortable methods. A proper non-invasive blood glucose monitor (NIBGM) is therefore desirable to deal better with it. Microwave resonators can potentially be used for such a purpose. Following the positive results from an in vitro previous work, a portable device based upon a microwave resonator was developed and assessed in a multicenter proof of...

Abstract Previous studies have suggested that skilled athletes may show a specific muscle activation pattern with a lower antagonist coactivation level. Based on the point, we hypothesize that the coupling of antagonistic muscles may be different between badminton players and non-skilled individuals during exercises. The current work was designed to verify the hypothesis. Ten male college students and eight male badminton players performed three maximal voluntary isometric contractions...
