Abstract
Introduction
This study aimed to explore the impact of COVID-19 on strength performance in highly trained athletes.
Method
A force plate was employed to measure squat jump height (SJH), counter-movement jump height (CMJH), and drop jump reactive strength index (DJRSI) in 27 highly...
The group will work to develop guidance about Long Covid and how psychologists contribute to rehabilitation, treatment and support.
Dr Faith Martin, one of the group leads, said:
"Around 2 million adults are known to be living with Long Covid in the UK. It is vital that we work with experts...
In the multicenter observational study, conducted across 13 hospitals in Spain and Italy, Dr. Enric Monreal and his team found that elevated serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) levels—a protein indicating nerve cell damage—at the onset of MS can predict both relapse-associated worsening (RAW)...
I can't find the study but does the vagus nerve have any correlation? Is it the missing connection between the hormone epinephrine outside the brain and the neurotransmitter norepinephrine inside the brain?
I had an 'autonomic event' during a procedure recently and although I felt...
Justin Carter, 33, nearly died after cardiac event that primarily affects women
When Justine Carter stepped on the treadmill for a quick energy boost last May, she never thought it would lead to a near-death experience.
The Utah mother, 33, was fit and healthy— but 12 minutes into her walk...
Abstract
Background: Hyaluronan is an emerging target for COVID-19 and lung fibrosis. In an open-label study the hyaluronidase bovhyaluronidase azoximer (BA) was associated with improved pulmonary function and exercise tolerance in patients with pulmonary sequelae of COVID-19.
In this...
Noravax has been approved by Health Canada.

Abstract
Gene drives are genetic modifications designed to propagate efficiently through a population. Most applications rely on homologous recombination during sexual reproduction in diploid organisms such as insects, but we recently developed a gene drive in herpesviruses that relies on...
ABSTRACT
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is a highly prevalent human pathogen that causes a range of clinical manifestations, including oral and genital herpes, keratitis, encephalitis, and disseminated neonatal disease.
Despite its significant health and economic burden, there is...

Abstract
A single session of aerobic or resistance training transiently enhances cognitive function, making it a valuable strategy for dementia prevention in the older people. Despite its acknowledged benefits, the precise mechanism behind exercise-induced cognitive improvement remains...
Drink 3 cups of coffee every day for cardiometabolic health !
Here is the summary of this recent paper on benefit of coffee: • Cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CM) is a growing health problem, where people suffer from at least two serious conditions like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, or...
Abstract
Context
Cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CM) is an increasing public health concern. Previous observational studies have suggested inverse associations between coffee, tea, and caffeine intake and risks of individual cardiometabolic diseases; however, their associations with CM and...
The authors point out that pregnancy is a period of profound hormonal and physiological changes.
The authors did something incredible by mapping neuroanatomical changes in an individual from preconception through two years postpartum.
- There were pronounced decreases in gray matter volume...
Abstract
Pregnancy is a period of profound hormonal and physiological changes experienced by millions of women annually, yet the neural changes unfolding in the maternal brain throughout gestation are not well studied in humans.
Leveraging precision imaging, we mapped neuroanatomical changes...
It took 5.5+ years in my case after sudden viral onset. I did have odd muscle sensation after small amounts of exercise but nothing else, and if I did too much my legs muscles would get fatigued. I wasn't experiencing delayed PEM or cognitive issues.
