Paraspinal Muscle Changes in Individuals with and without Chronic Low Back Pain over a 4-Month Period: A Longitudinal MRI Study

Author(s): Anstruther M; Sean M; Tétreault P; Fortin M;

Background and Objectives: Previous research has shown associations between atrophy and fatty infiltration of the lumbar paraspinal musculature and low back pain (LBP). However, few studies have examined longitudinal changes in healthy controls and individu...

MVComp toolbox: MultiVariate Comparisons of brain MRI features accounting for common information across metrics

Author(s): Tremblay SA; Alasmar Z; Pirhadi A; Carbonell F; Iturria-Medina Y; Gauthier CJ; Steele CJ;

Multivariate approaches have recently gained in popularity to address the physiological unspecificity of neuroimaging metrics and to better characterize the complexity of biological processes underlying behavior. However, commonly used approaches are biased...

Consistency of electrical source imaging in presurgical evaluation of epilepsy across different vigilance states

Author(s): Avigdor T; Abdallah C; Afnan J; Cai Z; Rammal S; Grova C; Frauscher B;

Objective: The use of electrical source imaging (ESI) in assessing the source of interictal epileptic discharges (IEDs) is gaining increasing popularity in presurgical work-up of patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsy. While vigilance affects the abili...

NSF evaluation of gadolinium biodistribution in renally impaired rats: Using novel metabolic Gd2O3 nanoparticles coated with β-cyclodextrin (Gd2O3@PCD) in MR molecular imaging

Author(s): Ashouri H; Alam NR; Khoobi M; Haghgoo S; Rasouli Z; Gholami M;

The use of conventional gadolinium(Gd)-based contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) poses a significant risk of Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF) syndrome in patients with impaired renal function (grades 4 and 5). To address this issue, a new...

Decreased long-range temporal correlations in the resting-state functional magentic resonance imaging blood-oxygen-level-dependent signal reflect motor sequence learning up to 2 weeks following training

Author(s): Jäger AP; Bailey A; Huntenburg JM; Tardif CL; Villringer A; Gauthier CJ; Nikulin V; Bazin PL; Steele CJ;...

Decreased long-range temporal correlations (LRTC) in brain signals can be used to measure cognitive effort during task execution. Here, we examined how learning a motor sequence affects long-range ...

Effect of aquatic exercise versus standard care on paraspinal and gluteal muscles morphology in individuals with chronic low back pain: a randomized controlled trial protocol

Author(s): Rosenstein B; Montpetit C; Vaillancourt N; Dover G; Khalini-Mahani N; Weiss C; Papula LA; Melek A; Fortin M;...

Background: Low back pain (LBP) is one of the most disabling diseases and a major health issue. Despite the evidence of a link between paraspinal and gluteal muscle dysfunction and LBP, it is unkno...

Description:

With increasing adiposity in obesity, adipose tissue macrophages contribute to adipose tissue malfunction and increased circulating proinflammatory cytokines. The chronic low-grade inflammation that occurs in obesity ultimately gives rise to a state of metainflammation that increases the risk of metabolic disease. To date, only lifestyle and surgical interventions have been shown to be somewhat effective at reversing the negative consequences of obesity and restoring adipose tissue homeostasis. Exercise, dietary interventions, and bariatric surgery result in immunomodulation, and for some individuals their effects are significant with or without weight loss. Robust evidence suggests that these interventions reduce chronic inflammation, in part, by affecting macrophage infiltration and promoting a phenotypic switch from the M1- to M2-like macrophages. The purpose of this review is to discuss the impact of dietary fatty acids, exercise, and bariatric surgery on cellular characteristics affecting adipose tissue macrophage presence and phenotypes in obesity.
