BOLD Long-Range Temporal Correlations Reflect Changes in Language and Depression Across Intensive Aphasia Therapy

Author(s): Jäger AP; Steele CJ; Dreyer FR; Osterloh MR; Sadlon A; Nikulin V; Mohr B; Pulvermüller F;

Background: Intensive language-action therapy treats language deficits and depressive symptoms in chronic poststroke aphasia, yet the underlying neural mechanisms remain underexplored. Long-range temporal correlations (LRTCs) in blood oxygenation level-depe...

Development and Application of Children s Sex- and Age-Specific Fat-Mass and Muscle-Mass Reference Curves From Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry Data for Predicting Cardiometabolic Risk

Author(s): Saputra ST; Van Hulst A; Henderson M; Brugiapaglia S; Faustini C; Kakinami L;

Background: A dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-derived phenotype classification based on fat mass and muscle mass has been developed for adults. We extended this to a paediatric population. Methods: Children's (= 17 years) DXA data in NHANES (n =...

The age of obesity onset affects changes in subcutaneous adipose tissue macrophages and T cells after weight loss

Author(s): Murphy J; Morais JA; Tsoukas MA; Cooke AB; Daskalopoulou SS; Santosa S;

Introduction: Adipose tissue inflammation, driven in part by immune cells, may contribute to the elevated type 2 diabetes risk in adults with childhood-onset obesity (CO) compared to those with adult-onset obesity (AO). Weight loss can modify adipose tissue...

The longitudinal effects of global and regional brain measurements on cognitive abilities

Author(s): Hosseininasabnajar F; Kakinami L;

Loss of brain tissues and cognitive abilities are natural processes of aging, but longitudinal studies are limited. We explored the longitudinal association between global and regional brain measures with cognitive abilities among individuals with normal co...

Assessment of cognitive load in the context of neurosurgery

Author(s): Di Giovanni DA; Kersten-Oertel M; Drouin S; Collins DL;

Purpose: Image-guided neurosurgery demands precise depth perception to minimize cognitive burden during intricate navigational tasks. Existing evaluation methods rely heavily on subjective user feedback, which can be biased and inconsistent. This study uses...

Description:

Adult males and females have markedly different body composition, energy expenditure, and have different degrees of risk for metabolic diseases. A major aspect of metabolic regulation involves the appropriate storage and disposal of glucose and fatty acids. The use of sophisticated calorimetry, tracer, and imaging techniques have provided insight into the complex metabolism of these substrates showing that the regulation of these processes varies tremendously throughout the day, from the overnight fasting condition to meal ingestion, to the effects of physical activity. The sexual dimorphism in substrate metabolism is most readily observed in how fatty acids are stored and mobilized. The objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive and critical summary of the reported sex-differences in the mobilization, oxidation and storage of fat and carbohydrate in adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. We will describe how adipose tissue lipolysis differs between sexes, and how this varies between fed, fasted and exercise conditions. We will also review what is known about endogenous and exogenous fatty acid storage in adipose tissue and muscle, as well as how oxidation compares between men and women in response to exercise. What has been learned about the cellular level regulation of these processes will be described. Although glucose metabolism exhibits fewer differences between men and women, we will also review the existing knowledge on this topic.
