Creatine formulations and repeated sprint training: effects on physical and physiological adaptations in soccer players during the short-term preparation phase.

BACKGROUND: This research examined the impact of various creatine (Cr) supplementation formulations during a 4-week preparatory phase on the efficacy of repeated sprint training (RST) and on improvements in physical and physiological performance in male soccer athletes. METHODS: A total of forty collegiate young soccer players volunteered for the study. They were randomly divided into four groups: creatine monohydrate (Cr-Mon, n = 10), creatine ethyl ester (Cr-Ee, n = 10), creatine hydrochloride (Cr-Hcl, n = 10), and placebo (PL, n = 10). All athletes engaged in a 4-week training intervention, three times a week (i.e. 12 sessions), and physical (countermovement vertical jump [CMVJ], 20-m sprint, and L-run) and physiological (Wingate anaerobic power and incremental exercise tests) performance were assessed both before and after the training period. RESULTS: All training groups improved physical and physiological performance following the 4-week intervention period (p < 0.05). Additionally, the groups receiving the Cr supplement exhibited significantly greater changes (p = 0.001) in physical performance, peak power output, and fatigue index compared to the PL group. However, no significant differences were found among the groups regarding mean power output and VO2max. Notably, the Ee and Hcl forms of Cr showed superior gains (p < 0.05) in physical performance and peak power compared to the Mon form after the 4-week intervention. CONCLUSIONS: The results underscore the importance of Cr ingestion in enhancing adaptations for short-term physical performance tasks, highlighting the effectiveness of the Ee and Hcl forms in further improving the CMVJ, 20-m sprint, L-run, and peak power among soccer players during the short-term preparation phase.

Current Diagnostic Pathways for Rheumatoid Arthritis-Associated Interstitial Lung Disease Result in Substantial Underdiagnosis and Excess Mortality: A Multicenter Norwegian Quality Assurance Audit.

OBJECTIVE: Recent guidelines suggest risk-stratified screening for rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD). However, the diagnostic gap between current routine care and this screening approach remains unquantified. We assessed currently detected RA-ILD in Norway, benchmarking findings against recent screening-based estimates of the true disease burden. METHODS: This 10-year quality assurance audit across six centers covered 43% of the Norwegian population. RA-ILD cases identified via ICD-10 codes were confirmed by manual chart review. Prevalence was calculated relative to a registry-derived total RA background population and benchmarked against a 10% expected target derived from recent prospective studies. Mortality was compared to a 3:1 frequency-matched RA control group using Cox proportional hazards regression. RESULTS: Among 17,305 RA patients, 188 (1.1%) had verified ILD; when benchmarked against an expected 10% prevalence, this indicates an 89% diagnostic gap in routine clinical care. Mean age at ILD detection was 67.5 years. Most cases (93.6%) possessed ≥2 established risk factors for RA-ILD: 93.6% were seropositive, 76.1% had smoking histories, while RA onset age ≥60 and persistently increased inflammatory laboratory markers were present in over half of patients. RA-ILD was associated with significantly increased mortality; 66 (4.1/100 person-years) deaths occurred in the RA-ILD group vs. 120 (2.3/100 person-years) among RA controls (HR 1.77; 95% CI: 1.31-2.39, p<0.001). CONCLUSION: When comparing to prevalence expectations, current routine care may leave a substantial proportion of cases undetected, primarily capturing a high-risk phenotype with excess mortality. Systematic, risk-stratified screening is needed to bridge this diagnostic gap, aiming to enable earlier intervention.

Ethiopia missed opportunities for vaccination study: Cluster-randomized evaluation of 5-dose measles vaccine vials and a flexible open-vial policy, 2021-2022.

INTRODUCTION: In 2024, an estimated 95,000 people died from measles globally, largely from suboptimal coverage with the measles-containing vaccine (MCV). Health workers may defer vaccinating eligible children to avoid wasting doses from 10-dose MCV vials, which must be discarded six hours after opening. These missed opportunities for vaccination (MOV) reduce coverage and timeliness. Ethiopia, which provides MCV at 9 and 15 months, considered switching to 5-dose vials. METHODS: We conducted a 15-month, randomized controlled trial with a nested cross-sectional design in Ethiopia. Sixty woredas were randomized to: (1) policy-only, instructing health workers to open 10-dose vials for any number of eligible children, with additional stock for increased wastage; (2) 5-dose switch, combining this policy with replacement of 10-dose by 5-dose vials; or (3) control (routine 10-dose practice). Household and health-facility surveys at baseline and endline assessed effects on first-dose (MCV1) and second-dose (MCV2) coverage, MCV1 timeliness, and wastage. Generalized estimating equation models estimated net intervention effects versus control. We also estimated the government cost of a nationwide 5-dose switch. RESULTS: MCV1 coverage was similar between policy-only and control (adjusted risk difference [ARD] = -1%, 95%CI: -17%, 15%), with no significant differences in MCV1 timeliness or MCV2 coverage. In the 5-dose switch group, MCV1 coverage changed little (ARD = 1%, 95%CI: -17%, 18%), but timely MCV1 at 9 months (ARD = 18%, 95%CI: 7%, 28%) and MCV2 coverage (ARD = 17%, 95%CI: 1%, 34%) rose significantly, and wastage fell (ARD = -7%, 95%CI: -14%, -1%). By endline, 29% of 5-dose health workers opened vials ≥10 times monthly (none in control); caregivers in both intervention groups reported 11% fewer measles-related MOVs. A nationwide 5-dose switch was estimated to save 17% in procurement cost per fully vaccinated (two-dose) child. CONCLUSIONS: The combined 5-dose intervention improved MCV1 timeliness and MCV2 coverage and reduced wastage, addressing a key operational barrier and potentially supporting measles elimination in Ethiopia.

Loneliness and Personality: Noise- and Bias-Free True Correlations Between Loneliness and the Big Five Personality Domains.

OBJECTIVE: While loneliness is intertwined with many mental and physical health problems, its origins are not yet well understood. We sought to better understand its link to personality in a large national cohort. METHODS: Combining self- and informant ratings in multiple samples, we conducted the largest study to date to examine loneliness' true correlations (rtrues) with the Big Five personality traits, free of single-method biases and transient and random errors. RESULTS: Across three samples (Estonian-speaking, N = 20,893; Russian-speaking, N = 762; English-speaking, N = 599), we found a strong relationship between loneliness and Neuroticism (rtrue = 0.60-0.70). Loneliness also had robust but much weaker associations with Extraversion (rtrue = -0.20 to -0.30), and only weak associations (rtrue = 0.10 to -0.20) with Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, and Openness. Collectively, the Big Five accounted for over 50% of loneliness variance. In a subsample, the associations were only slightly smaller longitudinally over approximately 10 years. CONCLUSION: Overall, feeling lonely is more closely related to Neuroticism than previously understood, and the association endures over time.

Health risk assessment of inorganic arsenic: an umbrella review.

Inorganic arsenic (iAs) is a toxic environmental pollutant linked to serious health risks, prompting global regulatory efforts. This study identifies major health conditions associated with iAs exposure using text network analysis, and assesses health risk assessments through an umbrella review and dose-response analysis. It synthesizes previous systematic reviews to offer a broader perspective on iAs-related health effects. An optimized text network analysis-based search strategy was applied across multiple databases to identify relevant systematic reviews. An umbrella review framework was employed to synthesize and reinterpret findings across systematic reviews. The methodological quality of included systematic reviews was assessed using the A MeaSurement Tool to Assess systematic Reviews 2 tool. Extracted data on study characteristics, exposure levels, and risk estimates were analyzed to evaluate the dose-response relationship between iAs exposure and health outcomes. From 922 systematic reviews, 36 were included and categorized into 10 health condition groups. For example, seven SRs found a significant dose-response relationship between iAs and bladder cancer, with one systematic review reporting relative risks of 2.70, 4.20, and 5.80 at 10, 50, and 150 µg/L, respectively. Individual study analysis further showed that each 10 µg/L increase in iAs raised bladder cancer risk by 3.11 % (p=0.003). iAs exposure is associated with hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and adverse fetal outcomes. Dose-dependent increases in bladder cancer, lung cancer, and hypertension risks were observed. These findings support more precise health risk assessments and regulatory strategies.

The effects of cold temperature on the development, microbiome, and transcriptome of the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis.

Thermal conditions impact essentially all aspects of the physiology for ectotherms. While the effects of high temperatures have been widely studied, cold temperature effects on aquatic invertebrates and their microbial communities have been poorly characterized. To determine the diverse effects of exposure to cold temperatures, we assessed acute and long-term impacts of ecologically relevant low temperatures on the development, microbiome, and gene expression of the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis. Two hours post fertilization, embryos were exposed to temperatures from 4°C to 35°C and development rate to the juvenile stage was quantified. We found temperature impacts the development rate of embryos, where lower temperatures extended development time and resulted in mortality below 10°C. For both microbiome and host transcriptomic responses, anemones were held at 20°C, 10°C, and 0°C and compared at 24 hours and 7 days. Extended exposures to colder temperatures caused restructuring of the host-associated microbiome, with the loss of common taxonomic groups from the class Bacteroidia and Bacilli. Lastly, cold stress induced significant changes in gene expression, which were more pronounced at the 10°C than 0°C but showed little change over time in each temperature. Interestingly, expression of genes associated with innate immunity were among the most differentially expressed genes including heat shock proteins and innate immune genes providing a potential host-imposed mechanism to explain the shift in the microbiome. Overall, cold temperatures have broad effects on many facets of this sea anemone and its microbial community and indicate the importance of cold temperature events when characterizing how ectotherms acclimate to thermal variation.

Rare clinical complications following scorpion envenomation worldwide: A systematic review.

Scorpion envenomation is an important public health problem in many tropical and subtropical regions and may result in rare but life-threatening grade III complications involving multiple organ systems. This systematic review synthesizes published articles from 2000 to 2025 that describe uncommon, severe clinical manifestations following scorpion stings. A total of 71 rare clinical complications were identified, encompassing cardiovascular, neurological, respiratory, renal, hematological, ocular, dermatological, and other systemic manifestations. Cardiovascular complications were the most frequently reported, whereas neurological complications exhibited the greatest clinical diversity. Mesobuthus tamulus and Hemiscorpius lepturus were most commonly associated with severe complications, and children younger than 10 years appeared to be at increased risk of serious neurological involvement. These findings highlight the remarkable clinical heterogeneity of grade III scorpion envenomation and emphasize the importance of early recognition, species-specific clinical awareness, and timely management to reduce severe outcomes in endemic regions.

Antiadalimumab Antibodies in Patients With Inflammatory Ocular Diseases: Incidence and Clinical Outcomes.

PURPOSE: To determine the incidence, effect on adalimumab drug levels, and clinical consequences of antiadalimumab antibody formation, and to assess potential risk factors. DESIGN: Retrospective clinical cohort study. PARTICIPANTS: One hundred twenty-eight patients treated with adalimumab who underwent antiadalimumab antibody monitoring. METHODS: Beginning October 2023, regularly scheduled antiadalimumab antibody and adalimumab level testing was begun. Using staggered entry analysis, anchored observation to treatment initiation, incidence was calculated. Time-updated models evaluated risk factors for antiadalimumab antibody formation. MAIN OUTCOME: Incidence of antiadalimumab antibodies. RESULTS: Antiadalimumab antibodies developed in 37 of 128 patients for a rate of 0.077 per person-year (PY) (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.055/PY, 0.104/PY). Median serum adalimumab concentrations were significantly lower in antiadalimumab antibody-positive blood samples (2.6 µg/mL; interquartile range 0.8, 7.0) than in antibody-negative samples (10.2 µg/mL; interquartile range 6.9, 15.1), P < .00001. In time-updated analyses, there was a suggestion that concomitant immunosuppression was associated with a reduced risk of antiadalimumab antibodies (odds ratio [OR] 0.64; 95% CI 0.37, 1.10; P = .10) and weekly adalimumab dosing was associated with a reduced risk (OR 0.62; 95% CI 0.42, 0.91; P = .01). Antiadalimumab antibodies were associated with active ocular inflammation (OR 3.68; 95% CI 1.99, 6.82; P < .00001). CONCLUSIONS: Antiadalimumab antibodies occur commonly among patients treated with long-term adalimumab, with a cumulative incidence of nearly 50% by 8 years of therapy. Antibody formation was associated with lower serum adalimumab levels and active ocular inflammation.

Origins and timing of somatic variants in the brain.

Somatic variants accumulate in human brain cells throughout the lifespan. Variant allele fraction has traditionally been used as a proxy for both the developmental timing of somatic variants and their functional effect, based on the assumption that earlier mutations are shared by larger cell populations and therefore have greater potential for severe phenotypes. However, recent discoveries challenge this simplified model. Variables such as developmental bottlenecks, lineage restriction, and cellular and molecular context play critical roles in shaping the distribution and functional impact of somatic variants in the brain. These insights support a shift toward a context-dependent framework for interpreting somatic mosaicism.

Surgical Outcomes after Preoperative Embolization of Primary and Secondary Pelvic Bone Tumors.

PURPOSE: To analyze the technical results and safety of preoperative embolization of pelvic bone tumors. MATERIALS & METHODS: Retrospective study analysis of a cohort of patients who underwent preoperative hypervascular, pelvic bone tumor embolization at the authors' institution between January 2008 and January 2025. Preinterventional data, including clinical, radiological, and laboratory findings, procedural angiographic and surgical data, and clinical follow-up data were collected from the patients' electronic medical records. Patient follow-ups were conducted until March 2025 or until the patient's death. RESULTS: Twenty-three patients (11 male patients; mean age of 42 years) underwent uneventful , preoperative embolization for primary (n=15) or metastatic (n=8) pelvic bone tumor resection. A mean of 2.3 tumor feeding arteries were preoperatively embolized with complete tumor blush disappearance in n=13 (56.5%) or near-complete tumor blush disappearance with less than 10% residual tumor blush visualized in n=10 patients (43.4%). Surgical intervention was performed with a mean of 1.7 days after embolization and was associated with a mean of 1.88 L perioperative blood loss. CONCLUSION: Preoperative pelvic tumor embolization is a safe procedure with a mean of more than two feeding arteries identified and embolized. KEY POINTS: · Preoperative embolization is a safe procedure for pelvic bone tumors.. · Angiography identified a mean of 2.3 tumor feeding arteries embolized.. · Complete preoperative angiographic tumoral devascularization was found in 56% of patients.. · Surgical intervention after preoperative tumor embolization was associated with a mean of 1.88L perioperative blood loss..

Acute Haemodynamic and Perceptual Responses to Graded Intradialytic Exercise in Patients on Maintenance Haemodialysis: A Randomised Crossover Trial.

BACKGROUND: Acute responses to graded intradialytic exercise in people receiving haemodialysis remain incompletely characterised. OBJECTIVES: To examine acute haemodynamic and perceptual responses to graded intradialytic resistance exercise compared with a non-exercise control condition. DESIGN: Randomised crossover trial. PARTICIPANTS: Forty-eight clinically stable adults receiving maintenance haemodialysis. MEASUREMENTS: Participants completed seated control and graded lower-limb resistance exercise targeting Borg category-ratio 10 ratings of 3, 5 and 7. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, heart rate, peripheral oxygen saturation, rating of perceived exertion and acute fatigue were measured before, immediately after and 30 min after each condition. RESULTS: Responses increased progressively with perceived intensity. Compared with control, higher perceived intensity increased systolic blood pressure by 14.9 mmHg (95% confidence interval = 12.7-17.0), diastolic blood pressure by 8.4 mmHg (6.8-10.0), mean arterial pressure by 10.6 mmHg (9.2-12.0) and heart rate by 15.5 beats per minute (12.9-18.1). Rating of perceived exertion increased by 6.7 points (95% confidence interval = 6.3-7.1). Mean peripheral oxygen saturation remained between 95.1% and 97.5%, with no value below 90%. Recorded symptoms occurred in 13 out of 48 higher perceived-intensity sessions; no serious adverse events occurred. CONCLUSIONS: Graded, rating-guided intradialytic resistance exercise produced clear acute dose-response haemodynamic and perceptual changes. These findings support supervised individualisation of acute exercise dose but do not establish long-term safety or superiority of higher perceived-intensity training.

Molecular mechanisms underlying umami taste perception: A DIA-based proteomic analysis of Agrocybe aegerita peptides.

The mechanisms underlying the modulation of the salivary perception of umami peptides remain poorly understood. Herein, three umami peptides (DDL, DEL, and ENG) obtained from Agrocybe aegerita were used to investigate the regulatory role of saliva in umami taste perception via a combined approach involving sensory evaluation and proteomics analysis based on 4D-DIA technology. The results revealed that umami intensity peaked at 10 s after ingestion and was accompanied by a significant increase in saliva secretion (p < 0.05). Further proteomics analysis revealed that lactotransferrin and proline-rich proteins are closely associated with the sensory perception of umami peptides. Differentially expressed proteins were mainly enriched in pathways related to saliva secretion and proteasome function. This study provides new insights from the perspectives of salivary proteomics and dynamic salivary secretion, contributing to a deeper understanding of the mechanisms by which saliva regulates umami perception.
