Article Abstract

Diabetic muscle infarction (DMI) is a rare complication of poorly controlled type 1 and type 2 diabetes seen mostly in those who have already experienced microvascular complications. Currently, the incidence and prevalence of DMI are difficult to conclude, and there is no clear algorithm or standard of care in managing this condition. Pathogenesis of the microangiopathy of DMI remains unclear. A major finding in this investigation of DMI emphasizes that, within 2-17 weeks, patients who initiate low-dose acetylsalicylic acid, bed rest, and close outpatient follow-up see significant size reduction of lower extremity mass and complete resolution of pain without being subjected to invasive muscle biopsy.

One of the most prevalent metabolic diseases in recent years, type 2 diabetes is now one of the top causes of death globally and a significant risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, the goal of this study is to investigate the impact of HIIT exercises on the levels of specific proteins associated with mitochondrial biogenesis and apoptosis in the heart tissue of male Wistar rats with type 2 diabetes. Animals in diabetic groups were given a high-fat diet and an intraperitoneal injection of STZ to cause diabetes.

Crohn's disease pathology is modeled in TNF mice that overproduce tumor necrosis factor (TNF) to drive disease through TNF receptors. An alternative ligand for TNF receptors, soluble LTα, is produced by B cells, but has received scarce attention because LTα also partners with LTβ to generate membrane-tethered LTαβ that promotes tertiary lymphoid tissue-another feature of Crohn's disease. We hypothesized that B cell-derived LTαβ would critically affect ileitis in TNF mice.

Performance and Perceptual Responses to Cluster Sets in Pneumatic-Resistance Exercises: Impact of Exercise Selection, Sex, and Strength.

Int J Sports Physiol Perform

September 2025

Discipline of Exercise and Sport Science, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine and Health, University of Sydney, Camperdown, NSW, Australia.

Purpose: This study examined the effects of cluster sets (CS) versus traditional sets (TRAD) on performance and perceptual responses during pneumatic chest press (CP) and leg press (LP). Exercise-specific differences and the influence of sex and strength were also explored.

Methods: Forty-seven recreationally resistance-trained young adults (23 male and 24 female) performed CP and LP at 70% 1-repetition maximum in either CS (4 × [2 × 5], 30-s intraset rest, 150 s between sets) or TRAD (4 × 10, 180-s rest between sets) in randomized order.
