Article Abstract
Objective: To increase vegetable and fruit intake, reduce body mass index (BMI), and improve parental blood pressure among American Indian families.
Design: Randomized, wait-list controlled trial testing a multi-level (environmental, community, family, and individual) multi-component intervention with data collection at baseline and 6 months post-intervention.
Setting: Tribally owned and operated Early Childhood Education (ECE) programs in the Osage Nation in Oklahoma.
Participants: American Indian families (at least one adult and one child in a ECE program). A sample size of 168 per group will provide power to detect differences in fruit and vegetable intake.
Intervention: The 6-month intervention consisted of a (1) ECE-based nutrition and gardening curriculum; (2) nutrition education and food sovereignty curriculum for adults; and (3) ECE program menu modifications.
Main Outcome Measures: The primary outcome is increase in fruit and vegetable intake, assessed with a 24-h recall for adults and plate weight assessments for children. Secondary outcomes included objective measures of BMI among adults and children and blood pressure among adults.

Algorithm to detect ISUP ≥ 2 prostate cancer using canine detection.
World J Urol
September 2025
Bichat Claude Bernard Hospital, Public Assistance of Paris Hospitals, Paris, France.
Purpose: Screening and diagnosing ISUP ≥ 2 prostate cancer is challenging. This study aimed to determine whether canine detection could be beneficial addition to the ISUP ≥ 2 prostate cancer diagnostic protocol by creating a decision-making algorithm for men with suspected prostate cancer.
Methods: We conducted a prospective study at two urology institutions and a French veterinary school, including men with a suspicion of prostate cancer from November to April 2023, which were divided into two groups according to their prostate biopsy results.

The Stanley Peart Essay Competition is an annual event run by the British and Irish Hypertension Society to encourage Early Career Researchers to continue the ethos of Sir Stanley Peart. Sir Stanley Peart was a clinician and clinical researcher who made a major contribution to our understanding of blood pressure regulation. He was the first to demonstrate the release of noradrenaline in response to sympathetic nerve stimulation.

Background: Civilians in South Africa experience a high incidence of crush injury, or traumatic rhabdomyolysis. Community assault (CA) is a common mechanism of crush injury in South Africa, where victims are assaulted by multiple persons using a variety of objects. A crush injury places patients at risk of renal dysfunction.

School of Kinesiology and Health Studies, Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada.
The present investigation sought to determine the cardiovascular responses to a commercially available KAATSU cuff system with rhythmic cuff inflation-deflation periods during leg exercise. Seventeen participants performed two-legged knee flexion/extension exercise at 25% of peak work rate (WR) with bilateral KAATSU cuffs applied to the proximal thigh (KAATSU) or work-rate matched control exercise (CTL). During KAATSU trials, the cuffs were set to Cycle Mode (repeated 30-s inflation; 5-s deflation) at progressively increasing cuff pressure (150-220 mmHg).

Department of Human Physiology, University of Oregon, Eugene, Oregon, USA.
We evaluated the systemic cardiovascular and carotid baroreflex support of arterial pressure during recovery from whole-body, passive heating in young and older adults. Supine mean arterial pressure (MAP), cardiac output (Q; acetylene washin), systemic vascular conductance (SVC), heart rate (HR), and stroke volume (SV) were evaluated in 16 young (8F, 18-29 years) and nine older (6F, 61-73 years) adults at normothermic baseline and for 60-min passive heating and 120-min normothermic recovery. Externally applied neck pressure was used to evaluate HR, brachial vascular conductance, and MAP responses to carotid baroreceptor unloading.
