Article Abstract
Physical activity may be an important factor for understanding health and psychosocial outcomes following military service. The purpose of this analysis was to evaluate the association between physical activity and biopsychosocial outcomes in post-9/11 Veterans. We also evaluated the interaction of physical activity with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) diagnosis and traumatic brain injury (TBI) history. Data were cross-sectional from 549 post-9/11 Veterans. Hierarchical linear regression models were used to investigate relationships between self-reported physical activity and biopsychosocial outcomes. Physical activity was significantly associated with better outcomes beyond PTSD and TBI, including depression ( = -1.03), neurobehavioral symptoms ( = -1.06), sleep quality ( = -0.36), pain interference ( = -0.18), and quality of life ( = 1.38). Promoting physical activity could enhance mental and physical health in Veterans, independent of PTSD diagnosis or TBI history. Exercise programs may be particularly beneficial for addressing specific biopsychosocial concerns among Veterans.

Background: Bridge preparation skills are a vital component of dental education and require specific techniques. This study aimed to develop and evaluate 3D printed teeth for use in defect-oriented bridge preparation and pre-prosthetic exercises in dental training, addressing the limited customization and lack of integrated workflows found in commercial typodont teeth. The null hypothesis stated that 3D printed teeth offered no advantage over established typodont training methods for bridge preparation.

In the past century, the human Lifespan has doubled. However, this is not equivalent to Healthspan which refers to the number of years spent healthy and free from disease. Women have an additional level of complexity on the path to optimal healthspan where health resilience dramatically decreases following menopause and this is due to their ovaries aging by midlife.

Background: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) are common bariatric procedures that lead to substantial and sustained weight loss. Although both procedures induce hormonal and physiological effects, RYGB includes both a restrictive and malabsorptive component due to anatomical rerouting, whereas SG is considered primarily restrictive. This study aimed to quantify differences in energy and fat absorption between both procedures using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS).
