Aging, a universal process that affects all cells in an organism, is a major risk factor for a group of neuropathies called glaucoma, where elevated intraocular pressure is one of the known stresses affecting the tissue. Our understanding of molecular impact of aging on response to stress in retina is very limited; therefore, we developed a new mou...
Aim Sexually transmitted infections remain a neglected area of research in geriatrics. However, in the global aging societies, sexual health among the middle-aged and older adults is an emerging public concern. High-income countries are facing a resurgence of syphilis cases among young generations, but little is known about its prevalence in older ...

There is accumulating evidence that interfering with the basic aging mechanisms can enhance healthy longevity. The interventional/therapeutic strategies targeting multiple aging hallmarks could be more effective than targeting one hallmark. While health-promoting qualities of marine oils have been extensively studied, the underlying molecular mecha...

Spatial navigation is essential for everyday life and relies on complex network-level interactions. Recent evidence suggests that transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can influence the activity of large-scale functional brain networks. We characterized brain-wide changes in functional network segregation (i.e. the balance of within vs. be...

Les effets du temps et de la température de vieillissement sur le comportement de la transformation martensitique d’un alliage à mémoire de forme de type CuZnAl à 4 % d’Al ont été étudiés. Les variations des températures de transformation, le changement dans la microstructure, la microdureté en fonction du temps et de la température de vieillisseme...

We report that PWH diagnosed with coronary artery atherosclerotic plaques display higher levels of HIV DNA compared to those without atherosclerotic plaques. In a multivariable prediction model that included 27 traditional and HIV-related risk factors, measures of HIV DNA were among the most important predictors of atherosclerotic plaque formation....

The hippocampus is a brain structure important for memory and cognitive function. Physical activity may help prevent hippocampal atrophy. However, few studies have measured sedentary behavior (SB) and intensity-specific physical activity using an accelerometer. This study aimed to examine the cross-sectional associations of objectively-determined S...

Background Height declines with age, and its degree differs among individuals. Despite epidemiologic evidence for the inverse relationship between adult height and cardiovascular disease (CVD) incidence, the clinical significance of height loss in CVD remains to be elucidated. Therefore, this study investigated the association between height loss a...

Medical ozone reestablishes cellular redox balance so that it may be a valid therapeutic approach in the prevention and management of age-related diseases with oxidative etiology in older people. The aim of this study is to evaluate oxidative stress and some vasoactive substances in elderly (60–70 years) rheumatoid arthritis patients with diabetes ...

The incidence of age-related neurodegenerative disorders has risen with the increase of life expectancy. Unfortunately, the diagnosis of such disorders is in most cases only possible when the neurodegeneration status is already advanced, and symptoms are evident. Although age-related neurodegeneration is a common phenomenon in living animals, the c...
