The effect of aerobic training on pulse wave velocity in adults with and without long-term conditions: a systematic review
Conclusion: AET reduces PWV in adults with and without LTC, including individuals with COPD. Whether this effect is sustained and the clinical implications require further investigation including for pulmonary rehabilitation programmes. (Source: European Respiratory Journal)

PCR60 Self-Reported Impact of Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) on Quality of Life (QOL) Domains in Adults
The IMPACT Survey aimed to collect the most comprehensive self-reported dataset on OI, a rare hereditary connective tissue disorder associated with low bone mass, bone fragility and deformities, and variable secondary features, e.g. hearing loss and cardiac or pulmonary conditions. As few large datasets describe the experience of individuals with OI, the survey explored the impact of OI on QoL domains and worries of adults with OI. (Source: Value in Health)

The Hypolipidemic Effect of Hawthorn Leaf Flavonoids through Modulating Lipid Metabolism and Gut Microbiota in Hyperlipidemic Rats
CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that HLF can regulate metabolic hyperlipidemia syndromes and modulate the relative abundance of major bacteria, which illustrated that it might be associated with the modulation of gut microbiota composition and metabolites.PMID:36425260 | PMC:PMC9681556 | DOI:10.1155/2022/3033311 (Source: Evidence-based Complementary and Alternative Medicine)

"Marked" Bodies, Medical Intervention, and Courageous Humility: Spiritual Identity Formation in Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Birthmark
J Med Philos. 2022 Nov 21;47(5):625-637. doi: 10.1093/jmp/jhac022.ABSTRACTNathaniel Hawthorne's The Birthmark offers a sharp lens through which to examine power, purity, and personal identity. Scientist and spiritual idealist, Aylmer, is obsessed with "correcting" the only flaw he perceives in his wife Georgina, the imprint of a small red hand on her pale cheek. For Alymer, this one "imperfection" reaches deep into Georgina's heart, a sign of sin, decay, and mortality. It is the natural that must be overcome with science. Drawing on Hawthorne's tragic fiction, this paper questions the influence of stigma, power dynamics, a...
