Cardiometabolic disease (CMD) is among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in
people with a spinal cord injury (SCI). Despite well-acknowledged sex and gender …

The TyG index was evaluated as a surrogate method for estimation of insulin resistance (IR).
TyG index correlated with adiposity, metabolic and atherosclerosis markers related to IR and …

Physical inactivity is associated with an increase in cardiovascular risk that cannot be fully
explained by traditional or novel risk factors. Inactivity is also associated with changes in …

Physical inactivity is a potent stimulus for vascular remodeling, leading to a marked
decrease in conduit artery diameter. However, little is known about the impact of physical …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) triggers profound changes in visceral and somatic targets of sensory
neurons below the level of injury. Despite this, little is known about the influence of injury to …

The aim of this study was to compare the expression of serum microRNAs (miRNAs) in
individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI)(athletes [SCI-A] and sedentary [SCI-S]) and able …

Context Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in
subjects with long-term spinal cord injury (SCI). More specific recommendations for CVD …

Purpose: Subjects with spinal cord injury (SCI) have been reported to present impaired left
ventricular (LV) diastolic function in comparison with able-bodied ones. The present study …

Physical inactivity in response to a spinal cord injury (SCI) represents a potent stimulus for
conduit artery remodelling. Changes in conduit artery characteristics may be induced by the …

The mechanisms by which dietary sodium modulates cardiovascular risk are not fully
understood. This study investigated whether sodium intake is related to carotid structure and …
