How Muscle Loss and Bone Loss Are Related

Researchers have elucidated some of the links between the age-related loss of muscle (sarcopenia) and the age-related loss of bone (osteoporosis). Substantial previous research has described the relationship between muscle and bone health.

The dual diversity crisis in alzheimer's disease research: why neuroimaging biomarkers and clinical trials keep failing

Alzheimer's disease clinical trials have failed at a rate exceeding 99% over two decades, and neuroimaging biomarkers developed in discovery cohorts have repeatedly disappointed in validation and clinical application. Standard explanations address symptoms rather than structural causes.

Impact of mixed reality on the care of the elderly: a scoping review

Population aging requires innovative technological strategies that promote autonomy, functionality, and well-being in old age. In this context, mixed reality (MR), a technology that integrates physical and digital elements in a shared and interactive real-time environment, emerges as a promising alternative.

Uterine aging may reduce donor egg pregnancy success after 49

A major new study suggests that age-related changes in the uterus may contribute to poorer pregnancy outcomes, with women aged 49 and over experiencing lower live birth rates and higher miscarriage risk despite donor-oocyte treatment.
