What if the amount of sleep we get affects not only the brain, but also the biological age of various organs? By mapping the relationship between a multitude of organs and sleep in adults, is the length of our nights associated with a more advanced biological age?
Physical exercise is often promoted as a form of support following cancer treatment, but its impact on recurrence has been difficult to demonstrate. This phase 3 randomized trial provides a level of evidence rarely achieved in this field by testing a structured 3-year program following adjuvant chemotherapy for colon cancer.
L’activité physique et le sommeil sont souvent présentés comme deux piliers séparés de la santé cardiovasculaire. Cette étude invite à les lire ensemble, non pas pour chercher lequel compense l’autre, mais pour comprendre comment ils structurent le risque au quotidien.
Deloads are often used in strength training to prevent a drop in performance or aid recovery. But is temporarily reducing volume and frequency enough to preserve adaptations, or is it necessary to maintain the program’s full continuity?
Cancer development may also depend on the physical environment of the cells. In certain tissues, mechanical forces may inhibit tumor proliferation. Understanding these interactions opens up a new perspective at the interface between biology and mechanics.
Cancer is not just a matter of treatment and early diagnosis. A significant proportion of its global burden is linked to factors that can be influenced. Understanding their real impact allows us to rethink prevention at the population level.
The relationship between alcohol and cognitive health has been debated for years. Between preconceived notions, contradictory findings, and sometimes reassuring messages, it is essential to understand what science really tells us about alcohol and risk of dementia.
Aging is not just a matter of age: our cells are constantly changing under the influence of our lifestyle. Discovering how exercise interacts with these mechanisms provides a better understanding of what shapes our longevity.
Telomere length reflects our cellular aging and the ability of our tissues to regenerate. While endurance exercises have proven beneficial, one question remains: could resistance training also help protect this biological clock?
