The impact of aging on the gut‐liver axis in health and disease

Konstancja Gałat, Natalia Rzepka, Aleksandra A Kołodziejczyk

Aging is a complex biological process characterized by gradual impairment of organ function and increased susceptibility to disease. Among the systems most affected, the gut and liver are particularly important because of their role in metabolism, detoxification, and immune regulation. These two organs are closely connected through the portal vein and bile ducts, enabling continuous, bidirectional communication that coordinates homeostasis. Understanding how gut–liver communication changes with age is therefore cri …

Privacy‐Preserving Federated Audio‐Visual Saliency Analysis and Data Sharing Architecture for Rehabilitation of People With Disabilities

Ning Fang

ABSTRACT Privacy constraints on facial, movement, and voice data restrict centralized model training across rehabilitation institutions. This study presents a privacy‐preserving federated audio‐visual saliency architecture, termed PPFAV, for edge‐based rehabilitation assessment. A three‐stream encoder represents speech instructions, dynamic action sequences, and static visual cues, while a self‐supervised cross‐modal alignment objective links synchronized instructions and movement responses. Before aggregation, cli …

Aging-, obesity-, and diabetes-related sarcopenia: Pathogenesis and interventions

Shuang Han, Qianqian Xiong, Qingqian Wu, Chengyan Han, Yingjuan Zhang, Jiahuan Zou, Ruyi Guo, Yue Gao, Zhuo-Xian Meng

Abstract As global aging accelerates, sarcopenia has become an increasingly important public health concern. Although typically recognized as an age-related condition, sarcopenia can develop and progress more rapidly under certain pathological conditions, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. With the ongoing advancement of related research, the mechanisms underlying sarcopenia are being progressively elucidated. Management strategies include both nonpharmacological and pharmacological interventions. Resistance exer …

A generalized approach for estimating the pace of aging

Marije H Sluiskes, Joris Deelen, Hein Putter, Sara Hägg, Mar Rodriguez-Girondo

Abstract BACKGROUND Quantifying the rate of aging is essential for understanding age-related physiological decline and predicting late-life outcomes. The Pace of Aging (PoA) framework addresses this by modeling longitudinal changes across multiple biomarkers. However, the original Dunedin PoA assigns equal weight to all biomarkers and was derived from a young cohort with limited mortality follow-up, which restricts its applicability in older populations and in settings where biomarker relevance is uncertain. METHOD …

How aging shapes interoception: A multimodal, multidimensional analysis

Kyoungeun Lee, Risako Nishiyama, Sahib S Khalsa, Audrey Duarte

Abstract Objectives Aging is known to influence perceptual sensitivity, yet its effects on interoception across the lifespan remain poorly understood. Prior research has largely focused on single interoceptive dimensions (e.g., interoceptive sensitivity) or modalities (e.g., cardiac interoception). Moreover, most studies have assessed interoception at rest, limiting insight into how individuals track real-time changes in interoceptive state. In this study, we examined age-related differences in both interoceptive s …

Immediate changes in dynamic postural control following challenging forward-reach tasks with a ceiling-mounted fall impact mitigation robot in healthy older adults: a pilot study

Masahiro Nishimura, Daiki Shimotori, Soshi Fujisawa, Tatsuya Yoshimi, Kenji Kato

Abstract Introduction Dynamic postural control is a key determinant of balance and an essential factor in fall prevention, with center of pressure (COP) adjustments reflecting the motor mechanisms that ensure balance during forward-reach tasks. A ceiling-mounted fall impact mitigation robot has been introduced for balance-challenging tasks, including the Functional Reach Test (FRT); however, its effect on postural control in older adults remains unclear. Objective To investigate whether a ceiling-mounted fall impac …

Music-Based Interventions in Dementia

Kaitlin Seibert, Lisa M. Gallagher

Abstract Purpose of Review Music-based interventions (MBIs) are increasingly incorporated into dementia care to promote engagement, evoke autobiographical memories, and address behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia, yet their role in routine clinical practice remains poorly defined. MBIs engage brain regions involved in reward, salience, autobiographical memory, social-affective processing, autonomic regulation, and motor entrainment, providing a biologically plausible basis for symptom-targeted therape …
