Exogenous Ketosis and Muscle Protein Synthesis During Exercise Recovery
An acute bout of resistance exercise stimulates muscle protein synthesis (MPS) rates for up to 24-48 hours, supporting muscle growth and repair. To optimize the anabolic effects of resistance exercise, the provision of dietary amino acids (i.e., proteins) is essential. Dietary protein intake provides the body with necessary amounts of …

Patients with a germline pathogenic variant (GPV) in high-penetrance breast cancer susceptibility genes who are considering risk reducing mastectomy (RRM) often strongly desire to keep their nipple areola complex but inquire as to whether it is safe to do so. Relative to traditional or skin sparing mastectomy (SSM) techniques, nipple …
Glycemic Variations During the Menstrual Cycle in Women With Type 1 Diabetes

This phenomenon could be explained by a decrease in insulin sensitivity during the second half of the menstrual cycle (luteal phase). Overall, despite an important proportion …
Quebec Registry for Atypical Femur Fractures
Bisphosphonates are recommended as first-line agents to reduce fracture risk in patients with osteoporosis and have in general an excellent safety profile. However, recent reports have noted that prolonged use of bisphosphonates may be associated with rare but serious adverse effects, namely atypical femur fractures (AFF), an atraumatic subset of …
Surveillance of Complex Renal Cysts - The SOCRATIC Study
One third of individuals aged >60 years will be diagnosed with at least one renal cyst following abdominal imaging. These cystic lesions are categorized according to the Bosniak classification which categorizes cysts according to their degree of complexity and risk of malignancy. Growing evidence suggests that a significant proportion of …
