demonstrate different responses to pathology and ageing, hence it is important in …

BACKGROUND: The sacroiliac joint (SIJ) forms a complex joint and has shown to be
underappreciated in its involvement with lower back pain. Research efforts have intensified …

Background Individuals with advanced hip osteoarthritis (OA) exhibit generalized muscle

Fatty infiltration, the ectopic deposition of adipose tissue within skeletal muscle, is mediated
via the adipogenic differentiation of fibro-adipogenic progenitors (FAPs). We used single …
