Abstract
BACKGROUND Individuals with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are burdened by long-lasting symptoms (e.g., dyspnea and fatigue) post-treatment. These symptoms often reduce physical activity levels and increase the risk of functional decline. Though we have previously proposed cluster-set resistance training to mitigate symptom burden in lung cancer, there is currently no data on the feasibility or acceptability of this mode of exercise in cancer. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility and acceptability of a hybrid-delivery home-based cluster-set resistance training program in individuals with NSCLC stages I-III (i.e., early stage). METHODS This study aimed to recruit individuals with NSCLC stages I-III post-treatment to participate in 8 weeks of home-based resistance training, 3 days per week. The program included supervised sessions in the participants' homes and virtual supervision via videoconferencing. The primary outcome measure of feasibility was evaluated through recruitment, retention, and intervention fidelity (i.e., proportion of exercise completed, relative to what was prescribed). Intervention acceptability (i.e., ease and quality of virtual delivery, level of difficulty, and home-based approach) was assessed using a 4-point Likert-type scale from "strongly disagree" to "strongly agree". RESULTS Fourteen participants were recruited over a 6-month period, with 11 completing the intervention (2 withdrew due to unrelated illness, 1 withdrew due to requiring active treatment), yielding a retention rate of 79%. Characteristics of the participants who completed the intervention (n = 11) were as follows: mean age: 71 ± 10 years, mean BMI: 29.1 ± 6.5, and average time since diagnosis was 62 ± 51 months. Of completers, 27% were male, and 36% were Black; 10 were stage I (91%), and one was stage II (9%). Mean session attendance was 86.4 ± 9.5%. Mean intervention fidelity was 83.1 ± 13.1%. With regard to acceptability, > 90% of participants positively rated all aspects of the intervention delivery. No adverse events related to exercise were recorded. CONCLUSIONS The hybrid delivery of a home-based resistance exercise program for individuals previously treated for early-stage NSCLC was found to be safe and feasible. Adaptations to the program for future interventions are required, particularly surrounding resistance exercise programming, and intervention delivery with home visits.

Abstract
Background Symptom burden remains a critical concern for individuals with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) following the completion of treatment. The most common symptom clusters, dyspnea (shortness of breath) and fatigue, can contribute to physical decline, reductions in quality of life, and a higher risk of comorbidities and mortality. Dyspnea is a primary limiter of exercise capacity in individuals with lung cancer, resulting in exercise avoidance and an accelerated physical decline. As such, designing resistance training with cluster sets to mitigate symptoms of dyspnea and fatigue may result in improved exercise tolerance. Thus, maintaining the exercise stimulus via cluster sets, combined with improved tolerance of the exercise, could result in the maintenance of physical function and quality of life. The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a hybrid-delivery home-based cluster-set resistance training program in individuals with NSCLC. Methods Individuals with NSCLC (n = 15), within 12 months of completion of treatment, will be recruited to participate in this single-arm feasibility trial. Participants will complete 8 weeks of home-based resistance training designed to minimize dyspnea and fatigue. The hybrid delivery of the program will include supervised sessions in the participants’ home and virtual supervision via video conferencing. The primary outcome of feasibility will be quantified by recruitment rates, retention, acceptability, and intervention fidelity. Exploratory outcomes (dyspnea, fatigue, quality of life, physical function, and body composition) will be assessed pre- and post-intervention. Discussion This study will provide important data on the feasibility of delivering this intervention and inform procedures for a future randomized controlled trial.

Abstract
Aerobic training (AT) can promote cognitive function in adults with Subcortical Ischemic Vascular Cognitive Impairment (SIVCI) by modifying cardiovascular risk factors. However, pre-existing cardiovascular health may attenuate the benefits of AT on cognitive outcomes in SIVCI. We examined whether baseline cardiovascular risk moderates the effect of a 6-month progressive AT program on executive functions with a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial in 71 adults, who were randomized to either: (1) 3×/week progressive AT; or (2) education program (CON). Three executive processes were measured: (1) response inhibition by Stroop Test; (2) working memory by digits backward test; and (3) set shifting by the Trail Making Test. Baseline cardiovascular risk was calculated using the Framingham cardiovascular disease (CVD) Risk Score (FCRS), and participants were classified as either low risk (< 20% FCRS score; LCVR) or high risk (≥ 20% FCRS score; HCVR). A complete case analysis (n = 58) was conducted using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) to evaluate between-group differences in the three executive processes. A significant interaction was found between cardiovascular risk group and intervention group (AT or CON) for the digit span backward and the Trail Making Test. AT improved performance compared with CON in those with LCVR, while in those with HCVR, AT did not improve performance compared with CON. Baseline cardiovascular risk significantly moderates the efficacy of AT on cognition. Our findings highlight the importance of intervening early in the disease course of SIVCI, when cardiovascular risk may be lower, to reap maximum benefits of aerobic exercise.

Abstract
We aimed to examine whether the Framingham Cardiovascular Risk Profile Score (FCRP) moderates the effect of progressive resistance training (RT) on mobility in older adult women. This is an exploratory analysis of a single-blind, 12-month randomized controlled trial in 155 omen, aged 65 to 75 years old, who were randomized to: 1x/week progressive RT; or 2x/week progressive RT program; or 2x/week balance and tone (BAT). At baseline and trial completion, mobility was measured using the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB). The SPPB is a composite measure of usual gait speed, standing balance, and sit to stand performance; scores < 9/12 are indicative of functional decline. Baseline 10-year cardiovascular risk was calculated using the FCRP. Participants were classified as either low risk (<16.5% FCRP score; LCVR) or high risk ≥16.5% FCRP score; HCVR). A complete case analysis (n=126) was conducted using a two-way analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) to evaluate the interaction effect of group by FCRP risk on SPPB scores at trial completion; baseline SPPB scores and age in years were entered as covariates. There was a significant interaction effect (F(1,126)=3.74, p=0.027). At trial completion, both 1x/RT and 2x/RT participants with HCVR demonstrated greater SPPB scores than those with LCVR (11.59 vs. 11.38 for 1x/week; 11.86 vs 11.46 for 2x/week). In contrast, BAT participants with HCVR demonstrated worse SPPB scores than those with LCVR (11.18 vs 11.66). Our data suggest that RT may be more efficacious for improving mobility in older women with higher cardiovascular risk than women with lower risk.

Abstract
UNLABELLED : Thoracic hyperkyphosis is a frequent problem and can impact greatly on patient's quality of life during adolescence. This condition can be idiopathic or secondary to Scheuermann disease, a disease disturbing vertebral growth. To date, there is no sound scientific data available on the management of this condition. Some studies discuss the effects of bracing, however no guidelines, protocols or indication's of treatment for this condition were found. The aim of this paper was to develop and verify the consensus on managing thoracic hyperkyphosis patients treated with braces and/or physiotherapy. METHODS The Delphi process was utilised in four steps gradually modified according to the results of a set of recommendations: we involved the SOSORT Board twice, then all SOSORT members twice, with a Pre-Meeting Questionnaire (PMQ), and during a Consensus Session at the SOSORT Lyon Meeting with a Meeting Questionnaire (MQ). RESULTS There was an unanimous agreement on the general efficacy of bracing and physiotherapy for this condition. Most experts suggested the use of 4-5 point bracing systems, however there was some controversy with regards to physiotherapeutic aims and modalities. CONCLUSION The SOSORT panel of experts suggest the use of rigid braces and physiotherapy to correct thoracic hyperkyphosis during adolescence. The evaluation of specific braces and physiotherapy techniques has been recommended.

Abstract
In order to detect gene products involved in Arabidopsis drought adaptive strategy, 2D-PAGE protein patterns of two auxin-insensitive mutants, axr1, axr2, differentially affected in specific drought responses, were compared to the wild-type Columbia ecotype, in well-watered and drought-stressed conditions. Coupled to computer analysis of polypeptide amounts, 2D-electrophoresis revealed subtle changes in protein expression induced by progressive drought stress and/or mutations affecting the auxin response pathway. The differential protein patterns of axr1 and axr2 were consistent with their contrasting drought responses. The specific leaf and root protein patterns of axr1 showed that this mutation disrupts drought responses related to auxin regulation. In particular, the near absence of drought rhizogenesis in axr1 was associated with a root protein pattern closer to the well-watered than to the water-stressed axr2 and Columbia wild-type root protein patterns. Also, the largely different effects of axr1 and axr2 mutations suggest that they affect different pathways in auxin response. Several sets of polypeptides, whose regulation was affected by drought and/or mutation, were thus detected. These polypeptides could play a role both in the auxin and the drought response pathways. Their identification, through microsequencing, should be most informative.

Abstract
Drought rhizogenesis is an adaptive strategy that occurs during progressive drought stress and is characterized in the Brassicaceae and related families by the formation of short, tuberized, hairless roots. These roots are capable of withstanding a prolonged drought period and give rise to a new functional root system upon rehydration. The kinetics of drought rhizogenesis during progressive water shortage was analyzed in the Arabidopsis thaliana wild-type ecotypes Landsberg erecta and Columbia. In both genotypes, this response started from a similar threshold of soil humidity (about 2%). The intensity of drought rhizogenesis was compared in various A. thaliana hormonal mutants. The wild-type lines and most of the mutants achieved a similiar drought rhizogenetic index (DRI), defined as the maximum number of short roots produced per mg of root biomass, after progressive drought stress. However, this DRI was dramatically reduced in the abscisic acid (ABA)-deficient aba, ABA-insensitive abi1-1, and auxin-resistant axr1-3 mutants. These data indicate that endogenous ABA and auxin play a promotive role in drought rhizogenesis. The DRI was highly increased in the gibberellin (GA) biosynthetic mutant ga5, suggesting that some GAs might also participate in this process. The possible role and identity of the GA species involved is discussed in view of the unaltered DRI values of the ga2, ga3, and ga4 mutants. The present analysis also allowed further discrimination among the various ABA-insensitive (abi1 versus abi2 and abi3) and auxin-resistant (axr1 versus aux1) mutants tested. In particular, drought rhizogenesis is the first physiological response shown to be differentially affected by the abi1-1 and abi2-1 mutations.
