Lifestyle deterioration linked to elevated inflammatory cytokines over a two-month follow-up

This 2024 observational study published in Scientific Reports (DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-69967-3) examined the impact of lifestyle changes on inflammation over a two-month period in 179 healthy individuals. Researchers found that a decline in lifestyle quality—especially reduced physical activity—was significantly associated with increased levels of inflammatory cytokines IL-17A and IFN-γ. Specifically, a

Effects of local cryotherapy on systemic endothelial activation, dysfunction, and vascular inflammation in adjuvant-induced arthritis (AIA) rats

This study investigated the effects of local cryotherapy on vascular inflammation and endothelial dysfunction in a rat model of adjuvant-induced arthritis (AIA). The results showed that cryotherapy reduced arthritis severity, joint damage, and vascular inflammation by decreasing pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β. It also improved endothelial function,
