A Narrative Review of the Assessment and Treatment of Physical Impairments Commonly Seen in Sarcoma Cancer Survivors Using a Rehabilitative Approach
Cristian A, Keole N, Orada R, Seo J, Guerrina A, Maharaj A
Cancers (Basel) . 2025 Jan; 17(1. PMID: 39796636
Background: Sarcomas are a rare, complex group of malignancies characterized by numerous clinical and pathological features. Sarcomas originate from various tissues such as fat, muscle, bone, nerves, blood vessels and...

Evaluating the Safety of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors and Combination Therapies in the Management of Brain Metastases: A Comprehensive Review
Podder V, Ranjan T, Margolin K, Maharaj A, Ahluwalia M
Cancers (Basel) . 2024 Dec; 16(23). PMID: 39682118
Brain metastases (BM) are a frequent and severe complication in patients with lung cancer, breast cancer, and melanoma. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have become a crucial treatment option for BM,...

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in the Management of Brain Metastases from Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Comprehensive Review of Current Trials, Guidelines and Future Directions
Ranjan T, Podder V, Margolin K, Velcheti V, Maharaj A, Ahluwalia M
Cancers (Basel) . 2024 Oct; 16(19). PMID: 39410008
Background: Brain metastases (BM) are a common, severe complication in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and are difficult to treat due to their complex tumor biology and the...

L-Citrulline Supplementation Improves Arterial Blood Flow and Muscle Oxygenation during Handgrip Exercise in Hypertensive Postmenopausal Women
Kang Y, Dillon K, Martinez M, Maharaj A, Fischer S, Figueroa A
Nutrients . 2024 Jun; 16(12). PMID: 38931289
Endothelial dysfunction decreases exercise limb blood flow (BF) and muscle oxygenation. Acute L-Citrulline supplementation (CIT) improves muscle tissue oxygen saturation index (TSI) and deoxygenated hemoglobin (HHb) during exercise. Although CIT...

Endothelial dysfunction influences augmented aortic hemodynamic responses to metaboreflex activation in postmenopausal women
Martinez M, Dillon K, Kang Y, Maharaj A, Fischer S, Figueroa A
Eur J Appl Physiol . 2024 Apr; 124(9):2603-2613. PMID: 38607608
Purpose: Postmenopausal women experience augmented aortic hemodynamic responses to isometric handgrip (IHG) exercise and metaboreflex activation post-exercise muscle ischemia (PEMI). Relationships between endothelial function brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and...

Endothelial and exercise vasodilation are reduced in postmenopausal females with obesity versus lean and overweight
Fischer S, Maharaj A, Kang Y, Dillon K, Martinez M, Figueroa A
Int J Obes (Lond) . 2024 Jan; 48(11):1534-1541. PMID: 38228876
Background: Obesity (OB) is highly prevalent in females after menopause, especially visceral adipose tissue (VAT) accumulation which contributes to endothelial dysfunction. The endothelium assists in regulating blood flow (BF) during...

Design and methods of a randomized telehealth-based intervention to improve fitness in survivors of childhood cancer with exercise intolerance
Maharaj A, Jefferies J, Mulrooney D, Armstrong G, Brinkman T, ONeil S, et al.
Contemp Clin Trials . 2023 Sep; 133:107339. PMID: 37730199
Background: Exercise intolerance among childhood cancer survivors substantially increases risk for early mortality, reduced cognitive function, poor quality of life, emotional distress, and sub-optimal participation in social roles. Fortunately, exercise...

L-Citrulline supplementation attenuates aortic pressure and pressure waves during metaboreflex activation in postmenopausal women
Dillon K, Kang Y, Maharaj A, Martinez M, Fischer S, Figueroa A
Br J Nutr . 2023 Sep; 131(3):474-481. PMID: 37664994
Postmenopausal women have augmented pressure wave responses to low-intensity isometric handgrip exercise (IHG) due to an overactive metaboreflex (postexercise muscle ischaemia, PEMI), contributing to increased aortic systolic blood pressure (SBP)....

The Effects of Obesity on the Inflammatory, Cardiovascular, and Neurobiological Responses to Exercise in Older Adults
Fico B, Maharaj A, Pena G, Huang C
Biology (Basel) . 2023 Jun; 12(6). PMID: 37372149
Obesity with advancing age leads to increased health complications that are involved in various complex physiological processes. For example, inflammation is a critical cardiovascular disease risk factor that plays a...

Combined Citrulline and Glutathione Supplementation Improves Endothelial Function and Blood Pressure Reactivity in Postmenopausal Women
Figueroa A, Maharaj A, Kang Y, Dillon K, Martinez M, Morita M, et al.
Nutrients . 2023 Apr; 15(7). PMID: 37049398
Postmenopausal women (PMW) may experience endothelial dysfunction associated with arginine (ARG) deficiency relative to asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) caused by oxidative stress. Endothelial dysfunction contributes to increased blood pressure (BP) responsiveness...
