How the heck do you animate in Blender and get the same positioning between Blender and Unreal? I have a standard FPS setup with my player mesh attached to the camera. The camera is attached to the capsule component. I'm using the First Person Rendering feature to ensure my player arms mesh and weapons are rendering in first person at the same FOV as Blender as well. My camera FOV and sensor width/aspect ratio are matching between Blender and Unreal. I have tried animating with the camera in Blender moved to match Unreal Engine's camera component placement, and tried animating with the Blender camera at 0,0,0 but I can't seem to get the placement right. For example, I created a test pose in Blender where the character is pointing directly at the center of the screen, but it's still off. This seems like it should be a simple thing. Not sure if I'm overthinking this or what but it's kind of driving me crazy. I can't get consistent results so animating just feels like a crap shoot of hoping I can keep the mesh aligned. submitted by /u/bitches_be [link] [comments]

Sarcopenic obesity is closely associated with gut microbiota dysbiosis, chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and impaired muscle metabolism. The gut–muscle–adipose axis is increasingly recognized as a key mechanism linking obesity and sarcopenia. Nutritional strategies, probiotics, prebiotics, postbiotics, and exercise may modulate gut microbiota composition and improve muscle function, metabolic health, healthy aging, and healthcare outcomes. ABSTRACT Sarcopenic obesity (SO) is condition characterized by coexistence of reduced skeletal muscle mass and increased body fat mass. Several factors contribute to development of SO, including aging, chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, physical inactivity, obesity, inadequate nutrition, and gut dysbiosis. Currently, there is no definitive treatment protocol for SO; existing management strategies primarily focus on alleviating symptoms and improving quality of life through lifestyle modifications. The gut microbiota plays a significant role in the development of SO through dysbiosis, while restoration of microbial balance may contribute to the alleviation of clinical symptoms. In SO, Akkermansia, Escherichia, and Bifidobacterium have been reported as prominent gut microbial signatures. Therapeutic approaches for SO include nutritional and exercise interventions, biotics (probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, and postbiotics), protein and vitamin supplementation, and dietary patterns such as ketogenic and MIND diets. These strategies may contribute to SO management through the gut–muscle axis by modulating gut microbiota composition and influencing metabolic mechanisms such as inflammation, energy metabolism, and muscle protein synthesis. This review examines the relationship between SO and the gut microbiota, the mechanisms underlying the gut–muscle axis, and microbiota-based therapeutic approaches, highlighting the importance of evidence-based strategies for managing the health burden associated with this condition.

Today on Oldest Olympians, we are blogging about a subject that we have not discussed in some time: Olympic medal mysteries. These are individuals who won medals at the Games and would be over the age of 90, but for whom we have been unable to locate evidence as to whether they are alive or deceased. The first is Pakistani field hockey player Bashir Ahmed, born December 23, 1934. Ahmed represented his country in the tournament at the 1960 Rome Olympics, where he won a gold medal. He earned another victory with the team at the 1962 Asian Games. Despite these achievements, we have been unable to ascertain further information on Ahmed, perhaps because of his relatively common name. Next we have Danish sailor Ole Gunnar Petersen, born December 30, 1934. Petersen represented his country in the Flying Dutchman class, alongside Hans Fogh, at two editions of the Games, 1960 and 1964, winning silver in the former and coming in fourth at the latter. Despite these achievements, as well his partnership with one of the most well-known Olympic sailors, we have been unable to find more about Petersen, again possibly due to his relatively common name. Finally, we are featuring French track athlete Jocelyn Delecour, born January 2, 1935. Delecour represented his country in eight events across four editions of the Games, 1956-1968, winning bronze in the 4×100 metres relay in 1964 and 1968. He was European champion in that event in 1966, and also took bronze in the 200 metres and silver in the 100 metres in 1958 and 1962. A silver medalist in the relay at the 1963 Mediterranean Games, he was also an eight-time French national champion across various disciplines and later served on the administrative role in the sport. Delecour does not appear in the French national death index, so we suspect that he is likely still alive, but we have not seen a source that confirms this.
