The Effect of Taping on Plantar Pressure Distribution in Players With Chronic Ankle Instability
The goal of this study is to investigate whether there exists a difference in baropdometric readings of plantar pressure between individuals with chronic ankle instability and normal health individuals, in addition another goal of this study is to investigate the effect of rigid taping vs. kinesio taping on plantar pressure …
Suitability of a 26 °C Indoor Environment for Mitigating Heat Strain in Young Adults
While an indoor upper temperature limit of 26 °C has been shown to protect heat-vulnerable older adults (DOI: 10.1289/EHP11651), this guideline has not been verified in young, habitually active adults. Public health recommendations during hot weather typically emphasize staying in cool environments, avoiding strenuous activity, wearing lightweight clothing, and maintaining …
Influence of Indoor Humidity on Physiological Strain in Older Adults During a Simulated Heat Wave
Laboratory-based studies show that exposure to high humidity can worsen the effects of heat stress in young and older adults by impeding sweat evaporation - the main mechanism by which the human body cools itself. At high levels of humidity, the efficiency of sweating decreases causing a greater rise core …
Prevention of Clostridium Difficile Infections Using Lactobacillus Plantarum 299v Strain in Nephrology and Transplantation Department
The aim of this study was to analyze whether the use of the LP299v strain reduces the risk of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) among patients receiving antibiotics and hospitalized in the nephrology and transplantation ward. Adutt patients from risk group (receiving immunosuppressive drugs and treated with antibiotics) were enrolled into …
5-strain Probiotic Formulation in HR-positive Breast Cancer Receiving Aromatase Inhibitor to Prevent Bone Loss
This phase II trial tests how well a probiotic, WBF-038, works in preventing bone loss in patients with early-stage hormone receptor-positive breast cancer who are starting treatment with aromatase inhibitors. Aromatase inhibitors are a drug that blocks the activity of an enzyme called aromatase, which the body uses to make …
Comparison Between Effects of Active Release Technique and Post Isometric Relaxation on Adductor Strain in Mixed Martial Arts Fighters
This study is a randomized controlled trial and the purpose of this study is to compare the effects between active release technique and post-isometric relaxation on adductor strain in mixed martial arts fighters.
Effect of ACL Reconstruction in Biomechanical Properties of Ankle Joint Complex
BACKGROUND Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is an important ligamentous structure in the knee joint which contributes in maintaining stability. ACL injury contribute to approximately 50% of knee injuries .The incidence of ACL ruptures is estimated to be between 30 and 78 per 100,000 people per year . The incidence of …
Arthroscopic Versus Open Brostrom for Ankle Instability
Background: Ankle sprains are among the most prevalent lesions in primary care. A substantial number of these ligament lesions will develop ankle instability and require a surgical procedure. The Brostrom-Gould technique is the standard surgical approach for this condition, providing excellent results over the years. Thru the last decades, the …
Positioning for Hip Arthroscopic Surgery to Reduce Postoperative Numbness
Compared to the knee and shoulder, the hip joint leaves relatively little space to maneuver arthroscopic instruments and camera. To expand the potential space in the hip joint, traction is commonly applied to the operative leg through a perineal post. This is an effective technique to improve the working space …
Effect of Yellow Light AG Mobile Phone Screen on Dry Eye and Asthenopia.
This study aimed to evaluate the protective effects of yellow-light etching anti-glare (AG) screen on Digital Eye Strain (DES) induced by prolonged video display terminal (VDT) use under dim environment, Based on the proved positive effect of the circular polarization (CP) screen, providing insights for new eye-protection strategy in the …
