This study aims to profile transcriptomic changes in periarticular tissues from patients undergoing shoulder replacement for OA. By correlating these profiles with QuickDASH scores-a validated measure of worsening shoulder function-this research seeks to understand the gene expression changes associated with clinical decline. Capsular tissue biopsies from shoulder OA patients were compared with those from a control group undergoing shoulder stabilization for recurrent instability. This investigation forms part of a larger transcriptomic analysis of painful shoulder conditions which will address the current gap in knowledge regarding the molecular and genetic underpinnings of shoulder OA, rotator cuff tears and cuff-tear arthropathy.Results: The analysis revealed that genes most strongly associated with increasing QuickDASH scores across tissues were linked to inflammation and stress response. Key pathways involved interleukins, chemokines, complement components, nuclear response factors, and immediate early response genes, reflecting a balance between pro- and anti-inflammatory signalling. Additionally, this study identified unique gene expression patterns in shoulder OA not previously observed in hip and knee OA, along with novel genes implicated in shoulder OA, highlighting areas for future targeted investigation.

Only a few runners compete in 10-day events, and so far, we have little knowledge about the athletes' origins, performance, and event characteristics. The aim of the present study was to investigate the origin and performance of these runners and the fastest race locations. A machine learning model based on the XG Boost algorithm was built to predict running speed from the athlete´s age, gender, country of origin, country where the race takes place, the type of race and the kind of running surface. The model explainability tools were then used to investigate how each independent variable would influence the predicted running speed.Results: The model rated the origin of the athlete as the most important predictor, followed by age group, running on dirt path, gender, running on asphalt, and event location. Running on dirt path led to a significant reduction of running speed, while running on asphalt showed faster running speeds compared to other surfaces. Most athletes came from USA, followed by Russia, Germany, Ukraine, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia. Most of the runners competed in USA. The fastest 10-day runners were from Finland and Israel. The fastest 10-day races were held in Greece.Conclusions: Most 10-day runners originated from USA, but the fastest runners originate from Finland and Israel. The fastest race courses were in Greece.

The data collection tool is a researcher-made questionnaire consisting demographic information and health beliefs about SMHS based on the health belief model. To examine the prediction of variables explaining SMHS, a linear regression analysis was carried out.

Scientific evidence on the effectiveness of this approach, however, has been poorly developed. Potentials of neuropathologic perceptual exercises to potentially improve balance control in the context of movement therapy in stroke rehabilitation appear promising. To investigate the possible effects of neuroathletic exercises on the balance ability of poststroke patients with ischemic infarcts and intracerebral hemorrhages, a controlled trial of a standardized protocol of daily neuroathletic exercises compared to traditional movement therapy during a four-week period of medical rehabilitation was conducted (n = 19). Patients were assessed with the Berg-Balance Scale (BBS), which represents the Gold standard for clinical measurement of balance. The results of the prepost BBS measurement showed significant balance improvements in the intervention and control groups, whereas the intervention group reached a higher total score by half the size of the standard deviation. A comparison of the results of both groups supported the general effectiveness of movement therapy for improving balance in stroke rehabilitation. However, neuroathletic training exercises did not lead to a stronger effect. Moreover, the intervention group did not score significantly lower than the control group. A negative influence can therefore not be assumed. For further investigations of neuroathletic training compared to treatment-as-usual training to improve balance in stroke rehabilitation, additional studies with larger sample sizes and longer treatment periods should be conducted.Trial registration United States National Library of Medicine, NCT06391801, date: 04.29.2024.","PeriodicalId":9234,"journal":{"name":"BMC Research Notes","volume":"17 1","pages":"358"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11636028/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142817302","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Following these treatments, seedlings were acclimatized after removal from the controlled environment.Results: Germination rates varied between 65 and 90%, unaffected by treatment. The highest germination speed index was in half MS salts without PVP, while full MS salts, sucrose, and PVP slowed germination. Half MS salts resulted in seedlings with greater height, more leaves, and longer roots. Complete MS salts were less effective. No seed oxidation was observed. After 120 days of acclimatization, survival rates exceeded 70%, with plants in half MS salts and 15 g sucrose showing the best growth. In vitro propagation of D. rariflora is viable for large-scale plant production, with half MS salt and sucrose concentrations, without PVP, recommended for better plant growth and cost reduction.","PeriodicalId":9234,"journal":{"name":"BMC Research Notes","volume":"17 1","pages":"354"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11605959/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142754642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
