Can ChatGPT provide appropriate meal plans for NCD patients?

Objectives: Dietary habits significantly affect health conditions and are closely related to the onset and progression of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Consequently, a well-balanced diet plays an important role in lessening the effects of various disorders, including NCDs. Several artificial intelligence recommendation systems have been developed to propose healthy and nutritious diets.

The Greek version of shoulder rating questionnaire (SRQ): Translation, cultural adaptation, a reliability and validity study in patients with rotator cuff related shoulder pain.

Background: The Shoulder Rating Questionnaire (SRQ) was created in the English language to assess shoulder disorders in six areas: global function, pain, daily activities, recreational and athletic activities, and work.

Purpose: The study aimed to translate and culturally adapt Shoulder Rating Questionnaire (SRQ) into Greek.

Methods: The SRQ English version was translated and adapted into the Greek language using forward translation, expert panel synthesis, and backward translation procedures.

Isokinetic Characteristics of Amateur Boxer Athletes.

The kinetic chain of the punch of boxers is characterized by the contribution of the shoulder; however, the isokinetic muscle strength of shoulder's rotators muscles has not been well studied so far, especially with regards to performance. Therefore, the aim of the present study was (a) to profile the isokinetic muscle strength of rotators of the glenohumeral joint, bilateral (BL), unilateral (UL) and functional ratios in amateur boxers, and (b) to examine the variation of these muscle strength characteristics by performance level. Forty male amateur Greek boxers from three division levels (elite, = 22; second division, = 11; and third division, = 7), and 10 non-athletes (control group) were tested, using the isokinetic dynamometer Kin-Com in the scapular seated position under standard conditions.

Effectiveness and Safety of Shockwave Therapy in Tendinopathies.

Introduction: People suffering from tendinopathies exhibit reduced mobility due to the pain caused by the movement of the tendons involved. Recently, shockwave therapy has been used as a treatment option, which is non-invasive, simpler, faster and safer.

Aims: To record the intensity of the pain, the functionality of the upper and lower limbs and quality of life before treatment with shock waves, immediately after the treatment and the 4-week follow-up.
