Bone fracture repair initiates by periosteal expansion. The periosteum is typically quiescent, but upon fracture, periosteal cells proliferate and contribute to bone fracture repair. The expansion of the periosteum is regulated by gene transcription; however, the molecular mechanisms behind periosteal expansion are unclear.

Methods: A total of 341 undergraduate and postgraduate health and social care students enrolled in an IPE simulation participated in this study. Data were analyzed using a person-centered approach using a two-step cluster analysis, multiple analysis of variance, and bootstrapped independent t-tests.
Workplace biofeedback and strength training interventions have been conducted to treat neck-shoulder pain among visual display unit users. Biofeedback has been given using surface electromyography, mechanomyography, oculometrics, and spinal posture to promote either muscle relaxation, muscle activation or change in posture. Strength training has been performed mostly using basic exercise equipment according to various progression principles.

- The study focuses on how multiple myeloma (MM) disrupts the bone marrow environment, affecting immune cells and hindering anti-tumor immunity.
- Researchers analyzed CD8 T cells from newly-diagnosed MM patients using advanced techniques over different treatment stages to assess their tumor reactivity and exhaustion.
- Findings revealed an exhausted-like T cell population without typical exhaustion markers, no significant tumor-specific T cells, and an increase in activated but antigen-nonspecific T cells in the blood of these patients.
Objective: To examine the effectiveness of a specially designed video-based exercise program in promoting physical and balance performance in people with intellectual disability.
Methods: This study was a multicenter controlled trial. Participants with intellectual disability were divided into exercise group and control group by cluster sampling.
