The Economic Analysis of the Overlooked Recurrent Low Back Pain: Three Years Retrospective Observational Study.

Purpose: Recent redefinitions of pain emphasize the importance of the previously overlooked recurrent low back pain (LBP). Understanding the direct medical cost for recurrent LBP cases based on the cost per visit is crucial economically. We aimed to compare the cost per visit for LBP and recurrent LBP, including the impact of gender and type of medical service, estimating the approximate annual cost of recurrent LBP.

Obesity as an influencing factor for the occurrence of caffeine-induced effects in women.

Beckground And Aims: Individuals with a higher body fat percentage may have higher serum levels of caffeine and its metabolites and process caffeine more slowly than individuals with a lower body fat percentage, so the aim of this study is to compare the occurrence of positive and negative effects of caffeine in nonobese and obese women.

Methods And Results: One hundred and sixty women were included in the study. Body fat was determined using the mBCA 515 SECA analyzer.

SchNetPack Hyperparameter Optimization for a More Reliable Top Docking Scores Prediction.

Options to improve the extrapolation power of the neural network designed using the SchNetPack package with respect to top docking scores prediction are presented. It is shown that hyperparameter tuning of the atomistic model representation (in the schnetpack.representation) improves the prediction of the top scoring compounds, which have characteristically a low incidence in randomized data sets for training of machine learning models.

Can Myofascial Trigger Points Involve Nociplastic Pain? A Scoping Review on Animal Models.

Nociplastic pain is a non-specific, regional pain lasting more than three months, characterised by the onset of hypersensitivity, despite no clear evidence of tissue damage. It is a relatively new classified type of pain. As a result, there has not yet been much work describing its precise modelling.
