Rehabilitating Workers Aged 55 and Over: Professionals' Perspectives and Solutions.

Purpose: Work disability affects a growing number of workers aged 55 and over (W55 +). While rehabilitation programs have demonstrated efficacy for workers with an average age of 42, they often have not been designed to meet unique needs of aging workers. This study aimed to describe the difficulties encountered by work rehabilitation professionals and explore their solutions for improving services offered to W55 + .

Anti-Claudin-2 Antibody-Drug Conjugates for the Treatment of Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastasis.

We have previously demonstrated that Claudin-2 is required for colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastasis. The expression of Claudin-2 in primary CRC is associated with poor survival and highly expressed in liver metastases. Claudin-2 also promotes breast cancer liver metastasis by enabling seeding and cancer cell survival.

Translation and initial cross-cultural adaptation of the tool for support-gradual return-to-work for persons with chronic musculoskeletal pain to the Swedish setting.

Background: A well-defined and clear procedure is a key factor supporting return-to-work and enhancing collaboration and understanding between employers and employees. The adaptation of the Tool for Support-Gradual Return to Work, TS-GRTW, addresses relevant cultural aspects valuable for wider adoption.

Objective: develop a Swedish version, the GRTWswe, for implementation and integration into the Swedish labor market's RTW process.

Disability reduction following a lumbar stabilization exercise program for low back pain: large vs. small improvement subgroup analyses of physical and psychological variables.

Background: Little is known about why patients with low back pain (LBP) respond differently to treatment, and more specifically, to a lumbar stabilization exercise program. As a first step toward answering this question, the present study evaluates how subgroups of patients who demonstrate large and small clinical improvements differ in terms of physical and psychological changes during treatment.

Methods: Participants (n = 110) performed the exercise program (clinical sessions and home exercises) over eight weeks, with 100 retained at six-month follow-up.

Work Disability and Musculoskeletal Disorders Among Teleworkers: A Scoping Review.

Purpose: This project aimed to examine the existing evidence on work disability or musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) among teleworkers.

Method: A scoping review was conducted in eight bibliographic databases (MEDLINE, CINAHL, Embase, PsycINFO, ABI/Inform Global, EBM Reviews, Web of Science, Dissertations & Theses Global) from inception to June 2022.

Results: Out of 9192 records identified, a total of 79 selected articles representing 77 studies were retained.
