Objectives: The physical demands of military service place soldiers at risk of musculoskeletal injuries and are major concerns for military capability. This paper outlines the development new training technologies to prevent and manage these injuries.
Design: Narrative review.
Article Synopsis
- * In a study with 26 elite swimmers, an IMU sensor was used to collect data, and two different feature extraction techniques were applied to evaluate machine learning models for predicting swimming strokes.
- * The models showed exceptional performance, with advantages in speed and accuracy, indicating that automatic stroke classification could enhance performance monitoring and analysis in swimming.
The integration of technology into training and competition sport settings is becoming more commonplace. Inertial sensors are one technology being used for performance monitoring. Within combat sports, there is an emerging trend to use this type of technology; however, the use and selection of this technology for combat sports has not been reviewed.

Methods: Records of patients operated on for duodenal Crohn's disease since 1980 were retrospectively reviewed.
Background: Unilateral neck exploration for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPTH) is controversial because of concern about missed multiglandular disease.
Methods: In patients with sporadic PHPTH our approach has been arbitrarily to surgically explore the right neck first unless preoperative or intraoperative evidence suggests left-sided parathyroid pathologic condition. When an adenoma is identified and a normal ipsilateral gland is confirmed on histologic examination, the contralateral side is not explored.
