Article Synopsis
- The LPS-induced inflammation model is valued for studying inflammation due to its cost-effectiveness and reliable results, but understanding gene regulation requires broader investigation beyond typical markers.
- Our research compared transcriptional profiles from LPS models to various human inflammatory diseases using whole-blood RNA-seq data, checking systems associated with inflammation.
- Findings revealed increased expression of innate immune genes and decreased adaptive immune gene expressions, highlighting oxidative stress as a key factor driving inflammatory responses across different contexts.
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of an upper extremity neural mobilization technique on delayed onset muscle soreness. [Subjects] Forty-five healthy subjects were randomly assigned to two groups: a nerve mobilization group (experimental) and a control group. [Methods] The subjects of the experimental group were administered a median nerve mobilization technique and ultrasound for the biceps brachii muscle.

Background: Rehabilitation of subacute stroke patients represents a major challenge.
Objective: This study was conducted to examine the effects of mirror therapy on balance ability among subacute stroke patients.
Methods: The patients were assigned to a mirror therapy group ( = 17) or a sham therapy group ( = 17).
Objective: To investigate the effect of mirror therapy on the gait of patients with subacute stroke.
Design: Randomized controlled experimental study.
Setting: Outpatient rehabilitation hospital.
