SUMMARY. Low back pain is a common condition seen in pregnancy. The treatment of low back pain in pregnant patients is essentially different from the treatment of the non-pregnant patient. These differences arise when it comes to understanding the reasons why pregnant patients get back pain and the differential diagnostics relating to obstetrics. The techniques are different as the patient cannot be treated prone, and manual techniques are better than mechanical ones because the palpatory response to the changing tissues is very important in this group of patients.

Association of Subcapsular Liver Hematoma With Preeclampsia, Eclampsia, or Hemolysis, Elevated Liver Enzymes, and Low Platelet Count Syndrome.
Obstet Gynecol
January 2025
Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Department of Obstetrics Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences, University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, Houston, Texas.
Objective: To describe the presentation, outcomes, and management strategies for cases of subcapsular liver hematoma associated with preeclampsia, eclampsia, or HELLP (hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet count) syndrome.
Methods: This was a case series of individuals with subcapsular liver hematoma managed at a single level IV center over a 10-year period, from 2013 to 2024. Presenting signs and symptoms, laboratory findings, time of onset, management strategies, acute perinatal and maternal outcomes, and long-term outcomes such as subsequent pregnancies were reviewed in the medical record and recorded.
Impact of Noise on Medical Anxiety in Hospitalized Children with Pneumonia: A Retrospective Study.
Noise Health
January 2025
Department of Pediatrics, Huoqiu First People's Hospital, Lu'an, Anhui 237400, China.
Purpose: Noise levels may have an impact on the level of fear and anxiety in hospitalized children, which, in turn, may affect the effectiveness of treatment. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the impact of noise levels on medical anxiety in hospitalized children with pneumonia.
Methods: Children hospitalized for pneumonia in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2023 were consecutively enrolled in this study.
Loading Speed and Intensity in Eccentric Calf Training Impact Acute Changes in Achilles Tendon Thickness and Stiffness: A Randomized Crossover Trial.
Med Sci Sports Exerc
December 2024
Department of Rehabilitation Sciences, Ghent University, Ghent, BELGIUM.
Purpose: Eccentric calf training for Achilles tendinopathy shows variable success in athletes. Recent insights suggest a role for tendon fluid flow (exudation or redistribution) during exercise, which explains post-exercise reductions in thickness and increases in stiffness of the tendon. This fluid flow is thought to be beneficial as it may promote tendon remodeling, reduce intratendinous pressure, and alleviate pain.

January 2025
Department of Biomedical Sciences, College of Health Sciences, QU Health, Qatar University, Doha 2713, Qatar.
Objectives: The association between baseline laboratory parameters and experienced well-being in healthy individuals remains uncertain. This study explored the relationship between clinical laboratory profiles and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scores for pain, stiffness, and physical functional limitation in healthy individuals in Qatar.
Methods: Clinical laboratory data were collected from 1,764 Qatar Biobank participants who also completed the WOMAC questionnaire: lipid profiles (high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, cholesterol, and triglycerides), endocrine markers (TSH, T3, T4, estradiol, and testosterone), and two inflammatory markers (CRP and fibrinogen).

Buprenorphine has superior safety in opioid use disorder compared with alternatives due to its action as a partial opioid agonist, which limits its ability to cause respiratory depression. There is a risk of precipitated opioid withdrawal after buprenorphine exposure in someone using full opioid agonists. Buprenorphine induction strategies that avoid precipitated withdrawal remain a crucial component for starting buprenorphine in individuals actively using opioids.
