Effect of additional scapular movement on the scapular muscle activity during arm raising.
Int J Sports Med
January 2025
Physical Therapy, Catholic University of Pusan, Busan, Korea (the Republic of).
The effects of the two popular strategies, scapular adduction and depression and scapular posterior tilt, on muscle activity of the trapezius and serratus anterior muscles have not been compared. This study demonstrates the effects of additional scapular adduction and depression or scapular posterior tilt movements on the activation of trapezius and serratus anterior muscles and scapular kinematics during arm raising. Eighteen asymptomatic men performed arm raising tasks with and without additional scapular movements, including scapular adduction and depression or scapular posterior tilt.

Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Bilkent City Hospital, Ankara, Türkiye.
Objectives: The present study aimed to compare the pressure-pain threshold (PPT) values in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and age-gender matched controls with chronic nonspecific low back pain and to determine whether PPT values could be beneficial as a disease activity predictor after secondary fibromyalgia had been ruled out.
Methods: This study contained a cross-sectional observational study of participants with RA and chronic nonspecific low back pain controls without fibromyalgia. Visual analog scale (VAS), fatigue severity scale (FSS), pain catastrophizing scale (PCS), health assessment questionnaire (HAQ), hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS), and disease activity score (DAS28) were administered.
Sensorless model-based tension control for a cable-driven exosuit.
Wearable Technol
December 2024
Sensory Motor Systems Lab, Department of Health Sciences and Technology, ETH Zürich, Zürich, Switzerland.
Cable-driven exosuits have the potential to support individuals with motor disabilities across the continuum of care. When supporting a limb with a cable, force sensors are often used to measure tension. However, force sensors add cost, complexity, and distal components.

January 2025
Department of Emergency Medicine, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Objectives: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) victims receiving defibrillation from an automated external defibrillator (AED) placed early in the chain of survival are more likely to survive. We sought to explore the accuracy of AED pad placement for lay rescuers (LR) and first responders (FR).
Methods: We conducted a secondary analysis of data collected during randomized OHCA simulation trials involving LRs and FRs.
Cold exposure and thermoneutrality similarly reduce supraclavicular brown adipose tissue fat fraction in fasted young lean adults.
FASEB J
January 2025
Department of Radiology, C.J. Gorter MRI Center, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, The Netherlands.
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a metabolically highly active tissue that dissipates energy stored within its intracellular triglyceride droplets as heat. Others have previously utilized MRI to show that the fat fraction of human supraclavicular BAT (scBAT) decreases upon cold exposure, compared with baseline (i.e.
