Qualitative investigation into the functional problems of transtibial prostheses when amputees perform agricultural work.
Prosthet Orthot Int
December 2024
Health Rehabilitation Group (GRES), Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, School of Medicine, University of Antioquia, Medellín, Colombia.
Background: A significant number of Colombian farmers who are transtibial amputees are civilian victims of landmines. Current prostheses are inadequately adapted for agricultural work, resulting in functional challenges in this context.
Objectives: This study aims to analyze and categorize the functional problems of transtibial prostheses in the Colombian agricultural context, incorporating perspectives from prosthesis users, manufacturers, and designers.
Micronutrients absorbed via the oral mucosa reduce emotion dysregulation in 5-10-year-old children: A three-phased randomized wait-list-controlled trial.

Objective: Previous evidence has established that micronutrient capsules can improve emotion regulation in children. This three-phased randomized open-label waitlist-controlled study investigated the safety of a micronutrient powder absorbed by the oral mucosa and its effects on emotion dysregulation in 5-to-10-year-old children. The primary outcome measures were the Revised Clinician-rated Temper and Irritability Scale (CL-ARI) and the Clinical Global Impressions-Improvement Scale (CGI-I).

For the approximately 8.5 % of the global population living with diabetes, puncture-based glucose testing is often an unpleasant experience. Non-invasive sweat glucose testing not only reduces pain and the risk of wound infection but also offers a more suitable method for real-time glucose monitoring.

Since assessing aerobic capacity is key to enhancing swimming performance, a simple and widely applicable technology should be developed. Therefore, we aimed to noninvasively visualize real-time changes in sweat lactate (sLA) levels during swimming and investigate the relationship between lactate thresholds in sweat (sLT) and blood (bLT). This prospective study included 24 university swimmers (age: 20.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) cooling break policy against alternative cooling configurations in attenuating thermal strain during simulated football in the heat.
Methods: 12 males (age: 27±6 years, V̇O: 61±7 mL/kg/min) completed five 90 min intermittent treadmill football match simulations in 40°C and 41% relative humidity (32°C wet-bulb globe temperature) with different cooling configurations: regular match without cooling breaks (REG), 3 min breaks without cooling (BRK), 3 min breaks with cooling (BRK: current FIFA policy; chilled fluid ingestion and ice towel across neck and shoulders), 5 min extended half-time without cooling breaks (ExtHT) and 3 min cooling breaks with 5 min ExtHT (ExtHT). Rectal temperature (T), heart rate, whole-body sweat rate (WBSR) and rating of perceived exertion (RPE) were recorded.
