[Purpose] This study aimed to determine the effect of running in place accompanied by abdominal drawing-in on the posture of healthy adults. [Subjects] A total of 30 subjects were divided into a training group and a control group, each containing 15 subjects. [Methods] The training group performed running in place accompanied by abdominal drawing-in for 30 min daily, three times a week for six weeks. Trunk inclination (TIN), trunk imbalance (TIM), pelvic position (PPO), pelvic torsion (PTO), pelvic rotation (PRO), and position of the scapulae (PSA) were assessed using BackMapper for both the training group and the control group before and after the experiment. [Results] Comparison of the results of the training and control groups before and after the experiment showed that the training group had statistically significant changes in TIN, TIM, PPO, PTO, and PSA, while the control group had no statistically significant changes in any items. [Conclusion] Running in place can be conveniently utilized by students or workers, regardless of time and place, as an exercise for postural improvement.

Introduction: Bony and ligamentous ankle injuries are some of the most commonly treated injuries by orthopedic surgeons. Open ligamentous ankle injuries without an associated fracture or dislocation are rare and to our knowledge have only sparsely been described in the literature. We present a case and successful treatment of an open lateral ankle injury with capsular rupture and ligamentous damage without fracture or dislocation in a 22-year-old female.

The analysis of running gait has conventionally taken place within an expensive and restricted laboratory space, with wearable technology offering a practical, cost-effective, and unobtrusive way to examine running gait in more natural environments. This pilot study presents a wearable inertial measurement unit (IMU) setup for the continuous analysis of running gait during an outdoor parkrun (i.e.

Background/objectives: Falls and fractures are emerging as a near-pandemic and major global health concern, placing an enormous burden on ageing patients and public health economies. Despite the high risk of polypharmacy in the elderly patients, falls are usually attributed to age-related changes. For the "Individual Pharmacotherapy Management (IPM)" established at the University Hospital Halle, the IPM medication adjustments and their association with in-hospital fall prevention were analysed.

: Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) affects millions across the globe, generating a veritable public health issue through quality-of-life-reducing chronic complications, among which urinary tract infections are the most common. A shift in the disease managing paradigm from a glucose-centered view to a concept of cardio-reno-metabolic health has uniquely placed SGLT2 inhibitors as viable medication for the complex management of T2DM and its comorbidities. Some concerns have been raised over the increased likelihood of urinary tract infections (UTIs) associated with SGLT2 inhibitor use.
