Impact of backpack load during walking: an EMG and biomechanical analysis.

Med Biol Eng Comput

January 2025

Biomedical Engineering, Bahçeşehir University, Çırağan Caddesi Osmanpaşa Mektebi Sokak No: 4-6 Beşiktaş, İstanbul, 34353, Turkey.

This study aims to understand the impact of backpack carriage, a regular activity for many, on back muscles and joint mobility during walking so that clinicians can develop strategies or products to ensure individuals' safety and well-being. Surface electromyography (EMG) and XSENS Awinda motion capture systems were used to analyze the effects of carrying a backpack (12% of body weight) on erector spinae and multifidus muscles, as well as spinal, hip, knee, and ankle joints. Subjects walked at 4 km/h on flat and inclined surfaces.

Recent Advances in Perioperative Analgesia in Thoracic Surgery: A Narrative Review.

J Clin Med

December 2024

Aberdeen Centre for Arthritis and Musculoskeletal Health (Epidemiology Group), Institute of Applied Health Sciences, School of Medicine, Medical Sciences and Nutrition, Aberdeen AB24 3UE, UK.

Thoracic surgery is associated with significant postoperative pain, which can hinder recovery and elevate morbidity risks. Traditionally, epidural anesthesia has been the cornerstone for pain management, but its drawbacks including technical challenges, side effects, and complications necessitate exploring alternative methods. This narrative review examined recent advances in perioperative analgesic strategies in thoracic surgery, focusing on regional anesthetic techniques like paravertebral blocks (PVBs), erector spinae plane blocks (ESPBs), intercostal blocks, and serratus anterior blocks.

Prognostic impact of subcutaneous fat quality and sarcopenia on the survival outcomes in patients with colorectal cancer.

Surg Today

January 2025

Department of Surgery and Oncology, Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kyushu University, 3-1-1 Maidashi, Higashi-Ku, Fukuoka, 812-8582, Japan.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the quantity and quality of subcutaneous fat and prognosis following colorectal cancer resection.

Method: We conducted a retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 399 patients who underwent curative resection for stage 2 or 3 colorectal cancer between January 2013 and March 2019. This study examined the correlation between sarcopenia and various fat parameters, including fat area and density, and assessed their impact on the prognosis.

Spread of local anaesthetic after erector spinae plane block: a randomised, three-dimensional reconstruction, imaging study.

Br J Anaesth

January 2025

Department of Anaesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine, Nanjing First Hospital, Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing, China.

Background: Spread of local anaesthetic solution in the paravertebral space after erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is variable. We evaluated whether paravertebral spread of local anaesthetic is affected by patient position after ESPB.

Methods: We randomised 84 patients to receive ESPB at T with a mixture of 0.

Background: Postoperative pain remains a significant problem in patients undergoing donor nephrectomy despite reduced tissue trauma following laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy (LLDN). Inadequately treated pain leads to physiological and psychological consequences, including chronic neuropathic pain.

Materials And Methods: This randomized controlled double-blinded trial was conducted in sixty-nine (n = 69) participants who underwent LLDN under general anesthesia.
