Background: For decades, poor treatment options and low-quality evidence plagued care for patients with rifampin-resistant tuberculosis. The advent of new drugs to treat tuberculosis and enhanced funding now permit randomized, controlled trials of shortened-duration, all-oral treatments for rifampin-resistant tuberculosis.
Methods: We conducted a phase 3, multinational, open-label, randomized, controlled noninferiority trial to compare standard therapy for treatment of fluoroquinolone-susceptible, rifampin-resistant tuberculosis with five 9-month oral regimens that included various combinations of bedaquiline (B), delamanid (D), linezolid (L), levofloxacin (Lfx) or moxifloxacin (M), clofazimine (C), and pyrazinamide (Z).
Dynamic Video Assessment of Axial Postural Abnormalities in Parkinson's Disease: A Pilot Study.
Mov Disord Clin Pract
January 2025
Department of Computer Science, University of Verona, Verona, Italy.
Background: Axial postural abnormalities (APAs) are frequent and disabling axial symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). Image-based measurement is considered the gold standard but may not accurately detect the true severity of APAs because these symptoms can appear or get worse under dynamic conditions.
Objective: The aim was to evaluate quantitative changes in APAs degree during prolonged standing and walking in both single- and dual-task conditions (motor + cognitive).
Ergonomic Risk Assessment Using the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) Tool among Cleaners: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Indian J Occup Environ Med
December 2024
Department of Community Physiotherapy, Pioneer Physiotherapy College, Vadodara, Gujarat, India.
Context: Cleaning consists of different activities such as mopping, sweeping, swabbing, dusting, disposing of trash, and buffing. These different physical activities of the cleaners can change the body's normal biomechanics, possibly leading to the development of musculoskeletal disorders over time.
Aims: This study aimed to check the ergonomic risk and its relationship with age, BMI, and work experience among cleaners.
Time spend using smartphones is constantly increasing. Portability leads to postures that expose them to musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). The aim was to study the effect of time of day (morning, afternoon, evening and night) on university students' postures when using their smartphones over the weekend and their link with MSD risk.

Disabil Rehabil
January 2025
Health Sciences Department, University of Jaén, Jaén, Spain.
Purpose: Virtual reality-based interventions (VRBI) are a gamified approach to therapy that can improve balance and motor skills in children diagnosed with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD). The aim was to investigate the effectiveness of VRBI in improving balance and motor skills in children with DCD.
Methods: According to PRISMA guidelines, meta-analyses were conducted by searching randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that investigated the effect of VRBI on balance and motor skills in children with DCD.
