Effectiveness of Abdominal Breathing Exercise to Control Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, a Randomized Controlled Trial.
J Community Hosp Intern Med Perspect
January 2025
Holy Family Hospital, Rawalpindi, Pakistan.
Objectives: To determine the effect of actively training the crura of diaphragm which is a part of lower esophageal sphincter using abdominal breathing exercises to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease.
Methodology: With a randomized controlled study design, a total of 22 (11 in each group) clinically diagnosed patients of GERD presenting to the gastroenterology outpatient department at Holy Family Hospital in Pakistan were assessed using GERD related "quality of life index (QoLI)" questionnaire and their on-demand proton pump inhibitors (PPI) usage. Single blinding technique will be used.
Battlefield Acupuncture Does Not Provide Additional Improvement in Pain When Combined With Standard Physical Therapy After Shoulder Surgery: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Keller Army Community Hospital Division 1 Sports Physical Therapy Fellowship, Baylor University, West Point, NY 10996, USA.
Introduction: Shoulder stabilization surgery is common among military personnel, causing severe acute postoperative pain that may contribute to the development of chronic pain, thereby reducing military readiness. Battlefield Acupuncture (BFA) has shown promise as a non-pharmaceutical intervention for acute postoperative pain. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of BFA combined with standard physical therapy on pain, self-reported mood, self-reported improvement, and medication use in patients after shoulder stabilization surgery.

In recent years, significant research has been conducted on video-based human pose estimation (HPE). While monocular two-dimensional (2D) HPE has been shown to achieve high performance, monocular three-dimensional (3D) HPE poses a more challenging problem. However, since human motion happens in a 3D space, 3D HPE offers a more accurate representation of the human, granting increased usability for complex tasks like analysis of physical exercise.

Department of Public Health and Primary Care, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, CB1 8RN, United Kingdom.
Self-recorded, single-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) are increasingly used to diagnose arrhythmias. However, they can be of variable quality, affecting the reliability of interpretation. In this analysis of ECGs collected in atrial fibrillation screening studies, our aims were to: (i) determine the quality of ECGs when recorded unsupervised; and (ii) investigate whether telephone training improved ECG quality.

Nutrients
October 2024
Nutritional Epidemiology Group, School of Food Science and Nutrition, University of Leeds, Leeds LS2 9JT, UK.
Background And Objective: Tools to accurately and efficiently measure dietary intake in Nigeria are lacking. We aimed to develop and assess the usability of a new online dietary assessment tool for Nigeria-myfood24 West Africa.
Methods: We developed the myfood24 West Africa database using data from existing food composition tables, packaged foods labels and research articles.
