Objective: To describe the sequelae referred to the cases attended by non-traumatic diseases of the shoulder. To know how sociodemographic characteristics, preventive knowledge about the workplace and ergonomic requirements are associated with the presence of sequelae.
Methods: Cross-sectional observational study in a population of 345 patients attended for a year in the consultations of a primary health care center in Alicante. Through the Chi-square test, the associations between the sequels and the rest of the variables were studied.
Resulsts: 53.9% (n=186) of the participants reported having sequelae derived, especially occasional pain associated or not with limitation of joint mobility. They are risk factors: a low level of studies, cleaning activities and industrial sector, raising the arm over the shoulder and the monotony in the workplace. However, they are protective factors: male sex, having information on occupational risks, Personal Protective Equipment, the existence of a Labor Risk Prevention Service, Risk Assessment, Prevention Plan and periodic medical examinations. Knowing the risks of the position was shown as an independent protection factor against the development of secondary sequelae in the shoulder (ORa=0,2; IC95%=0,1-0,4). However, to raise the arm above the shoulder, behaving as an independent risk factor for the development of sequelae due to shoulder pathology (ORa=2,1; IC95%=1,0-4,3).
Conclusions: The combination of ergonomic and training strategies seems useful in the prevention of the development of shoulder-level sequelae.

Despite significant advances in targeted therapies and immunotherapies, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) continues to present a global health challenge, with a modest five-year survival rate of 28 %, largely due to the emergence of treatment-resistant and metastatic tumors. In response, we synthesized a novel bioactive compound, ethyl 6-chlorocoumarin-3-carboxylyl L-theanine (TClC), which significantly inhibited NSCLC growth, epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT), migration, and invasion and tumor growth and metastasis without inducing toxicity. TClC disrupts autocrine loops that promote tumor progression, particularly in stem-like CD133-positive NSCLC (CD133+ LC) cells, which are pivotal in tumor metastasis.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS), a neuroinflammatory disease of the central nervous system, is one of the commonest causes of non-traumatic disability among young adults. Impaired cognition arises as an impactful symptom affecting more than 50% of the patients and with substantial impact on social, economic, and individual wellbeing. Despite the lack of therapeutic strategies, many efforts have been made to understand the mechanisms behind cognitive impairment in MS patients.

Background: Differentiating between traumatic and non-traumatic spinal cord injuries (NT-SCI) is critical, as these classifications may significantly impact patients' health outcomes and overall well-being, potentially resulting in differences in treatment protocols and therapeutic efficacy.
Objective: This study aims to compare the quality of life (QoL) and satisfaction with life (SWL) among individuals with traumatic spinal cord injuries (T-SCI), NT-SCI, and the healthy population in China.
Method: A quantitative, cross-sectional survey was conducted between July and December 2020 in the Rehabilitation and Physiotherapy Department of Tongji Hospital, Hubei University of Science and Technology.

Department for Interdisciplinary Health Sciences, Institute of Health and Society, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway.
Background: A high proportion of healthcare costs can be attributed to musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). A small proportion of patients account for most of the costs, and there is increasing focus on addressing service overuse and high costs. We aimed to estimate healthcare use contributing to high costs over a five-year period at the individual level and to examine if healthcare use for high-cost patients is in accordance with guidelines and recommendations.
