The objective of this review was to identify the main types of insoles described in the literature that are used to treat musculoskeletal alterations of lower limbs and to analyze the existence of previous evaluation for the prescription of these insoles. To this end, two researchers, independently and blindly, searched the PubMed, SciELO, Bireme, MEDLINE, Lilacs, PEDro, Cochrane Library and Web of Science databases between June and July of 2018, from the free combination of the following descriptors: insoles, foot orthoses, foot, orthoses, musculoskeletal diseases and clinical trial. We included randomized or non-randomized clinical trials in which at least one intervention group used insoles and individuals with some type of musculoskeletal disorder had been sampled. Of the 227 documents identified in date bases, 20 were included in this review. In general, it is suggested to carry out more studies with more precise methods and that include evaluation before the prescription. This is a systematic review of clinical trials registered in PROSPERO (International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews) under the protocol no. CRD42018099534e.

Background: Quantitative methods for estimating the workload of primary healthcare (PHC) workers are essential for improving the performance of PHC institutions. However, measuring the workload of PHC workers is challenging due to the diverse and complex range of services covered by PHC. This study aims to use an equivalent value (EV)-based approach to assess the workload of PHC workers and inform policymakers about the current workload burden in Beijing, China.

Vulvar cancer is a rare gynaecological disease that can be caused by infection with human papillomavirus (HPV). The mutational frequencies and landscape for HPV-associated and HPV-independent vulvar tumor development are supposedly two distinctly different pathways and more detailed knowledge on target biological mechanisms for individualized future treatments is needed. The study included formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples from 32 cancer patients (16 HPV-negative and 16 HPV-associated), treated in Örebro, Sweden from 1988 to 2008.

Introduction: Vocal distortion, also known as a scream or growl, is used worldwide as an essential technique in singing, especially in rock and metal, and as an ethnic voice in Mongolian singing. However, the production mechanism of vocal distortion is not yet clearly understood owing to limited research on the behavior of the larynx, which is the source of the distorted voice.
Objectives: This study used high-speed digital imaging (HSDI) to observe the larynx of professional singers with exceptional singing skills and determine the laryngeal dynamics in the voice production of various vocal distortions.
