In the pediatric population, complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a challenging condition that leads to chronic psychosocial dysfunction. This case is of a 12-year-old male patient, 50.ßkg, who, after twisting his right ankle, started to present intense pain. Without adequate diagnosis and treatment, his family sought a pain specialist. During the evaluation, a change in sensitivity and temperature was observed, besides hyperalgesia, allodynia, redness, edema, and motor dysfunction, being diagnosed with CRPS. Ultrasound-guided sciatic blocks were performed on the affected limb, increasing the interval between crises, reducing pain intensity, and promoting a return to daily activities.

Association between exposure to urinary metal and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in US adults.
PLoS One

Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine (Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine), Guangdong Provincial Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Guangzhou, China.
Background: Further evidence is required regarding the influence of metal mixture exposure on mortality. Therefore, we employed diverse statistical models to evaluate the associations between eight urinary metals and the risks of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality.
Methods: We measured the levels of 8 metals in the urine of adults who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2018.
Exploring pathways to digital transformation: fsQCA analysis based on the AMO framework.
PLoS One

School of Business Administration, Shandong University of Finance and Economics, Jinan, Shandong, China.
In recent years, China has significantly increased its global competitiveness in digital technologies, emphasizing the importance of the digital economy during the high-quality development stage. The question of how firms in traditional industries can achieve digital transformation, which is critical for participating in the digital economy, is still understudied. Using the ability-motivation-opportunity (AMO) framework, this research developed a model and identified six factors' ability, motivation, and opportunity dimensions.

Introduction: The article is devoted to the sociological exploration of the social phenomenon that Nordic Walking has become in Europe and worldwide over the recent decades.
Aim: It is based on the results of original international sociological research study on the issue of sociodemographic profiles of Nordic Walkers in the context of the values associated with this sports activity.
Methods: A cross-sectional quantitative study with convenience sampling study was performed among 416 Poles, 132 Europeans from 11 countries (Germany, the UK, Spain, France, Italy, Portugal, Ireland, Denmark, Austria, Sweden, and Norway), and 212 participants from 5 non-European countries (the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Japan).
Heterogeneity and permeability estimation of pore-throat structure at different scales in deep tight sandstone reservoirs: A case study of Paleogene Hetaoyuan Formation in Anpeng area, Nanxiang Basin, China.

School of Geoscience and Technology, Southwest Petroleum University, Chengdu, China.
Clarifying the pore-throat size and pore size distribution of tight sandstone reservoirs, quantitatively characterizing the heterogeneity of pore-throat structures, is crucial for evaluating reservoir effectiveness and predicting productivity. Through a series of rock physics experiments including gas measurement of porosity and permeability, casting thin sections, scanning electron microscopy, and high-pressure mercury injection, the quality of reservoir properties and microscopic pore-throat structure characteristics were systematically studied. Combined with fractal geometry theory, the effects of different pore throat types, geometric shapes and scale sizes on the fractal characteristics and heterogeneity of sandstone pore throat structure are clarified.
