Objectives: Cryotherapy is a widely used intervention in sports settings to facilitate the return of injured athletes to competition, despite a lack of high-quality evidence. Given the possibility cryotherapy may increase the risk of injury, by reducing nerve conduction velocity, muscle force production, and proprioceptive afferent information, further research is needed to evaluate its effects on proprioception, particularly in the shoulder joint, which has the greatest range of motion of any joint in the body, where there is a dearth of studies.
Methods: We conducted a pre-registered, 1:1 block randomized, baseline controlled, double blind (outcome assessor and statistician), crossover trial of cryotherapy without compression and cryotherapy with compression.
Unlabelled: The introduction of bidirectional corneal applanation technologies into clinical practice made possible the in vivo assessment of biomechanical properties of the fibrous tunic in myopic eyes.
Purpose: This study analyzes the potential of bidirectional corneal applanation with high-speed video recording for biomechanical control of myopia, focusing on the biomechanical parameters of the sclera and cornea.
Material And Methods: The study included 129 patients (168 eyes) with myopia ranging from -0.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) frequently triggers respiratory conditions such as asthma and pneumonia. Inflammation occurs as a result of aspirated material, leading to symptoms such as cough, sputum production, chest discomfort from the involvement of the lower respiratory tract, and voice hoarseness owing to the involvement of the larynx. Repeated exposure to irritants can lead to fibrosis in the lungs.

An approach is described for high-throughput quality assessment of drug candidate libraries using high-resolution acoustic ejection mass spectrometry (AEMS). Sample introduction from 1536-well plates is demonstrated for this application using 2.5 nL acoustically dispensed sample droplets into an Open Port Interface (OPI) with pneumatically assisted electrospray ionization at a rate of one second per sample.

Improving food safety is crucial in the context of a "One Health" approach. To guarantee product quality and safety, the food industry, which has a very high turnover rate, needs short time-to-result analyses. Therefore, user-friendly systems at the point-of-need are necessary, presenting relevant analytical information and fulfilling the current regulations.
