Introduction: Hand grip strength (HGS) is an important measure in a physiotherapy assessment and for this purpose it is necessary to have valid and reliable instruments to measure it. In this study we aimed at investigating the reliability, validity, and agreement of the new hand-held dynamometer NOD (OT-Bioelettronica, To-Italy) compared to Jamar® hydraulic dynamometer (JD), the gold standard.
Methods: Fifty healthy subjects were selected; 9 trials for the dominant hand and 9 trials for the non-dominant hand were administrated to each of them: 3 trials of HGS with the JD in rung #3, 3 trials with the JD-adapted-grip (like the NOD one), and 3 trials with NOD.

Recent advances in the clinical development of oligonucleotide therapeutics, such as antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) and small interfering RNAs, have attracted attention as promising therapeutic modalities for genetic and intractable diseases. These oligonucleotide therapeutics exert their efficacy by binding to target RNAs present within cells; however, the mechanisms underlying their cellular uptake, especially their passage through membranes, remain largely unclear. In the nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans, the multi-pass transmembrane protein, SID-1, is involved in the cellular uptake of double-stranded RNAs.

Electrochemically inserting and extracting hydrogen into and from solids are promising ways to explore materials' phases and properties. However, it is still challenging to identify the structural factors that promote hydrogen insertion and extraction and to develop materials whose functional properties can be largely modulated by inserting and extracting hydrogen through solid-state reactions at room temperature. In this study, guided by theoretical calculations on the energies of oxygen reduction and hydrogen insertion reactions with oxygen-deficient perovskite oxides, we demonstrated that the oxygen vacancy ordering in Sr(FeCo)O (SFCO) epitaxial films can be stabilized by increasing the Co content (x ≥ 0.
