Article Synopsis
- Microgravity affects cognition and cardiovascular systems, but its impact on motor signal processing is unclear, prompting a study on this aspect with lower body positive pressure.*
- Thirty healthy volunteers were tested under 50 mmHg of pressure, measuring cardiovascular parameters and reaction times with continuous ECG and blood pressure monitoring.*
- Results showed increased blood pressure, stroke volume, cardiac output, and improved reaction times during the pressure exposure, indicating enhanced motor signal processing.*
Utilization of non-pneumatic anti-shock garment for treating obstetric hemorrhage and associated factors among obstetric care providers in Ethiopia: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: The non-pneumatic anti-shock garment (NASG) is a life-saving device that can help to avoid delays and prevent further complications in the case of obstetric hemorrhage. Although there are many fragmented primary studies on the NASG utilization in Ethiopia, the pooled utilization rate is unknown. In addition, a disagreement was observed among those studies while reporting the associated factors.

Throughout history, the upright position was the norm for most deliveries. However, due to cultural reasons, this practice was changed in the 17th century, and since then, the majority of deliveries have been conducted with the parturient lying on her back. The aim of this review article is to challenge the nowadays recumbent birth position and to emphasize the added value of gravity to the childbirth.

Preventing the rise in obesity is a global public health priority. Neighbourhood environments can help or undermine people's efforts to manage their weight, depending on availability of nutritious and nutrient-poor 'discretionary' foods. The proportion of household food budgets spent on eating outside the home is increasing.

Background: Endothelium function is often impaired in patients with type 2 diabetes. We hypothesized that by improving endothelial function using diastole-synchronized compressions/decompressions (DSCD) to the lower body may improve the metabolic profile. The objective of this research was to evaluate the effects of single and multiple DSCD sessions on microcirculation, endothelium function and metabolic parameters of patients with type 2 diabetes.
