All injuries occurring over a 7-week period at a local indoor soccer arena were documented for analysis of incidence rates. All injury rates were calculated per 100 player-hours. The overall injury rates for male and female players were similar, 5.04 and 5.03, respectively. The lowest injury rate was found among the 19- to 24-year-old athletes and the highest injury rate was found among the oldest age group (> or = 25 years). Collision with another player was the most common activity at the time of injury, accounting for 31% of all injuries. The most common injury types were sprains and muscle contusions, both occurring at a rate of 1.1 injuries per 100 player-hours. Male players suffered a significantly higher rate of ankle ligament injuries compared with female players (1.24 versus 0.43, P < 0.05), while female players suffered a significantly higher rate of knee ligament injuries (0.87 versus 0.29, P < 0.01). Goalkeepers had injury rates (4.2) similar to players in nongoalkeeper positions (4.5).

Ergonomics in the Operating Room: Recommendations for Orthopaedic Surgeons.
J Am Acad Orthop Surg
March 2025
From the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN (Valtanen), and the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Stanford University, Stanford, CA (van Niekerk and Chu).
Orthopaedic surgeons face notable occupational hazards, including suboptimal ergonomics in the operating room (OR). This results in high rates of musculoskeletal injuries that affect at least four in 10 orthopaedic surgeons. Sex disparities exacerbate these issues, with female surgeons reporting markedly higher rates of occupational injuries and discomfort with surgical instrument use compared with male surgeons.

Background: Dengue, the fastest-spreading vector-borne disease (VBD), significantly burdens global health systems. This study analyzed the trends in the global burden of dengue from 1990 to 2021, utilizing data from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2021 (GBD 2021).
Methodology/principal Findings: We retrieved data from GBD 2021 regarding dengue, including the number of incidences and age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR), the number of deaths and age-standardized death rate (ASDR), disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) and age-standardized DALYs.
sPLA2-IB and PLA2R Mediate Aberrant Glucose Metabolism in Podocytes via Hyperactivation of the mTOR/HIF-1α Pathway.

Division of Nephrology, Shanghai Pudong Hospital, Fudan University, Pudong Medical Center, Shanghai, China.
Secretory phospholipase A2 group IB (sPLA2-IB) and M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) are closely related to proteinuria and idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN). Podocytes are important components of the glomerular filtration barrier and glucose metabolism, including glycolysis and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, is crucial for maintaining podocyte physiological function. Aberrant energy metabolism has been reported in proteinuria diseases, including diabetic nephropathy.

Hernia

Division of Trauma, Critical Care, and General Surgery, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, USA.
Purpose: Trocar site hernias impact 1-10% of patients undergoing a laparoscopic cholecystectomy, typically at the 10 mm port site. Risk factors identified for trocar site hernias include obesity and age; however, little is known about the impact of pre-existing diastasis rectus abdominus (DRA) on trocar site hernia rates. Therefore, we aimed to determine the impact of pre-operative DRA on trocar site hernia rates after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Urticaria has become a major public health challenge in China, yet comprehensive national data assessments are lacking. This study analyzes the burden of urticaria in China compared to G20 countries from 1990 to 2021. Using data from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2021, we examined the incidence, prevalence, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of urticaria by age and sex in China.
