In the present paper a series of experiments will be described in which the postural consequences of long (up to 1.5 h) duration 3G-centrifugation have been subject to investigation. A vestibular model is presented in order to explain for the postural imbalance found in specific conditions after the centrifuge run, and for the often concomitant feelings of motion sickness (50% of the subjects suffer from Sickness Induced by long duration Centrifugation). Finally, the possible relation between SIC and the Space Adaptation Syndrome is discussed.

"Metropolitan" General Hospital, Piraeus, Greece.
Objectives: The aim of the present analysis was to describe the clinical and demographic characteristics of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA) patients from Greece who were enrolled in the global PROOF study, and their longitudinal follow-up over 5 years to determine the impact of the disease on quality of life and patient-reported outcomes.
Methods: PROOF was an observational study that enrolled recently diagnosed (<1 year) patients fulfilling the Assessment of SpondyloArthritis International Society classification criteria from rheumatology clinical practices from 29 countries across 6 different geographical regions.
Results: Of the 100 Greek patients enrolled, 85 were classified based on local (investigator) evaluation of sacroiliac radiographs [AS: 56 (65.
Comparison of 1 Week Accelerated Ponseti and Standard Ponseti Technique for Management of Idiopathic Congenital Talipes Equinovarus Deformity in Infants: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Indian J Orthop
February 2025
Department of Orthopaedics, All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Phulwari Sharif, Aurangabad Road, Patna, Bihar 801507 India.
Background: The implementation of the standard Ponseti technique (SPT) in management of idiopathic clubfoot can be challenging due to the need for frequent travelling and long duration to achieve correction. The one week accelerated Ponseti technique (OWAPT) reduces the duration of correction to seven days and has been reported to be effective and safe. However, children still need to travel for change of cast.

Objectives: This analysis quantifies the potential long-term clinical and cost benefits of early and intensive metabolic control (EIMC) versus conventional management in patients newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in Italy.
Methods: The PRIME T2D Model was used to project clinical and cost outcomes over long-term time horizons for a newly diagnosed cohort of patients receiving EIMC or conventional management. EIMC was associated with a mean glycated hemoglobin reduction of 0.
