Abstract:
Objective. The primary objective of the study was to estimate the rates of polypharmacy among individuals with multimorbidity defined as chronic condition clusters and examine their associations with polypharmacy. Methods. Cross-sectional analysis of 10,528 individuals of age above 21, with at least one physical condition in cardiometabolic (diabetes or heart disease or hypertension), musculoskeletal (arthritis or osteoporosis), and respiratory (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma) clusters from the 2009 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey. Chi-square tests and logistic regressions were performed to analyze the association between polypharmacy and multimorbidity. Results. Polypharmacy rates varied from a low of 7.2% among those with respiratory cluster to a high of 64.1% among those with all three disease clusters. Among those with two or more disease clusters, the rates varied from 28.3% for musculoskeletal and respiratory clusters to 41.8% for those with cardiometabolic and respiratory clusters. Individual with cardiometabolic conditions alone or in combination with other disease clusters were more likely to have polypharmacy. Compared to those with musculoskeletal and respiratory conditions, those with cardiometabolic and respiratory conditions had 1.68 times higher likelihood of polypharmacy. Conclusions. Rates of polypharmacy differed by specific disease clusters. Individuals with cardiometabolic condition were particularly at high risk of polypharmacy, suggesting greater surveillance for adverse drug interaction in this group.

Abstract:
Despite the relatively low incidence of acromegaly (60-70 cases per I million inhabitants), this disease has a special place among the heterogeneous group of diseases that lead to the defeat of the locomotor apparatus. The slow growth of the clinical manifestations of acromegaly and as a consequence, late diagnosis, the cause of early disability and premature death of patients. In order to improve the quality of life and social adaptation of patients to date is an obvious need to identify groups of patients with acromegaly, requiring additional therapy for osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. We performed the search in bibliographic bases MEDLINE and Cochrane Collaboration from 2000 on 2009. Key words were the following: acromegaly, acromegaly and arthropathy, osteoporosis and acromegaly, the bone mineral density and acromegaly, fractures and acromegaly. In this article the data about role of risk factors for the defeat ofosteoarticular apparatus, the dynamics of the articular syndrome and the state of bone tissue in acromegaly.

Abstract:
Tuberculous distal biceps tendon rupture is a rare condition in orthopedics. Musculoskeletal tuberculosis usually presents with bursitis, synovitis, myositis, and osteomyelitis, conditions which demonstrate an excellent response to antituberculosis chemotherapy. Tendon rupture is often associated with delayed diagnosis and treatment. We report a rare manifestation of musculoskeletal tuberculosis in the distal biceps tendon with delayed diagnosis.

Abstract:
Background/Aims There is a need for greater focus on public health and its impact on musculoskeletal conditions within healthcare delivery. Physiotherapists are well positioned to support this. Outpatient physiotherapy musculoskeletal services traditionally focus on rehabilitation and physical exercise, yet many service users require support to improve both their mental and physical health. This innovative service improvement aimed to embed integrated health promotion within musculoskeletal physiotherapy service delivery. Methods A physiotherapy-led multidisciplinary team introduced patients to other community-based support services to address wider health needs. Results Service evaluation demonstrated a high uptake of self-referral to community services, validating the potential benefit for musculoskeletal condition management. Positive patient feedback indicates that patients valued the service and were well-supported to engage with health improvement. Conclusions Musculoskeletal physiotherapy services need to consider the wider aspects of health, putting public health at the heart of musculoskeletal service delivery.

Abstract:
Background and PurposeBecause musculoskeletal conditions contribute to functional decline and activity limitation, physical therapy intervention may be an appropriate health care resource. The purpose of this research was to identify determinants of outpatient physical therapy use by people with musculoskeletal conditions.SubjectsThe subjects were adult noninstitutionalized civilians who participated in the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey from 1996 to 2000 and who had at least one musculoskeletal condition (N=18,546).MethodsLogistic regression was used to identify predisposing, need, and enabling variables associated with receiving outpatient physical therapy services.ResultsFactors that were positively associated with receiving physical therapy services were having more than one musculoskeletal condition, having some limitation in function, having 7 or more ICD-9 (International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision) codes, having a college or advanced degree, and residing in an urban area. Factors that were negatively associated with receiving physical therapy services were being older than 65 years of age, having no high school degree, Hispanic ethnicity, African-American race, having public insurance or no insurance, and living in any US census region besides the Northeast.Discussion and ConclusionThe results of this study indicate that health- and non–health-related factors influence outpatient physical therapy use.

Abstract:
Complaint of pain due to work related musculoskeletal disorder at workplace is nothing new. Nevertheless, in Malaysia, the data leading to this is near to none, when healthcare industry is concerned. The purpose of this article is to evaluate the current physical condition at red zone of accident and emergency department at selected hospitals and has the current condition contribute to the work-related musculoskeletal disorder among healthcare personnel. The study is conducted at five red zones of accident and emergency department of Malaysia tertiary hospitals. Before conducting the study, ethical approval has been obtained from ethical committee of Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia. Method used in this study is workplace assessment, which allows first-hand experienced to determine and evaluate the real condition of red zone at selected hospitals. Duration of twelve months is required to complete the assessment. During the workplace assessment, the lighting at red zone (focusing on bed area), the bed space, arrangement of equipment and height of monitors are observed, measured and recorded. Result show, every red zone is unique with its own layout and design. There is no standardization among all the red zones involved. Existing guideline for physical condition of red zone of accident and emergency does not exist. Thus, relationship between physical condition of existing red zone and whether it causes work related musculoskeletal disorder must be discussed in length.

Abstract:
Working culture and ergonomics of any individual plays an important role in the physical and mental health of the person. The study about male street hawkers and the ergonomics assessment which carries hawkers’ musculoskeletal condition along with physical condition are combined and their impact is widespread. They are the most common cause of severe long-term pain and physical disability affecting the psychosocial status of affected people as well as their families and caretakers. In all occupations, incorrect body posture is the most important cause of musculoskeletal disorders. The study was aimed to examine 40 random street hawkers and their working posture using the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) method. It was analyzed that around 70 % of hawkers had a medium to high risk of developing work related musculoskeletal disorder. Trunk, upper arm and lower arm postures were mainly contributing to the REBA score, putting street hawkers at high risk of developing a musculoskeletal disorder. Ergonomic intervention to reduce musculoskeletal disorders includes engineering improvements which include rearranging, modifying, redesigning equipments which eliminates and reduces the hazard due to improper body posture and long working hour cycles. Mechanization of the stalls to reduce the musculoskeletal strain is possible. In areas, where mechanization is not possible, ergonomically correct measures to avoid musculoskeletal disorders are to be taken.

Full text
Abstract:
Musculoskeletal conditions and exercise-induced pulmonary haemorrhage are commonly diagnosed in Thoroughbred racehorses worldwide, and have serious consequences for racehorse welfare and the racing economy. Despite increasing interest in the study of genetic susceptibility to disease from the veterinary research community as a whole over past decades, the Thoroughbred has been largely ignored as a study group. The availability of software capable of complex genetic analyses using large, unbalanced pedigrees has made the study of genetic susceptibility to disease a realistic prospect for veterinary researchers. This study aimed to complete preliminary analyses of the genetics of a number of important musculoskeletal conditions, and of exercise-induced pulmonary haemorrhage, in two different Thoroughbred populations. Multivariable regression analyses were performed to identify important environmental risk factors for each condition in each population, and heritability analyses were conducted. Genetic correlations between disease conditions were also investigated. Fracture, tendon injury, suspensory ligament injury, osteoarthritis and EIPH/epistaxis were found to be heritable traits in the Hong Kong population. Distal limb fracture, SDFT injury and epistaxis were also found to be heritable in the UK Thoroughbred population. Most heritability estimates were small or moderate in magnitude. Selective breeding strategies that identify those animals with low genetic risk could play a part in future efforts to reduce the incidence of these conditions, in conjunction with favourable environmental manipulations based on research evidence. Due to low heritability, most of the conditions studied here would reduce in incidence slowly if selective breeding were implemented, thus strategic environmental manipulations would be warranted alongside such longer-term efforts to provide effective incidence reductions. A number of conditions were found to be positively genetically correlated, suggesting that risk reduction through breeding could reduce the risk of multiple diseases concurrently. For example, fracture and osteoarthritis were found to be positively genetically correlated (0.85 – 0.89) in the Hong Kong racehorse population. However, using the Hong Kong Thoroughbred population dataset, EIPH/epistaxis and tendon injury were negatively genetically correlated, which suggests that reduction in genetic risk of one of these may lead to increased genetic risk of the other. iii Measures of the durability and performance of racehorses were investigated to assess whether they were heritable traits in the UK and Hong Kong racehorse populations, and to assess their relationship to the disease conditions studied. Selection based on more holistic measures of horse health and longevity such as ‘career length’ could be a more attractive prospect for stakeholders, as this could forego the need to select for many different traits individually. Career length, number of starts over the career, and the level of earnings were all heritable traits in both populations. These holistic traits were found to have variable relationships with the disease conditions studied in each population. These analyses are the first to assess the genetic contribution to risk for many important diseases in the Thoroughbred. They provide a starting point from which further investigations into the applicability of genetic manipulations could yield realistic and achievable tools for racing stakeholders to use to ‘improve’ the breed in future.

Full text
Abstract:
Musculoskeletal knee conditions present a growing burden for community based rehabilitation. Outcome measures profile current health status, detect change and evaluate response to interventions. There is, however, an abundance of outcome measures but no recommendation on which to use or what data to collect, leading to widespread variation in practice. The purpose of this study was to identify those outcome measures with robust scientific evidence for adults undergoing conservative treatment of musculoskeletal knee conditions and establish, through consensus with clinicians, researchers and patients, which are acceptable and feasible for use in community based settings. An investigation of current clinical practice in NHS Scotland profiled data collection and outcome measure use in community rehabilitation. Evidenced based, validated patient vignettes were developed to establish the scope of the study. The literature reporting and testing the clinimetric properties of outcome measures was systematically reviewed and the OMERACT filters of 'truth' and 'discrimination' applied to the data for each outcome measure by an expert panel. Those measures meeting predefined quality thresholds were presented to a national Consensus Development Conference where delegates voted on their acceptability and feasibility, followed by wider public consultation. None of the 37 outcome measures identified had been fully tested or were fully supported with sufficient quality and breadth of evidence for all components of the OMERACT filter, only ten met the preset criteria for 'truth' and 'discrimination' . Five were presented to Conference and two (Lysholm and WOMAC) were subsequently recommended for use in clinical practice. Barriers to implementation included time, administration and cost. This thesis reports on a study to recommend a core set of outcome measures that could facilitate standardisation of data collection and demonstrate effectiveness of interventions for adults with musculoskeletal conditions of the knee. It captures thoughts and concerns of clinicians on the introduction of a minimum core set of outcome measures.

Full text
Abstract:
Musculoskeletal (MSK) pain is a major reason why people consult their general practitioner. Analgesia plays a central role in its treatment but do not always work, resulting in the need to switch amongst analgesia potency levels. Stronger analgesia is however associated with increased adverse effects. The aim was to investigate the use of robust statistical approaches to determine socio-demographic and clinical factors associated with receiving and switching, prescribed analgesia in primary care management of MSK pain. The first phase reviewed statistical methods previously used in modelling medication switching, and established that Cox proportional hazards and logistic regression models were predominantly used. The second phase investigated the prevalence of prescribed analgesia, factors associated with being prescribed analgesia, and prescription patterns in the management of new MSK conditions using a general practice database. In 3236 incident consulters, 42% were prescribed analgesia, NSAIDs being most prescribed. In a 5 year follow-up period, three prescription patterns were identified: no analgesia or basic analgesia only, use of NSAIDs, and multiple-potency analgesia combinations. The main baseline factors associated with being prescribed analgesia, and stronger analgesia were increasing age and having been previously prescribed analgesia. The third phase used Cox and Weibull frailty models to identify factors associated with switching analgesia and switching to stronger analgesia. The main factors identified were age, gender and initially prescribed analgesia. The fourth phase used a prevalent cohort of 1610 patients aged 50+ with linked self-reported and medical record data. Patient-reported factors such as level of physical function and pain interference were also associated with switching of analgesia. Using a propensity score approach to modelling outcomes suggested those who switched analgesia did not have better three year outcomes, but further research is required to establish if switching analgesia is beneficial in reducing pain and improving function.

Abstract:
Little or no research has been conducted to explore patients' expectations of physiotherapy, or the effect that pre-conceived expectations might have on the outcome of treatment. This thesis aimed to fill that void. Stage one involved a review of the literature to develop a conceptual framework and understanding of expectations and how they may affect outcome. Stage two explored the evidence regarding the role of patients' expectations of physiotherapy and the impact that such expectations may have on the outcome of treatment. Three studies were carried out (1) a Delphi study with physiotherapists; (2) exploratory interviews with patients; and (3) the development and testing of a questionnaire. Stage three examined the relationship between patients' expectations of benefit and the outcome of physiotherapy using a postal survey of patients, with upper or lower limb musculoskeletal problems. Stage four consisted of a randomised-controlled trial aimed at determining whether manipulation of patients' expectations of benefit could influence treatment outcome in patients with non-traumatic knee problems. The results from stage one suggested that patient expectations were likely to be associated with patients' previous experiences of physiotherapy, anecdotal knowledge, preferences, expectation of benefit, time related issues, such as duration of condition (chronicity), educational level and work status. In stage two, the Delphi study with thirteen physiotherapists, resulted in a list of factors, ranked in order of importance, that they believed may influence the outcome of physiotherapy. The list concurred with the literature. Twelve patients were then interviewed. They generally had a positive view of physiotherapy, understood why they needed to have physiotherapy, but had limited knowledge of what physiotherapy is, what physiotherapists do or what level of involvement that they would have in their treatment. Their knowledge came mainly from first-hand or anecdotal experience of physiotherapy. Finally, a questionnaire was developed to gather information on patients' expectations and tested on 18 patients. The survey in stage three (n=289) found statistically significant positive relationships (p<0.002) between expectations of benefit before treatment and trauma, upper limb problems, locus of control and satisfaction with the health care received so far. Furthermore, negative relationships were found between the expectations variable and duration of condition and previous experience of physiotherapy. A statistically significant positive relationship (p<0.004) was also found between expectations of benefit and treatment outcome in terms of change in functional disability, perceived improvement, change in health status and satisfaction. Finally, 95 patients with nontraumatic knee problems participated in the randomised controlled trial in stage four. However, the results found no evidence that the intervention, through changes In expectations or locus of control, improved the outcome of physiotherapy. The research carried out in this thesis appears to support the notion that the characteristics that patients demonstrate in terms of their beliefs, perceptions and cognitions appear to have some influence on the course of their physiotherapy. The findings suggest that physiotherapists need to be more aware of the psychological attributes of their patients as well as the effect that their intervention (communication, handling and therapeutic) has on their patients' beliefs, perceptions and cognitions. However, further research is needed to determine whether, and by what means, patients' expectations can be influenced to improve the outcome of physiotherapy.

Abstract:
Background: Emerging evidence suggests that aerobic exercise and conditioned pain modulation may be advocated in treating patients with musculoskeletal pain. The effects of lower extremity aerobic exercise and conditioned pain modulation on evoked shoulder pain are not known. Purpose: To determine the acute effects of lower extremity aerobic exercise and conditioned pain modulation on outcomes of evoked shoulder pain from pain pressure threshold measurements. Study Design: Repeated measures. Methods: Thirty (30) healthy volunteers were tested over the course of two sessions. Session 1 consisted of collecting pain pressure threshold measurements over the infraspinatus before and immediately following a conditioned pain modulation with cool water. Session 2 consisted of collecting pain pressure threshold measurements over the infraspinatus before and immediately following a bout of lower extremity aerobic exercise on a recumbent stepper apparatus. Results: Pain pressure threshold was not significantly influenced by the conditioned pain modulation using cool water (p=0.725). Pain pressure threshold was significantly increased immediately following the lower extremity exercise session (P<0.001). Conclusion: Conditioned pain modulation with cool water did not produce any significant changes in pain pressure threshold. Lower extremity aerobic exercise acutely increased pain pressure threshold in participants with experimentally induced shoulder pain. Physical therapists may consider lower extremity aerobic exercise to produce short-term hypoalgesic effects and facilitate the application of more active interventions.

Abstract:
Knowledge of the movements of the whole spine and lumbosacral joint is important for evaluating clinical pathologic conditions that may potentially produce unstable situations in human body movements. At present there are few studies that report systematic three-dimensional (3D) movement and force analysis of the whole spine. In this paper, a fully discretized bio-fidelity 3D musculoskeletal simulation model for biomechanical (kinematic) analysis of scoliosis for a patient with right thoracolumbar scoliosis is presented. It is important to note that this method can be used for modeling various types of scoliosis. It should be noted that this is the first time that such a detailed model of this kind has been constructed according to known literature. The combined loading conditions acting on the intervertebral joints and corresponding angles between vertebrae were analyzed during lateral bending through the motion capturing and musculoskeletal modeling of two female subjects, one with normal spine and the other with scoliosis. The scoliosis subject who participated in this study has thoracolumbar scoliosis with convexity to the right. Since lateral bending is one of the typical tasks used by clinicians to determine the severity of scoliosis condition, the motion data of the subjects in lateral bending while standing was captured. These motion data were assigned to train the musculoskeletal multi-body models for the inverse and forward dynamics simulations. The mobility of the ribcage, joint angle, as well as joint force were analyzed using the developed simulation model. According to the results obtained the combined loadings at the lumbar joints in the scoliosis model are considerably higher than the loads of the normal model in this exercise. This research has investigated the effect of thoracolumbar scoliosis on spinal angles and joint forces in lateral bending by the application of motion data capturing and virtual musculoskeletal modeling. The results of this study contribute to a better understanding of human spine biomechanics and help future investigations on scoliosis to understand its development as well as improved treatment processes.

Abstract:
This study identified the required risk factors for Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA) patients and formulated a predictive model based on the identified variables. Extensive review of related work was done so as to understand the body of knowledge surrounding musculoskeletal related diseases and to identify knee osteoarthritis as one of the diseases under musculoskeletal condition as well as elicit the risk factors for it, these were validated from medical experts. The model to forecast knee osteoarthritis was formulated comparing four supervised machine learning algorithms namely Naïve Bayes, Multilayer perceptron, C4.5 Decision Tree and Support Vector Machine. The result of the model showed an accuracy of 97.59% considering the 36 initially identified attributes using no feature selection method, the results also showed the minimum number of variables relevant for knee osteoarthritis condition. Further results showed that all identified variables are relevant for effective and efficient development of a prognostic model for knee osteoarthritis. The study concluded that age as the most important variable for KOA and that all 36 identified attributes are relevant for predicting the risk of KOA. Keywords: Knee osteoarthritis, Prognostic Model, Machine learning.

Abstract:
In this study the effects of using different musculoskeletal models on load-displacement behavior of FE models of the human lumbar spine under external loads and moments have been analyzed in terms of equilibrium and clinical stability. A simplified and a complex architecture of muscles have been integrated to FE based models of lumbar spine and were loaded to simulate the load carrying behavior of human lumbar spine in flexion, extension and lateral bending. The displacement values as well as muscle forces have been computed and compared in both cases using optimization methods with different cost functions. The models showed similar kinematics in pure flexion but the simplified model showed instability in flexion-lateral bending and pure lateral bending conditions. The complex model was loaded and analyzed with different cost function and it was observed that displacements in the model are lower while the angle between the load vector and spine curvature at each level is minimized. It was shown that the model is less stable in case an asymmetric loading condition is applied.

Abstract:
The increased automation of the car manufacturing process, in which much of the assembly has been delegated from man to machine, has done much to relieve workers of the burden of heavy lifting. However, despite ergonomic improvements in the workplace, many jobs still require workers to perform repetitive tasks [1]. In the automotive industry, Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorders (WMSD) are one of the most common occupational problems due to repetitive working tasks. Workers that perform manual work are often prone to awkward postures, repetitive movements, forceful exertions, and overextensions, which are some of the main factors for the arising of WMSD [2]. Besides, these work-related factors, also the personal factors contribute to the occurrence of this kind of injury, making WMSD a complex condition that involves contributions from many factors [3,4]. The current study aims to compare different observational methods commonly used to assess the WMSD risk in repetitive tasks. To accomplish this goal a case of study in assembly workstation of an automotive company in Portugal was applied. It was selected methods that are widely used by ergonomists and are validated for implementation in the industry [5,6]. Therefore, the following methods were applied to an assembly workstation: (i) Rapid Upper-Limb Assessment (RULA), (ii) Occupational Repetitive Actions (OCRA), (ii) Key Indicator Method – Manual Handling Operations (KIM-MHO), and (iv) Revised Strain Index (RSI) This multi-method approach was very important, as it allowed for a more comprehensive assessment, which will support the proposals for improvement The results show that workstation present a considerable WMSD risk in 3 of 4 methods applied. These results suggest that a change to the workstation is necessary. A possible solution would be to implement a Human-robot collaboration solution, in order to reduce the physical demands associated with repetitive movements [7] to which workers are subjected.

Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced to most organizations to implement remote work as a viable option to continue working. Worldwide this is the normal current situation, and Peru has not been the exception to this issue. However, the lack of adequate readiness to manage this working modality has resulted in the appearance of musculoskeletal discomfort. The prevalence and severity of this health condition increase as more time has passed since the onset of this situation. This readiness includes both, having adequate space and furniture at home, as well as having healthy posture and habits.In this study we will analyze the impact that remote work has had on people's ergonomics and how different factors influence it. We will also present some proposed actions to adapt the remote workplace to reduce the incidence on this health condition, under de understanding that this situation will continue as part of the new normal for most organizations.

Full text
Abstract:
Musculoskeletal adaptations to aging and disuse environment have significant physiological effects on skeletal health, i.e., osteopenia and bone loss. Osteoporosis often occurs together with muscle loss. Such musculoskeletal complications cause severe physiologic changes and have been proposed the synergistic effects of muscle function and bone adaptation. The role of mechanobiology in the skeletal tissue may be closely related to load-induced transductive signals, e.g., bone fluid flow, which is proposed to be a critical mediator of bone and muscle adaptation. The skeletal muscle may serve as a muscle pump that may mediate bone mechanotransduction via modulation of intramedullary pressure. Muscular stimulation (MS) is proposed to be used to simultaneously treat both muscle and bone loss. Indeed, our recent data have demonstrated that high frequency, short duration stimulation can inhibit bone loss and muscle atrophy. Although 10 min dynamic loading can effectively attenuate bone loss, it cannot totally recover disuse osteopenia. The optimal parameters required for such treatment are unclear. Studies have separately investigated the optimal signal parameters for bone or muscle. Insertion of recovery periods during high frequency stimulations to extend the loading cycles have shown potential to reduce muscle atrophy by minimizing fatigue and mimicking physiologic contractions, and demonstrated enhancement of bone remodeling. The overall hypothesis for this study is that dynamic MS can enhance anabolic activity in bone, and inhibit bone loss in a functional disuse condition. Combined high frequency and sufficient loading cycle may be able to completely mitigate bone loss induced by disuse osteopenia.

Abstract:
This paper presents an intervention proposal for a group of workers, known as power line workers, who are responsible for mounting, operating and maintaining energy power lines for a company that provides public utility services in Medellin, Colombia. Power line workers have been characterized by high levels of disability and the adverse effects of MSDs, in particular tendonitis that affects the rotator cuff muscles in the shoulder; a condition that has, in the past, led to high levels of work relocation. Following an analysis of the workplace and the implementation of an instrument for the assessment and perception of musculoskeletal discomfort and the affected joint areas, a proposal known as "PREPARE FOR WORK" was developed. This proposal included: awareness in looking after those body parts to be targeted, a physical exercise program, and a monitoring program that would provide ongoing feedback from the group of workers based on their perceptions of the exercises carried out prior to work. This will lead to the second application of the questionnaire known as Profile of Muscle-Joint MSD Prevention Program, a strategy to measure impact and improve intervention if necessary.

Abstract:
To study the impact of compliant terrains on the biomechanics of rapid legged movements, a well-known spring loaded inverted pendulum (SLIP) model is deployed. The model is a three-degrees-of-freedom system (3 DOF), inspired by galloping greyhounds competing in a racing condition. A single support phase of hind-leg stance in a galloping gait is taken into consideration due to its primary function in powering the greyhounds locomotion and higher rate of musculoskeletal injuries. To obtain and solve the nonlinear second-order differential equation of motions, the Lagrangian method and MATLABb R2017b (ode45 solver), which is based on the Runge-Kutta method, has been used, respectively. To get the viscoelastic behavior of compliant terrains, a Clegg hammer test was developed and performed five times on each sample. The effective spring and damping coefficients of each sample were then determined from the hysteresis curves. The results showed that galloping on the synthetic rubber requires more muscle force compared with wet sand. However, according to the Clegg hammer test, wet sand had a higher impact force than synthetic rubber which can be a risk factor for bone fracture, particularly hock fracture, in greyhounds. The results reported in this paper are not only useful for identifying optimum terrain properties and injury thresholds of an athletic track, but also can be used to design control methods and shock impedances for legged robots performing on compliant terrains.

Abstract:
Objectives. To evaluate the effectiveness and comparative effectiveness of opioid, nonopioid pharmacologic, and nonpharmacologic therapy in patients with specific types of acute pain, including effects on pain, function, quality of life, adverse events, and long-term use of opioids. Data sources. Electronic databases (Ovid® MEDLINE®, PsycINFO®, Embase®, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews) to August 2020, reference lists, and a Federal Register notice. Review methods. Using predefined criteria and dual review, we selected randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of outpatient therapies for eight acute pain conditions: low back pain, neck pain, other musculoskeletal pain, neuropathic pain, postoperative pain following discharge, dental pain (surgical or nonsurgical), pain due to kidney stones, and pain due to sickle cell disease. Meta-analyses were conducted on pharmacologic therapy for dental pain and kidney stone pain, and likelihood of repeat or rescue medication use and adverse events. The magnitude of effects was classified as small, moderate, or large using previously defined criteria, and strength of evidence was assessed. Results. One hundred eighty-three RCTs on the comparative effectiveness of therapies for acute pain were included. Opioid therapy was probably less effective than nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for surgical dental pain and kidney stones, and might be similarly effective as NSAIDs for low back pain. Opioids and NSAIDs were more effective than acetaminophen for surgical dental pain, but opioids were less effective than acetaminophen for kidney stone pain. For postoperative pain, opioids were associated with increased likelihood of repeat or rescue analgesic use, but effects on pain intensity were inconsistent. Being prescribed an opioid for acute low back pain or postoperative pain was associated with increased likelihood of use of opioids at long-term followup versus not being prescribed, based on observational studies. Heat therapy was probably effective for acute low back pain, spinal manipulation might be effective for acute back pain with radiculopathy, acupressure might be effective for acute musculoskeletal pain, an opioid might be effective for acute neuropathic pain, massage might be effective for some types of postoperative pain, and a cervical collar or exercise might be effective for acute neck pain with radiculopathy. Most studies had methodological limitations. Effect sizes were primarily small to moderate for pain, the most commonly evaluated outcome. Opioids were associated with increased risk of short-term adverse events versus NSAIDs or acetaminophen, including any adverse event, nausea, dizziness, and somnolence. Serious adverse events were uncommon for all interventions, but studies were not designed to assess risk of overdose, opioid use disorder, or long-term harms. Evidence on how benefits or harms varied in subgroups was lacking. Conclusions. Opioid therapy was associated with decreased or similar effectiveness as an NSAID for some acute pain conditions, but with increased risk of short-term adverse events. Evidence on nonpharmacological therapies was limited, but heat therapy, spinal manipulation, massage, acupuncture, acupressure, a cervical collar, and exercise were effective for specific acute pain conditions. Research is needed to determine the comparative effectiveness of therapies for sickle cell pain, acute neuropathic pain, neck pain, and management of postoperative pain following discharge; effects of therapies for acute pain on non-pain outcomes; effects of therapies on long-term outcomes, including long-term opioid use; and how benefits and harms of therapies vary in subgroups.
