Article Abstract
Background: Changes in human posture directly impact the structures of various body parts, often leading to musculoskeletal disorders. While identifying suitable treatments for pain associated with long-term postural abnormalities is important, preventing such conditions is demonstrably a superior solution. Spiral stabilization, known for its practical application, has proven effective in treating low back pain. However, its efficacy in correcting human posture warrants further validation.
Methods: A total of 71 participants with abnormal body posture, with a mean age of 33.68 ± 6.78 years, were included in this research. The participants underwent spiral stabilization practice for one hour daily for four days. The posture-related angles and deviations from the anterior and lateral views were calculated by the Exbody musculoskeletal analysis system.
Results: There are statistically significant improvements in most posture-related angles and deviations after the intervention of the spiral stabilization technique compared to before the intervention (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that the spiral stabilization technique is a potential intervention for improving human posture. It may become an effective fitness exercise that is widely adopted in daily life to prevent postural abnormalities.
Trial Registration: Registration date is July 10, 2021. The registration number is ChiCTR2100048568.

A computational investigation on the total cavopulmonary connection circulation assisted by an axial flow pump.

Objective: Fontan surgery constructs Total Cavo-Pulmonary Connection Circulation (TCPC), but lacks power. Cavopulmonary circulation assist devices (CPAD) has been proposed to support the Fontan circulation. The virtual implantation of blood pumps into the real TCPC structure to analyze the output characteristics of blood pump and flow pattern can better guide design of the pump and the formulation of powered Fontan surgical protocols.

Background: Digital-motor outcomes promise better responsiveness than clinician-reported outcomes in ataxia trials. However, their patient meaningfulness and sensitivity to change remain to be demonstrated, particularly in the upper limb domain.
Objectives: Validation of quantitative motor (Q-Motor) assessment for upper limb ataxia against patient-reported outcomes and regarding sensitivity to both longitudinal and treatment-induced change, the latter in n-of-1 treatment settings.
A Methionine-Rich Repeat Forms a Spiral Conformation That Guides Aragonite Nanofiber Organization in Molluscan Ligaments.

The hinge ligament of contains aragonite nanofibers embedded in a dense organic matrix primarily composed of ligament methionine (Met)-rich protein (LMP). LMP features a low-complexity region with 30 repeats of the Met-Met-Met-lysine-proline-aspartic acid (MMMKPD) sequence; however, its structural and functional roles remain unclear. Using synthetic peptides and solution nuclear magnetic resonance with dispersive aragonite particles, we observed that the MMMKPD repeat formed a unique spiral conformation distinct from canonical secondary structures, which was supported by AlphaFold predictions.

Background: In clinical practice, currently no standardised approach exists to determine which patients with cervical spine injury (CSI) on CT scan should receive continued cervical spine immobilisation and a neurosurgeon is generally consulted. Insights into the contribution of CT assessment and classification of CSI in determining the need for stabilising therapy could aid in standardising clinical practice in the emergency department. Standardising clinical practice for cervical spine immobilisation could potentially improve the patient flow in the emergency department by reducing delay in decision-making, particularly in hospitals without availability of immediate neurosurgical consultation.

This paper presents a bionic dual-fin underwater robot, inspired by the ocean sunfish, that achieves multiple swimming motions using only two vertically arranged fins. This work demonstrates that a mechanically simple platform can execute complex 2-D and 3-D motions through advanced control strategies, eliminating the need for auxiliary actuators. We control the two fins independently so that they can perform cooperative actions in the water, enabling the robot to perform various motions, including high-speed cruising, agile turning, controlled descents, proactive ascents, and continuous spiraling.
