Physical Therapy Management Of A Manual Laborer With Chronic Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy: A Case Report

Background: Tendinopathy is characterized by tendon thickening, localized pain and chronic degeneration reflective of failed healing. 38% of manual laborers who participate in daily moderate to heavy lifting will experience Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy(RCT). There is a lack of research investigating the PT management of manual laborers who have RCT, but must continue to participate in harmful activities to fulfill occupational responsibilities. Purpose: The purpose of this case report was to describe the PT management of a patient with rotator cuff tendinopathy who, due to work requirements continued to participate in activities detrimental to the health of the supraspinatus and function of the shoulder girdle.https://dune.une.edu/pt_studcrposter/1036/thumbnail.jp

Conductive Graphene–Melamine Sponge Prepared via Microwave Irradiation

A conductive graphene–melamine sponge (MS) prepared via microwave irradiation is reported in this paper. Graphene oxide supported on the MS was prereduced first at 100 °C and then further reduced in a household microwave oven at over 1000 °C. It was surprising to find that graphene oxide on the MS was reduced perfectly while the three-dimensional structure of the MS was kept well after high-temperature reduction via microwave irradiation. Slight pyrolysis of MS was also found during 5 s microwave irradiation, resulting in nitrogen generation from the pyrolysis of the MS being doped into graphene, which could benefit the electric conductivity of the prepared graphene–MS. The electric conductivity of the prepared graphene–MS is about 0.12–1.0 S/m because of the high reduction degree of graphene oxide and nitrogen doping. On the other hand, different from the pure MS, the newly developed conductive graphene–MS possesses superhydrophobic and superoleophilic properties. Overall, the newly developed conductive graphene–MS contained 94.3 wt % MS and 5.7 wt % N-doped graphene and is a cost-effective material with good elasticity, high conductivity, superhydrophobicity, and superoleophilicity

Table_5_Transcriptional dynamics and regulatory function of milRNAs in Ascosphaera apis invading Apis mellifera larvae.XLSX

In the present study, small RNA (sRNA) data from Ascosphaera apis were filtered from sRNA-seq datasets from the gut tissues of A. apis-infected Apis mellifera ligustica worker larvae, which were combined with the previously gained sRNA-seq data from A. apis spores to screen differentially expressed milRNAs (DEmilRNAs), followed by trend analysis and investigation of the DEmilRNAs in relation to significant trends. Additionally, the interactions between the DEmilRNAs and their target mRNAs were verified using a dual-luciferase reporter assay. In total, 974 A. apis milRNAs were identified. The first base of these milRNAs was biased toward U. The expression of six milRNAs was confirmed by stem–loop RT-PCR, and the sequences of milR-3245-y and milR-10285-y were validated using Sanger sequencing. These miRNAs grouped into four significant trends, with the target mRNAs of DEmilRNAs involving 42 GO terms and 120 KEGG pathways, such as the fungal-type cell wall and biosynthesis of secondary metabolites. Further investigation demonstrated that 299 DEmilRNAs (novel-m0011-3p, milR-10048-y, bantam-y, etc.) potentially targeted nine genes encoding secondary metabolite-associated enzymes, while 258 (milR-25-y, milR-14-y, milR-932-x, etc.) and 419 (milR-4561-y, milR-10125-y, let-7-x, etc.) DEmilRNAs putatively targeted virulence factor-encoded genes and nine genes involved in the MAPK signaling pathway, respectively. Additionally, the interaction between ADM-B and milR-6882-x, as well as between PKIA and milR-7009-x were verified. Together, these results not only offer a basis for clarifying the mechanisms underlying DEmilRNA-regulated pathogenesis of A. apis and a novel insight into the interaction between A. apis and honey bee larvae, but also provide candidate DEmilRNA–gene axis for further investigation.</p
