Global, regional, and national incidence of six major immune-mediated inflammatory diseases: findings from the global burden of disease study 2019

BACKGROUND: The causes for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) are diverse and the incidence trends of IMIDs from specific causes are rarely studied. The study aims to investigate the pattern and trend of IMIDs from 1990 to 2019. METHODS: We collected detailed information on six major causes of IMIDs, including asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and atopic dermatitis, between 1990 and 2019, derived from the Global Burden of Disease study in 2019. The average annual percent change (AAPC) in number of incidents and age standardized incidence rate (ASR) on IMIDs, by sex, age, region, and causes, were calculated to quantify the temporal trends. FINDINGS: In 2019, rheumatoid arthritis, atopic dermatitis, asthma, multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease accounted 1.59%, 36.17%, 54.71%, 0.09%, 6.84%, 0.60% of overall new IMIDs cases, respectively. The ASR of IMIDs showed substantial regional and global variation with the highest in High SDI region, High-income North America, and United States of America. Throughout human lifespan, the age distribution of incident cases from six IMIDs was quite different. Globally, incident cases of IMIDs increased with an AAPC of 0.68 and the ASR decreased with an AAPC of −0.34 from 1990 to 2019. The incident cases increased across six IMIDs, the ASR of rheumatoid arthritis increased (0.21, 95% CI 0.18, 0.25), while the ASR of asthma (AAPC = −0.41), inflammatory bowel disease (AAPC = −0.72), multiple sclerosis (AAPC = −0.26), psoriasis (AAPC = −0.77), and atopic dermatitis (AAPC = −0.15) decreased. The ASR of overall and six individual IMID increased with SDI at regional and global level. Countries with higher ASR in 1990 experienced a more rapid decrease in ASR. INTERPRETATION: The incidence patterns of IMIDs varied considerably across the world. Innovative prevention and integrative management strategy are urgently needed to mitigate the increasing ASR of rheumatoid arthritis and upsurging new cases of other five IMIDs, respectively.

The acute effect of common peroneal nerve electrical stimulation on quadriceps maximum activity failure in patient with knee osteo arthritis after ten physiotherapy sessions

Introduction: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent OA worldwide, particularly in the USA. Studies show that knee OA leads to functional limitations, including problems with weight tolerance during walking, climbing stairs, household activities, and lightweight package transport. Since the quadriceps muscles play a critical role in weight tolerance throughout the knee joint, weakness in these muscles diminishes the capacity to protect the knee and results in knee susceptibility to more physical stress and developed structural injuries. Abnormal quadriceps muscle functioning that often manifests into weakness is part of a movement disorder presumably due to certain neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease (PD), stroke, etc., or knee injuries after surgery, arthritis, traumatic injuries, and more. This weakness can originate from atrophy or neural inhibition that prevents maximal activation of the quadriceps muscle. This condition is called arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI), which Hopkins first introduced in 1990. AMI is associated with several causes, including swelling, inflammation, pain, joint stiffness, and structural damage, though the importance of these causes remains unclear. Consistently, this phenomenon is caused by discharging the sensory receptors in the damaged knee joint.&nbsp

Therapeutic and diagnostic applications of nanoparticles in the management of COVID-19: a comprehensive overview

Abstract In December 2019, Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) was reported in Wuhan, China. Comprehensive strategies for quick identification, prevention, control, and remedy of COVID-19 have been implemented until today. Advances in various nanoparticle-based technologies, including organic and inorganic nanoparticles, have created new perspectives in this field. These materials were extensively used to control COVID-19 because of their specific attribution to preparing antiviral face masks, various safety sensors, etc. In this review, the most current nanoparticle-based technologies, applications, and achievements against the coronavirus were summarized and highlighted. This paper also offers nanoparticle preventive, diagnostic, and treatment options to combat this pandemic. Graphical Abstrac

Analysis of transport processes in a reacting flow of hybrid nanofluid around a bluff-body embedded in porous media using artificial neural network and particle swarm optimization

This paper investigates heat and mass transfer in a hybrid nanofluid flow impinging upon a cylindrical bluff-body embedded in porous media and featuring homogenous and heterogeneous chemical reactions. The analysis includes mixed convection and local thermal non-equilibrium in the porous medium as well as Soret and Dufour effects. Assuming single-phase mixture, a laminar flow of Al2O3-Cu-water (Aluminium oxide-Copper-water) hybrid nanofluid is considered and coupled transport processes are simulated computationally. Due to the significant complexity of this problem, containing a large number of variables, conventional approaches to parametric study struggle to provide meaningful outcomes. As a remedy, the simulation data are fed into an artificial neural network to estimate the target responses. This shows that the volume fraction of nanoparticles, interfacial area of the porous medium and mixed convection parameter, are of primary importance. It is also observed that small variation in the volume fraction of nanoparticles can considerably alter the response of thermal and solutal domains. Further, it is shown that the parameters affecting the thermal process can modify the problem chemically. In particular, raising the volume fraction of nanoparticles enhances the production of chemical species. Furthermore, particle swarm optimization is applied to predict correlations for Nusselt and Sherwood numbers through a systematic identification of the most influential parameters. The current study clearly demonstrates the advantages of using the estimator algorithms to understand and predict the behaviours of complex thermo-chemical and solutal systems
