CONCLUSION: MHO are still frequent in many occupations. The shown association between MHO and pain in the hands and arms demonstrates the importance of MHO in the current German workforce and the necessity to further develop prevention strategies.

The effects of resistance training on children with burns: a meta-analysis by Sha Yang
The aim of this study was to evaluate effectiveness and safety of resistance training (RT). Data were retrieved from Medline, EMBASE, PubMed, CINAHL and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (Central) databases from inception to April 2020. Quantitative studies on RT for muscle strength, lean body mass, cardiopulmonary function, metabolism, quality of life, and pain…
Discovery and 3D imaging of a novel ΔNp63-expressing basal cell type in human pancreatic ducts with implications in disease by Sandrina Martens
CONCLUSION: In larger human pancreatic ducts, basal cells exist. ΔNp63 suppresses duct cell identity. These cells may play an important role in pancreatic disease, including PDAC ontogeny, but are not present in mouse models.
Post-injury benzodiazepine and opioid use among older adults involved in road traffic crashes: a Swedish register-based longitudinal study by Jeanne Duchesne
CONCLUSION: Several trajectories of psychotropic drug use were identified after RTI, from limited to chronic. Although chronic use was uncommon, a better understanding of the factors likely to increase that risk is warranted given the seriousness of the problem.
Self-management challenges following hospital discharge for patients with multimorbidity: a longitudinal qualitative study of a motivational interviewing intervention by Carina Brandberg
CONCLUSIONS: Self-management for patients with multimorbidity in the first post-discharge period does not equate to a fixed set of tasks, but varies over the post-discharge period. Self-management challenges include not only the burden of the disease itself, but also that of navigating and understanding the healthcare system. Hence, self-management support post-discharge involves both aiding patients…

Endpoints and new options for treatment of chronic hepatitis D by Anna S Lok
Therapy of chronic hepatitis D still relies on interferon alfa. However, efficacy is limited and better therapies are needed. Disruption of the interactions of HDV with the helper HBV or with the host is providing a new therapeutic paradigm and new treatment options are investigated. The evaluation of efficacy is made difficult by the lack…
Phase III Trials of Enhanced Versus Usual Care Physical Therapy for Patients at Risk for Poor Outcome Following Knee Arthroplasty: A Perspective on Meaning and a Way Forward by Daniel L Riddle
Physical therapy is routinely delivered to patients after discharge from the hospital following knee arthroplasty (KA). Posthospitalization physical therapy is thought to be beneficial, particularly for those patients most at risk for poor outcome, the subgroup with persistent function-limiting pain despite an apparently successful surgery. Research teams have undertaken 3 large-scale multicenter Phase III randomized…
Exploring how people with chronic pain understand their pain: a qualitative study by Sam Keen
CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that people understand pain through inconsistent experiential models that may resist attempts at conceptual integration. Participants’ elaborations showed diverse and dissonant conceptualisations, with experiential themes of restricted living; assault on the self; pursuit of understanding pain and abandonment of that pursuit. Responses, although unexpectedly compatible with PNE, suggested that PNE was…
Osteopathic Manual Treatment Compared to Kaltenborn-Evjenth Orthopedic Manual Therapy for Chronic Low Back Pain: A Randomized Study by Pawel Lizis
CONCLUSIONS: OMT was better at reducing pain and improving quality of life. It reduced functional disability more than KEOMT in patients with chronic LBP.

The Evaluation of Hepatitis B Screening and Reactivation in Patients Receiving Rituximab Containing Chemotherapy: A Single Center Study by Ilkay Bozkurt
CONCLUSION: Incomplete screening and inappropriate prophylaxis may result in HBV reactivation in patients under RTX based chemotherapy and related complications such as death.
