COVID-19 presents a threat to the mental health of the medical staff working with COVID-19 patients.
To investigate the impact of working during the COVID-19 pandemic on resident physicians.
The study was conducted via anonymous online survey and included resident physicians. The survey contained questions about sociodemographic information, general job satisfaction during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their personal lives.
This study included a response from 728 resident physicians. The majority of residents rated that the COVID-19 pandemic had a mostly negative impact on their satisfaction with professional life (59.9%) and quality of work (62.8%), their personal lives (44.7%) and quality of life (57.1%). Half of all residents indicated that they did not have enough personal protective equipment (PPE). About one-third of residents indicated that the level of stress at work during the COVID-19 pandemic was higher.
Working as resident physicians during COVID-19 pandemic had a negative effect on participants' professional and personal lives. Residents did not have all the necessary PPE nor felt safe working with patients with suspected or proven COVID-19. Further action is needed to provide support for physician residents working during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In dental settings, COVID-19 can be transmitted directly from patients to dentists through small droplets, saliva splashes, blood, and other body fluids liberated as a result of dental procedures.
To determine the prevalence of ocular and facial injuries in dental professionals and to investigate factors in dental practice contributing to ocular injuries.
An analytical cross-sectional study was performed in public and private sector universities. The study had 301 participants including final year undergraduate students, interns, postgraduate trainees, general practitioners, and dental specialists. Data were gathered online using Google forms. Information on sociodemographic, practice details, history of ocular and facial encounters during the clinical experience, and protective measures adopted by the dentists were collected. Means and standard deviations were calculated for continuous variables whereas frequencies and percentages were calculated for categorical variables. A Chi-square test was applied19 through the eyes among practicing dentists.
Occurrence of ocular injuries were high compared to facial injuries and these outcomes were dependent on dental expertise and experiences. Appropriate measures should be adopted to minimize the risk of disease transmission and COVID-19 through the eyes among practicing dentists.
To provide a review of current knowledge about interventions aimed to facilitate young adults to return to work following work-related injuries.
A systematic review of published literature from the year 2010 and onwards was conducted to identify studies examining return to work interventions for young adults (aged 19-29) following work-related injuries using PubMed and Web of Science. Two reviewers conducted the screening process and assessed the study quality using the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute assessment tool for Observational Cohort and Cross-Sectional studies. Due to wide heterogeneity and small number of studies retained post-screening, a descriptive summary analysis of the included studies was conducted.
No studies were identified that focused exclusively on interventions for young adults. However, two studies, in which an age category of young adults was available, were included and assessed for quality. The study populations were primarily suffering from work-related injuries in the lower back or lower limbs. Both studies revealed that return to work interventions using a case manager coordinating and providing consultation, advice, and risk management to multidisciplinary teams was associated with lower sick leave days.
Despite the emerging evidence that young adults have higher rates of work-related injuries compared to older colleagues, information concerning work-related injuries and return to work interventions specifically targeting young workers is still lacking. Naphazoline cell line Further research is therefore needed to develop and evaluate return to work interventions for the population of young adults.

With the increasing rate of ambulatory disabilities and rise in the elderly population, advance methods to deliver the rehabilitation and assistive services to patients have become important. Lower limb robotic therapeutic and assistive aids have been found to improve the rehabilitation outcome.
The article aims to present the updated understanding in the field of lower limb rehabilitation robotics and identify future research avenues.
Groups of keywords relating to assistive technology, rehabilitation robotics, and lower limb were combined and searched in EMBASE, IEEE Xplore Digital Library, Scopus, Web of Science and Google Scholar database.
Based on the literature collected from the databases we provide an overview of the understanding of robotics in rehabilitation and state of the art devices for lower limb rehabilitation. Technological advancements in rehabilitation robotic architecture (sensing, actuation and control) and biomechanical considerations in design have been discussed. Finally, a discussion on the major advances, research directions, and challenges is presented.
Although the use of robotics has shown a promising approach to rehabilitation and reducing the burden on caregivers, extensive and innovative research is still required in both cognitive and physical human-robot interaction to achieve treatment efficacy and efficiency.

The mastoid vibration (MV) has been used to investigate unilateral vestibular dysfunction by inducing nystagmus. Additionally, this MV can be used to quantify the effect of deterioration by aging on the vestibular system during walking. link2 Could such MV be used to assess the uni/bilateral vestibular deterioration by aging during standing?
This study attempted to determine the feasibility of using MV for identifying the uni/bilateral vestibular deterioration by aging during standing.
Fifteen young and ten old adults' balance control patterns were assessed by three random MV conditions 1) No MV; 2) Unilateral MV; 3) Bilateral MV. The dependent variables were the 95% confidence ellipse areas and the sample entropy values, which were calculated based on the center of gravity displacement within each condition.
Significant main effects of MV and aging were found on all outcome variables. A significant interaction between aging and different MV types was observed in the 95% confidence ellipse area (p = 0.002) and the length of the short axis (anterior-posterior direction, p = 0.001).
We concluded that the MV could be used to identify different vestibular dysfunctions, specifically in old adults.

The subjective visual vertical (SVV) test is a sensitive test of vestibular dysfunction that allows the evaluation of otolithic organs; however, with the current method, there are technical and logistical limitations that make the application of this test difficult in the conventional clinic.
The objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of detecting vestibular pathology using the SVV via a new screening method.
A consecutive sample of 62 patients with suspected vestibular pathology was included in the study. The patients were clinically diagnosed according to the Barany Society criteria. An exploratory system was designed using a mobile application in Android that detects accelerometer oscillations and involves placing the smartphone on a rotating disk anchored to the wall. All patients underwent a SVV examination using the bucket method and the study test. A cut-off point of the ROC curve was calculated for each test, and its sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic accuracy and probability ratios for detecting vestibular pathology were analysed. The SVV results were compared using the bucket test and the study test.
We observed significant differences in sensitivity between the two tests 86.95% for the study test versus 67.4% for the bucket test (p <  0.01). In the ROC curve, an area under the curve of 0.90 was observed for the study test, with a cut-off of 2.43 for a sensitivity of 86.95% and a specificity of 93.75%.
SVV testing using a smartphone placed on a rotating disk anchored to the wall offers greater diagnostic accuracy than SVV using the bucket test. Both methods are inexpensive, harmless and easily accepted by patients.

Migraine is more common in Meniere's disease patients, who have some certain anatomical variations. But there are limited studies focusing on the anatomical variations in patients with Meniere's disease and migraine.
To explore the clinical and anatomical features in Meniere's disease patients with and without migraine, determining whether the coexistence of migraine can be used as a basis for clinical subtyping of Meniere's disease.
Ninety-five Meniere's disease patients and ninety-five healthy subjects matched with age, sex were selected. A detailed questionnaire based on the diagnosis criteria of Meniere's disease and migraine was designed. According to the CT scan, we divided the mastoid cell system of all the subjects into two types well-pneumatization type and poor-pneumatization type. link3 Meanwhile, the shortest distance between the sigmoid sinus and the posterior wall of the external acoustic canal was measured.
Compared with those without migraine, Meniere's disease patients with migraine had a higher female comorbidity, poorer mastoid pneumatization, shorter distance between the sigmoid sinus and posterior wall of the external acoustic canal, longer history, higher frequency of vertigo attacks and better average hearing threshold.
