The coexistence of sarcopenia and obesity characterizes sarcopenic obesity. In this condition, there is an imbalance between lean and fat mass amounts. It is a prevalent issue that is gaining prevalence among the elderly population. To evaluate the condition, allied health professionals may employ non-invasive diagnostic techniques, such as gait speed, skeletal muscle mass, and muscle strength. Nevertheless, early diagnosis and treatment of pathology are essential for preventing debilitating effects and providing the highest quality of care. This article reviews the prevalence of sarcopenic obesity in numerous medical conditions, such as cancer, arthritis, postoperative cases, diabetes mellitus, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. In addition, this paper aims to examine the available evidence regarding the prevalence of sarcopenic obesity in other conditions along with their diagnostic markers and therapeutic approaches.
Background of the Study: - A Musculoskeletal disorder is type of disorders based on pain & discomfort related to soft tissue. Health care professionals have high risk to develop MSDs from patient handling. This study investigates of knee related problem, MSDs, and ergonomics in health care professionals. Aim: - To identify the prevalence of knee ergonomics musculoskeletal complains in health care professionals. Methodology: - An electronic search was conducted; roughly 200 distributions were at first separated after that 29 articles were utilized. Other articles excluded because those were not correlated with study. Result: - Evidence suggested that knee ergonomics were more common in doctors, physiotherapist and nurses. Female health care worker were more prone because of age, job experience, and work environment. The occurrence of MSDs as well as their contributing factors was biomechanically awkward posture, repetitive bending, prolong standing without interval and heavy lifting. Conclusion:- Many of the healthcare workers affected by MSDs and most of the nurses, physiotherapist, and surgeon experience knee symptoms in their working carrier due to high level of physical , social, as well as psychological demand. Most of them change their profession due to high physical demand.
The presence of sarcopenia and obesity is a feature of sarcopenic obesity (SO). In this condition, the fat-to-lean body mass ratio is incorrect. Excess visceral fat, the percentage of body fat, subcutaneous fat, and body mass index causes poor health and premature death and has been linked to conditions such as type 2 diabetes, ischemic heart disease, high blood pressure, and several types of cancer. In addition, control, autonomy, self-actualization, and enjoyment are all components of quality of life; factors that reduce these aspects are likely to reduce the quality of life in older adults. This reviews paper aims to examine the available evidence regarding the prevalence of quality of life in other conditions, which helps medical professionals and physical therapists by providing cornices knowledge and suggesting the best way to treat and new invasives methods
Introduction: Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) refers to complications related to bone, muscle, tendon, and nerve. According to WHO MSDs refers to complication related to bone, muscle, tendon, cartilage, and the nerve gets affected. Healthcare professionals are more prone to have MSDs. This study is done to find the neck pain, ergonomic, and MSDs in healthcare professionals. Methodology: An online search was done on the basics of neck pain, musculoskeletal disorder, and ergonomic factors. Articles included in this study belonged to health care professionals only. Result: This study reported that dentists, nurses, physiotherapy, surgeon, was at the highest risk of having neck ergonomic complaints. The factors that was responsible for having awkward movement, non-ergonomic environment, repeated body stress, patient handling. Conclusion: Healthcare workers are exposed to have MSDs. WRMSDs silently develop, due to ergonomic, physical, psychosocial factors. Physiotherapists, nurses, dentists, surgeons were affected by MSDs. Positioning, change in work style, decrease work pressure, educating ergonomics and intermittent exercise, stretching, stabilizing, ergonomic principal, knowledge improvement, awareness, training, modified work environment, postural training, regular exercise, alter work tools, change in work technique and change in unhealthy habit are some evident to prevent from health hazards.
Introduction: - COVID-19 is the most significant viral disease spread by a coronavirus, is developing very fast all over the world, and it is becoming a world threat. Crisis e.g. pandemic situation harms the education process, and academic function. To destroy the barriers that covid-19 creates, the government decided to start classes on an online platform. Then in 2020, all universities and colleges will provide education through an online platform. This study aims to detect how medical students get classes, and what type of problems they face during online learning. Method: - The online questionnaire was developed with closed-ended questions. Email and social media were used to conduct a cross-sectional survey. Through a Google form, 512 answers were obtained from various medical colleges. Results: - Out of 512 responses 249 (48.6%) were male and 263 (51.4%) were female. The majority of the students who answered, 345 (67.6%), were taking online classes. Smartphones were used by the majority of the classes 321 (63.1%). The most of students (268 (52.7%) said the online classes were ineffective, 173 (34%), said they were as usual, and only 68 (13.4%) said they were effective.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
