Mental health problems are common among tertiary education students, with concerning levels of suicide ideation frequently observed in this population. There is a need for evidence-based mental health education and suicide prevention programs designed to meet the specific needs of these students. The "Talk-to-Me" Mass Open Online Course (MOOC) is a strengths-based mental health education program underpinned by a six-phase model for managing a suicidal crisis.

To evaluate the efficacy of the "Talk-to-Me" MOOC in improving student knowledge of appropriate responses to suicide crisis via a randomised control trial (RCT) comparing tertiary education health science and education students attending the program to a waitlist control group. Overall, 170 will be screened and randomly allocated to either the "Talk-to-Me" MOOC or a waitlist control group, with data collection occurring at three-time points (baseline, 10-weeks and 24-weeks from baseline) over one year. The primary outcome will be participants' knowlede prevention programs for tertiary students. Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ANZCTR) #12619000630112.

Parents are children's primary role models, are food and physical activity gatekeepers, and create the home structure/lifestyle environment. Thus, parents strongly influence children's weight-related behaviors and have the opportunity to cultivate a "culture of health" within the home. Yet, there is a dearth of evidence-based obesity prevention intervention programs, especially for families with children aged 6-11years, commonly called middle childhood.

The aim of the HomeStyles-2 online learning mode RCT is to determine whether this novel, age-appropriate, family intervention enables and motivates parents to shape home environments and weight-related lifestyle practices (i.e.,diet, exercise, sleep) to be more supportive of optimal health and reduced obesity risk in middle childhood youth more than those in the control condition. The RCT will include the experimental group and an attention control group. The participants will be parents with school-age children who are systematically randomly assigned by computer to study condition. The HomeStyles intervention is predicated on the social cognitive theory and a social ecological framework. The RCT will collect sociodemographic characteristics of the participant, child, and partner/spouse; child and parent health status; parent weight-related cognitions; weight-related behaviors of the parent and child; and weight-related characteristics of the home environment. Deliverables Enrollment for this study will begin in 2022.

This paper describes these aspects of the HomeStyles-2 intervention rationale; sample eligibility criteria and recruitment; study design; experimental group intervention theoretical and philosophical underpinnings, structure, content, and development process; attention control intervention; survey instrument development and components; outcome measures; and planned analyses.

The long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) plays a significant shoulder stabilizing role during pitching, with the large forces and repetitions involved in overhead throwing likely contributing to LHBT pathology. Determining whether the LHBT undergoes adaptive changes in baseball pitchers and how these changes relate to bicipital groove morphology can improve our understanding of the biceps function at the glenohumeral joint. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the chronic adaptations of the bicipital groove morphology and the LHBT in professional baseball pitchers, with a secondary purpose of evaluating biceps integrity as it relates to torsional changes of the bicipital groove. We hypothesized that the throwing arm of professional baseball pitchers would exhibit chronic adaptations of the LHBT compared with their nonthrowing arm, and that these adaptations would be related to the bicipital groove morphology.

Fifty-three professional baseball pitchers were enrolled at the beginning of thnicity but was not related to bilateral differences in LHBT area or circularity. Therefore, the bilateral difference in echogenicity is impacted by bony morphology, whereas the bilateral difference in cross-sectional area may be independent of bony morphology in this healthy population.

There are significant bilateral differences in the LHBT of professional baseball pitchers. An adaptation in bony rotation was associated with a larger bilateral difference in LHBT echogenicity but was not related to bilateral differences in LHBT area or circularity. Therefore, the bilateral difference in echogenicity is impacted by bony morphology, whereas the bilateral difference in cross-sectional area may be independent of bony morphology in this healthy population.

The Watson Instability Program (WIP1) is current best evidence for conservative management of atraumatic shoulder instability, but it is unknown if this program can be effectively delivered via tele-consultation. The purpose of this longitudinal pre-post intervention study was to determine the effects of the WIP1 on patient-reported outcome measures, scapular position, shoulder strength, and handstand stability in student circus performers with atraumatic shoulder instability when delivered via tele-consultation.

Student circus performers aged between 15 and 35 years from the National Institute of Circus Arts were recruited. A 12-week shoulder exercise program was delivered via tele-consultation during the Melbourne, Australia COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) lockdown. The primary outcome measures were the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index score and the Melbourne Instability Shoulder Scale score. Secondary outcomes measures included the Orebro Musculoskeletal Pain Questionnaire, the Tampa Scalwith atraumatic shoulder instability, treatment with the WIP1 via telehealth resulted in clinically and statistically significant improvements in shoulder symptoms and function.

The concentration of leukocytes influences the quality of platelet-rich plasma (PRP). However, there is no consensus on which type of PRP based on the concentration of leukocytes is the best for lateral epicondylitis (LE).

We systematically searched the MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases until March 1, 2020. Studies involving randomized controlled trials, patients with LE, and treatment with PRP injections were included. PRP was classified into leukocyte-poor (LP) PRP and leukocyte-rich (LR) PRP. ALK inhibitor LR-PRP was defined as PRP with a white blood cell concentration exceeding that of whole blood (4.0-10.0 per μL

), whereas LP-PRP was defined as PRP with a lower white blood cell concentration than that of whole blood. The efficacy of PRP was assessed using the visual analog scale (VAS) and success rates.

Eleven randomized controlled trials (six involving LP-PRP and five involving LR-PRP) were eligible for inclusion in this review. Eight studies were included in the meta-analysis to evaluate the VAthan those in the control group (odds ratio, 2.85; 95% CI, 1.67-4.85; P<0.01) with substantial heterogeneity (I

=82.9%).

LR-PRP may provide pain relief and successful outcomes for patients with LE compared with alternative local injections. Better results were observed with the use of LR-PRP than with the use of LP-PRP.

Latissimus dorsi (LD) and teres major (TM) tears have become increasingly recognized injuries in professional baseball pitchers. The purpose of this study was to determine whether workload, as measured by the number of days of rest between outings, number of innings pitched, number of batters faced, and being a starting pitcher, is associated with an increased risk of sustaining an LD-TM tear in professional baseball pitchers.

All professional baseball pitchers who sustained an LD-TM tear between 2011 and 2017 were identified using the Major League Baseball Health and Injury Tracking System. A separate player-usage data set was used to determine workload. We then compared workload variables between pitcher-games 2, 6, 12, and >12 weeks prior to a documented LD-TM tear and pitcher-games from a non-LD-TM tear control group. In a paired analysis, we compared the acute workload (2, 6, and 12 weeks) prior to injury and the injured pitchers' non-acute workload >12 weeks prior to injury.

A total of 224 u risk factor for LD-TM tears over a 3-month or longer period.

Having a greater pitcher workload and being a starting pitcher were associated with an increased risk of sustaining LD-TM tears in professional baseball players. The average number of days of rest was only a risk factor for LD-TM tears over a 3-month or longer period.

Radial head replacement is the main line of treating complex unstable elbow injuries. Radial head prostheses are either monopolar or bipolar. The difference between both designs in patients' clinical outcomes and postoperative complications is not yet clear. So, a systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of monopolar vs. bipolar implants.

PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, and Scopus were searched to identify studies comparing monopolar and bipolar implants. Data on clinical outcomes, postoperative complications, revision, and removal rates were extracted.

Nine studies met our inclusion criteria, with a total of 591 patients (365 monopolar and 226 bipolar). Both prostheses achieved similar ranges of motion; Mayo Elbow Performance Score; Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand score; and visual analog scale for pain. Incidence of postoperative complications was also similar between both designs. Revision and removal rates were 24%, 8% and 29%, 14% for monopolar and bipolar implants, respectively, but no statistically significant difference could be detected.

No significant difference was found between monopolar and bipolar radial head prostheses in terms of efficacy and safety. Therefore, high-quality randomized controlled trials are required to determine the superiority of one design over the other.

Much attention has been recently focused on cardiac rehabilitation programs for HFpEF patients and studies have examined the effects of exercise training on this specific population. This systematic review and meta-analysis included studies of adult patients with HFpEF and evaluated the impact of exercise on cardiorespiratory fitness variables measured during CPET. The primary outcome was the difference between groups in the change of peak oxygen uptake (Δpeak VO2). Literature search involved PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane/CENTRAL and Scopus databases. From an initial 5,143 literature records, we identified 18 studies fulfilling inclusion criteria; 11 studies with 515 patients were finally included in primary outcome analysis. Δpeak VO2 between baseline and study-end was significantly higher in the groups of exercise training versus control (WMD 2.25 ml/kg/min, 95%CI 1.81-2.70). Exercise training resulted in greater change in the 6MWT distance (WMD 2.
