Marine Collagen Peptides: A Novel Therapeutic Avenue for Musculoskeletal Disorders | Chapter 7 | Research Perspective on Biological Science Vol. 10

 

Musculoskeletal diseases such as osteoarthritis, osteoporosis and sarcopenia lead to an increasing global health burden. Marine collagen peptides (MCPs) are the most promising candidate for nutritional intervention and have significant advantages compared to their terrestrial counterparts in terms of bioavailability, immunogenicity, and sustainable exploitation using fish by-products. This chapter provides an overview of published scientific evidence on the efficacy and modes of action of M CPs for musculoskeletal health. Based on preclinical studies, done mostly in animal and in vitro models, marine collagen can prevent the progression of osteoarthritis, increase bone mineral density, and promote differentiation of osteoblasts. The underlying mechanisms were related to the suppression of pro-inflammatory and catabolic factors, such as matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13, interleukin-6 (IL-6) and promotion of anabolic genes, collagen type II alpha 1 chain (COL2A1). Nevertheless, the clinical evidence is limited, and there is an urgent requirement for more large RCTs (randomised controlled trials) of long-term to confirm these preclinical findings for the human population. In addition, there are substantial voids related to dose-response effects, comparative effectiveness across marine sources, and sequence-specific bioactive peptide sequences. Standardisation of product quality, purity and contaminant screening is a key obstacle within the field to clinical translation and public confidence. This chapter includes a review of the literature, identifies key gaps in research, and provides recommendations to advance the science to fully realise the therapeutic potential of marine collagen peptides for musculoskeletal health.

Work Related Musculoskeletal Disorders in School Teachers: A Review| Chapter 1 | Current Overview on Disease and Health Research Vol. 4

 Foundation: Musculoskeletal problems (MSD) have become exceptionally normal condition. Educating is a calling which isn't extra from MSDs. Dreary development, off-kilter stances, and high power levels are the three essential gamble factors that have been related with MSDs alongside age, orientation, terrible stance and upset mental levels, inappropriate and deficient foundation. The point of this review is to introduce a rundown survey of the present status of information about outer muscle problems in teachers.

Philosophy: The written works were looked through utilizing different web indexes and data sets. Web crawlers were utilized are Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Direct and Databases are COCHRANE, CINHAL, MEDLINE, PEDRO and so forth. The Source of the information has been electronic sources (Databases, Electronic libraries, Electronic Journals, Google Scholar) and print sources (Journals, Textbooks, Hand looking, Follow-up reference).

Results: Articles were organized uncovering their title, writer, year, concentrate on plan.

End: Age, orientation, length of work term, corpulence, psychological well-being and lacking framework all has a significant impact in MSDs. Female instructors are more inclined for creating MSDs. Continuous breaks between meetings, normal actual activities, appropriate footwear, paying attention to claims body are the significant answers for WRMSDs in the teachers.

A Brief Review on Work Related Musculoskeletal Disorders in Brick Kiln Workers | Chapter 1 | Issues and Development in Health Research Vol. 7

 Musculoskeletal diseases (MSDs) have become a relatively frequent ailment. Brick kiln employees are not immune to the effects of MSDs. Workers in these industries are unaware of ergonomics and health issues, which exacerbate existing MSDs. The goal of this study is to give a summary evaluation of existing knowledge concerning musculoskeletal diseases in brick kiln workers by exploring the literature using health care databases and assessing it using critical appraisal tools.

The literature was combed via using a variety of search engines and databases. Google Scholar, Pub Med, and Science Direct were utilised as search engines, and databases such as COCHRANE, CINHAL, MEDLINE, and PEDRO were used as databases. Electronic (databases, electronic libraries, electronic journals, Google Scholar) and print sources were used to collect the information (Journals, Textbooks, Hand searching, Follow-up reference).

The title, author, year, and study design of each article were tabulated. The database search resulted in the discovery of 150 publications and reports. The titles and abstracts of these papers were screened. Full text screening was performed on 57 papers, with 13 articles being eliminated because they did not offer information on the prevalence of musculoskeletal problems among brick kiln workers. As a result, the review comprised a total of 44 papers.

 

Conclusion: Brick-making is a multitasking activity in which different people are involved in different processes. Not to mention that all of the brick-making manufacturing procedures take time and are certain to happen. Furthermore, workers in such businesses are illiterate, with little to no awareness of ergonomics or health issues, which adds to the already existent MSDs. To avoid or lessen the risk of developing WMSDs in brick kiln employees, they must use correct equipment such as wheel barrows, trolleys, and frequent breaks, as well as get proper ergonomic training and health education.
