046). No such difference was found between the ERA group and the control group. However, within the ERA group, seronegative patients had a TMD-pain diagnosis more often than seropositive patients (4/12 (33%) vs 3/38 (8%), p=0.048). Participants with a TMD-pain diagnosis were more often diagnosed with probable sleep bruxism than those without a TMD-pain diagnosis.
The prevalence of TMD pain is increased in individuals at-risk of RA and seronegative ERA patients, and is associated with bruxism signs and symptoms. These results suggest that health professionals should be alert to TMD pain in these groups.

We observed that 13 of 17 patients with COVID-19 had stereotypic variable heavy chain (VH) antibody clonotypes directed against the receptor binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. These antibody clonotypes were composed of immunoglobulin heavy variable 3-53 (IGHV3-53) or IGHV3-66 and immunoglobulin heavy joining 6 (IGHJ6) genes. These clonotypes included IgM, IgG3, IgG1, IgA1, IgG2, and IgA2 subtypes and had minimal somatic mutations, which suggested swift class switching after SARS-CoV-2 infection. The different IGHV chains were paired with diverse light chains resulting in binding to the RBD of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. Human antibodies specific for the RBD can neutralize SARS-CoV-2 by inhibiting entry into host cells. We observed that one of these stereotypic neutralizing antibodies could inhibit viral replication in vitro using a clinical isolate of SARS-CoV-2. We also found that these VH clonotypes existed in 6 of 10 healthy individuals, with IgM isotypes predominating. These findings suggest that stereotypic clonotypes can develop de novo from naïve B cells and not from memory B cells established from prior exposure to similar viruses. The expeditious and stereotypic expansion of these clonotypes may have occurred in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 because they were already present.Recent studies suggest an important role for RNA, especially noncoding RNA, in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colon cancer. Drug development based on regulating RNA rather than protein is a promising new area. Phytochemicals are naturally occurring plant-derived compounds with chemical diversity, biologic activity, easy availability, and low toxicity. Many phytochemicals have been shown to exert protective effects on IBD and colon cancer through modulation of RNAs. The aim of this study was to summarize the advancements of phytochemicals in regulating RNA for the treatment of IBD and colon cancer. This review involves many phytochemicals, including polyphenols, flavones, and alkaloids, which can influence various types of RNAs, including microRNA, long noncoding RNA, as well as messenger RNA, by influencing a variety of upstream molecules or regulating epigenetic processes. The limitation for many current studies is that the specific mechanisms of phytochemicals regulating RNA have not been fully uncovered. Accompanied by more identified functions of RNAs, especially noncoding RNA functions, the screening of RNA-regulating phytochemicals has presented challenges as well as opportunities for the prevention and treatment of IBD and colon cancer. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Noncoding RNAs, which constitute the majority of the human transcriptional genome, play a key role in the disease state and are considered as important therapeutic targets in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colon cancer. Recent studies have shown that phytochemicals regulate the expression of many noncoding RNAs involved in IBD and colon cancer. Therefore, identifying the specific molecular mechanism of phytochemicals regulating noncoding RNA in disease models may result in novel and effective therapeutic opportunities.
Low back pain (LBP) is common in rowers. Understanding rowing biomechanics may help facilitate prevention and improve rehabilitation.
To define the kinematics and muscle activity of rowers and to compare with rowers with current or LBP history.
Systematic review.
EMBASE, MEDLINE, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Web of Science and Scopus from inception to December 2019. Grey literature was searched.
Experimental and non-experimental designs.
Primary outcomes were kinematics and muscle activity. Modified Quality Index (QI) checklist was used.
22 studies were included (429 participants). Modified QI score had a mean of 16.7/28 points (range 15-21). Thirteen studies investigated kinematics and nine investigated muscle activity. Rowers without LBP ('healthy') have distinct kinematics (neutral or anterior pelvic rotation at the catch, greater hip range of motion, flatter low back spinal position at the finish) and muscle activity (trunk extensor dominant with less flexor activity). DiR chemical Rowers with LBP had relatively greater posterior pelvic rotation at the catch, greater hip extension at the finish and less efficient trunk muscle activity. In both groups fatigue results in increased lumbar spine flexion at the catch, which is greater on the ergometer. There is insufficient evidence to recommend one ergometer type (fixed vs dynamic) over the other to avoid LBP. Trunk asymmetries are not associated with LBP in rowers.
Improving clinicians' and coaches' understanding of safe and effective rowing biomechanics, particularly of the spine, pelvis and hips may be an important strategy in reducing incidence and burden of LBP.

Commonly, consumer wearable devices assessing HR are based on photoplethysmography (PPG), where HR is determined by absorption and reflection of emitted light by the blood. However, methodological differences and shortcomings in the validation process hamper the comparability of the validity of various wearable devices assessing HR. Towards Intelligent Health and Well-Being Network of Physical Activity Assessment (INTERLIVE) is a joint European initiative of six universities and one industrial partner. The consortium was founded in 2019 and strives towards developing best-practice recommendations for evaluating the validity of consumer wearables and smartphones. This expert statement presents a best-practice validation protocol for consumer wearables assessing HR by PPG. The recommendations were developed through the following multi-stage process (1) a systematic literature review based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses, (2) an unstructured review of the wider literature pertaining to factors that may introduce bias during the validation of these devices and (3) evidence-informed expert opinions of the INTERLIVE Network.
