Abstract
Joint immobilization, which ensures rest and accelerates tissue recovery in musculoskeletal disorders, often causes joint contracture, for which there is still no effective prevention. To address this, we investigated the effects of extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) in preventing joint contracture, in a unilaterally immobilized knee rat model. Under general anesthesia, ESWT (0.25 mJ/mm2 , 3000 shot, 4 Hz, 3 days/week) was administered from 1 day after immobilization up to 2, 4, and 6 weeks. The immobilized control group received general anesthesia without ESWT. We evaluated joint angle, tissue elasticity, and gene and protein expression related to fibrosis, inflammation, and angiogenesis in the joint capsule. Relative to the control, the ESWT group had greater joint angle at 4 and 6 weeks, and lower posterior-capsule elasticity at 6 weeks. In the ESWT group, at 6 weeks, gene expression of collagen type I (col1α1), connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) was significantly downregulated, whereas interleukin-6 (IL-6) and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) gene expression was upregulated, relative to that in the control. Compared with that in the control, at 4 and 6 weeks, the ratio of CTGF+ cells was significantly lower in the ESWT group; at 4 weeks, the ESWT group had significantly fewer CD68+ cells in the adhesion area, and at 6 weeks, significantly more blood vessels. Statement of Clinical Significance: In a rat model, ESWT counteracted fibrosis, suppressed macrophage infiltration, and promoted neovascularization, reducing elasticity, and increasing joint range-ofmotion. ESWT offers a potential new strategy to prevent progression in joint contracture.

Abstract
Medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO) is usually performed with proximal tuberosity osteotomy or setting the osteotomy line proximal to the tuberosity. However, OWHTO can result in patellofemoral complications due to postoperative patella infera. A new OWHTO technique, biplanar osteotomy with a distal tuberosity osteotomy, was reported in 2004 to prevent postoperative patella infera. To ensure that the 2 osteotomy lines maintain perpendicular, we describe the OWHTO procedure with a distal tuberosity osteotomy technique using a TriS Medial HTO Plate System (Olympus Terumo Biomaterials Corp., Tokyo, Japan) and a right angle guide we developed. In this Technical Note, we describe the procedure and advantages, risks, and limitations, as well as the pearls and pitfalls based on our experience.

Abstract
Background Joint hemorrhage is caused by trauma, ligament reconstruction surgery, and bleeding disorders such as hemophilia. Recurrence of hemorrhage in the joint space induces hemosiderotic synovitis and oxidative stress, resulting in both articular cartilage degeneration and arthropathy. Joint immobilization is a common treatment option for articular fractures accompanied by joint hemorrhage. Although joint hemorrhage has negative effects on the articular cartilage, there is no consensus on whether a reduction in joint hemorrhage would effectively prevent articular cartilage degeneration. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of joint hemorrhage combined with joint immobilization on articular cartilage degeneration in a rat immobilized knee model. Methods The knee joints of adult male rats were immobilized at the flexion using an internal fixator from 3 days to 8 weeks. The rats were randomly divided into the following groups: immobilized blood injection (Im-B) and immobilized-normal saline injection (Im-NS) groups. The cartilage was evaluated in two areas (contact and non-contact areas). The cartilage was used to assess chondrocyte count, Modified Mankin score, and cartilage thickness. The total RNA was extracted from the cartilage in both areas, and the expression of metalloproteinase (MMP)-8, MMP-13, interleukin (IL)-1β, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α was measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Results The number of chondrocytes in the Im-B group significantly decreased in both areas, compared with that in the Im-NS group. Modified Mankin score from 4 to 8 weeks of the Im-B group was significantly higher than that of the Im-NS group only in the contact area. The expression of MMP-8 and MMP-13 from 2 to 4 weeks and TNF-α from 2 to 8 weeks significantly increased in the Im-B group compared with those in the Im-NS group, but there was no significant difference in IL-1β expression. Conclusions The results showed that joint hemorrhage exacerbated immobilization-induced articular cartilage degeneration. Drainage of a joint hemorrhage or avoidance of loading may help prevent cartilage degeneration during joint immobilization with a hemorrhage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The etiology of frozen shoulder (FS) remains uncertain. Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) cause the cross-linking and stabilization of collagen and are increased in FS. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the pathogenesis of FS by evaluating the receptor of AGE (RAGE)-dependent pathways. METHODS Tissue samples of the coracohumeral ligament (CHL) and anterior inferior glenohumeral ligament (IGHL) were collected from 33 patients with FS, with severe stiffness, and 25 with rotator cuff tears (RCTs) as controls. Gene expression levels of RAGE, high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), TLR4, nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kB), and cytokines were evaluated using a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. The immunoreactivities of carboxymethyllysine (CML), pentosidine, and RAGE were also evaluated. CML and pentosidine were further evaluated using high-performance liquid chromatography. RESULTS Gene expression levels of RAGE, HMGB1, TLR2, TLR4, and NF-kB were significantly greater in the CHLs and IGHLs from the FS group than in those from the RCT group. Immunoreactivities of RAGE and CML were stronger in the CHLs and IGHLs from the FS group than in those from the RCT group. Pentosidine was weakly immunostained in the CHLs and IGHLs from the FS group. CML using high-performance liquid chromatography was significantly greater in the CHLs and IGHLs from the FS group than in those from the RCT group. CONCLUSIONS AGEs and HMGB1 might play important roles in the pathogenesis of FS by binding to RAGE and activating NF-kB signaling pathways. Suppression of these pathways could be a treatment option for FS.

Abstract
Background Low back pain (LBP) is a common problem among young basketball players in addition to lower extremity injuries. However, studies that focus on LBP with lower extremity pain are limited. From the perspective of the kinematic chain, disrupted lower extremity function can lead to LBP. The association between these two symptoms in basketball players, however, has not been reported. Therefore, this study aimed to clarify the association between lower extremity pain and LBP among young basketball players. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted on school-aged basketball players (n = 592). Information regarding their sporting activities was collected using a self-reported questionnaire. Musculoskeletal pain such as low back, knee, and ankle pain was assessed. The sports players with knee and/or ankle pain were defined as having lower extremity pain. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to assess the association between lower extremity pain and LBP. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated. The associations of knee or ankle pain with LBP were similarly assessed. Results School-aged basketball players had a point prevalence of 12.8% for LBP. Compared with the players without lower extremity pain, the players with lower extremity pain had higher rates of LBP, with an adjusted OR (95% CI) of 6.21 (3.57-10.80). There was also a significant association of knee and ankle pain with LBP. Compared with the players without knee or ankle pain, the adjusted ORs (95% CI) for LBP were 4.25 (2.55-7.07) in the players with knee pain and 3.79 (2.26-6.36) in the players with ankle pain. Conclusions Lower extremity pain was associated with LBP among school-aged basketball players. Further research is needed to clarify the mechanism of this association, which will provide useful information for prevention and treatment of LBP among young basketball players.

Abstract
Muscle pain is a common condition in many diseases and is induced by muscle
overuse. Muscle overuse induces an increase in uric acid, which stimulates the
nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor (NLR). This receptor
contains the pyrin domain NLRP-3 inflammasome which when activated, results in
the secretion of potent pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1β
(IL-1β). The aim of this study was to investigate the involvement of
inflammasome activation via the elevation of uric acid level in nociception in a
mouse model of muscle pain. The right hind leg muscles of BALB/c mice were
stimulated electrically to induce excessive muscle contraction. The left hind
leg muscles were not stimulated as a control. Mechanical withdrawal thresholds,
levels of uric acid, IL-1β, and NLRP3, caspase-1 activity, and the number of
macrophages were investigated. Furthermore, the effects of xanthine oxidase
inhibitors, such as Brilliant Blue G, caspase-1 inhibitor, and clodronate
liposome, on pain were investigated. In the stimulated muscles, mechanical
withdrawal thresholds decreased, and the levels of uric acid, NLRP3, and IL-1β,
caspase-1 activity, and the number of macrophages increased compared to that in
the non-stimulated muscles. Administration of the inhibitors attenuated
hyperalgesia caused by excessive muscle contraction. These results suggested
that IL-1β secretion and NLRP3 inflammasome activation in macrophages produced
mechanical hyperalgesia by elevating uric acid level, and xanthine oxidase
inhibitors may potentially reduce over-exercised muscle pain.

Abstract
Verbal or physical abuse from coaches has negative effects on young athletes, and the parents of athletes also have an influence on the sports environment. It is therefore important to understand parents' attitudes towards abuse against their children from the coaches. This study aimed to elucidate the characteristics of parents who accept the infliction of verbal or physical abuse on their children from coaches of youth sports teams. A cross-sectional study using self-report questionnaires was conducted with parents of young athletes (n = 6,493). Multivariate logistic regression models were used to assess the factors associated with parents' acceptability of verbal or physical abuse against their children. The proportion of parents who were accepting of verbal or physical abuse was 21.5%. Acceptability of verbal or physical abuse was significantly associated with male (odds ratio: 1.67, 95% confidence interval: 1.43-1.95), younger age (1.24, 1.09-1.41), lower educational attainment (1.32, 1.17-1.50), smoking habits (1.42, 1.23-1.63), experience of playing on a team with high levels of competition during their junior or high school days (1.31, 1.15-1.50), and experience of verbal and physical abuse by their own former coaches (3.59, 3.03-4.26 and 1.17, 1.02-1.35). About 58% and 28% of parents had experienced verbal and physical abuse from their own former coaches, and parents who had experienced verbal abuse themselves were most likely to be accepting of verbal or physical abuse towards their children. Educating parents is considered to be important for preventing and eradicating abuse against young athletes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lower back pain (LBP), as well as lower extremity injuries, are major problems among young volleyball players. Nevertheless, only few studies have focused on the relationship between lower extremity injuries and LBP. OBJECTIVE This study investigated the association between LBP and lower extremity pain, including knee and ankle pain, among young volleyball players. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Amateur sports association. PARTICIPANTS Elementary and middle school-aged athletes (6-15 years of age). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES LBP and lower extremity pain. RESULTS A total of 566 young volleyball players participated in this study. The point prevalence of LBP among young volleyball players was 9.5%. Using absence of lower extremity pain as a reference, the adjusted odds ratio (95% confidence interval) for LBP was 11.07 (5.64-21.71) in the presence of lower extremity pain. CONCLUSIONS LBP is associated with Lower extremity pain among young volleyball players. Careful attention should be paid to lower extremity complaints to prevent and treat LBP among young volleyball players.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence is scarce concerning the relationship of physical dysfunction of the trunk and lower extremities with elbow and shoulder pain in young baseball players. This study aimed to examine the association of joint flexibility of the trunk and lower extremities and dynamic postural control with elbow and shoulder pain among elite young baseball players. METHODS We analyzed baseball players (aged 9-12 years) who participated in the National Junior Sports Clubs Baseball Festival. Range of motion in external rotation and internal rotation (IR) of the hip, as well as the finger-to-floor distance and heel-to-buttock distance, was measured. The straight-leg-raise test was also conducted. Dynamic postural control was evaluated using the Star Excursion Balance Test. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine the association of physical function with the elbow or shoulder pain incidence. RESULTS Of 210 players surveyed, 177 without elbow or shoulder pain were included in the analysis. Of the participants, 16 (9.0%) reported having elbow or shoulder pain during the tournament. Participants with the incidence of elbow or shoulder pain had a significant restriction in hip IR of the stride leg compared with those without pain (35.8° vs. 43.7°, P = .022). There were no significant associations of other joint flexibilities and the Star Excursion Balance Test with elbow or shoulder pain. CONCLUSION Decreased hip IR range of motion of the stride leg was significantly associated with the elbow or shoulder pain incidence. Players, coaches, and clinicians should consider the physical function of the trunk and lower extremities for the prevention of elbow and shoulder pain.

Abstract
Verbal and physical abuse from coaches has negative effects on young athletes. Although the abuse can lead to the athletes' dropping out, no studies have reported on this topic. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the association between experience of verbal or physical abuse from coaches and loss of motivation for the present sport in young athletes. School-aged athletes (age range, 6-15 years, n = 6,791) were assessed using a self-reported questionnaire. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to assess the association between experience of verbal or physical abuse and loss of motivation for the present sport. Variables considered in the models were sex, age, body mass index, presence of bodily pain, team levels, number of training days per week, number of training hours per day on weekdays and weekends, and frequency of participation in games. The prevalence of loss of motivation for the present sport was 8.1%. Experience of verbal or physical abuse was significantly associated with loss of motivation for the present sport and the adjusted odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) were 1.93 (1.54-2.42, p < 0.001) for verbal abuse and 1.76 (1.27-2.42, p = 0.001) for physical abuse. Findings of this study suggest that experience of verbal or physical abuse from coaches is associated with loss of motivation for the present sport. Eradication of verbal and physical abuse from coaches is important for young athletes to continue sport participation.

Abstract
We orthopaedic surgeons are not familiar with the popliteus bursa. It is defined as the expansion in the synovial membrane of the posterolateral part of the knee that lies between the lateral meniscus and the tendon of the popliteus muscle. The popliteus bursa extends approximately 1 cm distal to the joint line and has 4 borders; the medial border is the peripheral margin of the lateral meniscus, the lateral border is the popliteus tendon, and the superior and inferior borders are formed by 2 fascicles. We very rarely observe cystic lesions that expand more distally, such as pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) and synovial osteochondromatosis. We consider the distally expanded bursa as the pathologic expansion of the popliteus bursa. When this expansion is involved with PVNS, it may be the cause of recurrence of PVNS in the knee joint. Synovial osteochondromatosis in this expansion may cause pain in the posterolateral corner of the knee and may become a source of free bodies in the knee joint. In such conditions, these lesions should be surgically excised. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe a surgical approach to the pathologic expansion of the popliteus bursa.

Abstract
Background Functional disability is a significant problem after natural disasters. Musculoskeletal pain is reported to increase after disasters, which can cause functional disability among survivors. However, the effects of musculoskeletal pain on functional decline after natural disasters are unclear. The present study aimed to examine the association between musculoskeletal pain and new-onset poor physical function among elderly survivors after the Great East Japan Earthquake. Methods A longitudinal study was conducted on survivors aged ≥65 years at three and 4 years after the Great East Japan Earthquake. A total of 747 persons were included in this study. Physical function was assessed using the Kihon Checklist. New-onset poor physical function was defined as low physical function not present at 3 years but present at 4 years after the disaster. Knee, hand or foot, low back, shoulder, and neck pain was assessed using a self-reported questionnaire and was defined as musculoskeletal pain. Musculoskeletal pain at 3 years after the disaster was categorized according to the number of pain regions (0, 1, ≥ 2). Multiple logistic regression analyses were performed to calculate the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) for new-onset poor physical function due to musculoskeletal pain. Results The incidence of new-onset poor physical function was 14.9%. New-onset poor physical function was significantly associated with musculoskeletal pain. Compared with “0” musculoskeletal pain region, the adjusted ORs (95% CI) were 1.39 (0.75–2.58) and 2.69 (1.52–4.77) in “1” and “≥ 2” musculoskeletal pain regions, respectively (p for trend = 0.003). Conclusions Musculoskeletal pain is associated with new-onset poor physical function among elderly survivors after the Great East Japan Earthquake. Monitoring musculoskeletal pain is important to prevent physical function decline after natural disasters.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Prolonged periods of living in prefabricated houses (PHs) may increase the risk of musculoskeletal (MSK) symptoms; however, the association is not clear. This study aimed to investigate the association between continued residence in PHs and MSK pain in a population affected by a natural disaster, the Great East Japan Earthquake (GEJE) survivors. DESIGN, SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS A panel study was conducted including 1059 and 792 survivors at 2 and 4 years, respectively, after the GEJE, using a self-reported questionnaire. Those with no response on living status and those who did not live in a PH were excluded. Participants were classified into two groups by living status: continued residence in a PH (lived in a PH during both periods) or moving out of a PH (lived in a PH in the first period and did not live in a PH in the second). PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURE MSK pain included lower back, shoulder, knee, hand or foot, and neck pain. Changes in the occurrence of MSK pain during the two periods were assessed and defined as 'new-onset' and 'continuing' MSK pain. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to examine the influence of continued residence in a PH on new-onset and continuing MSK pain. RESULTS Continued residence in a PH was significantly associated with new-onset MSK pain, even after adjustment for covariates (adjusted OR 2.18, 95% CI 1.25 to 3.79, p=0.006). Participants who continued living in a PH had higher rates of continuing MSK pain than those who moved out; however, the difference was not significant (adjusted OR 1.69, 95% CI 0.94 to 3.05, p=0.079). CONCLUSION Continued residence in a PH was associated with new-onset MSK pain among survivors. Public support should be provided to such people to ensure a more comfortable life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Because the relationship between coaches and athletes is unequal, verbal and physical abuse remains a common problem among sports coaches. We aimed to elucidate the characteristics of baseball coaches who verbally/physically abuse young baseball players. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted on youth sports team coaches in Miyagi prefecture, Japan (n = 380), using a self-reported questionnaire. Multivariate logistic regression models were used for the analyses, evaluating the following variables: sex, age, educational level, smoking habits, years of coaching, level of baseball-playing experience, personal experience with verbal/physical abuse by former coaches, satisfaction with athletes' attitudes, number of athletes on the team, team competition level, awareness of the recommendations of the Japanese Society of Clinical Sports Medicine, limitations in the total pitch count, difficulty in coaching in other positions, number of games per year, and acceptance of former verbal/physical abuse. RESULTS The prevalence of verbal/physical abuse toward young athletes was 74.5% (n = 283) and 6.6% (n = 25), respectively. Verbal abuse was significantly associated with personal experience of verbal abuse by former coaches (odds ratio [OR]: 2.00, 95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 1.04-3.85), and acceptance of verbal/physical abuse (OR: 2.61, 95% CI: 1.34-5.10). Physical abuse was significantly associated with greater than 10 years of coaching experience (OR: 7.16, 95% CI: 1.36-37.78), personal experience with physical abuse by former coaches (OR: 4.25, 95% CI: 1.23-14.70), and acceptance of verbal/physical abuse (OR: 3.85, 95% CI: 1.51-9.84). CONCLUSIONS Coaches' experiences with verbal/physical abuse by former coaches negatively affected young athletes. Breaking this cycle is necessary to keep athletes active and interested in playing baseball. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The etiology of frozen shoulder (FS) is unclear. Accordingly, this study used a label-free quantitative shotgun proteomic approach to elucidate the pathogenesis of FS based on protein expression levels. METHODS Tissue samples from the rotator interval (RI), middle glenohumeral ligament (MGHL), and anterior-inferior glenohumeral ligament (IGHL) were collected from 12 FSs with severe stiffness and 7 shoulders with a rotator cuff tear (RCT) as controls. Protein mixtures were digested and analyzed by nano-liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry. Relative protein expression levels were calculated by the signal intensity of identified peptide ions on mass spectra. Differentially expressed proteins between FS and RCT samples were evaluated by a gene enrichment analysis using Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes. RESULTS We identified 1594 proteins, 1358 of which were expressed in all 6 tissue groups. We detected more upregulated proteins in the upper (RI and MGHL) FS groups and the lower (IGHL) RCT group than in the comparative groups, respectively. Various proteins with functions in tissue repair, collagen metabolism and fibrillation, cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesion, blood coagulation, and the immune response were expressed more highly in the RI and MGHL FS groups than in the RCT group. Proteins with functions in phagocytosis, glutathione metabolism, retinoid metabolism, and cholesterol metabolism were expressed more highly in the IGHL RCT group than in the FS group. CONCLUSIONS The pathophysiology of FS differs between the upper and lower parts of the joint capsule. Different treatment strategies for FS may be appropriate, depending on the location.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies have suggested that musculoskeletal symptoms increase after natural disasters. The Great East Japan Earthquake (GEJE) and accompanying tsunami placed a huge financial burden on the local population. This study determined whether subjective economic hardship influenced the new onset of neck pain (katakori) in the chronic phase after the GEJE. METHODS This study used longitudinal data from 1359 adults who had responded to the self-report questionnaire at 2 and 3 years after the GEJE. New-onset neck pain was defined as neck pain absent at 2 years and present at 3 years. Subjective economic hardship at 2 years after the GEJE was categorized into 4 groups: "normal," "a little bit hard," "hard," and "very hard." Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) in order to examine the association between subjective economic hardship and new-onset neck pain. RESULTS Among the participants, 12.9% (n = 175) reported new-onset neck pain. A significantly higher rate of new-onset neck pain was observed in participants who considered their subjective economic hardship to be "hard" (OR = 2.10, 95% CI = 1.34-3.30) or "very hard" (OR = 3.26, 95% CI = 1.83-5.46; p for trend <0.001) compared with those who considered their hardship to be "normal." CONCLUSIONS Subjective economic hardship was significantly associated with new-onset neck pain in the chronic phase of the GEJE. (228/300).

Abstract
Sleep disturbance is a common symptom after natural disasters. Although musculoskeletal pain also increases after natural disasters, its relation to sleep disturbance is not clear. The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of musculoskeletal pain on new-onset sleep disturbance among survivors after the Great East Japan Earthquake (GEJE). A prospective cohort study was conducted with the survivors of the GEJE at two and three years after the earthquake. New-onset sleep disturbance was defined as sleep disturbance absent at two years and present at three years after the earthquake. The sites of musculoskeletal pain included low back, shoulder, knee, and hand or foot. The number of musculoskeletal pain sites at two years after the earthquake was divided into three categories (0, 1, and 2 or more). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to calculate the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) for new-onset sleep disturbance according to the number of musculoskeletal pain sites. A total of 1,102 survivors were included in this study and 14.6% of the participants reported new-onset sleep disturbance. Using "0" as a reference, the adjusted ORs (95% CI) for new-onset sleep disturbance were 2.43 (1.55-3.80) in "1" and 2.96 (1.88-4.64) in "2 or more", respectively (P for trends < 0.001). In conclusion, this is the first study showing higher incidence of sleep disturbance among survivors with musculoskeletal pain after the GEJE. Care for musculoskeletal pain is important to prevent sleep disturbance after natural disasters.

Abstract
Elbow or shoulder injuries are common in overhead sports. Because energy derived from the lower extremity passes through the trunk to the upper extremity in overhead motion, a break in such a kinetic chain could lead to arm injuries. However, there is only limited information about the role of the trunk and lower extremity support in preventing elbow or shoulder injuries. This study aimed to explore the association of trunk and lower extremity pain with elbow/shoulder pain among young overhead athletes. We conducted a cross-sectional study using self-reported questionnaires mailed to young athletes belonging to the Miyagi Amateur Sports Association. The final study population comprised 2,215 young athletes playing baseball (n = 1,422), volleyball (n = 546), softball (n = 14), handball (n = 28), tennis (n = 110), or badminton (n = 95). The median age of the participants was 11 years (range: 6 to 15 years). Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed the higher prevalence of elbow and/or shoulder pain in athletes with back pain (OR = 5.52, 95% CI = 3.51-8.69), hip pain (OR = 6.13, 95% CI = 3.35-11.22), knee pain (OR = 2.28, 95% CI = 1.48-3.51), and foot pain (OR = 3.03, 95% CI = 1.95-4.72), compared with those without pain. We propose that trunk or lower extremity pain is significantly associated with elbow or shoulder pain among young overhead athletes. Assessing for pain in trunk or lower extremity, as well as elbow and/or shoulder pain, may help prevent serious injuries in young overhead athletes.

Abstract
Background Soccer is a high-intensity sport with a high injury rate. Among youth soccer players, lower extremity pain is a major problem that could be associated with trunk function. This study investigated the association between lower extremity pain and trunk pain among youth soccer players. Methods A cross-sectional study involving youth soccer players participating in the Miyagi Amateur Sports Association was conducted using a self-reported questionnaire. A multiple logistic regression analysis was used to examine the association between trunk pain and lower extremity pain. Covariates were sex, age, body mass index, height increase, number of days of training per week, practice time per day on weekdays or weekends, competition levels, frequency of participation in games, and previous injuries. Results The final study population comprised 1139 youth soccer players (age, 6-15 years; male, 94.2%). Lower extremity pain with concomitant trunk pain occurred in 61.8% (42/68). Trunk pain was significantly associated with lower extremity pain (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 6.82; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.99-11.67). Back pain and hip pain were significantly associated with knee pain (adjusted OR [95% CI]: 7.63 [3.70-15.76] and 3.84 [1.89-7.83], respectively), ankle pain (adjusted OR [95% CI]: 9.03 [4.42-18.44] and 5.43 [2.77-10.62], respectively), and both knee and ankle pain (adjusted OR [95% CI]: 13.67 [6.01-31.09] and 5.98 [2.56-13.97], respectively). Conclusions Trunk pain was associated with lower extremity pain among youth soccer players. Clinicians and coaches should consider comorbidities while treating those players.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) in preventing joint stiffness. Unilateral knee joints were immobilized in two groups of rats (n = 6/period/group). Under general anesthesia, the immobilized knee joints were exposed to LIPUS for 20 min/d, 5 d/wk, using an existing LIPUS device (LIPUS group, 1.5-MHz frequency, 1.0-kHz repetition cycle, 200-µs burst width and 30-mW/cm2 power output) until endpoints (2, 4 or 6 wk). In the control group, general anesthesia alone was administered in the same manner as in the other group. The variables compared between the groups included joint angles; histologic, histomorphometric and immunohistochemical analyses; quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reactions; and tissue elasticity. LIPUS had a preventive effect on joint stiffness, resulting in decreased adhesion, fibrosis and inflammation and hypoxic response after joint immobilization.

Abstract
Verbal or physical abuse from coaches has a negative impact on young athletes. To prevent abuse against young athletes, it is important to know the characteristics of abusive coaches. This study aimed to elucidate the characteristics of coaches who commit verbal or physical abuse in youth sports teams. A cross-sectional study was conducted with coaches of youth sport teams in Miyagi prefecture, Japan (n = 1,283), using a self-reported questionnaire (response rate was 24.0%). Multivariate logistic regression models were used for analyses. The prevalence of verbal and physical abuse towards young athletes was 64.7% (n = 830) and 6.2% (n = 79), respectively. Verbal abuse was significantly associated with lower educational attainment (odds ratio (OR): 1.32, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 1.03-1.69), experiences of verbal abuse by own coaches (OR: 1.85, 95% CI: 1.37-2.50), acceptability for verbal or physical abuse (OR: 2.53, 95% CI: 1.82-3.52), and dissatisfaction with athletes' attitude (OR: 1.62, 95% CI: 1.26-2.07). Physical abuse was significantly associated with experiences of physical abuse by respondents' coaches (OR: 2.71, 95% CI: 1.50-4.92), acceptability for verbal or physical abuse (OR: 3.89, 95% CI: 2.39-6.33), and longer experience of coaching in years (OR: 2.45, 95% CI: 1.20-4.98). The results of this study show that coaches who commit verbal or physical abuse had typically experienced abuse from their former coaches, and adopted a similar style. Breaking the negative cycle of verbal and physical abuse is necessary to eliminate the abuse of young athletes.

This study aimed to determine whether sociopsychological factors, such as sleep disturbance and psychological distress, influenced new-onset subjective knee pain in survivors during the post-disaster phase of the GEJE. METHODS From November 2012 to February 2013 (2 years after the GEJE) and from November 2013 to February 2014 (3 years after the GEJE), survivors (≥18 years) completed self-reported questionnaires. A total of 1470 survivors responded to the questionnaires and were included in this study. New-onset subjective knee pain was defined as knee pain by encircled response absent at 2 years but present at 3 years after the GEJE. Two years after the GEJE, ≥10/24 points on the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale, and ≥6/24 points on the Athens Insomnia Scale defined the presence of psychological distress and sleep disturbance, respectively. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of the association between new-onset subjective knee pain and psychological distress or sleep disturbance. RESULTS Among the participants, 10.9% (160/1470) reported experiencing new-onset subjective knee pain. Sleep disturbance was significantly associated with new-onset subjective knee pain (OR, 1.57, 95% CI, 1.08-2.29, P = 0.017); however, psychological distress was not (OR, 1.07, 95% CI, 0.65-1.78, P = 0.80). CONCLUSIONS This is the first study to indicate an association between sleep disturbance and new-onset subjective knee pain among survivors of the GEJE. 247/300.

Abstract
Muscle pain is a common condition that relates to various pathologies. Muscle overuse induces muscle pain, and neutrophils are key players in pain production. Neutrophils also play a central role in chronic pain by secreting interleukin (IL)-18. The aim of this study was to investigate the involvement of neutrophils and IL-18 in a mouse model of muscle pain. The right hind leg muscles of BALB/c mice were stimulated electrically to induce excessive muscle contraction. The left hind leg muscles were not stimulated. The pressure pain threshold, number of neutrophils, and IL-18 levels were investigated. Furthermore, the effects of the IL-18-binding protein and Brilliant Blue G on pain were investigated. In stimulated muscles, pressure pain thresholds decreased, and neutrophil and IL-18 levels increased compared with that in non-stimulated muscles. The administration of IL-18-binding protein and Brilliant Blue G attenuated hyperalgesia caused by excessive muscle contraction. These results suggest that increased IL-18 secretion from larger numbers of neutrophils elicits mechanical hyperalgesia.

Abstract
Elastic fibers and proteoglycans are major components of the extracellular matrix and their changes have been reported in some pathological conditions. Further, recent studies have indicated that some glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans inhibit elastic fiber assembly. The purpose of this study was to investigate changes of the elastic fibers and proteoglycans in the ligamentum flavum and analyze their relationships to thickening of the ligamentum flavum from lumbar spinal canal stenosis (LSCS). Ligamentum flavum samples were collected from 20 patients with LSCS (thickened flavum group) and 10 patients with lumbar disc herniation (non-thickened flavum group) as a control. Elastica-Masson staining and alcian blue staining were used to compare the relationship between the changes in the elastic fibers and proteoglycans. Gene and protein expressions of the elastic fibers and proteoglycans were analyzed by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry. Histological changes indicated that proteoglycans mainly increased on the dorsal side of the ligamentum flavum in accordance with the decreased elastic fibers in the thickened flavum group. The gene and protein expressions of fibrillin-2 and DANCE were significantly lower and decorin, lumican, osteoglycin, and versican were significantly higher in the thickened flavum group. Our study shows that elastic fibers decrease and proteoglycans increase in the thickened ligamentum flavum. Decreased gene expression of elastogenesis and disrupted elastic fiber assembly caused by increased proteoglycans may lead to a loss of elasticity in the thickened ligamentum flavum. Decreased elasticity may cause buckling of the tissue, which leads to thickening of the ligamentum flavum. © 2015 Orthopaedic Research Society. Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
PURPOSE To elucidate preventive effects of high molecular weight hyaluronan (HMWHA) on the joint capsule of immobilized knees in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Unilateral knee joints of rats were immobilized with an internal fixator. Either 50 μl of HMWHA (Im-HA group) or 50 μl of saline (control group) was administered intra-articularly once a week after surgery. Sagittal sections were prepared from the medial midcondylar region of the knee joints and assessed by histological, histomorphometric, and immunohistochemical methods. Gene expressions related to inflammation, fibrotic conditions, and hypoxia were evaluated by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Tissue elasticity of the capsule from both groups was examined using a scanning acoustic microscope (SAM). RESULTS CD68 positive cells decreased in adhesion areas of the synovial membrane after 1 week in both groups. The length of the superficial layer in the synovial membrane of the Im-HA group was significantly longer than those in the control group over a period of 4 to 8 weeks with significantly small numbers of CD68 positive cells. The gene expressions of IL-6, IL-1β, TGF-β, CTGF, COL1a1, COL3a1, SPARC, and HIF1-α were significantly lower in the Im-HA group compared to those in the control group. The sound speed of the anterior and posterior synovial membrane increased significantly (a reduction in elasticity) in the control group compared to those in the Im-HA group during weeks 1 to 4. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that HMWHA injections suppressed inflammatory, fibrotic, and hypoxic conditions observed in the immobilized joint capsule.

Abstract
Paroxetine, a potent and selective inhibitor of 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) uptake, was prepared through a piperidine derivative, which was reported to be one of the paroxetine metabolites in humans. Thus, the piperidine derivative was converted to its N-tert-butoxycarbonyl (N-Boc) derivative, which was then converted to N-Boc paroxetine. Paroxetine hydrochloride propan-2-ol (isopropyl alcohol (IPA)) solvate crystals were directly obtained from the N-Boc paroxetine by adding hydrogen chloride to the N-Boc paroxetine IPA solution. The amount of IPA content in the crystals was reduced by drying with a continuous change of powder X-ray diffraction patterns. Other characterizations of the solvate crystals were also conducted.
