Body Armor and Lumbar Disc Herniation in Young Military Veterans: A Case Series
CONCLUSIONS: For military veterans, onset of lower back pain from a disc herniation at a young age may be linked to carrying heavy body armor and loads. However, the small sample size of this case series limits causal relationship inferences.PMID:38554267 | DOI:10.1093/milmed/usae131 (Source: Military Medicine)

Role of endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase-1 gene polymorphism (rs13167972) in occurrence susceptibility of ankylosing spondylitis in a sample of Iraqi male patients
CONCLUSION: The AS occurred in young overweight males with blood group O-. The AG and GG genotypes are risk factors for AS development while the G allele is a risk factor that increases the chances for disease incidence.PMID:38551779 | DOI:10.1007/s11033-024-09438-0 (Source: Molecular Biology Reports)
