    Abstract Musculoskeletal pain can be a significant safety risk to aircrew. Flight surgeons are the primary care providers for aircrew and are responsible for safely treating musculoskeletal pain. Certain medical interventions can be used to treat pain while maintaining the ability to fly safely. A previous F-18 Naval Flight Officer presented to the flight surgeon with chronic neck pain seeking noninvasive and nonpharmacological therapy. After one Osteopathic Manual Treatment session using the Fascial Distortion Model (FDM), the patient had improved pain and function. The aircrewman reported an 83% reduction in pain and a 200% improvement in cervical Range of Motion (ROM) immediately following treatment. Neck pain is a common complaint in aircrew. This pain can become an in-flight distraction, thus increasing the risk of aviation mishaps. FDM can decrease pain and increase ROM quickly, without equipment or a large amount of space and without the use of medications that may prohibit an aircrew member from flying. This case study shows the ability to treat a uniformed aircrewman with neck pain while onboard an aircraft. FDM is a technique that can be taught to all flight surgeons. Teaching future flight surgeons FDM techniques can improve the U.S. Navy's resources by decreasing time away from work along with decreasing medical costs. The use of osteopathic manipulation treatment significantly reduced an aircrewman's pain and increased ROM with one treatment while maintaining flight status per current aeromedical waiver guidelines.

    Abstract Climate change has both direct and indirect effects on human health, and some populations are more vulnerable to these effects than others. Viral respiratory infections are most common illnesses in humans, with estimated 17 billion incident infections globally in 2019. Anthropogenic drivers of climate change, chiefly the emission of greenhouse gases and toxic pollutants from burning of fossil fuels, and the consequential changes in temperature, precipitation, and frequency of extreme weather events have been linked with increased susceptibility to viral respiratory infections. Air pollutants like nitrogen dioxide, particulate matter, diesel exhaust particles, and ozone have been shown to impact susceptibility and immune responses to viral infections through various mechanisms, including exaggerated or impaired innate and adaptive immune responses, disruption of the airway epithelial barrier, altered cell surface receptor expression, and impaired cytotoxic function. An estimated 90% of the world's population is exposed to air pollution, making this a topic with high relevance to human health. This review summarizes the available epidemiologic and experimental evidence for an association between climate change, air pollution, and viral respiratory infection.

    Abstract The rationalization of human life in work, feeling, and relationships is amplified by artificial intelligence (AI), apps and automation, challenging interpersonal workers not only in how and whether they do their work, but also how they understand themselves as human. Given these trends, how do interpersonal workers interpret the humanness of their work? To answer this question, I focus on the interactive service work I call “connective labor,” relying on 80+ in-depth interviews and 300+ hours of ethnographic observations with teachers, therapists and primary care physicians in the San Francisco Bay Area and mid-Atlantic United States, as well as with less advantaged practitioners such as sex workers, hairdressers, and home health care aides. I found that these interpersonal workers differentiated themselves from AI, automated agents, and robots in three ways: (1) by describing and defending their work as not rote, (2) taking pains to prove that they were not robots, and (3) justifying their judgments as safe, unique, and worthwhile. Much of their case rested on the unpredictability of humans, in terms of feelings, secrets, and mistakes. These findings have implications for race, class, and gender inequality, as advantage shaped how people were able to demand, perform, or experience their humanness in the ways that the proliferation of algorithmic technologies made salient.

    Abstract Summary: Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. healthcare sector was facing challenges that threatened the sustainability of its workforce. These challenges included changing demographics, competition from other employers, and burnout. Now in the wake of the pandemic, the labor market is seeing more disruption with the exacerbation of these issues. Healthcare organizations have a responsibility to prevent further labor shortages so that they can continue to deliver high quality care and achieve positive health outcomes. Given the changes in people's values and behaviors, healthcare leaders can consider four innovative strategies to meet the needs of their current and future employees: flexible work arrangements, alternative benefits packages, career pathways, and mental health services. Organizations need to take into account their employee populations and the ability to invest in these changes when considering how to move forward.
