Emerging Diseases/Viruses Prevention
Zoonoses represent up to 60% of infectious diseases and 75% of new diseases in humans. They can cause considerable economic losses each year, as recently illustrated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Several factors, such as intensive agricultural and livestock practices, human population growth, and international travel, are known to contribute to the emergence of zoonotic diseases. This Special Issue will cover the topic of One Health and its application in the prevention and control of emerging diseases. The One Health concept recognizes that the health of humans, animals, vectors, and their ecosystems are closely interconnected. To better understand and respond to zoonotic and emerging diseases, there is a need for coordinated, collaborative, multidisciplinary, and cross-sectoral approaches including human health, veterinary health, and environmental health.In this Special Issue, we invited colleagues to submit original research articles and scientific reviews to assemble a collection of papers highlighting advancements in our understanding of all aspects related to the surveillance and control of zoonotic disease, including (but not limited to) 1) the development of new diagnostic tools, 2) outbreak investigation and surveillance program for emerging pathogens (including One Health approaches), and 3) understanding of the mechanisms of pathogen emergence.

Inflammation
Inflammation refers to the defensive response of living tissue with a vascular system to inflammatory factors and local damage. When your body activates the immune system, it releases inflammatory cells. These cells attack infection from external pathogens, such as bacteria and viruses. Inflammation is a protective mechanism for the body. However, in relation to disease, certain factors can activate inflammatory responses, such as bad diet, sedentary lifestyles, environmental factors, etc. Ongoing inflammation or chronic inflammation can lead to tissue damage and the development of diseases. In this Special Issue papers are presented in relation to the links between inflammation and disease.

Spine Rehabilitation in 2022 and Beyond
Recent randomized trials using spine extension traction methods in conjunction with various conventional physiotherapeutic methods have demonstrated that patients with cervical, thoracic, and lumbo-pelvic sagittal plane abnormality-induced symptoms achieve greater long-term health outcomes versus patients who only receive conventional treatments that do not improve spinal alignment. In fact, although all patient groups showed initial symptomatic relief, the groups not receiving spine extension traction methods to improve sagittal plane alignment do not typically show structural improvements in their spine. Furthermore, the conventional treatment (non-spine corrective) only groups had regression of their symptoms back to pre-study values as early as 3 months following the cessation of treatment. In contrast, patient groups receiving the spine extension traction to improve physiologic lordosis, reduce hyper-kyphosis, and reduce anterior head translation posture maintained their structural realignments, maintained symptomatic improvements, and also had a number of positive health measures continue to improve after the cessation of treatments for up to 2 years. High-quality evidence points to spine corrective methods offering superior long-term outcomes for treating patients with various craniocervical, thoracic, and lumbosacral disorders. The economic impact, health benefits, and generalized awareness of the posture and spine deformities along with newer sagittal spine rehabilitation treatments demands continued attention from clinicians and researchers alike and this is the purpose of this collection of publications.

Urothelial Carcinoma
This reprint focuses on clinical research on urothelial carcinoma (UC). Currently, UC represents the most common type of epithelial tumor diagnosed in Europe, North America, South America, and Asia. Although around 70-75% of newly diagnosed UC manifests as non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, it can also involve the renal pelvis, ureter, and urethra. UC is a multifocal process, with tobacco smoking being the most relevant risk factor in developed countries. Patients with UC of the upper urinary tract have a 30% to 50% chance of developing cancer of the bladder, while patients with bladder cancer have a 2% to 3% chance of developing cancer of the upper urinary tract. UC represents a clinical and social challenge because of its incidence, post-treatment recurrence rate, and prognosis. In recent years, the poor diagnostic accuracy of available diagnostic tools such as urine cytology, white cystoscopy, and conventional imaging modalities has emphasized the urgent need for advancement in clinical guidance for UC. Moreover, novel treatment approaches, both medical and surgical, have significantly impacted the management of these patients. At the same time, the quality of life of these patients has gained growing interest.

Wearable Sensors & Gait
Gait analysis has been traditionally conducted in laboratory settings and, therefore, has required specific conditions and expensive equipment. The emergence of wearable sensors has solved the lack of ecology for these measurements and offers a more economical and easier-to-use option to perform gait analysis. Lately, such sensors have allowed the quantification of performance and workload by providing mechanical and physiological parameters, and their popularity has grown exponentially. In this context, more and more wearable sensors are commercially available and, when applied to gait analysis (either walking or running), these devices are able to provide both kinetic and kinematic variables, consequently improving the feasibility and testing time of such assessments and, therefore, becoming a real alternative for clinicians, researchers, and sport practitioners. The incremental growth in big data, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence makes these sensors suitable to connect gait biomechanics with real-life and real-time analysis. All these benefits broaden the possibilities, among others, to provide real-time biofeedback while walking and running, or to integrate sensors with cloud platforms or mobile apps to improve health and/or performance. This Special Issue collected research and contributions on the use and application of wearable sensors for gait assessment and analysis.
