Summary: Gastrointestinal endoscopy is the gold standard for detecting and treating early and advanced GI cancers, but mastering conventional endoscopic techniques requires significant technical skills and hands-on experience. GI endoscopy simulators offer a valid solution for doctors to practice in a pre-clinical setting. Advancements in technology have allowed simulation platforms to achieve high levels of realism, providing a smart alternative to traditional training programs.

Summary: This study examines the relationship between training load measures and causal pathways of gradual onset and traumatic injury, highlighting the importance of accurately quantifying mechanical loads in estimating tissue damage and injury risk. While internal load measures are conceptually linked to injury through training intensity and psycho-physiological fatigue effects, they may be too distant from injury causation to provide meaningful relationships with injury. The study also emphasizes the weaknesses of candidate measures in altering injury likelihood and the need for more refined injury risk assessment methods.
