CONCLUSIONS: In this follow-up of a randomised clinical trial, our data suggest neither major harm nor benefit for the offspring in early adulthood following exposure to repeat dose(s) of antenatal corticosteroids compared with a single course prior to 32 weeks’ gestation. Smaller effects cannot be excluded and follow-up of adult offspring from other trials of… →

CONCLUSIONS: Oral-CPM induces additional gonadal damage to the ifosfamide-based induction regimen. Fertility preservation could be considered in patients exposed to maintenance, especially those >5 years old and exposed to ≥12 months of oral-CPM. →

Background and Objectives: Prediabetes (PD) is characterized by impaired glucose metabolism and is associated with an elevated risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. This study aimed to investigate the effects of an 8-week core exercise intervention on glycemic control, lipid profiles, insulin sensitivity, body composition, and physical performance in prediabetic women. Materials and… →

Background: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a frequently used neuromodulation method in recent years. While the mechanism of improvement in diseases such as epilepsy, dementia, and depression is being studied, its potential effect on vestibular dysfunction is also being investigated. The aim of our study was to investigate the effect of transcutaneous auricular VNS (taVNS)… →

CONCLUSION: The addition of inspiratory plus expiratory neuromuscular electrical stimulation to conventional postpartum rehabilitation significantly improves outcomes in patients with postpartum DRA. Overall, these findings provide evidence for a novel therapeutic approach that targets both abdominal muscle function and respiratory mechanics, offering a promising direction for the management of DRA in postpartum women. →
