CONCLUSIONS: This study is an initial step towards describing a neurological signature of reducing emotional distress in women with chronic pelvic pain. Specifically, FC changes between the cerebellum and the amygdala and sensory areas appears to be associated with a reduction in pain and the effects of that pain. Future, larger clinical trials are warranted… →
CONCLUSION: The findings of the present study showed that the intervention based on social marketing increases awareness, perceived risk, and the demand for Pap smear tests among women. By influencing women’s intention and behavior, they can be led to participate in screening. For this purpose, a multifaceted intervention should be designed based on the barriers… →
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have identified inequities in the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures used with community-dwelling people living with dementia (PlwDs) or people living with mild cognitive impairment (PlwMCIs) depending on the urban vs. rural location of their residence. Whether those differences in health care and health services utilization still exist for people residing in shared-housing… →
INTRODUCTION: Postoperative delirium occurs in up to 40% of older surgical patients and has been associated with prolonged hospital stays, long-term cognitive impairment and increased 1-year postoperative mortality. Postoperative sleep disturbances may increase the risk of delirium, but studies investigating pharmacotherapies to improve postoperative sleep to prevent delirium remain limited. Suvorexant is a selective antagonist… →
CONCLUSION: Acute group fitness classes induce age-dependent alterations in blood pressure, but not in arterial stiffness or cardiovagal modulation. While the overall cardiovascular effects were generally consistent, differences in autonomic recovery were observed between exercise modes, with prolonged effects seen after indoor cycling. This suggests that exercise prescription should consider both age and exercise modality,… →
INTRODUCTION: Older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) respond poorly to standard induction therapy. DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) and histone-deacetylases (HDACs) are key regulators of gene expression in cells and have been investigated as important therapeutic targets. However, their effects remains unclear as induction therapy for AML. →
