CONCLUSION: School dental screening programs with referral to specific dental hospital had a highly significant impact in reducing decayed teeth and increasing the number of FT 27 in children.
CONCLUSION: The LOCATE model shows potential for impact, particularly in reducing waiting times for patients at high risk of developing severe liver disease due to NAFLD. A larger sample and longer follow-ups are needed to measure additional clinical outcomes.
CONCLUSION: In this study breathing exercises could reduce fatigue and dyspnea, and improve NYHA functional classification of HF patients which can be included in nursing care plans for respiratory rehabilitation in HF.
CONCLUSION: By adopting a heart-rate dependent and free-breathing protocol, the contrast medium volume were reduced in coronary CTA for patients with COPD, while the image quality was remained comparable to those acquired with routine CTA protocol.
CONCLUSIONS: Results from this investigation support the feasibility of the BfitBwell Telehealth Program and a subsequent efficacy trial. Novel program components also provide potential models for improving exercise program efficacy and efficiency through asynchronous exercise prescription and symptom monitoring.
To assess the efficacy and safety of LiWei Capsule (LWC) in the treatment of chronic non-atrophic gastritis (CNG) with erosions and damp-heat stasis syndrome, based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) principles. This phase II, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo- and positive-controlled trial enrolled patients diagnosed with CNG with erosions and damp-heat stasis syndrome. Participants were allocated…
CONCLUSION: The compliance of patients with intensive wearing face masks was high. The intensive wearing of face masks had a good intervention effect on the treatment of postinfectious cough, which could effectively reduce cough symptoms of patients, shorten the course of the disease, and reduce medical expenditure.
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Combining healthy lifestyle management with guideline-based care for chronic low back pain led to small improvements in disability, weight, and quality of life compared with guideline-based care alone, without additional harm. Targeting lifestyle risks in the management of chronic low back pain may be considered safe and may offer small additional health…
CONCLUSION: The addition of WAT-use did not have any effect on perceived joint function or HRQoL. The participants’ relatively high baseline scores might have influenced the outcomes of this study. We suggest that future WAT-interventions target inactive people with OA and use devices that also captures other activities such as cycling or aquatic exercise.
BACKGROUND: Myelofibrosis (MF) is a clonal haematopoietic disease, with median overall survival for patients with primary MF only 6.5 years. The most frequent gene mutation found in patients is JAK2^(V617F), causing constitutive activation of the kinase and activation of downstream signalling. Fedratinib is an oral selective JAK2 inhibitor. It has shown activity in MF and…
