INTRODUCTION: Flexor tendon entrapment of digits, presenting with symptoms such as catching or locking of the affected finger during movement, with or without pain, is known as trigger digit and trigger thumb. In these cases, involvement of the Flexor pollicis longus tendon often manifests as a fixed flexion contracture, which can become problematic if not…
CONCLUSION AND DISCUSSION: Despite all the new treatments, there is still a chance of treatment failure, and there is no consensus on the standard treatment. It is suggested that in future studies, ciprofloxacin-based four-drug regimens will be compared with other four-drug and three-drug regimens in terms of H. pylori eradication.
CONCLUSION AND DISCUSSION: Constipation is one of the critical problems among children with CP, and PEG could provide more favorable outcomes than lactulose as a treatment option for patients with constipation.
CONCLUSION AND DISCUSSION: Overall, our findings suggest that e-TRE is more effective than m-TRE for losing weight and reducing insulin resistance in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome. However, results on lipid profile are conflicting, and further randomized control trials are needed.
INTRODUCTION: Tuberculosis (TB) continues to be one of the deadliest infectious diseases over the centuries, killing more people worldwide than any other single infectious disease. There is an urgent need for additional strategies which can expedite efforts to combat TB including a preventive vaccine. In this endeavour, we have developed a protocol for a multisite,…
BACKGROUND: The rise in the number of children diagnosed with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) highlights the need for effective interventions targeting attentional control. Although recent research has demonstrated the potential of neurofeedback training (NFT) for children with ADHD, most studies have been conducted in laboratory settings, raising questions about their real-world applicability. To address this issue,…
CONCLUSION: The results of the research showed that analogical learning with an external focus of attention can be effective in developing both bowling skill and underhand ball-throwing skill in children with ASD; however, errorless learning with an external focus of attention was useful in developing bowling skill and failed to show a significant effect on…
CONCLUSIONS: The HBM-based educational intervention effectively enhanced BCS uptake, improved knowledge, and decreased barriers to BCS among Yemeni teachers in Malaysia, highlighting the potential of targeted educational programs to promote cancer screening behaviors in underserved populations.
CONCLUSIONS: Consistent with the previous iteration of ElderTree, the current iteration designed for older patients with multiple chronic conditions showed signs of improving socioemotional outcomes but no impact on physical outcomes. This may reflect the choice of chronic conditions for inclusion, which need not have impinged on patients’ physical quality of life. Two ongoing trials…
In a randomized double-blinded clinical trial of patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), goflikicept, an interleukin-1 blocker, significantly reduced systemic inflammation, measured as the area under the curve (AUC) for high-sensitivity C reactive protein at 14 days. We report secondary analyses of biomarkers at 28 days, and cardiac function and clinical end points…
