Increased dietary sodium is linked to hypertension, but most young adults display «sodium-resistant» blood pressure (BP), meaning BP is not elevated with sodium loading. In sodium-resistant rodents, fructose induces salt-sensitive BP via increased renal sodium reabsorption. Therefore, we tested the impact of fructose and sodium on renal sodium handling and BP in healthy adults, hypothesizing…
CONCLUSIONS: A higher level of UPF consumption was associated with a higher risk of depressive symptoms and adversely affected mental health among older adults.
CONCLUSIONS: Interactive education effectively enhances psychiatric patients’ knowledge and attitudes toward ACP but does not significantly influence their intent to sign AD. We advocate for their empowerment in ACP discussions. This study highlights the feasibility of integrating ACP promotion into routine psychiatric care.
CONCLUSIONS: Brief psychoeducation about behavioral activation principles in an app may protect young people from depression over 3 months, even when only used once. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).
CONCLUSIONS: The demonstrated satisfaction, adherence, and effectiveness highlight the high acceptability of a web-based, semisupervised nutrition and exercise intervention delivered entirely digitally in individuals with chronic disease. Future studies may benefit from having a baseline physical function inclusion threshold, the use of a more sensitive primary physical function measure, and a higher intensity digital exercise…
CONCLUSIONS: iConquerFear does not appear appropriate for OC survivors in its current format due to limited engagement, varied acceptability, safety concerns and minimal group differences in FCR/P after iConquerFear use. More work is needed regarding how to augment online interventions addressing sensitive issues such as FCR/P in OC survivors (e.g., offering complementary in-person support) to…
CONCLUSIONS: The trends in PPV, PVI, and CO reflected the changes in intravascular volume, but how well they indicated hypovolemia > 500 mL may differ depending on the choice of infusion fluid. Identifying hypovolemia using non-invasive hemodynamic monitors remains challenging and associated with low predictive values.
INTRODUCTION: Atrial fibrillation is the most prevalent sustained arrhythmia worldwide and is expected to increase substantially within the coming years. Although lifestyle changes and risk factor modification are now acknowledged as central components of atrial fibrillation management, the effects of exercise on disease-specific outcomes are still not extensively documented due to few high-quality randomised trials.…
CONCLUSIONS: This current study signifies the use of YouTube as a teaching tool. YouTube based learning had a superior efficacy to traditional based learning for instruction of cephalometric landmarks identification.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with acute HF, the combination of diabetes and CKD was associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events. However, the efficacy and safety of eplerenone were not influenced by diabetes and CKD status.
