CONCLUSION: The analysis of results showed that conventional CMT combined with PT could be more effective in improving the clinical outcomes and electrodiagnostic findings of patients with CTS compared to conventional PT only in the long term. Therefore, it can be suggested as a proper therapeutic method in CTS.
CONCLUSION: Inflammation is an important aspect of PD. This study explored the inflammatory status after a mind-body exercise. Further studies need to extend our findings to confirm the effect of Qigong in people with PD.
CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that carrageenan, a common food additive, may contribute to insulin resistance and subclinical inflammation in overweight individuals through pro-inflammatory mechanisms in the gut. Further investigation into the long-term health impacts of carrageenan and other food additives is warranted.
INTRODUCTION: Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) undergoing dialysis exhibit a higher mortality rate compared with those with other conditions, primarily due to vascular complications including coronary artery disease, heart failure and stroke. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, a type of drug for T2D, have reportedly decreased cardiovascular and renal events in patients with heart…
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that Len/Dex/DLIs in second line treatment after upfront tandem auto/allo HCT in relapsed MM patients remains feasible and safe. With a potential correlation between induction chemotherapy and DLI responses, more potent induction regimens together with higher doses of DLIs should be considered in the future.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be time-consuming, expensive, or poorly tolerated by patients with liver lesions. This is a prospective clinical trial designed to evaluate if contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) can be used to differentiate focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) from hepatocellular adenoma (HCA) with similar accuracy compared with hepatobiliary agent MRI.Institutional review board approval was obtained…
CONCLUSIONS: In this exploratory study, there was no superior ORR at d28 demonstrated in the MSC group compared with the control. However, MSCs showed a gradual treatment effect at a median of 2 weeks. Patients who completed 8 infusions may benefit from adding MSCs to one conventional second-line agent, especially those with gut involvement. MSCs…
CONCLUSION: Virtual education using social networks alone is not able to increase and improve all aspects of BSE skills sufficiently.
CONCLUSIONS: CP@home had a significant impact on reducing EMS calls for those with a lift assist call but not for the overall sample. This program filled a healthcare gap by shifting primary care delivery, which could reduce the disproportionate number of EMS calls, thus reducing healthcare costs.
CONCLUSIONS: NCAT-D combined with SSRIs was efficacious and well tolerated in LLD patients with cognitive impairment.
