Mobile app-based interventions have the potential for wide-reach and therefore may be a useful tool in up-scaling physical activity interventions. In larger-scale interventions, face-to-face assessmen...
This study compared baseline data from two muscular fitness tests from the ecofit two-armed randomised controlled trial and self-assessed data collected via the ecofit smartphone app (i.e., validated ...
Participants (N = 54) completed the push-up (24.1%) and sit-to-stand (100%) tests within 14-days of receiving the app. The results revealed a strong significant correlation for the push-up test (0.83,...
This study provides support for the concurrent validity of self-reported upper and lower body muscular fitness assessments (i.e., the push-up and sit-to-stand tests) in mHealth. While these tests may ...
Neurovascular compression (NVC) produces morphological changes on the trigeminal nerve root is considered the cause of trigeminal neuralgia (TN), but there were some patients with TN found no NVC, and...
Patients with classical symptoms of TN were recruited as observation group (OG) in this study, 50 healthy controls were enrolled as control group (CG), the OG was further subtyped into young patients ...
Ultimately, 95 patients with primary TN were recruited in OG, aged from 25 to 84 (61.15 ± 12.70) years with a course of 0.5 to 30 (5.03 ± 5.41) years, their onset age ranged from 24 to 82 (56.13 ± 11....
This study suggested that TNA might play a role in TN, small TNA could be a risk factor of TN. Furthermore, patients with small TNA are more likely to combine with TM, but more studies are needed to e...
Preoperative proteinuria is a prognostic factor of chronic kidney disease (CKD). We assessed the association between preoperative proteinuria and postoperative renal function after partial nephrectomy...
We retrospectively reviewed our records of patients with a single malignant renal mass who underwent PN between 2000 and 2021. Patients with data on preoperative proteinuria were included. Baseline ch...
Two hundred ninety-five patients were included. Twenty-two of them had preoperative proteinuria. No differences of age, smoking status, hypertension or diabetes, tumor size and use of ischemia were ob...
Preoperative eGFR is the only independent predictor of long-term renal function after PN. Preoperative proteinuria correlates with renal function at 12 months. Proteinuria should be assessed before PN...
Recent studies have reported an association between chronic renal failure and hearing impairment. Yet, the exact mechanism of action is still not fully understood. In this study, we investigated the e...
A total of 90 subjects, including 30 MHD patients complicated with hearing impairment, 30 MHD patients with normal hearing, and 30 controls, were included in this case-control study. Relevant data wer...
MHD patients showed abnormally high expression of FGF23 and D-serine, where FGF23 and D-serine levels were significantly higher in the group with hearing impairment than in the group with normal heari...
This study provides potential biomarkers for the early detection of hearing impairment complicated by chronic renal failure, and the reduction of FGF23/D-serine may provide a potential target for the ...
Mitophagy and aging (MiAg) are very important pathophysiological mechanisms contributing to tumorigenesis. MiAg-related genes have prognostic value in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). However, prognostic, ...
MiAg differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in LUAD were obtained from public sequencing datasets. A prognostic model including MiAg DEGs was constructed according to patients divided into low- and hig...
Seven MiAg DEGs of LUAD were identified: CAV1, DSG2, DSP, MYH11, NME1, PAICS, PLOD2, and the expression levels of these genes were significantly correlated (P < 0.05). The RiskScore of the MiAg DEG pr...
Seven MiAg-related genes were identified to be significantly associated with the prognosis of patients diagnosed with LUAD. Moreover, the identified MiAg DEGs might affect the immunotherapy strategy o...
Medication administration errors (MAE) are a worldwide issue affecting the safety of hospitalized patients. Through the early identification of potential causes, it is possible to increase the safety ...
A descriptive correlation study through a non-standardized questionnaire was used. Data were collected from September 29 to October 15, 2021, from nurses in the Czech Republic. For statistical analysi...
The research sample consisted of 1205 nurses. The authors found that there was a statistically significant relationship between nurse education (p = 0.05), interruptions, preparation of medicines outs...
The results of the study point to the weaknesses of medication administration in selected clinical departments in hospitals. The authors found that several factors, such as high patient ratio per nurs...
The significant heterogeneity of elderly AML patients' biological features has caused stratification difficulties and adverse prognosis. This paper did a correlation study between their genetic mutati...
90 newly diagnosed elderly acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients (aged ≥60 years) who detected genetic mutations by next-generation sequencing (NGS) were enrolled between April 2015 and March 2021 in ...
A total of 29 genetic mutations were identified in 82 patients among 90 cases with a frequency of 91.1%. DNMT3A, BCOR, U2AF1, and BCORL1 mutations were unevenly distributed among different FAB classif...
The study showed specific correlations between elderly AML patients' genetic mutations and clinical features, some of which may impact prognosis....
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of abnormal semen parameters on embryo aneuploidy based on single nucleotide polymorphism microarray (SNP array)....
A total of 464 blastocysts from 103 PGT-A cycles were analyzed. The embryo quality and embryo aneuploidy rates were compared between different groups which divided by male semen parameters (sperm conc...
The total blastocysts chromosome aneuploidy rate was 42.3% (191/452). In the teratozoospermia group, the good-quality embryo and blastocyst formation rate were lower than the normal group(44.4% vs 60....
Our study revealed that sperm DFI were positively correlated with blastocyst aneuploidy rate, while sperm motility and sperm morphology rate were negatively correlated with blastocyst aneuploidy rate....
Treatment of Proteus mirabilis infections is a challenge due to the high abundance of virulence factors and the high intrinsic resistance to antimicrobials. Multidrug resistance (MDR) and extensive dr...
In this study, we aimed to investigate the causal associations of brain structure with bone mineral density (BMD). Based on the genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics of 1 325 brain i...
