Yoga practice appears to reduce stress and associated emotions. Specifically, yoga has been associated with significant decreases in depression, anxiety, and perceived stress. These findings underscore the promise of yoga practice for improving mental health in women prone to stress.

This study aims to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of an eight-week Hatha Yoga intervention for improving stress and mental health. To this end, the investigators will recruit 40 women high in stress to receive an 8-week hatha yoga intervention consisting of two weekly 90-minute sessions. At baseline and at post-intervention, participants will undergo several cognitive, emotional, and behavioral assessments, followed by a relaxation time. Primary feasibility outcomes will be the time required to recruit 40 participants, the number of screen failures, participant retention and participant adherence to the study protocol. Acceptability will be evaluated with questionnaires and an interview during the final visit. Primary efficacy outcomes will be group differences in pre- to post-intervention change in perceived stress and various mental health parameters.
It is well known that a video laryngoscope can provide better glottic view than a direct laryngoscope. However, to date, a direct laryngoscope has been the standard equipment for tracheal intubation. Recently, it seems that use of the video laryngoscope has increased. However, the advantage of the video laryngoscope over a direct laryngoscope has not been measured quantitatively. In this study, the glottic view by the use of video laryngoscope will be compared with that of the direct laryngoscope simultaneously, by using C-MAC S-imager installed with a disposable Macintosh blade. Intubating anesthesiologists will use it as if it is a direct laryngoscope. Simultaneously, the glottic views visualized on the monitor of the video laryngoscope will be recorded and evaluated later. For quantitative comparison, the glottic view will be scored with the Percentage of glottic opening scale, for both direct laryngoscopy and video laryngoscopy. Also, the glottic view will be compared by Cormack-Lehane grade.
Obesity combined with critical illness might increase the risk of acquiring infections and hence mortality. In this patient population the pharmacokinetics of antimicrobials vary significantly, making antimicrobial dosing challenging. The objective of this study was to assess the predictive performance of published population pharmacokinetic models of vancomycin in patients who are critically ill or obese for a cohort of critically ill patients who are obese. This was a multi-center retrospective study conducted at 2 hospitals. Adult patients with a body mass index of ≥30 kg/m2 were included. PubMed was searched for published population pharmacokinetic studies in patients who were critically ill or obese. External validation was performed using Monolix software. A total of 4 models were identified in patients who were obese and 5 models were identified in patients who were critically ill. In total, 138 patients who were critically ill and obese were included, and the most accurate models for these patients were the Goti and Roberts models. In our analysis, models in patients who were critically ill outperformed models in patients who were obese. When looking at the most accurate models, both the Goti and the Roberts models had patient characteristics similar to ours in terms of age and creatinine clearance. This indicates that when selecting the proper model to apply in practice, it is important to account for all relevant variables, besides obesity.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common chronic disease characterized by airflow obstruction, which seriously threatens people's health. The COPD mouse model was established with cigarette smoke induction. Hematoxylin-eosin staining and Masson staining were carried out to observe the pathological changes of lung tissues in COPD mice. RTEL1 was silenced in COPD mice, and immunohistochemistry was used to detect RTEL1, ki67 and Caspase-3 expression. The role of RTEL1 in inflammation were evaluated by ELISA, and the impacts of RTEL1 on M1 and M2 macrophage markers (iNOS and CD206) were evaluated by qPCR and western blotting. In COPD model, there was an increase in the number of inflammatory cells, with slightly disorganized cell arrangement, unclear hierarchy, condensed and solidified nuclei, while knockdown of RTEL1 improved the inflammatory infiltration. Moreover, knockdown of RTEL1 reduced ki67-positive cells and increased Caspase-3 positive cells in COPD group. The increased inflammatory factors (IL-1β, MMP-9, TNF-α, IL-4, IL-6, and IL-23) in COPD were suppressed by knockdown of RTEL1, while iNOS was raised and CD206 was inhibited. In conclusion, knockdown of RTEL1 promoted M1 and inhibited M2 macrophage polarization and inflammation to alleviate COPD.
Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) is a Ca2+ sensor located in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of skeletal muscle, where it is best known for its role in store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE). Genetic syndromes resulting from STIM1 mutations are recognized as a cause of muscle weakness and atrophy. Here, we focused on a gain-of-function mutation that occurs in humans and mice (STIM1+/D84G mice), in which muscles exhibited constitutive SOCE. Unexpectedly, this constitutive SOCE did not affect global Ca2+ transients, SR Ca2+ content, or excitation-contraction coupling (ECC) and was therefore unlikely to underlie the reduced muscle mass and weakness observed in these mice. Instead, we demonstrate that the presence of D84G STIM1 in the nuclear envelope of STIM1+/D84G muscle disrupted nuclear-cytosolic coupling, causing severe derangement in nuclear architecture, DNA damage, and altered lamina A-associated gene expression. Functionally, we found that D84G STIM1 reduced the transfer of Ca2+ from the cytosol to the nucleus in myoblasts, resulting in a reduction of [Ca2+]N. Taken together, we propose a novel role for STIM1 in the nuclear envelope that links Ca2+ signaling to nuclear stability in skeletal muscle.
Intranasal Neurostimulator applied intranasally (active) followed by extranasal application on Day 1. Participants were randomized to determine the intranasal and extranasal sequence for Days 15 and 29.
Participants with FL and DLBCL will receive rituximab SC 1400 milligrams (mg) once a month for a minimum of 4 cycles as induction therapy. Participants with FL will continue to receive rituximab once in 2 months for a minimum of 6 cycles as maintenance therapy according to local standards of care. Participants will also receive standard chemotherapy regimen (CHOP \[cyclophosphamide+doxorubicin+vincristine+prednisone\], CVP \[cyclophosphamide+vincristine+prednisone\] or FC \[fludarabine+cyclophosphamide\]) during induction.
A neurological deterioration in a child presents a significant worry to the family and often a diagnostic challenge to the clinician. A dysregulated immune response is implicated in a wide and growing spectrum of neurological conditions. In this review we consider the current paradigms in which immune-mediated encephalopathies are considered; the development of paediatric specific diagnostic criteria that facilitate early consideration and treatment of immune-mediated conditions and the limitations and potential developments in diagnostic testing. We consider the expanding phenotype of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody, the spectrum of virus-associated encephalopathy syndromes, and the strategies that have been employed to build an evidence base for the management of these rare conditions. Looking forward we explore the potential for advanced molecular investigations to improve our understanding of immune-mediated encephalitides and guide future treatment strategies. Recently characterized immune-mediated central nervous system disorders include new antibodies causing previously recognized phenotypes. Aggregation of conditions with similar clinical triggers, and characterization of unique imaging features in virus-associated encephalopathy syndromes. Immune treatment iscurrently guided by meta-analysis of individualized patient data and/or multi-national consensus.
The following table (Table 3) presents the adverse experiences that occurred at a rate of 1% or more and were more frequent in patients treated with NUVIGIL than in placebo group patients in the placebo-controlled clinical trials.

The prescriber should be aware that the figures provided below cannot be used to predict the frequency of adverse experiences in the course of usual medical practice, where patient characteristics and other factors may differ from those occurring during clinical studies. Similarly, the cited frequencies cannot be directly compared with figures obtained from other clinical investigations involving different treatments, uses, or investigators. Review of these frequencies, however, provides prescribers with a basis to estimate the relative contribution of drug and non-drug factors to the incidence of adverse events in the population studied.

In this arm, participants underwent a 6-hour traditional face-to-face lecture on breastfeeding education in a classroom at a university. Course was divided into 4 1.5-hour sessions during a time span of two weeks.
23 children with Cerebral Palsy and 30 healthy children will be included in the study, and the families of all children participating in the study will sign an informed consent form.After signing the consent form from the families of the children included in the study, their demographic information will be recorded and their Gross Motor Function Classification System levels will be determined.

Children's upper extremity functionality will be evaluated with the Quality of Upper Extremity Skills Test. To determine their functional balance, the Single-Leg Stance Test and the Four Step Square Test are measured. Additionally, balances will be determined by the Trunk Control Measurement Scale. Evaluations are made using tables and chairs. Evaluations take approximately 60 minutes, depending on the condition of the children, and all evaluations will be made one-on-one by the physiotherapist. In the study where power analysis was performed, 50 child evaluations were deemed appropriate. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences package program is used to analyze the data. Whether the data complies with normal distribution will be evaluated using the Shapiro Wilk Test and histogram graphs. Descriptive statistics are given as mean, standard deviation, median, number and percentage. Numerical data between groups are compared using Student's t test and Mann Whitney U test. Categorical data will be compared using the Chi Square test. Spearman's correlation test was used for correlation analysis, p value \<0.05 will be considered statistically significant.
Individuals in the United States now consume a substantial proportion of their total energy as added sugars. The consumption of caloric sweeteners has been steadily increasing over the last four decades. The potential health consequences of this practice have been subject to considerable debate. In a prospective follow-up study of 43,960 African American women who gave complete dietary and weight information and were free from diabetes at baseline, the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus was higher with higher intake of both sugar-sweetened soft drinks and fruit drinks. Similar conclusions were drawn in a meta- analysis of 11 studies of consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages in relation to risk of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. Thus, in addition to weight gain, higher consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages is associated with development of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. These findings support the current dietary guidelines that encourage consumers to limit their intake of added sugars. There is a need for a sugar substitute that is safe, palatable and has favorable effects on energy metabolism and overall glucose homeostasis. One such sugar is possibly D-allulose also referred to in the literature as D-psicose. D-allulose is a non-calorie monosaccharide which has approximately 70% sweetness of sucrose. Early clinical trials of D-allulose demonstrating its anti-diabetic and anti-obesity effects have been carried out in Kagawa (Japan). As of to date, there are still insufficient data to confirm the efficacy of pure D-allulose in Caucasian or African American populations. The present proposal is to address the efficacy of D-allulose in reducing postprandial blood glucose level in a random sample of Caucasian and African American population. This is a single center, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study evaluating the efficacy of pure D-allulose in Caucasian and African American populations. Subjects will be their own controls as they will be studied sequentially for the effects of varying amounts of D-allulose given in a random order on glycemic and insulin excursions associated with standardized oral sucrose load of 50 gms.
The Jinling White duck represents a newly developed breed characterized by a rapid growth rate and a superior meat quality, offering significant economic value and research potential; however, the genetic basis underlying their body weight traits remains less understood. Here, we performed whole-genome resequencing for 201 diverse Jinling White male ducks and conducted population genomic analyses, suggesting a rich genetic diversity within the Jinling White duck population. Equipped with our genomic resources, we applied genome-wide association analysis for body weight on birth (BWB), body weight on 1 wk (BW1), body weight on 3 wk (BW3), body weight on 5 wk (BW5) and body weight on 7 wk (BW7) using 4 statistical models. Comparative studies indicated that factored spectrally transformed linear mixed models (FaST-LMM) demonstrated the most superior efficiency, yielding more results with the minimal false positives. We discovered that PUS7, FBXO11, FOXN2, MSH6, and SLC4A4 were associated with BWB. RAG2, and TMEFF2 were candidate genes for BW1, and STARD13, Klotho, ZAR1L are likely candidates for BW3 and BW5. PLXNC1, ATP1A1, CD58, FRYL, OCIAD1, and OCIAD2 were linked to BW7. These findings provide a genetic reference for the selection and breeding of Jinling White ducks, while also deepened our understanding of Growth and development phenotypic in ducks.
Early life stress (ELS) is linked to an elevated risk of poor health and early mortality, with emerging evidence pointing to the pivotal role of the immune system in long-term health outcomes. While recent research has focused on the impact of ELS on inflammation, this study examined the impact of ELS on immune function, including CMV seropositivity, inflammatory cytokines, and lymphocyte cell subsets in an adolescent cohort. This study used data from the Early Life Stress and Cardiometabolic Health in Adolescence Study (N = 191, aged 12 to 21 years, N = 95 exposed to ELS). We employed multiple regression to investigate the association between ELS, characterized by early institutional care, cytomegalovirus (CMV) seropositivity (determined by chemiluminescent immunoassay), inflammation (CRP, IL-6, and TNF-a determined by ELISA), and twenty-one immune cell subsets characterized by flow cytometry (sixteen T cell subsets and five B cell subsets). Results reveal a significant association between ELS and lymphocytes that was independent of the association between ELS and inflammation: ELS was associated with increased effector memory helper T cells, effector memory cytotoxic T cells, senescent T cells, senescent B cells, and IgD- memory B cells compared to non-adopted youth. ELS was also associated with reduced percentages of helper T cells and naive cytotoxic T cells. Exploratory analyses found that the association between ELS and fewer helper T cells and increased cytotoxic T cells remained even in cytomegalovirus (CMV) seronegative youth. These findings suggest that ELS is associated with cell subsets that are linked to early mortality risk in older populations and markers of replicative senescence, separate from inflammation, in adolescents.
This study aims to generate preliminary data regarding the efficacy of a combined cognitive-training and Tai Chi- Qi Gong exercise lifestyle intervention in participants diagnosed with Early-Onset Alzheimer's Disease (EOAD). Participants will complete a series of cognitive, functional, and mood assessments at a remotely-assessed baseline visit, and then be randomized into one of two conditions: (1) Computerized Cognitive Training + Tai Chi Exercise or (2) Active Control. Outcome measures will be repeated immediately Post-Treatment and at 6-months post-treatment Follow-Up. Specific Aim 1 will examine the feasibility of this lifestyle intervention and outcome assessments when applied to participants with EOAD. Specific Aim 2 will investigate if this lifestyle intervention improves short- and long-term cognition, functioning, and mood. Specific Aim 3 will be exploratory to assess whether individual differences in training or clinical/ demographic characteristics moderate the degree of benefit from this intervention; owing to sample size limitations in this feasibility study, focus of this latter aim will be on determining effect sizes and sample-size magnitude needed for future work.
The purpose of this study is to investigate how well Roflumilast improves mucociliary clearance in people with chronic bronchitis. Several studies show that roflumilast may modulate (change) mucociliary function. This study is designed to determine if these favorable effects lead to improved mucociliary clearance (MCC) in people with chronic bronchitis, thereby, reducing the potential for acute infections and hospitalizations. Daliresp® (roflumilast) is a drug currently marketed (approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in humans) in the U.S. and is indicated (used) for treatment of people with severe COPD to treat the symptoms of cough and excess mucous linked to chronic bronchitis. Roflumilast is used to reduce the risk (chance) of COPD exacerbations (increase in symptoms such as cough, mucus secretions, and shortness of breath, that can be life threatening and reduces the ability to breathe) linked to chronic bronchitis (swelling of the airways in the lungs). Roflumilast is FDA approved to decrease the number of flare-ups of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in patients with severe COPD with chronic bronchitis and a history of flare-ups. The exact way Roflumilast does this is not known. Although Roflumilast is an FDA approved drug, in this study the drug is not being used for its FDA-approved indication.

If you agree to be in this study, you will receive no new COPD treatment other than the drugs provided for the study. You will also be given a tablet to take once a day, which will be placebo for at least part of the study. A placebo is a substance that looks like the study drug but that contains no active ingredients.

The study is a double-blind study. Double-blind means that neither you nor the study doctor will know which study regimen (roflumilast or placebo) you are receiving throughout the study. However, this information can be made available if medically necessary and as determined by the participant's study. You will undergo baseline mucociliary Clearance (MCC) Measurements then will be randomized (by chance, like the flip of a coin) to receive either roflumilast or placebo for 4 weeks, then there will be a 4 week wash-out phase, and a second 4 week period of roflumilast/placebo depending on initial randomization. Mucociliary Clearance (MCC) Measurements will be conducted at the beginning and at the end of each 4 week study regimen phase. You will be in the study for about 12 weeks and there will be up to 12 visits. At baseline, and prior to each MCC Procedure, you will have health assessments which may include Physical Examination, Health and Demographic Interview, Exhaled Carbon Monoxide (eCO) Testing, Spirometry (Breathing Test), Expectorated Sputum Collection, Pregnancy Testing and Mucociliary Clearance (MCC) Measurements.
PURPOSE: This study aimed to estimate the prevalence and main causes of blindness and visual impairment in population aged 50 years and older in Armenia using Rapid Assessment of Avoidable Blindness (RAAB) methodology.
METHODS: The study team randomly selected 50 clusters (each consisting of 50 people) from all 11 regions of Armenia. Data on participants' demographics, presenting visual acuity, pinhole visual acuity, principal cause of presenting visual acuity, spectacle coverage, uncorrected refractive error (URE), and presbyopia were collected using the RAAB survey form. Four teams of trained eye care professionals completed data collection in 2019.
RESULTS: Overall, 2,258 people of 50 years and older participated in the study. The age- and gender- adjusted prevalence of bilateral blindness, severe and moderate visual impairment were 1.5% (95% CI: 1.0-2.1), 1.6% (95% CI: 1.0-2.2) and 6.6% (95% CI: 5.5-7.7), respectively.The main causes of blindness were cataract (43.9%) and glaucoma (17.1%). About 54.6% and 35.3% of participants had URE and uncorrected presbyopia, respectively. The prevalence of bilateral blindness and functional low vision increased with age and was the highest in participants 80 years and older.
CONCLUSION: The rate of bilateral blindness was comparable with findings from countries that share similar background and confirmed that untreated cataract was the main cause of blindness. Given that cataract blindness is avoidable, strategies should be developed aiming to further increase the volume and quality of cataract care in Armenia.
