Nurse-Led Home-Based Mobile Health Cardiac Rehabilitation Program for Patients With Chronic Heart Failure: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

This 12-week randomized controlled trial evaluated a nurse-led mHealth intervention for patients with chronic heart failure, conceptually informed by Riegel's middle-range theory of self-care of chronic illness. The program integrated wearable activity tracking with weekly nurse-led behavioral coaching, reflecting the core self-care processes of monitoring, maintenance, and management. Compared with usual care, the intervention significantly improved daily step count, 6-minute walk distance, metabolic equivalents, and left ventricular ejection fraction. Findings highlight the effectiveness of theory-informed, nurse-delivered mHealth strategies in enhancing physical activity and cardiopulmonary function, while underscoring the critical role of advanced practice nurses in home-based chronic disease management.

Efficacy and safety of human albumin combined with furosemide in acute decompensated heart failure with hepatic dysfunction.

BACKGROUND: Congestion is the most common clinical presentation on admission of patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). Finding effective ways to alleviate congestion has become a pivotal management step. This study sought to investigate the efficacy and safety of intravenous (IV) albumin use in conjunction with furosemide in patients hospitalized for ADHF with hepatic dysfunction in terms of subjective regression of congestion symptoms and worsening renal function. METHODS: This prospective, open-label, randomized-pragmatic trial recruited 241 patients with hepatic dysfunction hospitalized for ADHF. Patients (78 years, 54% female) were assigned to receive IV albumin with furosemide or IV furosemide alone. The coprimary study endpoints were patients' global assessment of symptoms score, quantified as the area under the curve (AUC) of the score on a visual analog scale, and the change in creatinine levels over 72 hours from admission. RESULTS: The experimental treatment group demonstrated a greater improvement in patients' global assessment of symptoms scores (AUCbaseline-72 h 3,767 vs 3,457 points; P < .001) and a milder increase in creatinine levels (0.07 vs 0.18 mg/dL; P = .045) than the IV furosemide group. The length of stay was 1 day shorter (4 vs 5 days; P < .001) and the incidence of worsening renal function was lower (25% vs 38%; P = .037) in the experimental treatment group. CONCLUSIONS: In this hypothesis generating study, among patients with ADHF and hepatic dysfunction, concomitant use of IV albumin and furosemide for the first 72 hours resulted in a significant improvement in subjective perception symptoms of decongestion and a milder increase in creatinine levels than IV furosemide alone.

Improving Patient Comfort of Vibratory Anesthetic Devices With a Dampener: A Pilot Study.

BACKGROUND: Vibratory anesthetic devices (VADs) reduce dermatologic injection pain, but their vibration can feel harsh at sensitive anatomical sites. Simple modifications improving patient comfort may enhance VAD adoption. OBJECTIVE: The authors evaluated whether dampening VAD vibration with a cotton buffer improves patient comfort and characterized tactile features influencing preferences. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In a single-site, participant-blinded pilot study (N = 53), adults received a dampened VAD (D-VAD) and standard VAD (S-VAD) at 5 sites-lateral nasal wall, submalar cheek, ear helix, lateral neck, and dorsal forearm-in randomized, contralateral application. Site-specific preference was analyzed with binomial and Cochran Q tests; demographic associations with univariate analyses. Word2vec and hierarchical clustering analyzed qualitative reasons behind patient preference. RESULTS: D-VAD was preferred at all sites across demographics-lateral nasal wall (88.7%), submalar cheek (84.9%), ear helix (88.7%), lateral neck (77.4%), and dorsal forearm (75.5%) (all p < .001), with strongest preference at face and head/neck (p = .018). Computational semantics analysis of qualitative responses identified 6 themes driving preference: Smoothness, Gentleness, Controlled, Low Frequency, Low Intensity, and Less Bothersome. CONCLUSION: Dampening VAD vibration with a cotton buffer enhances comfort across sensitive sites, with reduced harshness and smoother sensation underlying preference. This simple modification may improve patient experience, encouraging broader VAD adoption.

Targeted sequencing reveals a distinct genetic alteration landscape in oral multiple primary squamous cell carcinomas.

OBJECTIVE: Oral multiple primary cancers (MPCs) are associated with poor clinical outcomes, yet their genomic characteristics remain insufficiently understood. DESIGN: Fifty-four formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor samples from 30 patients with oral MPCs were analyzed using high-depth targeted sequencing of a customized 14-gene panel derived from prior whole-exome sequencing data. Detected alterations were analyzed after removal of synonymous mutations. RESULTS: Non-silent genomic alterations were identified in 59.3% (32/54) of samples, involving 19 patients. A total of 70 variant loci across 13 genes were detected. AKAP13 was the most frequently mutated gene at both the sample (22.2%, 12/54), with recurrent mutations observed across multiple patients. In contrast, TP53 mutations occurred at a substantially lower frequency (11.1%, 6/54). Marked inter- and intra-patient mutational heterogeneity was observed. CONCLUSIONS: FFPE-based targeted sequencing enabled an initial characterization of genomic alterations in oral MPCs. Recurrent alterations in AKAP13, GLI2, JMJD1C, and DNAH8, together with the relatively low frequency of TP53 alterations, identify candidate genomic features for further investigation and provide a basis for future studies of the molecular basis of oral MPCs.

Do vaccinated cases transmit measles? A systematic review and meta-analysis.

INTRODUCTION: We reviewed evidence on whether vaccinated individuals can transmit measles and conducted a meta-analysis to understand transmission characteristics. METHODS: We searched and extracted data from peer-reviewed and gray literature and included studies reporting measles transmission events from vaccinated individuals. We meta-analyzed the data to calculate the median number of transmissions from vaccinated cases by measles burden, number of doses, and time since first and last dose. RESULTS: We identified 11,911 peer-reviewed and 22 gray literature records and included 33 articles in our review. Seventy individuals who had received 1 or more doses of measles-containing vaccine transmitted measles virus, resulting in 237 secondary cases. Vaccinated transmitters in eliminated areas were older (median age of 19 years (IQR: 3, 21)) than those in non-eliminated areas (median age 16 years; IQR 13, 18) (p = 0.12). Additionally, 91% (30/33) of studies provided data on subsequent transmission generations, leading to 812 measles cases traced back to vaccinated individuals, with a median of 4 (IQR: 1, 10) cases per vaccinated transmitter. CONCLUSION: Measles transmissions from vaccinated cases, although relatively uncommon, must be considered in public health investigations, as such transmissions can contribute to outbreaks.

GIP contributes to postprandial regulation of splanchnic blood supply in humans with type 2 diabetes: a randomised, single-blinded, placebo-controlled, crossover study.

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: In healthy lean humans, endogenous glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) contributes significantly to the postprandial increase in arteria mesenterica superior blood flow. The vascular biology related to activation of the GIP receptor is markedly impaired in individuals with type 2 diabetes and is sometimes absent. In this population, we investigated the role of endogenous GIP on postprandial splanchnic blood flow by using the GIP receptor antagonist, GIP(3-30)NH2. The primary outcome of this study was the changes in blood flow in arteria mesenterica superior during oral glucose with or without GIP receptor antagonist infusion. METHODS: Ten participants with type 2 diabetes (age 20-80 years, BMI 20-35 kg/m2, and HbA1c >48 mmol/mol and <75 mmol/mol) were investigated in a randomised, placebo-controlled, crossover study. On four separate occasions, participants received the following treatment: oral glucose + i.v. GIP(3-30)NH2; oral glucose + i.v. saline (154 mmol/l NaCl); oral water + i.v. GIP(3-30)NH2; oral water + i.v. saline. Participants were randomly assigned to intervention groups using (random.org). Participants were unaware of allocation, while investigators were aware. No additional allocation concealment procedures were used. During all four interventions, splanchnic blood flow was measured using phase-contrast MRI in the arteria mesenterica superior, truncus coeliacus and vena portae during oral glucose (75 g) or water ingestion. The study was conducted at Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen. Liver volume and oxygenation, as well as gallbladder volume, were assessed. Blood samples were collected and analysed for insulin, C-peptide, GIP, glucagon and glucose. RESULTS: Oral glucose alone increased mean blood flow in arteria mesenterica superior by 57% (95% CI 26, 88) and this was 15% (95% CI -2, 32) lower during concomitant GIP receptor antagonist infusion, p=0.012. Infusion of GIP receptor antagonist during oral glucose treatment did also result in lower insulin secretion, C-peptide and C-peptide/glucose ratio compared with saline infusion, whereas glucagon levels and plasma glucose were unaffected. Oral water did not affect any outcomes. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION: Endogenous GIP contributes to postprandially increased splanchnic blood flow in people with type 2 diabetes. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT06426823 FUNDING: This work was supported by the Novo Nordisk Foundation.

Xerophthalmia and ocular manifestations of vitamin A deficiency in children in high-income countries: A systematic review.

Xerophthalmia is a vision-threatening eye condition caused by vitamin A deficiency (VAD). Cases of xerophthalmia in high-income countries (HICs) are vulnerable to misdiagnosis, causing delays in treatment and adverse visual outcomes. We define the features, causes and complications of VAD and xerophthalmia in children of HICs. Our study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines (CRD42024492023). We performed a search for eligible articles on Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane, PubMed and Medline. Cases reporting on children under 18 years of age residing in HICs with ocular features of VAD were eligible for inclusion. The search yielded 2474 results; 43 case reports and case series met the inclusion criteria consisting of a total of 61 cases (mean age 9.9 ± 4.2 years, range 3-17 years). Xerophthalmia was graded according to the most advanced finding for each case: 21.3% had night blindness only; 29.5% had conjunctival xerosis or Bitot spots; 29.5% had corneal xerosis, ulceration or scarring; 1.6% had xerophthalmia fundus only; and 18.0% had ocular manifestations associated with VAD that are not encompassed under the WHO classification. These features included swollen optic discs, optic neuropathy, or ocular dryness. Restrictive dietary practises were the most common mechanism of deficiency (75%), and autism was the most common underlying condition (49%). This shows that VAD remains a cause of severe visual impairment in HICs, especially when associated with delays in diagnosis and treatment. Further research is required to establish the prevalence of xerophthalmia in HICs.

Efficacy of pharmacological and microbiota-based therapies in preclinical models of autism spectrum disorder: a systematic review.

BACKGROUND: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a multifactorial neurodevelopmental condition in which pharmacological and microbiota-targeted interventions are emerging as promising therapeutic avenues. Animal models are the main tool to investigate etiology, molecular mechanisms and screening for pharmacological therapies. Methodological differences, outcome measure variability, incomplete reporting, biological confounders, and overgeneralization of the results made evaluating innovative pharmacological agents challenging. These limitations in the field highlight a need for systematic and standardized research to reliably assess and translate pharmacological interventions from ASD animal models to human clinical relevance. SUBJECTS: This systematic review synthesized efficacy evidence for pharmacological and microbiota-based therapies across established ASD animal models. RESULTS: We identified 52 recent (2010-2025) studies that reported key ASD behavioral outcomes after pharmacological or microbiota-focused treatments. Interventions were grouped into therapeutic classes - including oxytocinergic agents, E/I balance therapeutic targets, metabolic drugs, cannabinoids, purine-based interventions and emerging targets - alongside microbiota-directed strategies such as probiotics, prebiotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation. By integrating effect directions and robustness across models, we identified most potential drug candidates, evaluated the efficacy of novel strategies, and recognized critical translational gaps. The reviewed studies demonstrate that ASD-like behavioral deficits in preclinical models can be modulated through interventions targeting diverse biological systems, including neurotransmission, neuroinflammation, metabolism, and the gut-brain axis. CONCLUSIONS: These findings support the multifactorial nature of ASD pathophysiology which arises from a network of interacting systemic processes rather than a single molecular defect. It could explain the limited success of traditionally narrowly targeted interventions and suggest a paradigm shift into a more systemic approach.

Mixed Methods Findings from a Stepped Wedge Hybrid Implementation Trial of ATTAIN NAV: A Mental Health Family Navigation Intervention for Autistic Youth.

ATTAIN NAV (Access to Tailored Autism Integrated Care through Family Navigation) was delivered by family navigators to promote access to and engagement with mental health services for school-age autistic youth. This study used a mixed method, stepped wedge design to test the effects of family navigation on service and clinical outcomes while gathering information on implementation. Primary care providers from six clinics in California and 56 caregiver-child dyads enrolled in and completed the study. Clinics were randomized to either a technology-enhanced or standard family navigation condition. Caregivers completed assessments at baseline and post about child, family and services outcomes, and a subset participated in a post qualitative interview. Quantitative findings demonstrated improvements in child challenging behavior and parent activation across conditions although these improvements were more pronounced for families in the standard FN condition. At post-intervention, families in the standard FN condition reported higher levels of navigation satisfaction, a shorter time to attend their first mental health appointment, and higher engagement with their navigator. Qualitative findings complemented and expanded the quantitative survey findings. The ATTAIN NAV model of family navigation for autistic children with co-occurring mental health needs demonstrates promising implementation, service, and clinical benefits.

Indigenous and local knowledge inclusion in forest fauna research: A systematic review in the tropics.

Indigenous and Local Knowledge (ILK) is an expression of biocultural diversity and is vital for inclusive and sustainable forest management and epistemic justice. We examine how researchers studying tropical forest fauna engage with ILK and the Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLC) who are holders of this knowledge. We conducted a systematic review of 62 articles that focus on tropical forest fauna and ILK. We used a category-based quantitative and qualitative content analysis on the types of forest fauna studied and how research engages with, defines and represents ILK. We also evaluated the varied forms of inclusion of IPLC in the research. We find that less than half of the reviewed studies (25) explicitly define ILK, and only four studies reported including IPLC in the decision-making processes. Our findings reveal that science has not fully acknowledged and understood the depth of ILK and we suggest ways to address this in future research.

Your story, your brand: A career core competency for nurses.

Intentional management of one's professional story, or narrative discipline , is now a core competency and responsibility for nurses at all career stages. Workforce mobility, interdisciplinary collaboration, broadening career opportunities, and the expansion of digital platforms have elevated the importance of how nurses are perceived by colleagues, organizations, and the public. Increasingly, a nurse's professional story and digital footprint influence professional opportunities, career advancement, and even employment decisions.Many companies invest heavily in brand management to build trust and emotional connection with the people they serve. Importantly, narrative discipline also contributes directly to healthy work environments by reinforcing trust, role clarity, respect, and psychological safety. Drawing from leadership practice, emerging research on nurses' social media use, healthy work environment principles, and guidance from national nurse leadership organizations, this article outlines how nurses can align personal, professional, and enterprise identities; use language deliberately; and engage with discipline and integrity. Practical strategies are provided to help nurses move from passive narrative formation to intentional storytelling that supports career development, workforce engagement, organizational trust, and the sustainability of the nursing profession.

ReMeDy: A Flexible Statistical Framework for Region-Based Detection of DNA Methylation Dysregulation.

Region-based epigenome-wide association studies have demonstrated improved statistical power and biological interpretability compared with probe-wise analyses of DNA methylation data. However, most existing region-based methods characterize methylation dysregulation primarily through changes in mean methylation levels associated with a phenotype of interest. Substantial evidence indicates that phenotype-associated methylation alterations may also manifest through changes in methylation variability or through joint shifts in mean and variability. Despite this, no existing statistical framework jointly models mean-variance methylation changes in a region-based manner. We propose ReMeDy, a flexible statistical framework that uses a hierarchical likelihood approach within a generalized linear model setting to identify differentially methylated regions, variably methylated regions, and regions exhibiting joint differential and variable methylation at a genome-wide scale. Unlike existing models, ReMeDy operates directly on biologically defined co-methylated regions, allowing it to naturally capture spatial correlation inherent in DNA methylation array data, while avoiding reliance on heuristic, user-defined tuning parameters such as smoothing spans and kernel bandwidths that can substantially influence results and introduce subjectivity. Through extensive simulation studies and comprehensive benchmarking against popular models, we demonstrate that ReMeDy maintains false discovery and Type-I error rates at nominal levels while achieving consistently higher statistical power across a wide range of realistic scenarios. Application to population-level DNA methylation data further shows that ReMeDy identifies biologically meaningful regions and pathways implicated in complex human diseases that are not captured by conventional mean-based analyses alone. ReMeDy is implemented as an open-source R package and is freely available at https://github.com/SChatLab/ReMeDy.

How to assess different types of abstract concepts in brain disorders: A systematic review.

The clinical evaluation of semantic knowledge has predominantly relied on tools targeting concrete concepts, whereas abstract knowledge has historically received limited attention despite its importance in everyday communication. Only a few instruments have explored the internal subdivision of abstract knowledge, likely due to the intrinsic difficulty of defining specific types of concepts or dimensions, resulting in a fragmented and heterogeneous neuropsychological assessment framework that limits our understanding of this domain. This systematic review examined the tools used to assess various types of abstract concepts in clinical populations. A literature search has been performed on the electronic databases of PubMed and Google Scholar (last update: October 2025). A total of 17 tests is reviewed, differing in the test characteristics, i.e. ranging from automatic to controlled processes and varying in ecological validity, the type of stimuli employed, and the abstract dimensions explored. Most studies have focused on neurodegenerative patients, while comparatively few have examined other clinical conditions. The risk of bias of the reviewed studies was assessed using an ad hoc developed instrument. This review highlights the need for future research to extend investigations to additional abstract domains and clinical populations, while also identifying key challenges related to stimulus selection and the determination of the most appropriate assessment framework.

Biliary Cirrhosis in Myhre Syndrome: The First Case Report of Liver Transplantation and a Review of Reported Hepatic Findings.

Myhre syndrome is a rare autosomal-dominant disorder caused by gain-of-function pathogenic variants in SMAD4 and is now recognized as a progressive multisystem fibrotic disease. Although transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling plays a central role in hepatic fibrogenesis, hepatobiliary involvement in Myhre syndrome has not been systematically evaluated. We report the first case of Myhre syndrome complicated by rapidly progressive biliary cirrhosis requiring liver transplantation in a 15-year-old male with a confirmed SMAD4 p.Ile500Val variant. Following an infectious episode, the patient developed severe cholestasis with imaging and histopathologic findings consistent with fibro-obliterative cholangiopathy, ultimately necessitating living donor liver transplantation. A systematic review of 55 published reports comprising 217 patients with Myhre syndrome revealed that hepatic evaluation was rarely performed and that previously reported liver abnormalities were mild and secondary, most commonly related to right heart dysfunction or metabolic disease, with no prior cases of progressive biliary fibrosis. This case suggests that dysregulated SMAD4-TGF-β signaling may predispose selected organs to fibro-obliterative injury and that infection-driven inflammation may act as a critical trigger for hepatic fibrosis in Myhre syndrome, expanding the recognized spectrum of organ involvement in this disorder.

S-layer-phage interaction in Clostridioides difficile.

Successful infection by a bacteriophage requires the injection of the phage genome into the cytoplasm of the host bacterium. To achieve this, an infecting phage must traverse the layers of the host cell envelope, including the membrane(s) and the cell wall. This process is further complicated in bacterial species that produce a proteinaceous S-layer on the outermost surface of the cell. Surprisingly little is known about the mechanistic basis of these early stages in the phage lifecycle, and even less is known about infection of S-layer producing bacteria. Recent advances in structural biology, particularly in cryoEM, have dramatically improved our understanding of the structures of both bacterial S-layers and phage virions separately, but we still lack a molecular view combining both phage and S-layer in the process of infection. Here, we review our current understanding of phage-S-layer interactions, using the human pathogen Clostridioides difficile as an example host.

MicroRNAs in Oral Bio-Fluids as Predictive Biomarkers of Orthodontic Tooth Movement: A Systematic Review.

This systematic review was designed to assess scientific evidence of the association of microRNA expression during orthodontic tooth movement through various time points. A systematic review was performed in accordance with the PRISMA checklist. A search strategy was developed in electronic databases including Med Line, Scopus, EBSCO Host and ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Global until June 2025. Eligibility criteria included studies that investigated microRNA expression in saliva/GCF during orthodontic treatment. The risk of bias of the included studies was analysed using the QUADAS-2 and RoB-2 tools. The search retrieved 2800 records, of which nine studies were selected. Minor variations in GCF collection were noted, while stimulated saliva was collected in one study. RT-PCR and the Fluro meter accounted for the majority of miRNA estimation. Thirteen miRNAs were identified as target biomarkers for OTM regulation. Despite the high risk of bias, the evidence from the current systematic review indicates that microRNAs can be considered as potential biomarkers of orthodontic tooth movement in oral biofluids.

Efficacy and Safety of Bimagrumab in Adults With Obesity and Metabolic Dysfunction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

AIMS: This study aims to systematically evaluate the efficacy of bimagrumab on body composition and glucose parameters in adults with obesity and metabolic dysfunction and its safety profile. METHODS: We searched MEDLINE, PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library on April 20, 2026, for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing bimagrumab treatment in adults with obesity, insulin resistance, or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool (RoB 2), and meta-analyses of efficacy and safety data were conducted using R software. The Grades of Recommendation, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system was used to assess the strength of evidence. The study was registered with PROSPERO (CRD420261377110). RESULTS: Of the 134 retrieved records, 4 RCTs (enrolling 268 participants) were included. The included population represented a broad spectrum of metabolic dysfunction, from obesity and nondiabetic insulin resistance to established T2DM. Compared with placebo, bimagrumab treatment significantly reduced total weight (mean difference [MD] -4.85 kg, 95% confidence interval [CI] -6.82 to -2.88), fat mass (-4.72 kg [-8.05 to -1.40]), and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) (-0.13% [-0.23 to -0.03]) and significantly increased total lean mass (1.66 kg [0.81 to 2.51]). However, bimagrumab led to an increase in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) concentrations of 0.47 mmol/L [0.03 to 0.91] and significantly increased incidences of discontinuation (risk ratio [RR] 5.75 [1.61 to 20.46]), muscle spasms (RR 10.44 [4.23 to 25.75]), and diarrhoea (RR 4.91 [2.38 to 10.11]). CONCLUSION: Bimagrumab effectively reversed adverse effects on body composition in obese individuals, resulting in significant fat reduction, increased skeletal muscle mass, and improved glycemic control, suggesting that bimagrumab is a promising new target for personalized metabolic therapy.

Post-trial 12-month follow-up of TRACE (targeted research on addictive and compulsive eating) randomised controlled trial participants: A brief report.

Few treatment interventions for addictive eating have evaluated long-term effectiveness. This post-trial follow-up study evaluates secondary changes in addictive eating symptoms and quality of life at 12-months in a sample of individuals who participated in the TRACE (Targeted Research for Addictive and Compulsive Eating) RCT. Thirty-three adults out of possible 144 (82% female), median age 53 years, randomised to either the active intervention (five telehealth sessions delivered over 3-months), passive intervention (self-guided workbook) or control group completed an online post-trial survey. Pre- and immediate post-intervention (3-months) outcomes were compared to 12-months post-trial outcomes. Positive effects reported in the short term showed a rebound effect at post-trial follow-up in ∼50% of participants. The findings suggest that longer term support is needed to maintain changes in addictive eating behaviours and improve quality of life. Future research is needed to identify optimal intervention durations and support options for sustained change. Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN12621001079831).
