This scoping review protocol outlines a systematic plan to map the utilization and reporting of behaviour change techniques and theoretical frameworks within multicomponent lifestyle interventions for sarcopenic obesity, aiming to identify gaps that hinder replicability and clinical translation.
A nationwide retrospective analysis of 301 Japanese patients demonstrates that stent placement for malignant vena cava syndrome is a safe and effective palliative treatment with a low complication rate and no need for invasive interventions, despite a notable 30-day in-hospital mortality rate.
This qualitative study of rural Uttarakhand reveals that adherence to rabies post-exposure prophylaxis is significantly undermined by a complex interplay of cultural normalization of bites, fragmented knowledge, traditional wound care practices, and systemic healthcare barriers.
This study demonstrates that the majority of pulmonary tuberculosis in rural South Africa is asymptomatic yet highly transmissible, including drug-resistant strains, indicating that symptom-based detection is insufficient for ending the TB epidemic.
This paper outlines how equity-oriented implementation research in rural and remote Australian cancer care can be effectively conducted by employing flexible, partnership-driven design choices and reflexive methodological adaptations to address contextual complexities and diverse service needs.
This retrospective cohort study demonstrates that incubating the embryo-carrying inner catheter, either alone or combined with the outer sheath, significantly improves clinical pregnancy and live birth rates compared to incubating only the outer sheath during embryo transfer.
This study presents a CD105 nanobody-functionalized layered double hydroxide nanoplatform that delivers indocyanine green for synergistic photodynamic/photothermal therapy, effectively reprogramming the tumor immune microenvironment by inducing immunogenic cell death and robust T-cell responses to suppress tumor growth and angiogenesis.
This systematic review and meta-analysis of 18 studies reveals that only 50.46% of adults with type 2 diabetes in Ethiopia adhere to recommended self-care practices, with medication adherence being the highest and self-monitoring the lowest, while highlighting that access to glucometers, diabetes education, social support, and association membership significantly improve adherence, whereas rural residence is a barrier.
This paper argues that the pharmaceutical ecosystem's reliance on fragmented data undermines decision-making and limits the efficacy of AI, necessitating a paradigm shift toward integrated, interoperable knowledge systems that transform isolated information into actionable, equitable clinical insights.
This umbrella review of 10 systematic reviews involving over 229,000 pregnant women in Africa reveals a pooled anemia prevalence of 37.68% driven primarily by low dietary diversity, inadequate micronutrient supplementation, and infections, underscoring the need for targeted, multi-faceted interventions to improve maternal health outcomes.
