Critical analysis of the evaluation of postoperative dysphagia following an anterior cervical discectomy and fusion
CONCLUSION: Postoperative dysphagia risk increases in ACDF compared to ALDF, likely due to underlying anatomy. Postoperative dysphagia symptoms are not effectively documented by spine surgeons and as a result underevaluated by dysphagia specialists. Patients may benefit from more extensive pre- and post-operative screening, evaluation, and referral regarding dysphagia symptoms following ACDF.PMID:35427936 | DOI:10.1016/j.amjoto.2022.103466

Meal Timing, Meal Frequency and Metabolic Syndrome
Nutrients. 2022 Apr 21;14(9):1719. doi: 10.3390/nu14091719.ABSTRACTIndividuals with metabolic syndrome have increased risk for developing health conditions, including cardiovascular diseases and stroke. Modifiable risk factors, such as exercise and diet, are key components in the prevention and control of metabolic syndrome. Specifically, dietary patterns and habits are extremely successful in controlling more than one of the metabolic syndrome risk factors. Meal timing and frequency have been associated with type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and other chronic conditions. However, there is limited evidence linking ...

A Systematic Review of the Impact of Select Mindfulness Interventions on Psychological Outcomes among Older Adults with Chronic Health Conditions
CONCLUSIONS: Early evidence for MIs impact on psychological outcomes is promising, though more work involving randomized control trials is needed. Current studies generally lack methodological rigor and have a high risk of bias. Given the high rates of chronic pain in older adults and the emerging evidence for MIs, future work in this area is of particular value.CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Practitioners should be guardedly optimistic about the value of MIs and ACT for older adults with chronic health conditions.PMID:35585039 | DOI:10.1080/07317115.2022.2076636

Outcomes of carotid sparing intensity-modulated radiotherapy for early stage glottic cancer in 201 patients: Multicenter study of Turkish Radiation Oncology Society/TROD-01-007
CONCLUSION: Oncologic outcomes of patients treated with carotid sparing IMRT were excellent; comparable with historical series, with acceptable side effects. Longer follow-up is needed to estimate long term effect on stroke.PMID:35596585 | DOI:10.1002/hed.27101

Association between plasma Vitamin B5 levels and all-cause mortality: A nested case-control study
This study suggests that higher baseline levels of plasma vitamin B5 are a risk factor for all-cause mortality among Chinese patients with hypertension, especially among older adults and those with adequate folate levels. The findings, if confirmed, may inform novel clinical and nutritional guidelines and interventions to optimize vitamin B5 levels.PMID:35699663 | DOI:10.1111/jch.14516

Contraception knowledge and practices among students in Lebanese universities
This study aimed to evaluate the proportion of contraception users among Lebanese youth, and the extent of knowledge and perception on birth control; and to raise awareness and sensitise young adults to sexual health, which remains taboo in Lebanon. The 30-item questionnaire was broadcasted to students in private and public universities in Lebanon, through social media and it collected information on contraception use and student knowledge. Over 30% of responders were medical students, and 41% have ever used contraceptives (mostly women); among which, 52.1% for contraception versus 47.9% for medical reasons. According to r...

Health impact assessment and evaluation of economic costs attributed to PM < sub > 2.5 < /sub > air pollution using BenMAP-CE
This study aimed to quantify health effects and associated economic values of reducing PM2.5 air pollution using BenMAP-CE in Qom in 2019. The air quality data were acquired from Qom Province Environmental Protection Agency, and the population data were collected from Qom Province Management and Planning Organization website. The number of deaths due to Stroke, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Lung Cancer, and Ischemic Heart Disease attributable to PM2.5 were estimated using BenMAP-CE based on two control scenarios, 2.4 and 10 μg/m3, known as scenarios I and II, respectively. The associated economic effect of premat...

Chronopharmacology of immune-related diseases
Allergol Int. 2022 Jul 15:S1323-8930(22)00075-2. doi: 10.1016/j.alit.2022.06.006. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTClock genes, circadian pacemaker resides in the paired suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN), control various circadian rhythms in many biological processes such as physiology and behavior. Clock gene regulates many diseases such as cancer, immunological dysfunction, metabolic syndrome and sleep disorders etc. Chronotherapy is especially relevant, when the risk and/or intensity of the symptoms of disease vary predicably over time as exemplified by allergic rhinitis, arthritis, asthma, myocardial infarction, congestive hea...

Socioeconomic inequalities in prevalence, awareness, treatment and control of hypertension: evidence from the PERSIAN cohort study
CONCLUSION: The prevalence of HTN was higher among low-SES individuals, who also showed higher levels of awareness. However, treatment and control of HTN were more concentrated among those who had higher levels of SES, indicating that people at a higher risk of adverse event related to HTN (the low SES individuals) are not benefiting from the advantage of treatment and control of HTN. Such a gap between diagnosis (prevalence) and control (treatment and control) of HTN needs to be addressed by public health policymakers.PMID:35864469 | DOI:10.1186/s12889-022-13444-x

Assessing radiation-induced carotid vasculopathy using ultrasound after unilateral irradiation: a cross-sectional study
CONCLUSIONS: Increased CCA-IMT and SWV in some segments were seen in irradiated carotids. These alterations, even in young patients, mark the need for surveillance of radiation-induced vasculopathy.TRIAL REGISTRATION: clinicaltrials.gov ( https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04257968 ).PMID:35871069 | DOI:10.1186/s13014-022-02101-7

Linear Low-Intensity Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy as a Method for Penile Rehabilitation in Erectile Dysfunction Patients after Radical Prostatectomy: A Randomized, Single-Blinded, Sham-Controlled Clinical Trial
CONCLUSIONS: LI-LiESWT using the LSTC-ED® technique is a suitable and safe method for penile rehabilitation in patients with ED after bilateral NS RP, not only because of the vasculogenic effect of LI-LiESWT but also because of its neuroprotective and/or regenerative effects.PMID:35947945 | DOI:10.1159/000525973

Impact of the state of emergency on trends in the care of three major diseases at Showa University Hospital, Japan: a retrospective and descriptive study
CONCLUSIONS: This study showed a long-term decrease in cancer patient visits to Showa University Hospital since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic compared to the previous 3 years. It is also possible that medical care that would have been available may not have been provided due to the state of emergency, so it is necessary to follow up patients while keeping a close eye on measures other than infectious diseases.PMID:35968063 | PMC:PMC9351415 | DOI:10.15167/2421-4248/jpmh2022.63.2.2210
