Background: For over 50 years, music therapy and breathing exercises have been widely utilized as interventions to help individuals cope with fatigue, stress and pain globally.
Aim: To analyse the effects of music and breathing exercises on anxiety and pain in patients undergoing coronary angiography.
Study Design: This is a single-blind, randomized controlled trial.
Background: Assessment of the athlete's heart is challenging because of a phenotypic overlap between reactive physiological adaptation and pathological remodelling. The potential value of myocardial deformation remains controversial in identifying early cardiomyopathy.
Aim: To identify the echocardiographic phenotype of athletes using advanced two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging, and to define predictive factors of subtle left ventricular systolic dysfunction.
The human gut microbiota is of increasing interest, with metagenomics a key tool for analyzing bacterial diversity and functionality in health and disease. Despite increasing efforts to expand microbial gene catalogs and an increasing number of metagenome-assembled genomes, there have been few pan-metagenomic association studies and in-depth functional analyses across different geographies and diseases. Here, we explored 6014 human gut metagenome samples across 19 countries and 23 diseases by performing compositional, functional cluster, and integrative analyses.

- About 5% of Wilms tumors involve vascular extension, requiring a complex surgical approach that influences management but not prognosis.
- A study of 69 pediatric patients with Wilms tumors revealed significant findings, including a 37.5% rate of right atrial extension and complications like pulmonary embolism.
- Despite challenges, the use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy led to a high overall survival rate of 89%, though postoperative renal insufficiency was identified as a risk factor for reduced survival.
