Diagnostic value of multimodal ultrasound for breast cancer and prediction of sentinel lymph node metastases.

Background: Sentinel lymph node metastasis (SLNM) is a critical factor in the prognosis and treatment planning for breast cancer (BC), as it indicates the potential spread of cancer to other parts of the body. The accurate prediction and diagnosis of SLNM are essential for improving clinical outcomes and guiding treatment decisions.

Objective: This study aimed to construct a Lasso regression model by integrating multimodal ultrasound (US) techniques, including US, shear wave elastography (SWE), and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), to improve the predictive accuracy of sentinel lymph node metastasis in breast cancer and provide more precise guidance for clinical treatment.

Morphological and Functional Changes of the Tibialis Anterior Muscle After Combined Mirror Visual Feedback and Electromyographic Biofeedback in Poststroke Patients: A Randomized Trial.

Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate the morphological and functional changes of the tibialis anterior muscle after mirror visual feedback combined with electromyographic biofeedback in poststroke patients.

Design: A total of 46 poststroke patients were randomly divided into three groups: a mirror visual feedback + electromyographic biofeedback group, a mirror visual feedback group, and a control group. The mirror visual feedback + electromyographic biofeedback group was treated with both mirror visual feedback and electromyographic biofeedback, and the mirror visual feedback group was treated with mirror visual feedback alone.
