Article Synopsis
- A study investigated the effects of oral nutritional supplementation (ONS) with and without exercise (EX) on muscle mass and physical function in chronic kidney disease patients over six months.
- Patients were divided into two groups: one received only ONS while the other received ONS and exercise, with improvements noted in physical functions like gait speed and handgrip strength in both groups.
- Although both groups showed better physical function, neither group experienced significant improvements in muscle mass quantity or quality, though the ONS + EX group had larger effect sizes in certain physical tests.
Unlabelled: A proof-of-concept study using thrombolysis with catheter-directed tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) and pulmonary angiography imaging was performed to visualize perfusion deficits and reperfusion/therapeutic effects of tPA.
Design: A prospective, open-label, compassionate study. Descriptive statistics were presented for categorical variables and as means with sds for continuous variables.
