Surgical revascularisation in an adult with coarctation of the aorta.

One of the most common congenital cardiac anomalies is It accounts for 4%-6% of all congenital heart defects. A CoA case surviving into adulthood may result in hypertension, weak femoral pulse, limb and bowel ischaemia and heart failure. A man in his early 20s presented with severe lower limb and abdominal pain with long-standing hypertension, refractory to antihypertensives.

Sleep quality and coping styles among nurses working in tertiary cancer institutions: a mixed-method study.

Introduction: Providing nursing care is a challenging job which may lead to serious effects on sleep quality, thereby leading to lower work productivity and reduced job satisfaction. Therefore, it becomes increasingly important to adopt effective and adaptive coping strategies to deal with day-to-day stress and to improve sleep.

Aim: This study aimed to assess the sleep quality of nurses and the coping styles employed by them to deal with the stressors at the workplace.

Implementing an inclusive digital health ecosystem for healthy aging: a case study on project SingaporeWALK.

Objective: To pilot a digital health technologies ecosystem known as project SingaporeWALK (earables and pps for ommunity iving and nowledge) that build capacity in older adults, senior center managers, health coaches, and caregivers in using health technologies (eg, wearables, apps, exergames) collaboratively in a gamified way for active aging.

Materials And Methods: The SingaporeWALK ecosystem was set up through 3 initiatives: (1) co-developing technologies with stakeholders; (2) raising digital literacy and capacity building; and (3) cultivating community and intergenerational bonding for active aging through gamified technology use.

Results: Significant improvements in older adults' self-reported physical and mental health post-intervention were observed.

T Clusters Are More Sensitive Than Mean T Change to Detect Early and Longitudinal Changes in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstructed and Healthy Knees.

Background: Post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) often follows anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), leading to early cartilage degradation. Change in mean T fails to capture subject-specific spatial-temporal variations, highlighting the need for robust quantitative methods for early PTOA detection and monitoring.

Purpose/hypothesis: Develop and apply 3D T cluster analysis to ACLR and healthy knees over 2.

Paternal impact on the developmental programming of sexual dimorphism.

Sexual dimorphism involves distinct anatomical, physiological, behavioral, and developmental differences between males and females of the same species, influenced by factors prior to conception and during early development. These sex-specific traits contribute to varied phenotypes and individual disease risks within and across generations and understanding them is essential in mammalian studies. Hormones, sex chromosomes, and imprinted genes drive this dimorphism, with over half of quantitative traits in wildtype mice showing sex-based variation.
