Background: Medications for opioid use disorder (MOUDs), including methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone, are associated with lower death rates and improved quality of life for people in recovery from opioid use disorder (OUD). Less is known about each MOUD modality's association with treatment retention and the contribution of behavioral health therapy (BHT). The objectives of the current study were to estimate the association between MOUD type and treatment retention and determine whether BHT was associated with length of time retained.

Aerobic and resistance exercise during and after cancer treatment are important for health-related outcomes, however treatment-specific barriers may inhibit adherence. We explored the effect of lower-frequency exercise training on fitness, body composition, and metabolic markers (i.e.

Background: Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is commonly used to assess fat-free mass (FFM) and fat mass (FM) in breast cancer patients. However, because of the prevalence of overweight, obesity and variable hydration status in these patients, assumptions for existing prediction equations developed in healthy adults may be violated, resulting in inaccurate body composition assessment.

Methods: We measured whole-body FFM using single-frequency BIA (50 kHz) and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in 48 patients undergoing treatment for breast cancer.
