Background: Central venous access devices (CVAD) are widely used in patient care, providing an essential, reliable pathway for patients to receive chemotherapy, long-term infusions, and nutritional support. However, a system of exercise management has not been developed in patients with CVAD.
Purpose: To evaluate and summarize the evidence for management exercise in patients with CVAD and provide guidance for clinical practice.
Background: Health literacy (HL) is a critical determinant of health outcomes. Improving HL stands as one of the most essential, cost-effective, and efficacious strategies for enhancing the overall health of the population. This study aims to analyze the status of HL among urban and rural residents in Anhui Province, explore the associated factors, and provide a scientific basis for the formulation of targeted health education and promotion strategies.

Methods: NOLUS has previously been established as an algorithm: NOLUS (0-100) = - 0.45 × ER(%) - 0.
Background: Informal caregivers of individuals with acquired brain injury (ABI) often lack adequate preparedness for caregiving. Caregiver burden may reduce preparedness, with anxiety potentially mediating this relationship. However, these associations remain unclear.

There remains a notable knowledge gap regarding the ecological effects of altered precipitation on crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants and their interactions with other photosynthetic types. This study investigated the response of the typical obligate CAM plant Orostachys fimbriata to extended watering intervals (WI4-WI8) and various competitive patterns (M-M) with the C grass Melilotus officinalis and the C grass Setaria viridis through greenhouse experiments.
