Article Synopsis
- This observational study examined the prevalence of diastasis recti abdominis (DRA) in men, identifying risk factors and potential adverse outcomes while exploring diagnostic criteria.
- A total of 1,575 men participated, and the study revealed a DRA prevalence of 29.78% using an interrectus distance (IRD) > 2 cm, which decreased to 10.16% with an IRD > 3 cm.
- Key influencing factors included age, BMI, smoking, and exercise, while no strong connections were found between DRA and abdominal muscle function or quality of life, although hernias were significant when using the > 3 cm criterion.
Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the prevalence of diastasis recti abdominis (DRA) among 1,000 postpartum women over 30 years, finding significant occurrence especially with an inter-recti distance (IRD) greater than 2 cm (36% at 3 years postpartum).
- Key risk factors identified for DRA included higher body mass index (BMI), greater number of pregnancies, having twins, and diabetes, affecting different time points postpartum (e.g., BMI was significant at 10 years).
- The results suggest a need to refine diagnostic criteria for DRA to minimize unnecessary diagnoses and improve early intervention strategies for affected women.
Introduction And Hypothesis: The objective was to investigate whether diastasis recti abdominis (DRA) can cause adverse outcomes for different long-term postpartum women.
Methods: We recruited 437 long-term postpartum women at five different time points (3, 5, 10, 20, and 30 years postpartum respectively). Inter-recti distance (IRD) and linea alba or umbilical hernia were measured by ultrasound.
Purpose: In response to the growing challenges posed by an aging society, a telemedicine system was developed specifically for older adults postoperative patients, and its effectiveness was thoroughly investigated.
Methods: Between May 2020 and May 2022, a total of 88 older adults postoperative patients were enrolled and randomly allocated into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group received telemedicine services after discharge, while the control group received conventional medical services following the traditional protocol.
For the digestive system, there exists one common malignant tumor, known as gastric cancer. It is the third most prevalent type of tumor among different tumors worldwide. It has been reported that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), participate in various biological processes of gastric cancer.

Evidence has showed that health literacy is associated with health outcomes. However, limited studies explore the underlying mechanism between health literacy and health outcomes.

However, many studies have shown that improper restraint can lead to many adverse outcomes. Nursing staff are the main practitioners of physical restraint in nursing homes and play an important role in restraint decision-making and management.

Moreover, the relationships between DRA and lower back pain, pelvic floor function and quality of life were also analysed.
Background: Diastasis recti abdominis is a separation of the abdominal muscles at the linea alba.

Objective: To explore the significance of damage control surgery (DCS) in the treatments of severe pancreaticoduodenal injuries.
Methods: Clinical data of 19 patients with severe pancreaticoduodenal injuries managed with DCS approach in Wenzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine and the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical College from March 2005 to January 2013 were analyzed retrospectively.
Results: Three cases were cured after damage control operation and postoperative ICU resuscitation treatment.

Objective: To study the effect of Shenfu injection (SF) treating cancer-related fatigue (CRF) of the patients with advanced carcinoma.
Method: From September 2005 to June 2009, 113 patients with advanced carcinoma who was treated in our department were selected, and were divided into test group and control group. The test group was treated with SF and common method, while the control group only was treated with common method.
