Background: This study investigated the effectiveness of makeup camouflage procedures for patients who have experienced social problems because undesirable ecchymoses and edemas after aesthetic surgery, The impacts of camouflage procedures for such patients also were studied.
Methods: For this study, 46 rhinoplasty patients were divided into two groups: postoperative camouflage makeup was used for 23 patients, whereas the other 23 patients were assessed as the control group, Additionally, 18 blepharoplasty patients also were divided into two similar camouflage and control groups.
Results: The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory test given to the patients postoperatively indicated that postoperative makeup provided positive effects for patients.
Conclusion: The current clinical study investigated the effects of cosmetics on the psychological state of patients during the postoperative period and included the application of camouflage makeup for postrhinoplasty and postblepharoplasty patients with edemas and ecchymoses. Psychologically, the patients felt better.

Background And Hypothesis: Unlike X-linked or autosomal recessive Alport Syndrome, no clear genotype/phenotype correlation has yet been demonstrated in patients carrying a single variant of COL4A3 or COL4A4.
Methods: We carried out a multicenter retrospective study to assess the risk factors involved in renal survival in patients presenting a single pathogenic variant on COL4A3 or COL4A4.
Results: 97 patients presenting a single pathogenic variant of COL4A3 or COL4A4 were included.

Background: How gait changes during the early stages of stoke rehabilitation, and which patient characteristics are associated with these changes is still largely unknown.
Objective: he first objective was to describe the changes in gait during stroke rehabilitation. Secondly, we determined how various patient characteristics were associated with the rate of change of gait over time.

Background: To determine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a 6-month tailored non-linear progressive physical activity intervention (PAI) for lymphoma patients undergoing chemotherapy.
Methods: Patients newly diagnosed with lymphoma (non-Hodgkin (NHL) or Hodgkin (HL)) were randomized into the PAI or healthy living intervention (HLI) control (2:1). Feasibility was assessed by examining accrual, adherence, and retention rates.

Background: Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) are both effective in treating borderline personality disorder (BPD). Impulsivity and impaired decision-making are prominent features of BPD, and therapeutic interventions targeting these symptoms could lead to significant improvements.
Objective/hypothesis: We hypothesized that intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS), a modified rTMS protocol that targets the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, would enhance the therapeutic effects of DBT, leading to greater improvements in impulsivity and decision-making compared with sham stimulation.
