Positive dimensions of mental health are strong protective factors against physical and mental illness in general population. A cross-sectional study including a randomly selected sample of 141 outpatients was performed to explore differences in patients' self-reported importance of elements of health and subjective experiences of health related to sociodemographic background variables. The examination of differences in self-reported importance of elements of health showed differences regarding gender, and the analyses of subjectively experienced health showed differences regarding age and diagnosis. Clinical interventions aiming at strengthening positive dimensions of health are required in community mental health services to meet the patients' individual needs of enhanced health.

Despite known gender/sex differences in the prevalence of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), potential differences in the associations among PTSD symptoms between men and women in the early post-trauma period are not well-characterized. This study utilized network analysis to assess potential differences in the associations among PTSD symptom clusters between men and women during the early post-trauma period. We included = 475 participants (57.

Prolonged gaming time, along with increased impulsivity-a key element of poor self-regulation-has been identified as linked to gaming disorder. Despite existing studies in this field, the relationship between impulsivity and gaming time remains poorly understood. The present study explored the connections between impulsivity, measured both by self-report and behavioral assessments, gaming time and gaming disorder within a cohort of 82 participants.

Current conventional wound dressings used for wound healing are often characterized by restricted bioactivity and devoid of multifunctionality resulting in suboptimal treatment and prolonged healing. Despite recent advances, the simultaneous incorporation of excellent flexibility, good mechanical performance, self-healing, bioactivity, and adhesion properties into the dressings without complicating their efficacy while maintaining simple synthesis remains a grand challenge. Herein, we effectively synthesized hybrid hydrogels of cellulose nanofiber (CNF), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and curcumin-modified silver nanoparticles (cAg) through a one-step synthesis method based on hydrogen bonds, dynamic boronic ester bonds, and coordinate covalent bonds.

The management of wounds infected with drug-resistant bacteria represents a significant challenge to public health globally. Nanotechnology-functionalized photothermal hydrogel with good thermal stability, biocompatibility and tissue adhesion exhibits great potential in treating these infected wounds. Herein, a novel photothermal hydrogel (mCS-Cu-Ser) was prepared through in situ mineralization in the hydrogel networks and ion cross-linking driven by copper ions (∼3 mM).

Background: Among cardiovascular diseases, adult patients with congenital heart disease represent a population that has been continuously increasing, which is mainly due to improvement of the pathophysiological framing, including the development of surgical and reanimation techniques. However, approximately 20% of these patients will require surgery in adulthood and 40% of these cases will necessitate reintervention for residual defects or sequelae of childhood surgery. In this field, cardiac rehabilitation (CR) in the postsurgical phase has an important impact on the patient by improving psychophysical and clinical recovery in reducing fatigue and dyspnea to ultimately increase survival.
