School of Nursing, Guangzhou Medical University, Guangzhou, China.
Aim: This study examined the mediating role of resilience and the moderating role of grip strength (handgrip) in the relationship between mindfulness and non-restorative sleep (NRS) and evaluated the non-linear association between mindfulness and NRS among university freshmen students.
Design: This is a cross-sectional descriptive study.
Method: A total of 384 university students were recruited from Be Resilient to Nursing Career (BRNC) from two universities in June 2022.
Application value of two-dimensional ultrasound and shear-wave elastography parameters in evaluating sarcopenia with essential hypertension.

January 2025
Department of Ultrasonic Diagnosis, The First Hospital of China Medical University, Shenyang, China.
Background: Patients with essential hypertension have a high risk of muscle mass and strength decline. Ultrasound is a promising method for assessing sarcopenia. This study aimed to analyze the correlation between ultrasound and shear-wave elastography (SWE) features, and muscle mass, muscle strength, and physical performance, and to assess the clinical applicability of ultrasound in the diagnosis of sarcopenia in patients with essential hypertension.

Departamento de Fisioterapia, Universidade Federal dos Vales Do Jequitinhonha e, Diamantina, Minas Gerais, Brazil.
This study investigates the effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) with a 660-nm laser on nerve regeneration and muscle morphometry following median nerve axonotmesis in rats. Sixteen Wistar rats were divided into a control group and laser-treated group, with the latter receiving 10 applications of PBM (660 nm; 20 mW; 10 J/cm; 0.4 J; and 20 s) over 2 weeks.
