Dry needling in people with fibromyalgia: A randomized controlled trial of its effects on pain sensitivity and pain catastrophizing influence.
PM R

Predepartamental Unit of Medicine, Universitat Jaume I, Castellón de la Plana, Spain.
Background: Dry needling (DN) has been demonstrated as an effective treatment for patients with fibromyalgia (FM). It is crucial to take into consideration catastrophizing, a psychological construct that could potentially undermine the short-term efficacy of DN.
Objective: To analyze the effects of DN in the infraspinatus muscle on both local and remote pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) and its relationship with baseline levels of pain catastrophizing in patients with FM.
Exploring the association of adverse drug reactions with medication adherence and quality of life among hypertensive patients: a cross-sectional study.

Background: Effective hypertension management requires medication adherence to prevent complications. However, adverse drug reactions (ADRs) can undermine adherence and negatively affect patients' quality of life. Limited research has explored the association between ADRs, medication adherence, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in individuals with hypertension.

Urban green infrastructure (GI) plays a crucial role in improving air quality by removing pollutants and reducing emissions from structures. However, in Ethiopia, inadequate GI planning, largely due to limited awareness among planners and policymakers, can undermine the benefits of GI and worsen urban air quality issues. In this study, we demonstrate how the GI strategy approach can enhance air quality and assess the negative impacts of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) emitted by certain tree species in Ethiopia, using Hawassa as a case study.

Rapid warming and increasing disturbances in high-latitude regions have caused extensive vegetation shifts and uncertainty in future carbon budgets. Better predictions of vegetation dynamics and functions require characterizing resilience, which indicates the capability of an ecosystem to recover from perturbations. Here, using temporal autocorrelation of remotely sensed greenness, we quantify time-varying vegetation resilience during 2000-2019 across northwestern North American Arctic-boreal ecosystems.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of closed-incision negative-pressure wound therapy (NPWT) versus conventional care in promoting wound healing after Bascom's cleft lift surgery for complicated pilonidal sinus disease.
- After recruiting 118 patients, the results showed no significant difference in healing rates between the NPWT group and the control group at both the 2-week and 12-week follow-ups.
- Overall, NPWT did not improve postoperative healing compared to conventional methods, and the control group reported better self-esteem outcomes post-surgery.
