Toward structured abdominal examination training using augmented reality.
Int J Comput Assist Radiol Surg
January 2025
Faculty of Computer Science and Research Campus STIMULATE, Otto-von-Guericke University of Magdeburg, Magdeburg, Germany.
Purpose: Structured abdominal examination is an essential part of the medical curriculum and surgical training, requiring a blend of theory and practice from trainees. Current training methods, however, often do not provide adequate engagement, fail to address individual learning needs or do not cover rare diseases.
Methods: In this work, an application for structured Abdominal Examination Training using Augmented Reality (AETAR) is presented.
Functional fitness and psychological well-being in older adults.
BMC Geriatr
January 2025
Institute of Health Promotion and Sport Sciences, Faculty of Education and Psychology, ELTE Eötvös Loránd University, Bogdánfy St. 12, Budapest, H-1117, Hungary.
Background: Physical fitness and functioning are related to better mental health in older age. However, which fitness components (body composition, strength, flexibility, coordination, and endurance) are more closely related to psychological well-being (PWB) is unclear.
Methods: This research examined how body mass index (BMI) and six indices of functional fitness (i.
Validity and reliability of the Simple Motor Competence-check for Kids (SMC-Kids).
J Sci Med Sport
December 2024
Faculty of Education, University of the Ryukyus, Japan.
Objectives: To examine the validity and reliability of the Simple Motor Competence-check for Kids (SMC-Kids), which was developed to assess motor development in preschool children.
Design: A cross-sectional and repeated-measures design.
Methods: To assess validity, 71 children aged 4-6 years completed the Test of Gross Motor Development-3 (TGMD-3) and SMC-Kids (10 m shuttle run and paper ball throw).
Prolactin in sleep and EEG regulation: new mechanisms and sleep-related brain targets complement classical data.
Neurosci Biobehav Rev
January 2025
Laboratory of Molecular and Systems Neurobiology, Department of Physiology and Neurobiology, Eötvös Loránd University.
The role of prolactin in sleep regulation has been the subject of extensive research over the past 50 years, resulting in the identification of multiple, disparate functions for the hormone. Prolactin demonstrated a characteristic circadian release pattern with elevation during dark and diminution during light. High prolactin levels were linked to non-rapid eye movement sleep and electroencephalogram delta activity in humans.

Curr Pain Headache Rep
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology, Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center Shreveport, Shreveport, LA, 71103, USA.
Purpose Of Review: Effective pain management in cardiac surgery presents as a continuous challenge related to the intensity of postoperative pain and reliance on opioid therapy. The dependance of opioid-based therapies is concerning, as these therapies carry risk future addiction and potential severe side effects. The transversus thoracic plane block (TTPB) has emerged as a promising regional anesthesia technique that blocks the anterior branches of the intercostal nerves in the chest wall, potentially providing improved analgesia for cardiac surgery patients.
